Burglars.
Two winters ago burglars were so com-
mon in this city that we were at a loss to
find proper headings for the cases as we
wrote them up for publication. The
midnight tax gatherers have commenced
their winter's work in good earnest and
it would be well to have some active
steps taken to put a stop to these burglars
before they reap too great a harvest. About
tkree feet of hemp judiciously used would
stop them.

Xotes or the Storm-
The storm seems to have been very
general along the coast. At Cape Look
out it was raining rery hard and the wind
was blowing at from fifty to sixty miles an
hour. At Smithville tbe maximum
velocity of the wind was forty-eight miles
an hour. All tbe pilot boats are in, and
the tugs are Abcberwd oot in the stream.
No damage is reported. The wind was
at its highest here at twelve o'clock to
day. Many trees and fences have been
blown down, but no damage that we hive
he.ird of, other ti an the reports in this
issue oCthe Review.
The storm js still raging, notwith
standing the fact that the danger signal
has been hmlttl down aid the off shore
signal hoisted.
The in cotnir g tide, driven by a pretty
severe wind from the south west, swelled
to an unumil height this mon iug and
the waves created by the ga!o were al
most leaping over the wharf. at Market
Dock.
Two raft loa Is of wo'k! were blown to
.pieces in the river this mt.roiug near the
foot of Orange street, and the driftwood
went floating up the stream Numerous
small boats manned bycoloreJ individuals,
regardless of the wind and waves put
out from shore and reaped quite
a harvest for a winter's store bypickiog up
the numerous sticks that were floating by
a couple of Norwegian sailors in a sort
of life boat, sharp at both ends, with a
mall mainsail and j b for sails, we-o the
object of many eyes fiom ths toot of
Market street this morning s they were
vainly trying to tack and beat down the
river against wind and tide. At times it
seemed as if the boat would capsize every
minute, but the plucky Norwegians stil
maintained their course until their jib
was carried away, when in trying to rig
up their jib again the boat was, turned
round and when last seen by us she was
scudding away before the wind in the di
rection of Point Peter at the rate of ten
miles an hour.
Unpleasant Rumor.
There was a painful rumor afloat upon
tho street to-day that Captain Oliver and
his noble ship, the Raleigh, of.the Balti
more and Wilmington Steamship Line,
had gone down at sea, during the recent
gale off this coast. Upon hearing the
rucsor we immediately repaired to head
quarters at Captain A. D. Cazaux's
office and made inquiry of that gentlemen
if there was any truth in the report. We
were assured by Captain C. that there
was no foundation for the report other
than there had been a storm and that the
steamer was due here to-day. Captain
Cazaux's office is in direct communication
with the signal office bnilding by means
of a telephone and the moment any news
of such a character is received Captain
Cazaux would be informed of the fact.
A reporter of the Beticw in making his
daily rounds in search of news items
visited tha signal office to ascertain if pos
sible if there jvere any disasters reported
by the storm and found out that nothing
has yet been' learned relative to the re
cent gale beyond what is elsewhere re
ported in these columns.
A Cotton Thief Abroad.
Laet Friday night a bale of cotton was
stolen from Messrs. Woody & Currie's
warehouse, foot of Ann street, of which
no trace has yet been found, and last
night another bale was stolen. The fact
was duly reported and soon after
Jim Clark, colored, (Lemonade Jim)
appeared at the City Hall and told
Capt. Brock that small flat belonging to
him, which was last night tied up at the
foot of Ann street, was found by him this
morning down by the Burnt Mill.partially
sunk, and with a bale of cotton in it,
which was afterwards identified by Messrs.
Woody & Carrie as theirs. No clue.

EIvI Johnson
again. A Desperate
...,- i,i, .-rA i
lptlires his Wife JUld
Deed. He capt
carries her off to lhe Swamps.
The outlaw, Elvi Johnson, together
with Simon Haggett, who killed the col
ored man, Boyd, in this city some months
ago, and a tall mulatto fellow, said to be
from South Carolina, all heavily armed,
entered Ida Mack's house, on ths corner
of Third and Harnett streets, last night
about 7 o'clock, where Johnson's wife
happened to be at the time. Immediate
ly upon entering, Johnson seized his wife
and lifting heron his shoulder said, ' come
along, darling, you are mint'." Tha
woman resisted ah she could, at the same
time screaming aad yelling for help as
hard as she could. The outlaw attempt
ed to quiet his wife by assuring her that
no harm would coma to her. Johnson
then made his way out, followed closely
by his brigand companions, in the direc
tion of the river, which it is supposed he
crossed- in the vicinity of Hilton,
to the dense swamDo bevoadl.
There is a rumor on the streets to-day
that Johnson, after leaving the house
above mentioned, murdered his wifa by
cutting her throat. But we have been un
able to ascertain anything definite in re
gard to this last act.
The villain stated to those who were
present last night that he intended return
ing to-night for his little two year old child
which was left in charge for the time beinr
of his wife's mother. Thi? afternoon the
mother-in-law of Johnson made applica.
tion at the police headquarters for protec"
tion, asserting that : she was afraid that
"JElvi, would return to-nigh: and kill both
her and the child.
Upon entering the house last nigh t
where he captured his wife, the outlaw
was heard to say to his companions "keep
your guns ready for action." Each man
was armed with a rifle and had bayonets
fixed, besides having several pistols stick
ing in their belts.
Application was made "yesterday we
understand . to a Justice of the Peace in
this city tojiave a peace warrant issued
against Haggett, but the Magistrate de
clined owing to the fact that a warrant
had already , been .issued against this
