The Deraociatic Campaign Club met at the court house last evening, and the fact that Mr. W. II. Oliver was to address the members on tho silver qnestion, brought out a large crowd in spite of the excessive warmth of tbe weather. The pre liminary business being disposed of Mr. Oliver ascended the rostrum amid a storm of applause. He said, that on account of his being unaccustomed to public speak ing that the audience must not ex pect too much of him, but that he would give the facts of the great campaign as nearly as he could. "We claimed that the depression of business and suffering of the American people was caused to a large extent by the Act of Congress in 18T3. which demonetized silver, and made gold alone the standard of value." He quoted the laws relating to the legal tender of silver and gold coins, and exhibited a before-the- war dollar, which, he claimed, had paid more just and honorable debts than any 1000 gold dollars. "The demonetization of silver," Mr. Oliver continued, "was accom plished through the mediums of fraud and perjury, as was evidenced by General Grant's public letter after the passage of the bill, in which he acknowledged himself ignorant of the true nature of the bill when be signed it." He qaoted some lines from one of tion. J. O. Carlisle s sneecnes in. the House some ten years ago. in which that gentleman declared "that the gold standard, if con tinned, would be more disastrous for this country than war, pesti leoce, and famine." "To realize the truth of this prophecy," Baid Mr. Oliver, "it only necessary to read the daily papers." lhe remarks of Mr. Uuver were interrupted by frequent bursts of applause, and everyone who heard it declared it a masterpiece on the money question. Mr. M. DeW. Stevenson was then filled npon and responded in a stir ring speech of a few minutes dnra tion, in which he pleaded with all true Democrats to stand by the party. Mr. H. B. Hardy of the News & Observer was then introduced to the audience and made a very pleasing address. Before Mr. Oliver began a ing one of his numerous lady friends presented him with a beautiful em blem of tbe great issue.

The young man at the time of his death was engaged in driving a wagon load of tobacco from his father's place to llenry Davis'. A little brother, aged ten years, and a nephew fifteen years old, were also in the waeon. The two boys were securely wrapped up in cloths, etc., to protect them from the rain which came down in torrents. Vivid flashes of lightning followed each other in rapid succession, until one seemed to direct itself toward the moving vehicle. The shock was so great that the horses as well as the persons in the wagon were severely shocked and they came to a standstill. As soon as the two boys had suf ficiently recovered from the shock to throw off the'.r covering they met rith a greater shock than that of the ightning, by finding Mr. White dead, lying on the outside of the wagon, at the horses heels, with his neck broken. Shocked to insensi bility he had fallen from the wagon and broken his neck. The deceased was a son of Mr. E White, and a most exemplary young man, frugal and industrious, a pride of his parents, and respected and admired by all who knew him, and this untimely ending of a life so promising is a sad bereavement to his family. They have the full sympa thy of the entire community. A SUNDAY DISTURBANCE. Jftmett 1 lly Wllill.v Fuelled Ovrr i no Altrmpl lo A r rent i Jinn. Troulilr lrf(l ntOneTlme. A Full Iteporf I nil SiUra ol ill? Affair. There was considerable exciteinen t in this city Sunday afternoon over various reports which came from I .lames City, across the river, that a shooting had taken place, and two while deputy sheriffs had been nearly lynched by a colored mob. These rumors gradually increased, until it seemed possible that a gen eral npriping had taken place in James City and New Berne brought in danger. After careful investigation tho cause of the excitement was discov ered, which wa5 that an attempt had been made to arrest a colored man, by two deputies from Beaufort county. The story is as follows: Early in May, a colored man, John Kooncc, living in Bath, Beaufort Co. made an assault upon his wife. An order for his arrest was issued, and when tho deputy and constable went to arrest Koonce, the negro with some friends resisted, nearly killing the two officers. After this tight Koonce disappeared, and a procla mation from Gonernor Carr, out lawed the man. Last Friday, word was brought, to Irving Rumley, deputy Sheriff, of Beaufort county, that Koonce was in James City, near New Berne. Rum ley, not knowing Koonce by sight, deputized L. T. Thompson, who knew the negro, and last Saturday the two men drove over from Au rora to New Berne. Assisted by the police of this city, the phuje where Koonce lived was found, and in company with deputy sheriff Li Roque of this city, Rumley and Thompson went over Sunday noon to arrest their man. Coming up to tho house where Koonce was staying, the three offi cers found him sitting on the porch, whittling. LaRoque addressed the negro, whoaid his name was John King, and said they had been book ing for him for some time. Without a word, King or Koonce, made a rush for the front gate, striking at, but not hitting Rumley, who was in the line of his rush. Rumley drew his pistol, whereupon the negro turned back and ran through the house, Rumley pursuing, calling upon him to stop, at the same time firing three shots at the escaping man. Tho negro made uo stop tut running fast left Rumley, who when lie got into the street was surrounded by a crowd of excited negroes, who knocked him down, bruising him somewhat, he also receiving a cut in the back of his coat, which however did not injure him. Escorted by the crowd, Rumley was led to the river, but several of the older negroes coming up and counselling fair treatment, Rumley was released and told to get back to New Berne. In stead of heeding this, as soon as he was free, Rumley bravely turned back to seo what had become of his partner, Thompson, Mean while Thompson, who had gone ont the front way to head off Koonce, had got sight of his man, and following him, pursued and pursuer ran through o crowd of peo ple, who were coming out of church. Tho excitement by this time was very great and all kinds of cries were heard shrieks .of "murder" and "catch him" and "lynch him.'' Thompson had added to the hub bub by firing twice at the running man. In climbing over a fence, Koonce broke the fence and fell to the ground. Thompson, with the crowd behind him, was upon Koonce and raising his pistol he was about to shoot at the negro, when his arm was struck with a piece of stick, his pistol fell out of his grasp, and him self knocked down. A number of wild threats were made by the crowd against Thomp- 1 , l Tl . . . 