'a-' . ; - A youth, by, the name of Richard Gregory, was engaged, in the dangerous isport of experi menting with the Globe' Press" in the Stab Publishing Department, "yesterday afternoon, when be got; his band caught between the cog-wheel and the frame, by which he nar" rowiy escaped getting his fingers chopped off. Fortunately he received.no 6erious injury. From Charleston. The only intelligence received from our un fortunate sister city of Charleston yesttrday, is contained in the following dispatches, the first of which was received from a prominent citi zen yesterday morning and addressed to City Marshal Canaday : ' ' . ! "Charleston, Aug. SO. .' No increase of the fever.' There were five deaths yesterday. V tNot epidemic." . The Associated Press dispatch, received last night, is as follows : " Charleston, Aug. SO. , "Three new cases of fever, were announced to day. The returns for ; the week ending Saturday show a total of six yellow fever deaths.", We trust that with the return of favorable weather the fever may abate and the good people of Charleston be spared the terrors of a fearful epidemic-. , ? : Ku Klux In Robeson. . e ' We learn that it is officially affirmed by those who know, that the Grand Jury of Robeson county, in session this week, has found true bills against parties alleged to have been im plicated in the recent murder of a colored man near Floral College in that county. The man said to have been u Kluxed it will be remem bered, was charged with ambushing and mur dering one Dr. Smith of that vicinity on the evening of election day, in August last. . Passengers on the W., C. & R. railroad yes terday report that Judge Russell has asked the assistance of the military forces now in that county hunting the Lowrey gang to make the arrests, although, as far as we could ascertain, no effort bad been made by any sheriff's posse to discharge that duty. It is affirmed by citi zens of the county that no trouble or resist ance was apprehended' from the parties charged with the crime, and regardless of any possible suspicion which may be aroused that we sympathize with the commission of any crime, W protest against this ready applica tion to the military ' authority before it is as certained whether the civil authority is able to vindicate; itself. The presence of the mili tary; authority hunting . the Lowrey gang should not be taken advantage of to override the civil authority where it Is competent, law ful and able to vindicate; itself.' No officer should have resource to the military power of the government until it has been first demon strated that the civil law is powerless to assert itself. - When such an unncessary appeal is made it exhibits ; an unwarranted distrust in the civil authority that is not justifiable when exhibited by those who are entrusted with the administration of justice. " - Arrest of Deserters. The Captain of the Brig Aura, now in this port, consigned to Messrs. Harris & Howell, missed too of his men yesterday morning, and upon instituting a search for them it was soon ascertained that they had heen .' seen , on the Steamship Pioneer which sailed for Philadel phia early in the morning. - Summoning l an officer to his assistance he immediately jump ed on the steamer Waccamaw and gave chase, finally succeeded in overhauling the JPioneer, took charge of his men and returned to the city on the Waccamaw yesterday evening. Their Camp. " J VV V T- " f The U. 8. forces co-operating in RobeBon with the State authorities, hive a healthy and pleasant camp at Eureka, in the- Scuffle town region, on ; the Wilmington, v Charlotte and Rutherford Railroad. ;- Their cam p has been named by J Col. Mendenhall,1 in command of the UY 8. Troops, Camp Caldwelf in honor of the Governor Of the State.'l Col" M.t is a kinsman of the Mendenhalla of .Guilford, we understand. v : ' ' 1 The Excursion Testerday. A large crowd "participated in the .regular Wednesday excursion to the seashore yester day, and all retu: ned , well pleased with the trip.. The boat.went a short distance outside to as to give the excursionists some slight idea of the pleasnres.of a"lite on the Ocean wave." Bythefway, we learn that an arrangement has been made with the different Railroads by which excursion tickets can be obtained to Smithville and return. , , , . Moonlight jfxeursiohr5 -' Notice is given in our advertising columns that a moonlight excursion on the steamer Waccamaie wilt be given on lTriday night next, the boat' to leave her wharf at 9 o'clock. Re freshments will be furnished oo the boat to those who desire them. Fare for the round trip, f 1. It will doubtless be a very pleasant affair. "' The Cost of Whipping a Radical. We learn that; the case of apL J. W. Plummer vs. O. S. Hayes, who recently en gaged in an affray, some account of which we gave atthe time, came up before Robeson Superior Court this week , and : resulted ; in Capt. Plummer being fined $75 and the costs. Sanitary Measures. - " ' ' " ' At a meeting of the Board of Heal th of Au gusta, Ga , on Monday last, in order that soma measures might be adopted to prevent yellow fever being 'introduced into that city from Charleston, the following rules and reerula tions were adopted, which contain ..some val uable hints . and ' Suggestions ' that may, be of service here: . . 