Mr. J. B. Hussey, for many vears
connected with the press of this
State, is now making a tour of the
State as a representative of that
able and sterling paper the National
Democrat, published in the city of
Washington. It is not only one of
the ablest champions of Democratic
principles in this country, but as an
educator of the people in the great
issues which divide the Democratic
and Republican-parties it is without
a superior if it has an equal Aside
from the editorial ability which
characterizes it, its contributions
from distinguished and able writers,
and the speeches of Democratic Rep
resentative and Senators on the great
questions of the day which appear
week to week, make it an invaluable
paper to those who would be well
posted on the issues before the
American people.

done over again, and when they

they made peculiar remarks about
the whole census business.

WILMINGTON, N. .C, SATURDAY,
THE ALLEGED HIGHWAYMAN.
Dennis Horn Acquitted of the Charge of
Bobbing Alonzo Mollis and Convicted
of Assault and Battery on Alex Moore.
The trial of Dennis Horn, colored, on
two indictments one for highway rob
bery and the other for assault and bat
teryoccupied the greater part ot the
time of the Criminal Court yesterday.
The two cases were tried before different
juries, and resulted in an acquittal on
the charge of highway robbery and con
viction of assault and battery. Col. B.
R. Moore, Solicitor, conducted the
prosecution, and Col. A. M. Waddell,
attorney for the W O. & E. C R. R.
Co., appeared as counsel for the pris
oner. Alonzo Millis, a white farmer, the
complainant, testified that the robbery
took place about 3 o'clock in the after
noon of the 19th of June last, on the road
from Wilmington to Northeast Ferry,
about six and a half miles from the city.
He identified the prisoner as a man who
overtook him on the road, and walked
by the side of witness' cart, with a club
in his hand made of a piece of scantling.
Millis suspected the man of some evil
design, and took his money out of his
pocket and put it in the bottom of the
cart. As soon as he did this the man
jumped into the cart, seized the money
and jumped out again. Just then two
men came out of the bushes in a threat
ening manner, and prisoner said to
them, "don't strike him, I've got the
money.
The prisoner was also identified by
other witnesses for the State. Mr. Jack
son, who lives on the road, four miles
rora the city, testified that on the day
mentioned Millis stopped at a well in
front of Jackson's house about 2 o'clock.
Went out to speak to Millis and saw the
prisoner drinking water at the well.
After drinking he went up the road
ahead of Millis. Was positive that the
prisoner was the man.
A colored woman living near Jack
son's place, saw Millis, Jackson and a
colored man at the well on the day and
at the time mentioned, and to the best
of her knowledge the prisoner was the
man.
Another witness for the State, Mr.
Harrell, testified that he was on his
way to the city in a cart and met Millis
in the road, a colored man walking by
the cart. He swore positively that the
prisoner was that man.
It was claimed by the defence that the
prisoner on the day on which the rob
bery is alleged to have occurred, was at
work on the W. O. & E. C. railroad, at
Scott's Hill. Mr. W. B. Goodwin, track
layer on the road, said he was at work on
the 19th of June with the prisoner,
twenty-one miles from Wilmington;
prisoner worked all day, and was paid
for a full day's work. Mr. Brockman,
track engineer on the road, testified
that he was certain that the prisoner
was at work on the 19th of June.
Anthony Brown, colored, worked with
prisoner; and testified that prisoner
went to work on the 19th of June and
worked three hours, laying track, when
they knocked off.
The case was given to the jury in the
afternoon, and a verdict of not guilty
was returned.
The prisoner (Horn) was then put
upon trial for assault and battery on
Alex. Moore, a colored farmer, who was
attacked on the road on his way home
from the city on the 25th of June, by a
colored man, whose object was supposed
to be robbery, and who struek Moore
with a club, but was frightened off by
Moore's cries for help. Six witnesses
swore most positively that Horn was
the man seen on the road near the place
where the robbery occurred, and Moore
also was positive that prisoner was the
man who assaulted him.
The prisoner's defence, as in the first
case, was an alibi, and the same wit
nesses testified in his behalf that he was
at work on the railroad on the 25th day
ot June. In this case, however, the
prisoner was found guilty, the jury
bringing in a verdict at night after Court
had adjourned.

