WILMINGTON,
A Colored man IV ho Never Voted the

"""Twiiy. !-,-;.:. . -j '
Thereis an old colored man living at or
near Rockingham, Richmond county, form
erly belonging to Col. Leake of that county,
who answers to the name of Mabrey Leake.
He is a man of more than ordinary intelli
gence and before the war was one of the
trusted servitors of his master, who allowed
him certain privileges not enjoyed by the
servants generally, j Through this means
tbe old man was able,' by the exercise of the
proper energy and economy, and after some
years of patient industry, to accumulate
nearly $800 in money. This amount, some
time after the war commenced, he convert
ed into silver and gold. Somewhat unex
pectedly as well as unfortunately for him,
when- Sherman's gallant cavaliers went
through that section some of them paid him
a ; visit, having heard, perhaps, that he
was the happy possessor of the small for
tune alluded to, and when they departed
from poor Mabrey Leake's hospitable dom
icil they bore with them the hard-earned
accumulations of bis labor and toilj leaving
him only about $3 60 in money, his watch
and pen knife. The old man called upon
the officer in command of the detachment
in that neighborhood and slated bis griev
ances, telling him that bis men had taken
every thiug;he had.with the exceptions men
tioned. The officer asked the man if $3(50
was all he'bad left, j
( " All !" replied he, taking the amount
from his pocket and placing it in the palm
of the officer's hand, which was extended
towards him.
j " And jour watch and knife wcie all the
trinkets they left you, weie ibt-y ?" akcd
the officer. j : . 1 . ,
I "My watch and knife were all, " replied
the old uian.as he took them from his pock
et aud placed them also into his. hand.
''That comprises everything of value your
meu left me.- I have.labored hard and
saved closely to get a little something to
gether t keep me in my declining years
and they have taken all but these."
j " Well, replied the brave soldier, we are
fgjtfing for yvu, and such small fatora as you
have been able to grant us serve, to com
pensate in some measure for what we have
done, and are now doingj for your race." -I
With these sage but not very consolinz
remarks the officer dismissed the old man,
not forgetting before doing so, however,
to exchange shoes with Mabrey, who had
on a very fine pair he had recently, pur
chased.' ..
And from that day to this, it is said, if
you want to make Mabrey Leake mad ask
him if he votes the Republican ticket!

The work of laying the telegraph' line
from Wilmington to Smithville was com
menced yesterday afternoon. .The line con
nects with the Signal office in the 4th story
of tbe New Hanover Bank building, from
thence crosses Princess street, follows it to
Water street, and runs from thence to the
foot of Market street. From this point a
submarine or cable line will be laid across
the Cape Fear River, then from the oppo
site side of the Cape Fear to Brunswick
River, which will be spanned by the wire
and from that point it will be continued to
Smithville by the old county road. It is
expected that tbe line will be completed to
Smithville by the 15th of October, when an
office will be established at that place im
mediately. L'

One Betty Faiswn, colored, became of

Satnrday night,' and cursed and abused her
very earnestly, -following up the war of
words with ' an assault upon her with a
bottle, with which she inflicted some quite
severe wounds upon tbe arm and other por

A warrant if as subsequently issued for
Betty Faisbh and ' she ' was arrested and
lodged in tbe Guard House the same night
" Taking advantage of the latter's incar
ceration, Julia1 Ford, on Sunday night,
waylaid Betty Faison'a little sister and gave
her a severe beating out of revenge for her
own treatment by the aforesaid Betty;
thereupon a friend of the latter had a war
rant issued for the.arrest of Julia Ford.

a judgment for $50 and the costs f or thirify

One of the members of the policd force,
Lo was off duty at the time, informs us
that he was taking a walk iu the extreme
southern portion of the city on or near Fifth
street, on Saturday, when he suddenly teard
the cries of some person apparently in dis
tress, almost immediately followed by the
appearance of a smalt colored boy, who
stated, amid cries and sobs; that he had
just encountered a colored girl who knock
ed him down and robbed, him of 50 cents
which he had in his pockets. The officer
instantly started for the scene of the rob
bery, which was near by, -but was just in
time to see the girl, who was apparently
nearly growni making the best sort of time
in an opposite direction. He gave chase
and kept Hp the pursuit until he reached I
Orange street, when he found that the girl
had so far outstripped him in" the race that
he concluded it was useless to pursue her
further. We learn that several robberies
of tbe same character have occurred in that
vicinity lately, and there are reasons for
supposing they were committed by the same
party. ' 1 ' 'Z '
