WILMINGTON, N. C SATURDAY. MAY 27. The Tragedy at 3Ionroe. The Monroe papers contain a very full account of the unfortunate homicide which occurred there las$ Wednesday evening, which resulted in some very painful injuries sustained by Mr. Berry Binford, formerly of this city, and the killing by that gentleman of his assail ant. The deceased man Was a colored prisoner confined in the county jail at Monroe on the charge of an attempt to ; assassinate a colored woman. He was a very muscular man and was known 1 I as a desperate character. He had con . - ... ... , 1 uaeu 10 a ieiiowpnsoner in me jaii, as f has since been confessed) that he was determined to play a violently insane dodge and attempt to escape from the jail, even if he killed some one in the attempt. On Wednesday he was con fined in a cell alone, and refused his dinner, when it was sent-to him, strip ped himself to the waist and began with his naked hands to tear off the wooden ceiling of his cell. We. must now let' the Express tell the following: The Sheriff finally summoned a posse to aid him to remove the negro and ,as it was impossible to keep the crowd back, the corridors ot the jail were soon filled with people. The neaxo defied the crowd, 'cursed them for everything he could think 01, darea them to enter the cell, saying that he would kill the first one who did so, and when some one threatened to shoot him, he replied, blaze away: 1 haven't got but one time to die and would as soon die now as any time." He told the Sheriff that he had just as well prepare his rope and hang him at once ; that he would have to do it, as he . intended to kill some body if he ever got out, and he had just as well prepare his rope and do thejob. He had torn off six or eight square feet of the ceiling, and the pieces of plank, of suggestive! y convenient size for hand ling, were lying scattered around the room, and no one was willing to enter it. The crowd was there probably half an hour trying to devise means to get at him, when Poss Williams, a .very stout negroiman, proposed to enter the cell, but when the door wasj opened, before Poss could make an attempt to enter it, with a bound, like aii enraged tiger, he was through the cell door and in the midst of the crwd, with a piece of plank in either hahd with which he was striking about him indiscriminate ly. Some of the crowd, panic jstricken, rushed for the steps, but several closed upon him, but he was so slick, being entirely naked to the waist, that he slipped through their hands like an eel. Finally Mr. J . S. Richardson caught him by a piece of cloth which he had tied around his neck, and in the strug gle they went into the cell which was opposite the one in which he had been confined, carrying Mr. Berry Binford with him. The negro appeared to pay no attention to Mr. Richardson, but threw him around as if he was a child, and seeing Mr. Binford before him he made for him and struck him two severe blows with the plank, and was in the act of striking him again when he was jerked around by Mr. Richard-f son, when Mr. Binford, having drawn his pistol while he was in close quar ters, shot him twice in the back and in the right arm, when he fell with a groan. Mr. Binford, who was very seriously hurt and who would undoubtedly have been killed if the negro had had a fair lick at him was conveyed to a bed room in the second story of the build ing, where he was immediately attend ed by Pr. W. C. Ramsay. Pr. S. J. Welsh was summoned to attend the negro, but pronounced his injuries mor tal as soon as he examined him. The negro lingered about two hours alter bcinar shot, dvins: about half an hour before sundown. Mr. Binford was stricken on the arm and shoulder, and very painfully, but not seriously, injured. He will proba- blv be able to be out to-morrow. Air. Binford had borrowed the pistol which he used in the mofning, to practice . for the 4th of July shooting, and was in the act of returning it when he heard the fus3 in the jail and went, up with the crowd. It was a fortunate cirgumstance that he happened to have it. , The coroner held an inquest over the remains this morning and the jury, af ter hearing the evidence, which was in accordance with the above facts, ren dered a verdict entirely exonerating Mr. Binford fiom all blame. It ap peared from the evidence of Werry Cly jurn that the negro intended to make lis escape at all hazards, and had told lim that he intended to act just as he did. 1 ' r. ' "r. - , Shot and Cut.-. There was a little set-to yesterday on the excursion train at Whiteville. Two drunken colored men quarreled, when one of them, EUerby, cut Geo. Free man in the left shoulder! with a large knife. Ellerby leaped from the train and ran for the woods, but was shot by some one as the train moved off. We tiave tried to get particulars, but have failed. The excursionists are ret icent about the matter, and r' seemed to think we were asheriff, backed by a posse comiiaius, who was asking ques tions with a view of getting then into trouble. Both of the men were from Marion. Freeman's wounds are, not very severe, but it is not known to what extent Ellerby is hurt. When he was shot he dropped and crawled into the woods while the train moved off. . Albert Walker, colored, was arrested yesterday for playing ball on the streets. i The very latest for young men of tho extreme type of fashion, is pants cut skin tight, gently sloping toward the feet, where they are pasted to the ankles with mucilage, intended;. to keep ants j. from crawling up a man's legs at pic- j niC3. We are authorized and requested to ) state that the assertion made by us a i few days since, 1 to the effect that Mr. Samuel Bell' attempt on his lifo was duejto domestic diffi.culties.is erroneous and that it was not due to this cause. ao irromore a vigorous ixrovuioi! the ajr, use Parker's Hair Balsam.

The anniversary of the Wilmington Hook and Ladder Company No. I, was celebrated last night by the members of the Company and their invited guests at Pine Grove, Wrightsville Sound. The members and guests rode to the Sound in ambulances, wagonettes, etc., and were met by Capt. E. W. Man ning, who gave them a hearty welcome, and the freedom of his beautiful place. Lolling on the lawn and rambling on the beach, was indulged in until supper was announced. 1 The elegaut repast, rich in Sound fare, which had been prepared, was done ample justice to by those whose appetites had been whetted by the ride and the invigorating salt breeze.

I For the Review. Burg-awffeligrious Meetings vjn the Presbyterian Church. Bukgaw, May 25, 1882. Peak Editob : Rev. C. M. Howard is holding religious meetings, day and night, in the Presbyterian church at this place, with most remarkable success. These moonlight nights, the people gather for miles around, and listen with marked and eager attention tothe won derful powers of this man of God. His devotion in prayer, his great desire to be like Jesus, and - the many examples he gives to plainly illustrate his doc trines carry the people with an irresisti ble force. Many are enquiring the way to be saved, and we think wo do not exaggerate if we say 30. persons went up last night to the bench of prayer. We hope this good man will remain here until much good may be done, and it can be truly said of these people, "Behold, how they love one another." Solicitations to visit other churches are pressed upon this excellent and powerful man, and it is believed he will go to Jdt. Williams and then to Topsail churches when he leaves here. We want the people to come out and hear him, for we believe he will cause them to think as they never thought before. His teaching and training of the chil dren has a happy and beneficial in fluence over them and makes them anxious for the hours of church services to arrive. May he live long to push forward the great work in which he is engaged. W.
