Says the Baltimore Gazette " For
the sake of the. dignity of humanity
we rejoice that there is one man who
stands erect in Washington amid the
wreck of the adnnnistration. That
man is Bristow. From first to last he
seemed to have done his duty as a
capable and conscientious officer, and
a an honest man. It is a sad thing
for a man to be isolated by simple
honesty, but lit isjie fact. Bristow
stands like a sort of Robinson Cru
soe in his lofieliness, or like Marias,
sitting among the ruins of everything
respectable in his party."
England procured the recall of

that did the business for the lively

as using his official influence to ad

The Late ttbbry on tbe wllmlag
. ion Sc Weldon Hoad.
In our issue of March 1st, we stated that
Deputy Sheriff Riveobark had arrived here
tbe day before with one William Divine
alias Big Bill, charged with stealing a trunk,
containing clothing, a valise, an overcoat,
two repealers and a watch, from the shanty
car connected with tbe gravel train of the
W. & W. It It, at this place. It appears
that Divine, bad been employed on the
gravel train, and on the day that the theft
was committed be suddenly disappeared,
having remained on tbe car when tbe rest
of the handsVent to work. A. short time
afterwards one. Stephen McNeill, who was
employed ou the gravel train when the rob
bery was committed; happened at Burgaw,
where he met Divine with some, of the
stolen articles in his possession. He (Mc
Neill) Immediately went before Justice J.
D. Scllars and made affidavit as to
the facts of the ' case, when Divine
was arrested and sent on here for exami
nation before Justice YanAmringe. All
of the articles stolen have since been
recovered, with the exception of the watch,
which was sold to a colored man in Duplin
county. This was said by McNeill to be
the property of Gilbert Manley, while the
remainder df the articles were identified by
him as the property of .Melvin Hamilton,
boh employees on the gravel train. She-
riff Harrell brought with him yesterday the
two "peaters and Yalise, which he deposit-

