City Conrt.
The case of Chas. Wassent, ctnrged with as
sault and battery on the person f Mr. Daniel
Russell, on or about the 20th of last month,
was np before the City Court yesterday morn-,
lag, and, after a lengthy examination, consu
ming the greater part of the forenoon, he was
finally required to give security in the sum of
1200 for his appearance at the next term of the
Superior Court, in default of which he ' was
committed to jail. . , . .

Cotton for the Missouri Fair.
Yesterday Messrs. Sprunt & Hinson; re
ceived one bale of Middling cotton intended
furthest. Louis, Missouri Fair, which will
be shipped on the first steamer to Baltimore
aud thence forwarded to its destination. This
cotton was raised on the plantation of Dr. E.
F. Ashe, whose cotton took the first preminm
at our Fair last year, and was picked by the
Dr.'s wife and daughter. By the way, we
learu that no freight will be charged on cotton,
iutended for the St. Louis Fair, by the Balti
more and Southern Steamship Line.
The Bond Case Again.
The much talked of Bond case, in which
pne J. Keller of Baltimore figure as defend
ant, came up for final examination before U.
8. Commisbioner McQaigg yesterday after
noon. r ' - - - k
DuBrutz iCullar, " Esq., appeared for the
United States," and ' Messrs. M. London and
Wm. R. Em pie, for the defence.
The defendant was arraigned on two separate
charges, viz : Counterfeiting, and forging the
endorsement on the bond, on both of which,
after a lengthy investigation,' interspersed
with argument by counsel, he was acquitted.
He was subsequently rearrested, however, on
the charge of delivering and offering to sell to
the 1st National Bank of this city a bond of
the United States with a false and forged en
dorsement thereon, wlth the intent that the
said endorsement should be used as true and
genuine. This charge was predicated on two
affidavit , to wit: One from C. P. Balrd, Of
Philadelphia, stating that this Identical bond
was stolen from his office on the 27th day of
December, 1866, while the bond itself sho.ws
that it was endorsed by D. Rosa . McKean, in
whose favor it was made, on the 5tb : dayt o
January, 1869, or about three years after it was
. stolen; and One from Wm. Larkins, Esq.,' o
the 1st National Bank; that to the best of his
knowledge and belief the said endorsement is
a forgery. - ,
On this charge. Mr. Keller was held to bai
in the sum of $1,000 for his appearance at the
next term of the U.; S Citcult Court.

The Charleston Mw of yesterday says :
The sudden change from warm to cool
weather has had, as was expected, an uufavor
able effect upon the sick, and four deaths from
fever are reported for the twenty-four hours
ending at noon yesterday, viz : . John ; Hab-
enicht, who died on the 19th, and Lizzie-Jones,
jHenry Kuck and Diedrlch Klintworth, who
died on the 20th. Against this, we may set
the cheering effect that the cool weatber pre
vents the fever from f spreading. - With the
thermometer ranging through the sixties, new
cases of yellow fever should be out of the ques
tion." - ' 1 -.
Our press telegram, of last night reports
eight deaths from the fever during the pre
ceding twenty-fonr hours, which shows ' a
arge increase of mortality -as compared with
previous reports. i

Mr. Robert Costio, who was stabbed in the
head on the night of the 11th Inst., during a
difficulty between himself and Mr. W. H.
Jamesrand who has been lingering between
life and death ever since, departed this life
yesterday at about 1 F. M. During the day
and night previous he appeared to be better
(ban usual, possessing his faculties to a great
er degree than at any time since he bad re
ceived the wound, but yesterday he was seized
with a chill and from that went into conyhl-
eions, which continued with slight intermis
sions until his death. He never spoke from
the time he was wounded, and died without
giving any : information to his friends in regard
to the affray which resulted so disastrously to
him.
Coroner Hewlett was notified and summon

An Ass In aXion'a Sbln.
i In an article of some length, emanating from
the brain (?) of that queerest of the queer te
nnises who presides over the ; columns of the
Lumberton-Cbicago-Jfofeconton, vvhlch is to
tally uncalled for and unprovoked by anything
which ever appeared, editorially ; or otherwise,
in the Stab, the editor attempts to array the
people of Robeson against our. paper .by in
dulging In a tissue of misrepresentations and
deductions from false premises. Io the first
place, although well acquainted with , the in
consistencies (so-called) of the individual al
luded to, we are really surprised that he should
accuse any one else of intimating "that the
people of Robeson are all cowards and pol
troons," an accusation which nothing we have
ever said can be construed to warrant, when
it is well known that the Editor of the RobesQ
nian, both through his paper and in private
conversations, has frequently expressed this
opinion ofthe people of his own county, and
that in the strongest terms, even going so far
in conversation with us as to make , but one
single azception to his otherwise sweepiug
assertion that the citizens of that county, en
gaged in operations against the outlaws, were
just what he unblushingly and falsely charges
the Stab with intimating them to be. ' That
he should thus go back on his own record and
accuse others of that which he knows himself
to be guilty of may be characteristic . of the
man, but it is not calculated to benefit him in
the community, where, among intelligent peo
people, his status as a journalist has already
been correctly estimated.
This pious pretender next takes up the cud
gel in defence of the County Commissioners
of Robeson, torturing a mere suggestion of
AnralhatiUnigh t have J)aiiL.hatirti,h.av4
given Mr; Renno tome remuneration for
his trouble in capturing Pop. Oxendine,
so as to encourage him and others to per
severe in their efforts to rid the county of
the outlaws, into an act of "officious intermed
dling" in the affairs of Robeson county, and
this when in the same article the astute editor
says himself that he Is "satisfied the Commis
sioners would cheerfully allow him a reason
able fee.'-
Bat the coolest thing in the whole column
of absurdities with which the article referred
to abounds, is the Editor's reference to the
sensational character of our paper. If we had
taken np half the space the Hobesonian has in
ridiculous appeals for the introduction of
blood-bounds, snakes, and other monstrocities
to hunt the outlaws to their death" we might
lay some claim to publishing a sensational
sheet, but as it is the Eobesonian is entitled to
the premium.
The whole article bears the impress of spite,
malevolence and jealousy, and these character
istics are so transparent in every word that he
has uttered against ns, to say nothing of his
striking a cotemporary from his exchange list
becuuse it persisted in copyingLdur articles in
stead of his own, that we deem it unnecessary
to say anything further to convict this pious
pretender, this would-be knight-errant of the
chivalry of Robeson county, before the bar of
an intelligent public opinion. '

Must live obscure, and never merit praise."
