It is thought e( ; that the boat was rowed across the ..... stream and pulled along the west side or Soulv t,,,,c Pwl lhlcvt? iaVC ' of the river until it reached a point op been plying their vocation, and have m Mma stolen a very large quantity of cotton. U4iBO It has been known that they used a a ; b at and would pull with muffled oars j Personal . the wharves, stopping where Bottom was store 1, and rob the bales o: small amounts, but iu the aggregate their hauls amounted to .nearly a bale a night. The police have known for some time past that three men were always together in the boat, and have been watching their starting and stop ping points. Sunday night was the time selected bv the oolice authorities to catch the thieves. Sergeant Davis was placed in charge of the matter. He placed his men in good positions so that they could watch everything going on. They succeeded Sunday morning in capturing a yawl boat containing about a bale of cotton, though the thieves made good their escape from -the officers, but it is supposed that they all met their deaths by drown ing. It is positively known that one now lies in a watery grave. Thi details of the raid are as follows : Saturday night Police Officers Griffith, McCalland Harriss were secreted on the old Baltimore Steamship wharf between Chestnut and Mulberry streets, with instructions to keep a sharp eye on a yawl boat near by. At 1 o'clock Sunday morning Dave Brown was seen getting in the boat and starting off in the direction of the "dram tree." Very soon after he lea the wharf, driaing noiselessly with the tide, he gave two sharp whistles Just about that. hour a couple of men were seen on tho wharf foot of Chestnut street by the route car riers of the REview. Tho iiioq asked the boys to step off and find the Alpha for them but the little fellows ran to the orr.. Tt is thought that these two men were waitr ing for Brown and got in the boat with him. Nothing more was seen or beard of them untiU o'clock, when Officers Griffith, Harriss and McCall saw the boat coming directly across the river to them. The oars were muffled and the boat, made no noise. They came along side the wharf and the men got out and went directly towards the officers, with Brown in the lead. The men -were or dered to "halt," but to avoid arrest jumped into the boat, and then into the river. As Brown jumped he pulled off his coat, leaving it in the boat. One of the other men, after he was in. the wa ter, crawled back into the yawl, turned it adrift and pulled off his coat and vest. The officers sunglout to bjm to bring back the boat or they would shoot, when tho man plunged into the water again. He soon called for aid several times, calling "Jim, como and help me, I'm 'most gone." The officers threw sticks of wood to the drowning man, but before he could reach them the dark waters of the Cape Fear dosed over his head. His two companions swam for some distance and were going up the stream when they were last seen by the officers. There was no boat at hand in which they could pursue the, tmeves. The officers finally succeded in getting abatteauoutofadock and picked up the drifting yawl. They carried it to the Market Dock and reported the result to their superior officers. In the yawr were fourteen bags and one bundle of cotton.the whole weighing foor hundred pounds. One of the coats ieit in the boat was recognized as crown and the other as belonging to Henry vw Hpnrv Gause. There is no telling who the man "Jim" was. The drowned man is thought to be Henry Drew, as ft is well knewn that he could not swim. Per contra, it is reported that Drew was seen on the streets Sun day talking to his brotbcr-in-Jaw. The homes of Drew and Brown have been watched but the thieves have not been seen. A colored woman reports that she saw two colored men in their shirt sleeves going over the Hilton bridge Snndav morning about daybreak. One thing is certain, that one of the tno was drowned, but which one no one can ten. . m w-kw ri and dispel xaww awf " . Th. hodv will DrobaWy rite and dispel all doubt as to the identity of the drown ed man. I . The stolen cotton has been identified by Mr. D. L. Gore as a bale sold by him on Friday to Mr. A. H.

SEPTEMBER broker who sold the cotton and the man who graded it proved that it was the same grade of cotton which was sold to Mr. (ireene. The cotton was stolen from Mr. Gore's warehouse at the foot of Ann street. The door was forced open y lhe thieves iho Iv of cotton was torn to uieces and nut in the bass and Mr. Chas. E. Burr, who some mouths since sought relief from suffering and disease among the mountains in Rap pahannock county, Virginia, returned to the city on Saturday night not at all improved, we are sorry to learu. during his absence. He is very weak and ill, but his friends do not yet despair of hie ultimate recovery. Removal.

R., and points contiguous thereto and beyond, are informed that their failure to receive Sunday's issue of the Review on that day was not the fault of this office, as th mail was delivered in full time to be sent out on the morning mail train Its non-delivery, however, was, we are j assured purely the result of an accident. A Private Circus. A gentleman in this city had a thrill inc axnerience a dav or two since. He - o i ; was on a visib to a ladv relative when he very suddenly jumped to his feet, ex claiming "Good gracious! It's asnalte." He tore franticallv at his clothing for a moment or two and then rushed to the door and placing his back against the sharp angle of the casing rubbed for all the world as if it was a genuine case of the army itch. This proceeding was varied by another dig at his coat, which he almost tore from his hordr thft vftsfc followed suit and WV- . W -IT ' then before the affrighted and aston ished ladies had time to close even one eye the gentleman's linen shirt was on the floor and forth from it there crept a mouse in its last dying agonies. It was a iriddv vouns thing, evidently in ;c toons mil nnlv about an inch in ico wvm asssfiw r length. It had probably been conceal orl in h ahirt as it lav in the drawer and remained there perfectly quiet unti ;t tiw.mriifthnt if. was about time for a w mvwfi - the circusjto begin, which was simulta neous with the gallant Colonel's morn ing call. Col. Green Last Nifflit. Quite a large number of persons were out last night to hear Col. Whar ton J. Green. Our worthy standard bearer was introduced by Mr. A. G. Ricaud in a well-timed speech. Col. ttreen, on taking the stand, paid his re spects to his opponent, who he could never get up to the scratch in joint dis cussion on thesissues of the campaign. He denied most emphatically and in no uncertain language the charges brought against him by his opponents in the campaign. He then handled the Re publican party with ungloved hands and showed up their record in the management of the school fund. He gave facts, corroborated by figures, which carried conviction to the hearts of men. He held up in review the dis gusting and disgraceful record of the Republican party. He discussed min utely their doings when they were in .imi rf this rmnd old Common- lAllfcaV. V C3 wealth and when the corrupt office-holders were like leeches sucking her life's blood. He showed up the past record of the party of corruption and asked what was to be expected of them if they again gained control of the State. Col. Green was attentively lis tensd to and made many new friends hv Ids able and impressive speech. J , r 1 of UOl. ureeu o i D Rall was called for sp"' vv. . , A A. j tt and responded happily to the call. He dealt the Bads some heavy Wows in howinar uo their heinous iniquities. Col. Hall is doing some good work in this campaign. ' Anything in the hardware line can be found at reasonable prices at Jaoo Bl'8. T Review.

The) dreaded l5orgia is a cnaracxer uaru to interpret and difficult to impersonate.

She possesses supero physique, mobile features, grace ot ges tures and a voice strengthened to the tragic tones, and we see in her the promise ot a tuture queen in ine reaim of highest dramatic art. She has every facility to realize her ambition and doubtless the courage to demand that success which her abilities command. Though at the threshold only of her career she displays grand powers to hold the hearts of her hearers and play upon them through the full gamut of the emotions. The support last night was very good and satisfactory. OPERA HOUSE. o Thursday tfiglit, Sept. 28tli Miss Claire Scott, Supported by the talented young Actor, S.
