V" Kro Captu red at
KenanavtIle by SherllT Wallace, of
Baplln Tbe Boraea Taken With
iiomi correspondent at Kenansville we
have infoimation of the capture at that
place, ) on Saturday last, by the Sheriff of
Duplin, of two negroes representing their
names to be Henry Wheeler and Henrv
Hall, upon suspicion of having stolen horses
wnicn turned but to bo true. , O"
: Sheriff Wallace" received a dispatch late
in the afternoon, from Bureaw. Pender
county, to look out for stolen horses de
scribing the horses exactly, and signed "Pe-
potH negroes are from Pender county.
.but urh examinatiou before Justice Car
roll they both stated they were from Samp
son county, Lisbon township, and had been
in the employ of Mr. Bronson. ' After they
were lodged in jail they confessed to t he
Sheriff thathe horees were stolen aud gave
tue names oi me parties, that they belonged
to J esse : Croom and Aaron Peter
son, of Bladen county. Both were fine
horses and in good condition. Henry Hall
is an ex-clerk of Caswell township, Pender
county, and of a bright copper color.5 The
other Henry Wheeler, is as black as Ben.
Butler's character. ; They are now in good
hands, and, it is presumed, will be dealt
with accordingto law at the next teim of
Duplin Court. O - -w
Latboi. From gentlemen coming in from
Caswell township, Pender county, last
night, we learn that the names of Henry
Hall and; Henry Wheeler, -given by the
thieves, were merely assumed for the occa
sion, and that-their real names those, at
least, by which they are known in Pender
areStilley Pridgen and Matthew John
son, respectively. : ' O
Elopament Extraardlaary.
- We learn that an extraordinary case of
elopement, for this part of the "moral vine
yard." occurred in our - sister coun ty of
Brunswick a few days since.; The femi
nine' party to the strange compact, is a
white woman, the wife of a man employed
at the Belvidiere plantation, aged about 2&
years, and her partner in the transaction
is a colored boy by the name of Scipio
Patrick, aged about 15 years. . It appears
that the woman went to a : colored church
near Easy Hill, on the evening of Sunday
before last, where she met the boy, when
they by -'some'-' means procured a team,
went to her house her husband being ab
sent at the plantation took all the . latter's
clothing, what money he had, a bed&c.,
and then . drove to a point on . the river
known as "Riverside, " where they succeed
ed iu getting on board of one of the boats
bound , to Fayelteville. We withhold the
name of the woman out of respect to the
feeliBgs of the wronged and "deserted , Lus
band. . v ;
btaatneful. -,
Yesterday morning, boys were almost as
plentiful in the fig-trees of a citizen on Red
Cross street as were the figs themselves,
and we understand that the numerical ratio
of the latter to the former was rapidly
changing in favor of the boys. At this in
teresting juncture a yourg man who was
passing had the hardyhood to spoil all their
fun by stating to them that a policeman
was at hand, and that he, the said young
man, together with the said policeman, pro
posed to accompany- them.-the said boys,
then and there to the Guard House. This
intelligence caused a precipitate retreat in
bad order, a scramble over sundry fences
at the risk of their necks, and a slide down
the steep embankment into the railroad cut,
where hospitable shelter was found. And
then that cruel young" man laughed ! Fel-low-citizens,"
are bur' unsuspecting infants
to be thus deprived of tlie ' results of their
skill and enterprise and the tyrant to go un
punished ?
Disturbance an Sunday.
5 'The entire neighborhood in the vicinity
of Brunswick,5 between Fifth and Sixth
streets, .-was disturbed i and thrown into
commotion Sunday morning, ! aoout iu
o'clock, by disorderly! proceedings in a
house occupied by colored people, which
consisted of cursings swearing, fighting,
&c, - As it was about time for services in
tfie . various churches, and people In that
quarter of the cityj were wending their way
to the different, houses of worship, tbe con;
duct of this obstreperous crowd was ren
dered the more objectionable... The ring
leaders in the disturbance,! females, con
sisting of 'Caroline Frank, Charlotte Bryan,
Susan Frank and Eva Harris, were arrested
and lodged in the Guard House, where
they will await a hearing before the Mayor
