Attempted Robbery The Thief Taken In l lie Act and LodsedMn the Gnard House. Yesterday afternoon four colored indi viduals entered the store of Mr. M. M. Katz, on Market street, and expressed a wish to look at some pants. One of the clerks proceeded to the back part of the stonTto show them the goods, and while engaged with three of the party the fourth slipped a pair of the pants under his coat and started towards the front door. The clerk, however, happened to glance at the fellow as he started to walk off and thought he perceived indications of an unusual bulkiness about 'the region of the left breast, which was sufficiently suggestive to excite his suspicions and cause him to "go for" the fellow, wTho, upon noticing the clerk's movements, darted for the door. The clerk seized him before he reached the sidewalk, but the thief jerked himself loose and started in the direction of Second street as fast as his legs would carry him, closely pursued by the young man. Luckily, as the fellow neared the corner he ran into the fond embrace of a policeman, who took him in charge and conveyed him to the Guard House. As he started to run the thief dropped the pants on the pavement, which were secured and carried to the sta- tion house with the prisoner to be used in evidence on the trial, which will probably take place before the Mayor this morning. The name of the enterprising youngster is Dennis McKoy, and this is probably not his first offence. With so many robberies taking place in the community all such offenders as are caught in the act of com mitting larceny are naturally looked upon as being implicated with some of the gangs who have been commiting so many depre dations lately. Superior Conn. The following cases were disposed of before this tribunal yesterday: State vs. Monroe Bird, charged with as saulted battery. Guilty. Judgment sus pended on payment of costs. State vs. J. K. Davis, charged with as. sault and battery. Submitted. Judgment suspended on the payment of costs. State vs. Wright Jarrell, charged with the abandonment of his wife and family.

We learn that a dispatch has been re ceived in this city from Washington, which states that Mr. H. Nutt, Chairman of the Committee now in that city for the pur pose of securing an appropriation of $350, 000 for our Bar and River Improvement, has been accorded a hearing before the Committee on Commerce, which is consid ered an encouraging circumstance. We understand that the tenor of the dispatch is of a hopeful nature, though nothing real ly tangible has yet been accomplished. A Scamp ou the Tramp. Under this head the Monroe Enquirer says: A. ieliow proiessing to De an agent for a New York newspaper, the Daily Graphic, was in this place last week. We don't think he did much except to leave the hotel without paying his bill. The Argus says he played the same trick in Wadesboro, and also borrowed the land lord's umbrella."

Charming Katie Putnam will sing two of her most admired tongs to-night "Come Birdie, Come," and " Beware, Oh, Beware," To-night's performance will be by far the most attractive given in the first four nights of Miss Putnam's engagement As the Raleigh New man said last winter, "Let's all go to-night" Not the least enjoyable feature of Miss Katie Putnam's performances is the piano accompaniments of Mr. HarrySaxUn, who is e wUe4 Uy few, if any, leading pianists N. C, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1874. A CANDID WITNESS. An Amusing Episode of tne Superior Court Description or a Ulan Who Is Subject to FU. During the investigation of a case in the Superior Court yesterday, in which a white man was charged with the willful abandon ment of bis family, a witness was called to the stand, who, in giving in his testimony, convulsed the court and spectators with laughter. It would be impossible to repro duce the evidence, or any part of it, in such a manner as to cause our readers to have ah adequate appreciation of the amusement it afforded, as the appearance, gestures, &c, of the witness formed the main fea ture ef the laughable scene. We give a brief outline of the testimony, as nearly as it can be reproduced from memory: Question Do you know Mr. and Mrs. Answer Yes, sir, I think I do; and the way they are related, she is his wife and he is her husband. State the condition of their houshold. Ans. Yes, sir. Their house is a hut, and it holds nothing to eat, and there are four little children, that he is too lazy to work for and the neighbors have to feed. D T and I have done about as much in that way as we propose, and now we think it is about time for this Court to take hold of him and see if there is any law to make him work for the support of himself and his family, as the rest of us have to do. I have a family of my own to take care of and think its unjust that he should not be made to do i.i duty to his wife and chil dren. -r . Que. How is it that he does not sup port his family? Ann. He does no work; never did work and never will. He hates work and is afraid of it. Ques. Is he an able-bodied man? Ans. He is more able to work than I am ; but he is lazy. His children were bound out once. He went there and took them away and now sends them around begging for meat and bread, which he takes away and eats and leaves them to suffer. Ques. Has he left his wife or does he stay with her ? Ans. He is commonly found at home whenever there is anything to eat there. At other times he prowls around, sometimes pretending that he is bit by snakes. CROSS-EXAMINED. Ques. -Don't you know that defendant has left his wife for four years ? Ans. Yes, sir; I do. I know he leaves his wife every time the neighbors' meat and bread give out; but he always makes out to get back whenever they get anything to eat in the house. He hasn't been home in some weeks; that is because there hasn't been a quart of meal in the house in a week or two. Counsel. Speak of j'our own knowledge and not of hearsay. Ans. I am speaking of my own knowl edge. . He has not given his wife and three children an ounce of meal or a piece of cloth in years. Ques. Don't you know, sir, that defend ant is subject to fits ? Ans. Yes, sir, I do. He is subject to a constant fit of laziness. Ques. You are not asked about his hab its, but about a disease which overcomes him for the moment. Ans. Yes, sir, I understand. This dis ease of laziness has overcome him at every moment of his life, since he has lived in our neighborhood. Ques. Don't you know he is an old man? How old is he ? Ans. He is older than he is good. He is about 33; a healthy, able-bodied rascal. Ques. He says he is 52. What do you say? Ans. I say if he is 52 he is the youngest 52 I ever saw. Look at him yourself. If he says he is 52 it is a sure sign there is going to be another war. Ques. Where was he during the last war? Ans. He was in the woods. I believe they did catch him once, but he got back on some sort of a.f urlough and hid himself in and about until peace. I think he is the meanest white man I ever knew. Just turn around and ask him if I aint telling you the truth. This evidence was thought sufficient and no other witnesses were called by the State, The iriexlcan Survivors' Association. The members of this body met at the City Cour Room last night, when the fol lowing Constitution was offered : Akt. I. The name of this Association shall be the Mexican Survivors' Associa tion. Its object is the preservation of the records and traditions ot the Mexican war, and to benefit and improve the condition ef the survivors and their families. Abt; IL' Every survivor of the Mexican war, resident within the county, who was honorably discharged, and every member of the family of such, are entitled to mem bership on the payment of the initiation fee and signing these articles. Honorary members may be elected at the anniversary meetine. Art. III. The anniversary of the Soci ety, shall be the 22d of February in each vear. when the Association shall meet and elect a President, Secretary, Treasurer, Marshal and Color-bearer for the year, Art. IV.

