We referred a few days ago ta a case be-
fere the Toombs , Pplice Court of New,
York, ; in which eae Lsmuil Williams,;
colored, who slated that he belonged in
this city, where he now has a mother re
siding, had brought a' charge against the'
sasbier of the Metropolitan; Hotel of that
city, one Merritt, to r the effect that be had'
swindled bim Out of the sum of fifty dol
lars. .The case! has been continued form
day to day, and seems to excite a great deal
of interest, Merritt being a man' of stand
ing and a nephew of the Collector of the
POrt. We"1makei"sortxTHcf from a
long report in the New Yb'ik un:
"Williams had been accustomed to say
that be was 21 years old; but when be. went
on board the &uppZv the officers questioned
bim about bis past life, and, after taking a
good look at him, concluded that be was
27. That makes him 23 now. He was bera
on Uie cotton and tobaeco plantation of his
master,' Daniel Moore, of Duplin county, .
N. C; sixty miles from Wilmington.' "His
mother tended the tilkwermsv and, when
be was a few year. ,old, he was taken into
tbe bouse, and thus escaped being a field,
hand; At the close Of the war bis father,
also named Lemuel, , went to Wilmington ,
where he drove a truck for a Mr. Sullivan
Afterward Colvtlle & Tavlor loaned .him
some money, with which be bought a truck

and in the . course of time ' became ' the
owner of two bouses, .v ; ' V f t
"In tbe meantime Mr. Colville had taken
young Lemuel into bis family. -Mrs. Col
ville took a lancy to bim. and taught bim
to read, write and cipher., He can cipher.

himself he'd let mm eov A. place was
