PERSON COUNTY.
Last week we planted our fcot tor tte

and Monday night lound us comforta

Glenn Hotel, in the town of Roxboro,
the county seat.
Person, named in honor ot General
Thomas Person, of Granville county, (a
very distinguished man in his day) is
located on our northern border, and one
of the tier of tobacco counties, where
the people are more prosperous, better
contented, better oft, more liberal, more
kind, more hospitable, better fed, wear
better clothes and more of them than in

SUPERIOR COURT
opened its Spring term on Tuesday

John W. Graham of Orange ; Hon. Jno.
themselves by firing off their guns and
pistols, and cursed and abused several
citizens. Their conduct ought to be
looked into, and if they acted in the
manner that we are informed they did,
they deserve to be court-martialed and
punished; and we should be glad to Lear
that it was done. The people have a
ri"ht to ask that soldiers sent among
them be made to conduct themselves
properly, ana we respectfully request
Supervisor Perry to look into this mat
ter." "On the march of the expedition, a
short distance out, a Republican reports
that Mr. Berry halted for the night, and
on leaving in the morning attempted to
evade navment of the trifling sum of
five dollnrs for supplies furnished by a
poor woman of limited means, telling
her to "charge it to the United States
government." but was finally prevailed
on to pay the sum by a Sergeant and
seme others of the expedition."
i he whole story is talse from begin
ning to end, and has been hatched up
no doubt by some individual who was
connected with the attempt made to
evade the revenue laws of the United
States, and who has felt the result of
uiv energy in enforcing the law. None

The Milton Chronicle Man and
Our Local Chief. In the absence of
Captain Woodson, in attendance upon
Granville Court, we transfer the follow
ing to our columns from the last num
ber of the Milton Chronicle, it referring
principally to Captain W. and his
peculiar powers as a canvasser. 'Says
the Editor of the Chronicle :
'We, (the Senior,) attended Roxboro'
Court to solicit new subscribers, and
collect up "old scores," but we were not
very successful in either calling. We
left home feeling badly Monday evening,
and arrived at Roxborough luesday
morning at 10 o'clock. Found .but a
comparatively small-crowd on the Court
green and lei so unwell that we laid
our old carcass on a leather bed and
rested from our labors until evening,
when we sallied out and tilted against
Turner, of the Sentinel, Woodson, of
the Raleigh News, Cameron, ot the
Hillsboro Recorder iKh'Greearcf-th
Durham Tobacco Flint all ot whom
were drummers for their respective pa
pers. The first man we made a pass? at
Wis Wooflson, who stood with his
back to us, but before we put at him to
subscribe we discovered who he was
and letting go his coat tail we gave him
a cordial shake of the hand. Turner
now gathered the crowd to hear ''what
he knew &bout Farming, Public Print
ing, Rings, etc." We heard him on
Farming, and think he knows a heap
more on that branch of business than
Public Printing. In fact we are in
lavor of the State employing Turner at
a good salary to tell the people in every
county what he knows .about Farming
but he might as well drop that Pub
lic Printing talk and tell the Rings to
goto the devil with their rascality. Well,
hearing Turner's most excellent views
on Farming, and aware that we were
losing time while that fellow Woodson,
(said to be one of the best Local Edi
tor's in the State,) was flying around
and hauling in the subscribers, we
jumped up and made a brake ior a gen

crowd, to solicit his name but just as
we were in the act of button-holeing
the man we discovered it was our
triend - Cameron, of the Recor
der! Seeing a crowd of a dozen
men all huddled together and laughing
fit to split their sides, we made for it,
but when we got there, we found it was
Woodson amusing a party of "good
templars!" Before he got through
his yarn, however, we booked the names
of a couple ot the crowd, but candor
com pells us to confess that, unwell as
we were, we couldn't "keeo up" with
that fellow Woodson. Never mind !
we'll cet even with him yet. We

Transportation Scarce.
Washington, April 20. It appears
from a correspondence from act
ing Secretary of War Robeson,
General McDowtll, Commanding
the'. Department of the South,
who is now at New York,- and General
Emory Commanding at New Orleans,
that It was difficult to obtain transpor
tation for two companies of Federal
troops to Grant Parish. The Regular
boats refused to carry the troops as it
would ruin their trade. Application
was made to collector Casey, who had
no means of transportation. Finally
Emory succeeded in chartering a vessel
for the especial service. The correspon
dence does not clearly show what the
troops are to do when they reach Col
fax, beyond preserving order.

Panama, April 20. The destruction
of San Salvador is confirmed. A popu

city within a radius of twenty miles
suffered more or less. The shocks con
tinued from the 4th to the 19th of
March, when the climax took place.
Fortunately such citizens as had not left
the city were living in the plazas, hence
the loss of life, though great, is much
diminished. The hotel del Plague, and
the Government palace only are left
standing. The loss is estimated at $12,

5,000. : ,