s. ; m 1 -4f t ,
etlKatID Before Janice Van-AmrluKe-Tastlmony
the Proae
entlnc WIlne and Olhera-Tbe
Case Dlamlnad.
It is well-known by most of our city
readers (the fects being withheld from our
columns by request until the investigation
should take place) that Mr. T. P. Sykes, of
. . . .
tbia place, was arrested on Monday night
last and lodged in 1ail until the followine
0 w
mornin&r. when he was bailed out. charced
on the affidavit of a colored man. named
Randall . Mayo, with having tried to induce
him to burn a certain house, the property
of Mr. Sykes, located on Sirfth street, near
the W. & W. R. R. The circumstances at
tending tbe arrest were the cause of very
general indignation in the community at
the time and has been the subject of much
comment since. 'The visit to his house at
the hour of midnight, and his incarceration
in the county jail 'without allowing him' the
time and opportunity of giving tbe bail
provided for in the warrant issued by Jus
tice VanAmringe, although he declared his
anxiety and ability to do so, were well cal
culated to cause a feeling of grave concern
among our people.
The case came,' up for a hearing before
Justice YanAmringe, in tbe Court House
yesterday morning, ex-Judge Russell and
M. London, Esq., appearing for the defence,
and J. H. Smythe, colored, for the prosecu
tion.'
Randall Mays, the prosecuting witness,
was sworn and put upon the stand. His
testimony was to tbe effect that on the 4th
of December last he was approached by
Mr. Sykes, in the market house, about dark;
that Mr. S. took him to one side, there being
a crowd of people in the market house at
the time, and told him that he wanted him
to move into his house; that he could have
it rent free, and that he wanted him to burn
it, saying that be would pay him $50 if he
would do so. In answer to a question by
counsel, witness - said that he did not
promise to burn the house, but stated
that be moved in it on the 6th of Decern
ber, two days after the proposition was
made. rHe mentioned another interview
that took place at Mr. S.'s shop, about
three weeks ago, when witness says Mr.
S. proposed to him to move to Hilton,
where he was to have a house rent free,
and the two together should come back and
stick fire to the house; said Mr. S. showed
him his insurance papers. In answer to a
question by counsel, witness Btated that
Mr. bvkes met him on tbe street on a
Thursday, a week or so ago, and told him
he wanted his house, and that he must
move; said Mr. S. did not say anything
about rent due; denied that Mr. S. told
him if he didn't get out by a certain day
he would have him put out.
' Witness told a pretty straightforward
tale, but told it lfke a school boy would
recite a , lesson. Interruptions bother
ed him, and when Mr. London called
his attention to contradictions in bis state
ments, he remarked, "Well, you skips
about so ! "
Witness admitted that he was taken tp
task when he was in the employ of Mr. J
F. Garrell, two or three years ago, about
some tallow that had been taken from a box
in which it was kept and placad in a bag;
but said Mr. G. did not accuse him of steal
ing it In reply to a question by counsel,
.he said that he was discharged, three days
afterwards. This was the substance of
Randall Mayo's testimony.
Mr. Garrell was next called and sworn.
Said that alter hearing Mr. Sykes state
ment in regard to his arrest, &c., in which
he mentioned that Mayo was indebted to
him for rent, and that he had told him he
must get out of the house, and also the fact
that on the. night of his (S.'s) arrest
his rice fields had been flooded and
other- property damaged,
he went to
see Mavo ana camionea mm to ue
- a ? 'a i
careful how he pushed the prosecu
tion against Mr. S., unless he had good
grounds for his action ; intimating that be
(Mayo) should take no such i step to be
avenged on Mr. 8. for anything he had
done. Said Mayo showed no disposition
to back out from his statement Witness
said that Mr. '8. did not say that Mayo
damaged his property, but seemed to think
it looked suspicious. Referred to the matter
about the tallow, in response to question
Said that he traced the matter up, and was
quite positive that Mayo had taken it from
box and placed it in the bag, and hence
diicnargea nun ; out erapwyeu mm auw
wards to do carpentering. Testified as to
the good character maintained by Mr. Sykes.
Special Deputy C. H. Strode was called and
sworn, but his evidence was immaterial
to tbe case, only tending to' exonerate the
magistrate who took tbe affidavit, and
upon leaving the stand, Judge Russell, of
defendant's counsel, invited a statement
from the magistrate himself which was in
substance as follows:
He received the first message about ten
o'clock, calling him to go over the railroad
and see about the matter; that he refused to
go, saying that the next day would be time
enough to attend to it. - About 11 o'clock,
after he was in bed and asleep, he was
aroused by a knock at his door, and. upon
going down, he received a second message,
which? was to the effect that Mr. C. HusselC
who owned property in the neighborhood
of Mr. Sykes' hbuse,::was anxious. that
he should come - to -' his - 'store and
see himi . as . . he"--:, and 7otheia in
the neighborhood' were : afraid;. j goto
sleep.' ; Under these circumstances he
thought it incumbent upon him as allagis-
trate to go; that ie went to Mr. Husself s
Btore, where he was informed of what
Mayo bad said about Mr. Sykes proposi.
N. C., WEDNESDAY.
tion to him; that he then went to Mayo's
house, when the latter repeated the state
ment, whereupon, after warning him as to
the consequence of swearing to a false
statement in such a matter, he prepared the
affidavit and it was sworn to by Mayo. The
warrant was then issued and placed in the
hands of Special Deputy Strode, for the
arrest of Mr. Sykes, a justified bond in the
sum of $1,000 being required of him for
his future appearance. Said tbat he would
not have gone when summoned the second
time but for the apparent impoitance of
the case and the necessity for his so doing.
Tbe case was argued by Judge Russell,
who was followed by T. H. Smyth for the
prosecution, when Mr. London rejoined. ;.r
Justice YanAmringe then dismissed the
case, staling tbat the evidence was insuffi
cient in his opinion to warrant tbe binding
over of the defendant to Court ' ' !
The Late SnrKlarr In Cape Fear,
, TewnenlPa 4te. - t -
Mr. Moses D. Motte, of Cape Fear Town
ship, in this county, whose smoke house
was broken open on tbe night of Tuesday,!
tbe 29th ult.an account of which appeared
ia our paper on the succeeding Friday,
was in town yesterday, and gave us Ahc
following facts in regard to the matter, He
says the whole amount stolen was twenty
hams and twelve shoulders, and his mule
(but not the carl) was taken by the thief
for tbe purpose of bringing the meat to the
city. Two of the hams were found at bis
son's store, the remainder having been sold
to other parties previous to the visit of the
thieves to the store of Mr. Motte, Jr. Five
of the h:ima were found in the store of
another part) in Brooklyn,, who said he
would know the . man of whom be pur
chased them, and that his name was Fen-
nell. Mr. Motte had Wm Fennell (col
ored) arrested and .- examined, but he
proved not to be the man. The proprietor
of the store in which the five hams were
found was arrested Monday, at the instance
of Mr. Motte. and he was bound over on
the ground that he could not give satisfac
tory evidence as to where he got the meat,
or from whom he purchased it As yet,
Mr. M. has no postive clue as to the perpe.
trator of the theft
In February Mr. Motte had all his tur
pentine boxes, some ten thousand in num
ber, together with all his rails, burned by
an incendiary, and has had Catharine
Durden bound over for the. offence for her
appearance at the next term of the Superi
or Court i
The night his meat was stolen, Mr.
Mott says his dogs were away from home.
Just before the fire alluded to above, Mr.
M. found a little pig at his gate, wrapped
up, and which, upon investigation, was
found to be poisoned, being evidently in
tended to kill his dogs. The same week he
lost half of his shucks. '
Fire In Bladen. :,
The residence of Mr. W.M. Pridgen,
four miles from Clarkton, Bladen county,
formerly the Dr. Shipman place, was ; de
stroyed by fire Tuesday morning, ' having
caught from a cooking stove. The burned
building is described as a large and ele
gant farm house. We think its location
was just within the Columbus county line.
The proprietor succeeded in saving most
.of his furniture. . I
Mr. A. J. P. Giddings' house at Bladen
boro, on the Carolina Central Railway.was
also destroyed by fire, on Monday night
last, about 10 o'clock, supposed by some to
have been the work of an incendiary. The
burned building, together with a store ad
jacent, both occupied by Mr. Giddings,
were the property of Messrs. J. & C. Ivey,
of Uladenboro.
Our informant was unable to state
whether the buildings were insured or not.
Willie Luce, hence for Rock
port, reached Vineyard Haven 3d. i