1st. No original packages shall be allowed to enter the city from any infected' locality. ; 2d; No sleeping car, box car, nor car of any kind that is kept closed, shall be. allowed to enter-the city. Zd. Through freight cars will be allowed to pass through, but not to tarry in the city. : ' 4th. No packages of fruit or vegetables shall be allowed to enter, the city from an infected locality. ... r J 5th. AH trunks and other vehicles capable of containing poisoned air, shall be ventilated by an agent of this city at least five mi'es from the city. . In the event of owners refusing: the request of the city official, they shall be in formed that nether them nor their baggage shall be allowed to enter the city. . 6th. Hatchways of all steamboats arriving from any infected locality shall be sealed ten miles from the city,, and: not allowed to be opened until arriving at the point at which they were sealed. The 4th rule was amended so as' to Include vegetables along with fruit. " In reply to a question whether it had been determined that yellow fever could be brought into a city by means of cars, Dr. Ford, Chair man of the Board, said "the pestilence could be brought in close cats. In 1854 a man left Augusta, and went away to Union Point to es cape the yellow fever then raging in this city. Neither he nor any member of his family vis ited Augusta, but they .received freight from this city in a close car, and the man used to unload the car himself upon its arrival, aided by some negroes while his wife stood near. The man died from yellow fever, and his wife' and negroes also had it but did not die. "He mentioned another instance where a man came to this city from Charleston during a yellow fever epidemic, bringing with him a carpet bag. The carpet bag was .opened in a room where there were several persons,, every one of whom had the yellow fever and died from its effects." - At a meeting of the City Council, held the same day, the action of the Board was en dorsed. A resolution was adopted directing the Clerk of Council to open a book where nuis ances could be reported without the reporters giving their names. Mr. Rogers, a member of the Council, said "he did not want the people here to be treated as they were in Charleston. Let the people have all the information on the subject. It would tend to quiet them, and show that we were on the alert.'? The Mayor said he would " report the first case which came to his knowledge. He knew his duty and intended doing it. A flairs In Robeson. ' Things in Robeson are progressing favor ably. Perfect accord and harmony exists be tween the citizen volunteers and the U. S. troops, and all hands are determined to con tinue the campaign until the outlaws are wiped out. The citizens have become assured that the present effort of the authorities, both State and national, is no6pasmotic affair, and are beginning to be assured that something definite will result. The apparent apathy at first exhibited by the citizens has been dissi pated, and two hundred volunteers will assist the U. S. troops in the effort to capture the outlaws, who are becoming very much alarm ed and desire to parley and make, turns. . They are now In a condition that is sure to result in their capture. Spies and scouts are on the lookout for them all over the county around that vicinity, and detectives and the police of different cities and towns have been' cautioned to be on the look out for them, should . they attempt to escape. Such a result is not pro bable, however,, as they deem themselves, and doubtless are, safer in their, native jungles than elsewhere. It is only a question of time a short time when they will be captured. The Burnlns; of the Steamer Caswell. A gentleman from Point Caswell yesterday informs us that the damage to the Steamer Caswell, recently ' burned at that place, was greater than at first reported, and that the loss will probably reach $3,000. Capt. Paddl son thinks the fire ;was communicated by a spark from a pipe, as be can account : for the accident in no - other -way - Be has certain reasons for suspecting a colored boy, who he thinks was asleep in the cabin at the time the fire brokeoat, with being the innocent cause of the disaster, though the boy denies that he was in the cabin at the time. " ' -. Ciffas RosesA Word of Warning. . The Chicago Republican say's there has been a recent judicial decision' touching ih tax upon cigars, making it a penalty of $50 not to destroy the box afteMhe cigars shall have been taken therefrom.,. This applies not only to the regular dealer'in the article, but . to the . con sumer, aud the individual who has a dozen empty ; cigar-boxes "kicking around" his house, or in the possession of his children, had better put his foot in them, or institute a savings bank in order r to meet the penalty, since the law does not excuse ignorance.
