A Raid on Scotch Herring:.
On Wednesday evening, about 8 o'clock,
four Colored boys, named respectively Da
vid Price, James Anderson, Joe Davis and
Ellis Merrick, assembled in front of Mr. R.
. Heide's store, on SouthFront street, and
entered into a conspiracy to obtain posses
sion of a number of boxes of Scotch her
rings, Mr. Heide and his clerks being in
the back 'part of the store at the time en
gaged in writing and the front door being
slightly, ajar. - Price was selected to enter
the store, secure the herrings and deliver
them to the others on the outside. He
accomplished his part of the undertak
ing, without detection and the party
proceeded to dispose of their prizes.
It was the understanding that 'they
were to . carry them to a certain
shop in " Paddy '8 Hollow,", where they
-were -to receive the money for them. Three
of the boys adhered to this bargain, but the
fourth decided to take his' box home! It
happened, however, that a policeman dis
covered the boys with the boxes in their
arms and came to the conclusion that there
was something wrong He succeeded in
capturing James Anderson and took him to
the Guard House and on the way he con
fessed his own guilt and implicated his three
companions. Two of the others" were sub
sequently captured and -the remaining one
is no doubt ere this in custody. " They will
have a hearing before the Mayor this morning-

Freaks of a Lunatic.
A crazy colored man, who answers te
the name- of General Hart, and who has
been in confinement m the Guard House for
several Jays past, was turned loose yester
day, under the impression that he had suffi
ciently recovered to warrant.it, and suc
ceeded in alarming a large number of oar
citizens last night bys going through the
streets and shouting murder. &c, at the top
of his lungs. .' In the neighborhood of Sixth
and Ann streets, about 11 o'clock, he fairly
" startled the natives" withhis .unearthly
yells, and several gentlemen rushed out of
their dwellings to ascertain what was the
matter. They followed him for some dis
tance,' but "crazy as he was Tie ' managed to
elude them. ' !
Efforts were made to secure a policeman,
but there seemed to be none of the city's
guardians anywhere in that locality. Final
ly, between 11 and 12 o'clock, he made his
way to the Guard House of his own free
will, still shouting murder and was locked
up by the janitor in charge.

As officer Geo. W. Davis was passing the

her name as Annie Jones and said she lived
over the railroad. . She stated that she was
passing tbe City Hall jvhen she was accost
ed by a member of Capt .Cooper's colored
military company, who was standing on
the steps. His remarks were anything but

A Woman Attempts tb Frlaliten Her
Husband." ' .
Quite an amnsin'g affair occurred at Point
Caswell oi few' days since." A certain indi
vidual, who is in the habit occasionally of
indulging too freely of the " cup that ine
briated," had met a party of his friends '. at
a place where intoxicating beverages are
dealt bnt to thirst humanity; and 'was hav
ing a good time of it. ; ?The wife 0f the man
alluded to endeavored to induce her " liege
lord" to forego for her sake his pleasant but
demoralizing pastime and accompany her
home; and, oh' his ' refusing to' do so, she
declared that she was not going to put fip
with such conduct anymore; she would kill
herself first Finding that, the threat had.
no effect, she though she would try what its
apparent realization would accomplish. She
went home, about, one hundred and fifty
yards. from wherejher huadand was worship
ping at the shrine of. : Bacchus, and shortly
-afterward a gun was heard to fire in that
direction. : Remembering her threat, a gen
tleman of the party hastened to the house,
and, peeping through the cracks, saV the
woman extended at1 her f uir length in the
middle of the. floor and the gun lying' by
her side". He hastily returned, horror de
picted on, his countenance, and informed
the jBtletnen that his we had committed
suicide nd. was the lying on .the fiobr' of
their house weltering in jier blood. : The
reply of her strtled husband ws ;yery
touching and revealed the strength of .his
affection in' a manner which was truly sub
lime. He said, "I don't care a continen
tal; I didn't do it!" A party soon
got together and went to look after the poor
woman, when it was' found that she was
alive and well, having mehiry: perpetrated
a grave joke with the View of frightening
her husband How far she succeeded has
