We clip from the New York Herald uf the 6th int. a refutation of the statement made to that paper by a Nor folk, Va , correspondent , relative to the dlnchxm of MtmAn. from a vtSRel at quarantine at Smithville, as bHug sen North by our city authorities. As will be seen,the first statement fiorn this city is made by the regul r corres pondent of the Herald while the secom is made by Dr. J. U. Walker, Superin. Undent of Health , - Wilmingtow. N O., Anz 5, 1879. The report sent to the Herald iroin Norfolk in regard to the seamen a.leged to have been discharged from quarantine here and hurried north by our authorities hftfl dnriA inmatira to this CltV. i be schooner E S. PwellJ not the Bri ish bark L.T. Oregon, arrived from Navassa Island, a Derfectlv health v Dort. on the Uth of July, after a voyage ot tweniy- w t w m w tive days. She brought a clear and clean bill of health, but was nevertheless quar aitined five days and thoroughly furaU ated. She was loaded with phosphates, the ammonia in which is itself a goed disinfectant. After being quarantined she went to the Navasea Works, above the city, and there discharged her cargo at the hands of her crew. The time of the crew had expired, and aa they wanted to be discharged they were paid ou , and allowed to leave, but in an excess of caution were not allowed to come to the city. The Pvwell is now in the river below the city, with her captain, male and stew ard on board, and has not bad a day's sickness while here. These facta were telegraphed to the Nortoik autnor ities on Saturday nigbt in response to inaumes from them, and were doubtless exaggerated by them iu their dread ot iu lection. Wilmikotom, N. C. Aug. 5, 1879. To tub Editor of thb Herald : Tne despatch in the Herald from Nor folk, dated August 8, about toe discharge of sailors from a yellow lever vessel at mis port, is untrue. No vesei;has arrived at the Quarantine station or in Wilmington with fever on board. The crew alluded to was from the schooner E. S. Powell, from Navassa Island, loaded with phosphate, with a clean bill or health and no sickness on board since sailing. She arrived here on the 16th of July, after a passage of twenty-fi e da.' s. a d as at Quarantine, where she was disinfected, and she was unloaded three mile above the city. 1 be crew demanded to be and were discharged, therefore, with safety.

The season for making tomato pickles is at hand, and the following recipe may therefore not be out of place: Take the small sized round tomatoes, those which are called "volunteers;" wash thoroughly and dry; take a knitting needle and pass it once or twice throvgh each tomato; got a large jar and put in a layer of salt on bottom, then Uyers of tomatoes and salt until the jar is full; let them remain fer a week. To each gallon of tomatoes take 4 ounces of ground pepper, 1 ounce and 12 small onions which have been i i i Biiced. late eut tomatoes .irom jar, v. ipe them and replace them again in the jar, putting in the above ingredients as layeis of tomatoes are made.

The defendant pouied up three sil ver hif-dollais aud turned his back on the A case of assault was disposed of by imposing a fine of $5 which the defendant walked up to the Captain's office and seU tied immediately. Julius Jackson, Thomas TitJ and John Gurley, three notorious little colored va grants, were sent to the lock-up for ten days to feast on bread and water duribg the time of their incarceration. Wm. Borden, Samuel Stokes and Frank Farrinfrow, who were arrested last night for sleeging in the streets, and fallidg to givo a satisfactory account of themsehes, were sent below for five days. This fin ished the business on the docket and the Court adjourned fur the day. ? Another Burglary, Early Sunday morning; la t the resi- donce of a gentleman living on the corner of Fourth and Bed Orcss streets, was burglariously entered and robbed ot $21. The thieves entered through a door which was opeh.leadin out on a piazsa enclosed by lattice work. They took the gentle man's pants off a chair, searched his pockets and discovered a money purse. They dropped the pants in the room, but examined the pocket book on the piazza and after extracting $21 left it on the floor near the door. The robbery was not discovered until the gentleman started to dress for the day. Some gold was left in the pocket book and nothing else about ttia hnaa wa. rii.tiirhd. but the nanta and money. It is supposed that the theft was committed by a' novice and by one who was cognizant of the habits of the victim. ! Arrest of a Burglar. j f uller Mans'ey, a colored man, ap parently abcut twenty years of age," was arrested in this city this morning by of ficer W. H. Biddle, of the police force upon the harge of burglary, and conveyed to the lock-up. The alleged crime was committed in Pender, and the defendant it seems, had been arrested by Justice McClammy, of that county, on yesterday, and locked up in his barn until the justice could make a trip to a neighbor's house to arrange the proper papersJ In the meantime, the prisoner becoming tired of his confine ment, forced the lock, when the door flew open and out! he walked a free man. I The time of this occurrence was, as they would express it in the country, "an hourbyaun." This morning Mr. Dan'I Futch, from Justice McClammy's neigh bo r hood, reached this city 'and imparted the foregoing information to Mr. Biddle, one of the police officers, giving him a full description of the man at the same time, whereupon the officer set his traps to cetchube offender, which he succeeded in doirg this morning j shortly after day break at the Market Dock, where the escaped prisoner was making diligent in quiries into the chances for getting over the river to Judge Bassell's plantation The party whose house was broken into was that of another colored min by the name of Frank Loften.
