Interesting Investleatloua i middle
found, in this Ceonty-lndlnn e-
. in. i:;fSrr 7 ;v , '
On Thursday last Rev. Dr. Bernheim,
President of the New Hanover County
Historical and Scientific Society, accompa
nied by Rev. Dr. Wilson, of the FirstPres
bytenan Church, and Mr. Edward Kidder,
visited the plantation of A. RBlaek, Esq!,
on Middle Sound, about ten miles below
this city, for the purpose of continuing the
investigations as to the character cf the re
mains already alluded to onsevtral occa
ions
as having been discovered on Mr. j pies, candy and other articles displayed in 1 g north ;Fuont stbaetw aiid respectfully in
l's land,which has attracted the atten- the same, and creating 'quite lively ex. oSSaiSS!ara fInqyW)cIr
Black
tion and enlisted the interest of auite a
number of the scientifically inclined in this
immediate section. They opened two burial
places on this occasion, and the one in which
the three skulls were found on Monday
last, referred to in the Star of Thursday
morning, there were discovered seven
skulls altogether, one of them that of a
child. These skulls, with the accompany
ing bones,-were in beaps, each to itself,
and in ; such a position as to suggest tbe
idea that the individuals to whom they be
longed had been in a. standing or sitting
posture while, undergoing the process ef
decay, and had eventually tumbled down
in heaps, with the bones at the bottom and.
the skulls on top. These remains, as before
intimated, bad to all appearances been
placed in a . trench prepared for the pur
pose, but without any particular order of
burial.
A. short distance from the above spot
another and complete skeleton was ex
humed, its position indicating that
tbe individual , had been lying on bis
back with his face turned to One
side. A root was found growing through
the skull, entering at the top and protrud
ing through the lower portion, manifesting
a softness of the skull which in itself would
suggest great antiquity
These remains were all found at a depth
of from one to three feet below the surface
of the ground; but this by no means indi
cates the depth of their original interment,
as, being in a sandy soil, the action of the
wind has no doubt brought them much
nearer the surface than thev were at first
placed.
The visitors, after as careful an investi
gation as tbe circumstances would permit
all came to the conclusion that the remains,
were those of Indians. This opinion was
arrived m chiefly from the mode of sepul
ture, the graves having been filled with oy
ster and clam shells, evidently conveyed
some distance for that purpose, which it is
safe to assume would not have been done
by while people, to whom the soil would
nave been considered so mucu more con
venient Tbe finding of an arrow head
and a specimen of Indian pottery in the
grave or trench was still further evidence
to our scientific explorers of the correctness
of their theory.
The jawbone of a deer,
with teeth attached, was also among the
relics found in proximity to the remains.
Six ;of ' the skulls alluded to as having
been found in the trench or grave were
brought to this city, and are now in the
possession of Mr. Kidder, who will be glad
to show them to any scientific gentleman
who may have a curiosity to see these in
teresting relics of a pre-historic age. The
other bones it was found impossible to re
move intact, as they crumbled and fell to
pieces when handled.
The mounds at tbe same place were not
visited on Thursday, but will form the sub
ject of investigation at some future time.
Dr. Thomas F. Wood was to have
formed one of the party, but was disap-
poiQted at ,he ,Mt momec;
we1 known pi,oto Smithvmet dled very
raddenl- at his residence in that place, on
Friday night last. He was sitting with his
I family, when he called to one of his chil-
I dren and told him to go after the Doctor,
J who lived just across the street, and before
the physician could reach him was speech
less, and died in about a half hour after he
was attacked. We did not ascertain the
character of the disease.
Almost a Fire.
There was a momentary fright occa
sioned in the neighborhood of Third street,
at ita intersection with Mulberry, yester
day. ' The soot in the kitchen chimney of
a residence in that locality caught fire
from tbe stove, and, falling in a burning
mass, ignited some of tbe woodwork about
tbe fire-place. A few buckets of water af
forded a prompt remedy.
Perjnrvt
Mason Holmes, colored, bad a hearing
before a magistrate yesterday morning on
the charge of perjury, alleged to have been
committed in a civil case tried before an
other magistrate a few days since. Defen
dant was ordered to give bond in the sum
of $200 for his appearance at the next term
of the Criminal Court, in default of which
be was lodged in jail.
Death In Jail.
Csesar Williams, a colored lunatic,' who
has been confined in the county jail in this
city for some time past, died yestet day.
He has been lingering for some time past
and death was no doubt a great relief to
him. He was between30 and 85 years of
age. --. ' m m- m

Arrested on Suspicion.
Mr.' John D. Burch, formerly of this city,
but how of Winston, states in a letter to us
from that place, dated on the 26th ult., that '
a negro corresponding to a letter with the
description given in the Star of Eli Be
th'une, who is alleged ' to have committed
the outrage on Miss McDuffy, near Laurinn
burg, recently, has been arrested in Stokes
county, thirty miles above Winston, and
the party arresting him has telegraphed to
the Sheriff of Richmond county, asking for
information. Tbe man has tried to escape
several times, and has given several differ
ent names..
Scrapa" at tbs Opera House.
Speaking of this piece, the Philadelphia
Item B&yB: "The Pathfinders entered upon
their third week with the same excellent
business they have bad heretofore, the Mu
seum being unable to bold all who were
anxious to see the amusing mdange . called
'Scraps," whose bright, sparkling dialogue
and catching airs do not ' seem to lose one
whit of their freshness. This is tbe last
week of tbe Pathfinders' present engage
ment here, and we advise all those who
wish to enjoy a real treat to see them.
Attention Sportsmen.
Under the law recently pasfed by the
Legislature the close season for partridges
begins April 1st. Any person who shoots
a partridge between April 1st and October
1st will be fined ten dollars for each offence.
All sportsmen should be on tbe lookout for
the nest robbers, as the same law makes it
an indictable offence to break up or rob a
partridge nest. . Tbe law applies to JNew
Hanover, Pender, Duplin, Sampson, Co
lumbus, Union, and some other counties
that we do not now remember.
Criminal Court.
In the Criminal Court yesterday, the case
of Ben Brown, (colored) convicted of per
jury some twelve months ago, came up for
sentence upon the prisoner. This case was
carried up to the Supreme Court upon ap
peal where the judgment of the Court
below was affirmed. The fact was estab
lished of previous excellent character by
a number of respectable witnesses. His
Honor listened to the prayer of mercy made
by defendants counsel and suspended judg
ment upon payment of costs.
