Mrs. Estelle Anna Lewis, a really
gifted Southern woman, has just
died in London. She was highly
praised by that acute and admirable
poetical critic, Edgar A. Poe, more
than thirty-five years since, as the
reader can see by referring to a pa
per on her poems to be found in his
works. The following we find in the
Baltimore Sun:
"Mrs. Estelle Anna Blanche Lewis, the
poetess, died suddenly in Loudon, Tuesday
night, of heart disease. Mrs. Lewis, who
was the daughter of Mr. J. N. Robiason, a
gentleman of fine estate, was born near
this city in April, 1824. Mrs. Lewis was of
great personal beauty, aa ber portraits re
veal, and she was married at the age of
seventeen to Mr. Sydney D. Lawn.a Brook
lyn lawyer. In that city and in Europe,
chiefly in England, she has since resided.
Her home in Brooklyn was a centre of re
finement, and in bis best days was a favo
rite resort of Edgar Allan Poe, Mr. Lewis
being one of bis warmest friends and most
generous vindicators. Her first volume of
poems, the 'Records of the Heart,' was
published in 1844, her last publications
"en me tragedies or Wappno in 1868, and

Raleigh iVcws- Observer: Mr

than a week ago by a gun, is nearly well.
We learn that the reason why Gen
Leach's vote is not so larsre as Mr. Bus-
bee's is that tbe county of Tyrrell omitted
the names of Messrs. Leach and Everett in
making up their returns. The col
ored Grand Lodge of Masons, which meets

At a social gathering at the residence

Arreat and Return of Two or tne
Kacaped Penitentiary convict.
Information having been lodged with
Justice Gardner to the effect that the no
torious Henry Crews and two other con
victs, who were among the party who es
caped from the guard in Jones county two
or three weeks ago, were at a house about
four miles from this city, warrants for
their arrest were placed in the hands of
Officers C. H. Strode, J. W. Whitney,
Daniel Howard and J. A. Ashe, who started
out on Tuesday afternoon last to endeavor
to effect their capture. Arriving at the
bouse in question, which was tenanted by
colored people, tbey found a number of
children and one man present, the latter
being a stranger to them. The questioned
the fellow and he indignantly denied ever
having been in the Penitentiary or know
ing anything about any escape. Notwith
standing his asseverations, however, it was
determined to fasten the "bracelets" upon
him as a matter of experiment, which
was done, and then one of the party,
while the others were looking around
to see what else could bo disco
vered, examined bis clothing and found
indisputable evidence of his identity as an
escaped prisoner in the striped penitentiary
garb which he wore beneath a plain suit of
citizen's clothing. He was thereupon
marched to the city and lodged in jail, and
it was further ascertained that his name
was Jim Borden, and that he belongs in
Franklin county.
About 8 o'clock tbe same evening, at the
house of EmelineCroom,mother of Henry
Crews, in this city, another of the convicts,
was arrested by tbe same officers, in the
person of E. Walker alias E. Barker alias
Charles Davis, sentenced for ten years
from this county for breaking into the
Cape Fear Tobacco Works building, in this
city. He, loo, was lodged in jail, and

Tne sensation ot morning Bob
bery and Snictde.
Tbe little town of Mt. Olive, on the
Wilmington & Weldon Railrond, was tbe
scene of considerable excitement Thursday
morning. First, the early risers discovered
that Mr. Robert Kornegay's store had been
broken open during the night and plun
dered to some extent, the object of the
thief, however, having evidently been
money; but the cash drawer, which was
found torn from its fastenings, contained
but little of ihe "needful" and the safe was
too much for the thief's capacity.
The next scene on the programme, which
was a very melancholy and tragical one,
occurred about 9 o'clock. Willie Soutball,
son of Mr. George Southall, of Magnolia,
Duplin county, shot himself in the fore
head, dying instantly. He was a machine
agent, had just driven into town in bis
wagon, and bad not been there five minutes
when he stepped off behind a building to

Considering the very inclement weather,
there was a pretty fair attendance at
the Lutheran church on tbe occa
sion oi the oint services on a nanus

he reading of the Introits and the opening
hymn by Rev. Dr. Bernheim, followed by
the reading of the 103d Psalm by Rev. Dr.
Yates, and tbe offering of prayer by Rey.
Dr. Wilson. Rev. Dr. Yates then read
the second hymn, which was followed by
an earnest, impressive sermon from Rev.
T. Page Ricaud, upon the 2d verse of tbe
03J Psalm "Bless the Lord, oh my soul.
and forget not all His benefits." Rev. J. B.
Taylor then led in prayer and read tbe last
hymn and pronounced the benediction, thus
closing the services of the hour.
Tbe Wood Famine
The scarcity of firewood in this city
continues to be a source of anxiety and is
really becoming a very serious matter, as
there will necessarily be much suffering
among those unable to pay the exorbitant
prices now demanded for fuel. Cannot
our jrailroad and steamboat lines come to
tbe rescue of our suffering citizens, and,
by furnishing transportation at reasonable
rates, induce persons to bring wood to the
city for sale ?

MRS. WINSLOW'S 800THING SYRUP. Rev.
Sylvanus Cobb thus writes in the "Boston Christian
Freeman" : We would by no means recommend
any kind of medicine which we did not know to be
good particularly for infants. But of Mrs. Wins
low's Soothing byrup we can speak from knowl
edge; in our own family it has proved a blessing
indeed, by giving an infant troubled with colic
pains, quiet sleep, and its parents unbroken rest at
igni. Most parents can appreciate these blessings.
Here is an article which works te perfection, and
which is harmless; for the sleep which it affords
the infant Is perfectly natural, and the little cherub
awakes as "bright as a button." And during the
process of teething its value is incalculable. We
nave frequently neard mothers say they would net
be without it from the birth of the child till it had
finished with the teething siege, on any considera
tion whatever. Sold by ail druggists. 25 cents a
bottle.