1 . . son, Dut ne was nnauy lasen iu charge by the colored justice, Wash ington Spivey, who took him to his office, where Rumley was brought. A warrant was issued against Rum ley and Thompson charging them with shooting pistols and disturbing the peace, and they were escorted to New Berne to be confined in the jail in this city. I'pon arrival here, the party met oherin: Lane, who convinced the colored men that their prisoners were lawful officers, and they were released. During the excitement Koonce disappeared, and no trace was found of him. There were reports that the negro had been shot in the hand, but nothing reliable to verify this could be found. Robert R. Davis, colored, deputy sheriff, in James City, made the fol lowing statement to the Joi i;x.u. concerning the affair: I was sitting in 1 . J. Lees house talking with his wife when a man ran past the door. I didn't see him but Lee said he saw In in. Still no attention was paid to it. A few moments lateiHT man came running up to the house and said that the man who had run past had cut to death a man bv the name of Joe Scott down at the bridge. I excused i myself, saving that I had better go and see about it, and went out. When I got to Reddy Polk's corner, which is about fifty yards from the railroad, I met the crowd with Thompson. I said to the crowd, Stand Back! I am the officer here if this man done wrong the law will have to take its course. "Washington Spivey was there, and he and I took Thompson in charge. There was two hundred or more people standing around and talking as men will when they are excited. ! "Spivey and myself took Thomp son n p to the shop. ' j i d )' i ' 1 1 lie Ins fret and "ban ds 1 an-1 hick hi in up?" u as asked. "No sir. he was takeii to the shop , and tht-r.' lie .sal down and ti led to .explain liow it was to Spivey and ! myself We wouldn't let anybody ; else come in the house. 1 kept tell I ing them to stand away from lhe door, that they shouln't touch the ! man, that the law had to take its i course. j Thompson was so exited that ho at first denied having a' pistol, bub ; when he found out that we were going to protect l:im, be admitted j ha ing one. j "lie said he came there lawfully. We asked him what lie had to show to prove what he said. He didn't ;hae anything, h" said. L-i IJ icpio ! bad the papers, but La Lupae hadn't , been seen by either one ot us. And j it looked like, ami the people I thought, that Thompson had come 'over there to fight. After we had been at tbe shop lor about bait an hour a man come up and said that ; the Deputy Sheriff wanted to see line down the railroad. Then I summoned several men "whom I j thought understood what law was, j to protect Thompson, while I went i down the railroad. I met ilr. j Rumley down there. He came up 1 Til T .1. .Ii and suooK- nanus aim wanted 10 know where Thompson was. He had come to look for his partner, and he showed great grit by coming back and not deserting his partner. I carried him up to the shop with me and there we stayed a while. "It seemed funny that two men, perfect strangers, should come over there and shoot at a man lawfully and still not have any badge, paper, or any sign in the world to s4iov that they come by authority. Finally Spivey and myself deci ded to bring them to town. The men wanted to know if we could bring them safely through the crowd. I assured them that nobody should touch them, but they were kinder skittish. With the men that had been summoned we brought them safely to town, and when we got there, we were told that the men were what they represented themselves to be. "I want to say that James City, ain't no cloak. They try to make it out that a man can't be arrested over there. It ain't so. If Mr. La Roijue had stayed there with the two strangers, there would not have been any trouble. As it was the people thought the men were fght ing and it being about o o'cIock in the afternoon, when all the churches were in session, a big crowd quickly gathered. "One umbrell and one pistol has been returned and I am making every effort to find the other pis tol." Talking about it with Deputy La Roque, he said : "I went after the negro with Dep uties Rumley and Thompson. When we came to the house where the negro was I said to him, John I have been looking for you a long time. I have a warrant for your arrest. "Alright," said John, as he stood up. He took it so quietly that I thought we wouldn't have any trouble, but he had a knife in his hand, so I to be certain about it caught hold of him with one hand and with tho other pulled oat the warrant and began to read it to him. lie made a move and I think ing that he was going to cut me, grabbed him with both bauds, and turned him around so that he faced Rumley, then it was thnt Rumley began shooting. Bullets living all around me, one went through my sleeve. I gave the negro a shove towards Rumley, and got out of the way of the balls. When I turned the negro loose ho set out in a run. The negroes began to gather and to make threats. A colored woman veiled that her child had been killed "in its cradle. I tried to explain to them that we wee doing tbe shoot ing lawfully, thatJKoonce was out lawed, but the more we tried to ex plain the madder the crowd got. One great big negro grabbed hold of my arm, almost tearing it off, and asked me if I killed his child. I told him no. Then they got after Rumley and he told them, that I told him, to do the shooting that was putting me fn bad light, but a negro man standing in the crowd said that Rumley was a liar, that he he had heard me tell Rumley not to shoot. That fellow did me a great kindness by telling the crowd what he did. I was turned loose. Thomp son had already been carried off by a mob. When they turned me loose a negro told me that J had better go for assistance, and seeing that I couldn't persaude the mob to behave I set out for New Berne in great haste to bring aid to tho two men in the hands of the negroes. I paid the ferry boat boy extra to row as fast as he could and to wait for me at the dock. I got sheriff Lane and others and started back to James City, but as we were leaving a boat came up with Thompson and Rumley aboard. I don't believe there would have been any trouble if it hadn't been for the women talking about a child being killed. '' Elisha Bemby, colored, was ar rested and brought before S. R. Street, J. P. yesterday. He was charged with resisting an officer and was bound over to court, being placed under a bond of one hundred dollars. A Xew Beriiinn Ilouoretl. Mr. Tims. 0.
