Lewis Green, colored, arrested on yes
terday morning at 5 o'clock, for disorderly
- . ' . m- -m T TT fill
conduct in the Market Jiouse. I his was
au aggravated case, the testimony of three
witnesses, and tho policeman who made
the arrest, showing that his conduct was
very boistr rous. accompanied by threats
of sliooting and cutting. Lewis it seems
attends at one of the easing booths in the
western end of the market. On the
-morning in question the proprietor had
been aroused at his sleeping apartment to
serve an early break fast.as was his wont,
for parties who were to take the train; he
told them "o go to his eating booth and
Lewis Green, his clerk would serve them
Upon going there and arousing Lewis, he
gave vent to all of the devilish feelings
within , him, threatening to cut thei
entrails out, shoot them, and walking up
to one of the parties, shook his fist in his
face and called him a d- d 1 r. The
policeman, G. W. W. Davis, heard the
noise a block off, and went there and made
the arrest.
The evidence was lurther to the fact
that Lewis is one of the worst boys in
town, giving the policomen a great deal
of trouble, and in some instances defying
them. lid is an old offender. Sentenced
by . the court to be confined on bread
and water until Jan. 3.
Henry Hall, charged with the stealing
of cotton from the barque North Carolina.
Continued for defendant until to-morrow.
Store Robbery.
The grocery store of Mr. C. Wcssell,on
North Water street, was entered last
nigHt, and robbed of $100 worth of gro
ceries and other articles, together with
about ,25 or 30, in small change, which
was left in the money drawer last night,
besides a good deal of liquor, the exact
quantity of which Mr. Wcssell i3 unable
as yet to determine.
Among the articles purloined was a
double case silver watch, worth about ten
or twelve dollars.
The thief, whoever he was, did not con
fine hinself to any one particular article
of goods' or line of goods as he helped
himself quite freely to unbleached honu
'spun, ready made clothing, shirts and un
dershirts, cigars, tobacco, whiskey, sugar
and coffee. No doubt, Christmas was in
the rogue's mind's eye, - and he probably
consoled himself with the thought that he
would have one' jolly good Christmas, if I
. i ' i- i l 1 i f
he never hau anotner, or u ne nau 10
spend the balance ' of his Christmases
in the penitentiary to pay fur it.
.The entrance was effected, J t is sup
posed, through. the back door of the store.
Thy dour, 'however was very securely
fastened by Mr. Wesseli last night with
one iron and one wooden bar in addition
to a latch with a 'pin run through it. But
unfortunately for: Mr. AVessell, he cut too
large a hole near il-te bottom of the door
for the ingress and egress of his favorite
Tom cat, and it , is supposed that the
robber ran his hand through thbholo and
with the fiid of a crooked stick removed,
the fastenings to the door and then walked
riaht in and helped -himself, having 'done
which, it is thought 'that he walked right
out again, without 'even stopping to re
place the fastenings