ANNUAL ENGAMPMENT.
THE NORTH CAROLINA STATE
GUARD.
A Rainy Day in Camp Arrival and
Eeception of Gov. Fowle Musical
Entertainment by the Y. M: C. A.
Visitors at the Camp.
The appearance of the weather yes
terday morning was not favorable for a
pleasant day, yet none of the regular
exercises were neglected, and at the
proper hour the "Hornet's Nest," Rifle
men, Capt. Robinson, and Co. Capt,
Perry; the companies detailed for escort
duty, and preceded by the Third Regi
ment band, under the command of Maj
E. ;C. Harrell, proceeded to Wrights
ville station to receive and escort Gov.
Fowle, who was to arrive on the morn
ing train irom Wilmington, to head
quarters. The Governor arrived in due
season, accompanied by Col. T. W.
Strange, of his personal staff, and was
met at the station by Adjutant General
Glenn, who conducted him to the car
riage which was in waiting for him. The
line of march was immediately taken up
for camp, where they arrived about half
past ten o'clock. Arriving in camp the
Governor was conveyed to the
quarters of Quarter Master Gen
eral Olds, where met the staff
officers of the camp; the latter in full
uniform. As both regiments were
drawn up in line of battle when the
Governor arrived they wheeled into
columns of companies and passed in
review at once, the officers saluting and
the men with arms at a "carry" as they
passed. They marched with soldierly
precision and bearing, and deserve com
mendation for their fine and correct
marching,
The review having been accomplish
ed the men were dismissed, and the line
officers came forward and greeted the
Governor, who had a pleasant word and
a cheery smile for all.
During the day arrangements were
perfected for to-night's concert.- The
concert will be given under the
auspices of the Y. M. C. A., and the
programme will be as follows:
Forepaugh's Aggregation Overtuer,
Southall, by Third Reg't band.
Recitation (Parrhasius and tha Cap
tive), J. E. Tingle, Henderson Guards.
Serenade (Pleasant Dreams), Ripley,
by the band.
Recitation (poem original), "The Un
known Drummer Lad." Tasker Polk,
Warren Gnards.
Quartette (Whispering Hope), R. B.
Boyd, H. Williams, W. K. Williams, W.
R. Watson, Warren Guards.
Recitation (comic), "John Smith," by
J. R. Wilder, Hornets' Nest Riflemen.
Fantasia (Chit-Chit), Herndon, by the
band.
There will be religious services at the
Y. M. C. A. tent to-morrow (Sunday)
evening, conducted under the auspices
of the Association, in which it is ex
pected that some of the prominent mem
bers of the Guard will take an active
part.
The threatening weather kept many
from the camp groondswho had intend
ed to utilize their weekly half holiday by
a visit to the soldiers, although a large
number went from the city on all the
the evening trains. They passed the
hours in rambling around the camp un
til the hour for drill and dress parade,
when they flocked to the guard line to
witness the manoeuvres, and were deep
ly interested spectators of a few of the
duties of soldiers in time of actual war.
It was an interesting exhibition to the
young because they had seldom seen
even the semblance of war, of which it
was a counterfeit, and to the elderly be
cause it brought mournful memoirs of
those sad and trying days when they
saw such scenes with hearts beating
proudly, but in anxious solicitude for
loved ones who were in'the ranks, soon
to leave them never more to return.
Knocked Down and Robbed.
Police Sergeant Bender, while making
his rounds last night, found a colored-
man at a negro lodging house on Water
street, who said he had beeu stopped
near Parsley & Wiggins' mill, coming
from Meares' Bluff, last night, by five or
six men, who knocked him down and
robbed him of four dollars in money
The man gave his name to the Sergeant
as Mack Taylor.

It was not a bad case.
Commissary General Cantwell is in
camp, and although his military service
dates back to the Mexican war, he is as
lively and fond of military life as the
most enthusiastic recruit, of less than a
year's experience.
While the rain fell in perfect tor
rents in Wilmington yesterday after
noon there was but a slight
shower inl
camp. The men were on dress parade
at the time and the shower was over be
fore they got very wet.
The Third Regiment Band are in

Conductors Lenmore and Phillips,
of the Seacoast Railroad, are having a
plenty of hard work but are polite, cour
teous and accommodating to the great
number of passengers, and are always
good-natured, under all circumstances.
Quite a number of soldiers, who
could not leave their homes and busi

ed for duty last night, and, we are sorry
to sav, that several were obliged to.

the same.
Lieut. W. A. Wynne, acting Adju

to deserve praise from the Commander-in-Chief.
If the weather is favorable a
great number of visitors from the city
will be present.
The Y. M. C. A. headquarters is
about the busiest place in camp. It is
provided . with plenty of chairs, tables,
conveniences for letter-writing, besides
being supplied with many of the State
