WAYNE ALL RIGHT.
Our cotemporary of the Wilming

"Are our fnends in Wayne county
attendidg to the doubtful voters? If
Wayne goes Conservative, as we hope
she will, our chances for controlling
the ; Convention will be greatly im
proved. Wayne is looked to for two
votes. With an able and unimpeach
able ticket in the field that gallant
county should not be considered
doubtful. Men of Wayne, turn out
next Th'nrsday and vote for Dortch
and Cox."
, WTe think we can assure our Wil
mington neighbor that old Wayne
will prove herself true to the white
man's party, and that Dortch and
Cox will be elected by a handsome
majority. - The color lines have been
fairly drawn by the Radical them
selves. 'They tell every negro that
be must vote the Radical ticket, and
accepting the challenge the white
men must likewise become a unit.

"A colored woman by the "name of Dora
Huberts, living on Market between'Tenth
and Eleventh streets, was arrested yester
day mornlDg, charged with stealing the
amount of $140 from Haywood K. Turner,
also colored. . ! .
It appears that Dora Robefls lives next
door 16 Turner arid that about a week be
fore the theft was committed, which was
on the 28th ult, Turner's wife paid a visit
to the accused, taking her infant child with
her. The child was given a bunch of keys
.with which to amuse jtselt while the elders
were engaged- in -conversation, and after
the woman Turner, with her child, had
taken her departure and reached home she
became aware of the fact that the keys were
missing. She therefore re turned to the
house of Dora Roberts and enquired if she
had seen anything of them, to which 6be
(Dora) replied that she had not A week
passed away and one day the wife of Tur
ner had occasion to use a portion of the
$140 which the couple had succeeded in ac
cumulating by their joint industry, and
which had been locked up carefully in one
of her bureau drawers, and ; found to her
astonishment that it was all gone.
lit is not our province to describe the
grief and dismay which overcame the poor
woman at the discovery of the severe loss
sustained, nor the indignation' of the no
less interested husband when informed of
the facts. Suffice it to say that a search
warrant was procured from Justice T. M.
Gardner and placed in the hands of an ex
perienced and skillful officer, who pro
ceeded to search the premises of Dora Rob
erts. We would state rhjht here, parenthetic
ally, that aootber clue had been obtained
to the missing money besides the loss of
the keys, Which led to the issuance of the
warrant for the search of Roberts' bouse
It seems that on the day that -the money
was missed Turner's wife was engaged at
the washing tub in the back yard, when
some noise in the honse was heard which
attracted her attention She hastened to
see what it meant but could tlnd co trace of
any one in the building. In the course
of a few moments, however, she dis
covered Dora Roberts going round the
house and acting in a suspicious manner.
The woman Turner had also, a few days
before, gone suddenly into the room and
found the accused in the vicinity of the bu
reau. '
Armed with his warrant, the officer al
luded to went to the house of Dora Roberts
yesterday morning, during the absence of
her husband, and commenced his search.
He first selected a large' trunk, which he or
dered the woman to open. After some
hesitation and the use of various subtet
fugts, which only caused the officer to be
more determined in the matter, this -.was
done, when, on overhauling the contents,
which consisted of various articles which
were no doubt purchased with the money
purloined, a part of the funds, together
with the bunch of keys belonging to Turner,
was discovered and taken in charge. In the
embarrassment of the moment the woman
asked bow much Turner had lost, and when
informed of the amount she unthoughtedly
replied that Turner lied if lie had said it
was so much, as she had only spent about
$5, thus indirectly confessing the theft
The money stolen consisted of one $20 bill,
five $10 bills and fourteen $3 bills, making
in all $140. The amount recovered was
$89 50. Astbe.offlcer was taking charge
of the money a fifty cenl bill, which was
found lying slightly apart from the bulk of
the funds, was seized by the accused, who
excitedly remarked that the bill in question
did not belong with the other, but wu her
money. j

1874. Messrs. J. Ss W. ToUey, 99 Maiden Lane, New
York GmL: The 13 Qun which you built for me,1
No. 9093, has arrived safely to hand. Allow me to
thank you for the fidelity with which you carried out
my" instructions. ' The general Outline, beauty of
proportion and excellent finish, are all that could be
desired, and more than meets my expectations. ' I
am more than ever impressed with the Idea that it is
as necessary for a man to have a gun built to meas
urement as to have a boot ao built to ensure a good
fit The pattern 175 and penetration 40 are very su
perior. The pattern is as close as I desire, and the
penetration I think is seldom attained, being far
ahead of any public record which t have seen.
