But, filled with awful fear, awake from dreams In which they heard the agonizing screams Of dying negroes or of Union men. Slow starving in some Southern prison-pen.

An Adroit Game ol Two SbarpervA German Bank the Victim. Baltimore American. The German Savings Bank, formerly ocated at the corner of Baltimore and Pine streets, but which a couple of months ago moved into fine new quar ters on Baltimore street near Pearl, was on Wednesday victimized by two sharpers, who played a somewhat hovel and singularly successful game on the cashier. It was about 1 o'clock, and the cashier, Mr. Robert M. ttother, was alone in the bank, his assistantimving gone home to dinner. Two well-dressed men drove up to the bank, and in a business-like way one of them jumped from the carriage, stepped briskly into the bank, threw down $50 on the coun ter, and said to the cashier: "There's a gentleman out there in the carriage who wants to make a deposit for his niece, lfie cashier, with the money before his eyes on the counter, could not for a moment suspect that anything was wrong, and without a thought pass ed out of the bank, and stepping down to the carriage, engaged in conversa tion with the man in it in regard to the deposit for his niece. While the cashier was thus occupied the hrst comer, who had followed the cashier to the door when he came out, stepped in a care- ess and unconcerned way back into the bank, without exciting in the least the cashier's suspicions. Passing out of view from the point where the cashier stood, the sharper stepped be hind the desk and coolly helped himself to the contents of three of the pigeon holes, all of which contained bank notes. A letter-carrier happened to step in while the shaper was helping himself, but taking it for granted that the man was a bank official or an em ploye, suspected nothing, and passed out. Seeing that the cashier was finish ing his conversation with his confede rate, the thief came out to the door of the bank in his cool way, passed the cashier on the steps of the bank, step ped into the carriage, and both men drove off out west Baltimore street at rattling speed. The cashier looked after them for a moment, wondered at their haste, and suddenly bethought himself that something might be wrong. flurrying into the bank, the hist thing hat . attracted his attention was the roll of bills anaouL.ting to fifty dollars, which the sharpers had left on the counter. Going behind the counter, the cashier saw at once that the three pigeon-holes had been emptied of their contents, and that the two sharpers, by ineir little game, had victimized the bank to the tune of $1,350. The bank officials were not particularly anxious to rehearse the details of the affair last night. The case is, t the hands ci the police, GENERAL STATE EXPENSE".

Worth's Speech at ConcjQfd, For the last three months of the year 18aa.ajadfor the years 1S69 and ?0, dur ing vyhicU time ' the Republicans had supreme control in. all departments of State and county goverhment, they collected from the people $2,080,942.52. How did they apply ity Who can an. swer He would challenge any Repub lican m the State to how a brick that was laid for an asylum or where a spadeful of dirt had been removed witn a smgie aoiiar 01 mat vast sum Which they had collected from the hon est tax-payers of the gtatf.

Another Outrage by a Revcune Offi cer While in Albemarle this week we heard of a jnost infamous outrage, com mitted upon a minister of the Metho dist Church, who is well known and beloved throughout the bounds of the North Carolina Conference, by an in-, ternal revenue officer one of those in famous scoundrels who, having sold their character and principles for offi cial preferment, and thereby-having lost the respect of all decent men, have become utterly shameless, and are capa ble of committing almost any kind of outrage. The facts of the case referred to are these : Sometime ago, during a protracted meeting in the Methodist church at Albemarle, the pastor, Rev. C. M. Pepper, was several times an noyed by unbecoming conduct by one Burnes, a revenue officer, stationed at Albemarle. Finally the pastor took oc casion to reprimand Burnes for his misconduct, but without, calling any name. This was several months ago, and it is well known that Burnes knew at the time that the minister re referred to him, but he-did nothing at all at the time about the rmatter." On Saturday evening, September 4th, Mr. Pepper, while conversing with some one on the streets, was approach ed by Burnes and asked whether the remarks made on the above mentioned occasion referred to him. Being an swered in the affirmative, Burnes said: "You are a God-damned rascal." Mr. P. quietly remarked that such language did not hurt him, whereupon the cow ardly officer struck him upon the cheek, with the palm of his hand, asking at the same time whether that (meaning the blow) would hurt him. He was im mediately seized by two parties who were present, and no further difficulty occurred at that time, although he muttered something about a pistol. A warrant was soon issued, and Burnes was carried before Esquires Green and Atkins. On trial he used yery insulting language, among other things calling Mr. P. a "damned liar," but he submitted and was fined a small amount for contempt of court. After wards he followed Mr. P. and cursed him shamefully. Burnes appealed from the magis trates' decision to the Superior Court, and his case came up on last Tuesday, when, although he was in town, he treated the court with utter contempt, failing to put in his appearance when called, thus forfeiting his bond of $200. (We learn that he gave as his excuse for not being present when his case was called, that he was putting on a clean shirt, and the judge, who is a Re publican, excused him.) We do not know what final decision was reached in the case, but all that was necessary for Burnes to do to get the case removed to the Federal Court, which would be equivalent to an acquittal, would be to make an affidavit that the outrage was committed in the discharge of his official duty, which, we suppose, he would not hesitate to da We do not wish to be understood is denouncing all persons, engaged in the revenue business we suppose, of course, there are some gentlemen among them But generally they are the very scum of creation, the worst characters who can. be picked up by the infamous Radical party with which to afflict our people, xt is not so much that the people wish to evade the pay ment of the internal revenue taxes as it is that they object to having business relations with 8uoh men as do the busi ness for the department, and all persons who are so afflicted no doubt congratu late themselves upon the relief which Hanoook s election will bring them, in having gentlemen to deal with. Another KJuslnfj Crcyman. BRANCHYliS, J., Sept. 27.- Rev. Rev. Theodore IX Frazee, aged 30, a Methodist clergyman of this place and editor of a religious paper published at Newark, N. Jnas just been arrested at the instance of Mr, Arthur HastetU a member of his church, charged with ia sulting Mrs. Hasted. Hr, Hasted al leges that Frazee came to his house on Monday last, ted, to kiss his wife, when sm effc the room. The divine called again later, and finding Mrs. Hasted,, who is but 20 years of age, alone renewed his advances and nnaiiy tried to carry out his designs by force. The lady screamed, and Frazee left the house at once, Mrs. Hasted told her husband, and when he spoke to Mr Frazee with regard to the matter the minister laughed in his face, and told him no one would believe the story. Public opinion as to the guilt of the minister is greatly divided, ureac ex citement prevails. An Almost Fatal Cave ef Fatins; StatesvIIle "Landmark.