The initiation fee shall be one dollar. Art. V. The Drteent officers shall con tinue in office until fie 22nd ef February inst, and their successors are elected aad qualify, . Owing to the absence of the President, who was unavoidably detained, it being j Court treek, no action was taken, and the meeting adjourned to meet ai ine same j place on the 22nd of February iast , at 12 ' o'1Vtr TVT. , .'V.-. . .

The performance was of a character suit ed to the display of her wonderful versatil ity. The antithesis of Mercy Merrwk and Nan the Good for Worthing was renewed in the quick transitions from Mrs. Honeyton in the delightful comedietta entitled A Happy Pair to Blade-OP Grass in the sensa tional play in which Miss Putnam assumed the title role. Blade G1 Grass is by no means the best ex ecuted sensational play that we have re cently seen. The enlightened spectator never looks for literary merit in plays of the strictly sensational school, and the lite rary feature is by no means the best in Blade O1 Grass. Nevertheless it supplies in unstinted quantity those accessories of startling stage effect which are the chief elements of the sensational drama. Miss Katie Putnam does not fail to make a character of Blade O1 Grass a character sustained throughout the entire play, des pite his Protean changes. The same re mark is true of Mr. Browne as Tom Beadle. Mr. Browne gives the London gammas well, perhaps, as it is possible for an American actor,, not strictly a dialect-actor, to render a part so entirely local and dialectic. The support in Blade CPyPrass was excel lent. Mr. Holland, as OUv Sweet, eave evi dence of his appreciation of a well-known character in Ten Thousand a Year, from which the play Blade G Grass has largely drawn. Mr. Nugent did not strike us favor ably is the important part assigned him Mr. Burton gave us an exceedingly good Irishman, and Mr. Kennieott was faithful, pains-taking and genteel as he is in all his assumptions. To-night, the most attractive bill of the week: Megs Diversion and Little Rebel, with specialties of Miss Putnam and Mr. Browne in both pieces. Local Dots. Only one trifling case before the Mayor's Court yesterday morning. The schr. Ren, Captain Davis, J cleared from New York for this port en the 9thinst. Capt.

Porter, an old and well known citizen, a native of Hebron, Connecticut, died at his residence just be yond the city limits on Tuesday, in the 65th year of bis age. Deceased leaves many warm friends in the community. A young man who has worked one or two years at the printing business and wishes te complete his trade, can ob tain a situation, as apprentice, by applying at the office of The Morning Star, .tf Tne Lutheran Church. The work of stuccoing the Lutheran Church, under the management of Mr. Henry Smyth, has been about completed, and preparations are now being made to .lay a pavement from the entrance of the enclosure to the steps of the Church. The new pavement is to be laid after a plan orig inated by Mr. Smyth himself, for which a patent is expected to be obtained. Judging from the plan shown us it will be a very handsome one, and we learn that its dura bility is unquestioned. The stuccoing-of the Church, which has been very thorough, even including the steps at the entrance, has wonderfully improved the appearance of the edifice, which is now one of the neat est buildings of its character in the State. The stuccoing is made to resemble blocks of light grayish stone, which : has. a fine ef fect, the artistic skill displayed reflecting much credn upon Mr. Smyth, the coni tractor, , a . Book BraiWB-r.
