Reported captured and Killed. There is a report in circulation in this city to the effect that the desperado John son was captured and subsequently killed near Conwayboro, S. C. on Tuesday ; it runs as follows : Johnson was surrounded and ordered to surrender, which he did, and shortly after seized a favorable oppor tunity to attack his guard ajid wrench his gun from him and then tooK to bis heels. One of his captors saw the struggle from a distance between Johnson and the guard and hastened to them', but the outlaw had gotten some little distance off when he was shot down in hist tracks. We give this only as a rumor and do not vouch' for its correctness..

' Total valua. Death of a Young Wiluilnc Ionian. It is with deep regret that we fgel oalled upon to announce to-day the death of one of ouTxfdmejcilfzeiiS a young Wilmins- tonian, who had scarcely reached the prime of life, as regards age, ere he was called away, but who,-so iar as usefulness is concerned, bad log since attained the vigor of his manhood. . The sad intelli gence was received here this morning by telegram of the death in Savannah -at 9 o'clock this morning of Richard Bradley, Jr., in the thirty-sixth year of his age. The deceased was a son of M. Richard Bradley, formerly of this city, but now nd foif many years past a resident cf Savannah Georgia, . !1 During the first three years of the 'war Richard Bradley, Jr. f disted in the eause of his country and served his own native State aa a private, in the battery of ar tillery which was originally organized by Col. Robt. II. Cowan, but afterwards known as Moore's battery, after the. first named gentleman was promoted to a Colonelcy in the Infantry. During the last year of the war Mr. Bradley received the appointment from Governor Van ;e as private secretary to his Excellency, and in that capacity was serving at the time of the surrender, and when hostilities were said to have ceased. We understand that the remains will reach here to-morrow morning, and that the last sad rites will be performed to morrow morning at 11 q'clock at St. Jame's Church. Harbor Master's Report.
