- A very gp&rse gathering of victims appeared
this morning before his honor.
2Th0 first was m case of juvenile pugnacity.
America ilolmes and Wm. Henry Smith went at
it in a most ferocious style ou Boney Bridge and
was arrested by one of our city guardians.
. - . 'Little chfldreu you should never let
Your angry passions rie
Jt'.'. i Your littiw haud -w ere never made
To scratch each otters eyea."
So the mayor thought and to guard their iras
ciole propensities invited them to a cool and
quiet retreat in the cells for the remainder of
the day.
Three young bloods made night hideous with
their direful noise.. They were arrested by
captain Berry who had previously respectfully
warned them of their movation on the quiet of
the city, but being stubborn they persisted.
The three were fined and dismissed.
k Abel Payne not the Abel killed by Cainc a
colored, youth of the tender age of ten years,
stole a cabbage from Mr. Ervin; upon being ac
cused of which he. denied it, stating that anoth
er boy presented to him the cabbage. The evi
dence was too strong, however, for Abel, as the
cabbage was found -in his possession and he
could not discover his youthful accomplice.'who
"give it to him." His father appeared in cour,
and the mayor with merciful judgment turned
Abel over to him on condition that he . would
give him a sound thrashing.

received by a gentleman in this city announces

of the triumph of religion over mortality. s It
was the most triumphant death'I ever witness

unto the last, and sunk gently to bleep in the
bosom of his Saviour, just as the rising sun
gilded the Eastern sky, on the .morning of
June 10th. '.'To my mind it seamed Bimbolici
His immortal spirit appeared t rise in giory

his death-bed are inede!iblj fixed in my mind,
and have lett impressions there that lime can

memory by the inhabitants,of Athens. Ilia
death is spoken of as a public calamity.. His

IHS UETXET1 XO XII c PitEsnirrE-
To the Editor of The Wumington Herald : j
; Lumbxktoh, 24th August, 1865.
Feeling, in common with all the citizens of
Robeson county, profound gratitude at your
expose of the conduct , of CoL Jss. SIne'air, I
furnish, you with some additional items in his
history, which you are at liberty to comment
upon, ana for. the, truthfulness of which I hold
myself responsible. Jin his elaborate letter
signed Veritas,, in rhe Prttbytericn Banner
(published at Pittsburg, Pa.,) he states that
o wing to - circumsl ancos over which h e eould
exercise no control he was once a slave' ewner.
The truth is ' he ? voluntarily bought and sold
slaves.. In addition to his buying slaves, an
unfortunate free ! negro, toko had r.tver- b?n a
tlave, vras confined in the county jail and sold
for the cost of his imprisonment, when thtt man
became the first bidder, and finally became the o wner
ofiieneihalf ' otatd boy, tcho tea carried to the
city of Wilmington and there told into perpetual
tlavery, leaving a wife behind him in theeaunty
of Robeson, this mAh pocketing half the pro
ceeds of the sa!e. ? .V This was in 1862. In rejrard
to his sale of-liquor there was no neoessfty for
your making a correction ia your issue of the
22d inst., as the taxi list for the county of Rob
eson shows that he reported profits on liquor sold
byhiaiself. .-This was on his. oath j s'So fat as his
loyalCy is concerned he expressed ' hi mself as
being iighlvgratifiect at the death of President
Lincoln, and but a few days since, iu the, pres.,
ence of several lespectable gentlemen, he stated
that he wished to. educate the negros and allow
them the privilege of voting so that if the north
again attempted, to trample on our rights we
could place over, a" million of negro soldiers in
the field and gain our independence. While the
confederate authorities were conscripting' per
sons and putting them in the army, before his
son was old enough to subject him to conscrip
tion, and when other persons were trying to
screen their sons from dabger, ' this humane aud
feeling father was trying to sell his son as a
substitute. The above facts can all be proven by
our best citizens.
Very respectfully, yours.
AX ANECDOTE OF A NOTABLE CHARACTER
To- the Editor of The Wilmington Ilerald.
During the attack on Newbern in '63 by Burn
Bide, a colonel of a volunteer North Carolina
regiment in the rebel service, seemed desirous
of showing his gallantry and acquiring a niche
in the temple of fame. Inspired with no ordina
ry enthusiasm he paraded his troops in a chosen
locality, where ; it was cooslder ed that v the foe
dould be best met andrepulped, then in a spirit
of martial arder he rode along the lines and
thuS. addressed his , brave companions in arms :
'Fellow soldiers, we will now make a stund"-
at this moment one of Bumside's shells dropped
in the vicinity too near to be pleasant or safe,
and he finished his sentence eotto voc; with
"about fourteen miles further back." The reg'
iment retreated and the fighting colonel is etill
a safe man. 1 .
