ty. The account Of the discussion between
Messrs. Ellis and McRae in Anson, published in the
Register no doubt misrepresen;ed the position Of
Judge Ellis in regard to further appropriations by
the State for internal improvement purposes. The
editor of the Wilmington Journal heard the discus
sion in Sampson, and from his account of it take
the following extract:
'Mr. McRae arose and stated that Judge Ellis had
said in Anson that he would recommend to the next
Legislature to make further appropriations for the
railroads in progress if the credit of the State
would allow He wished the position of himself and
his competitor distinctly stated and understood.
Judge Ellis said he had there taken the position
which he repeated-that no new appropriation
could be needed for either the Wilmington, Charlotte
and Rutherford Road the Western n. c. Road
that he believed the appropriations already made
would be sufficient to complete these works and at
any rate could not be exhausted for some years to
come-if these appropriations did not fully complete
these works he believed that it would be right and
polite for the State, when the time came to grant
the necessary assistance rather than to let works in
which she had taken so large an interest fail for
want of a comparatively very small amount of mo-
ney. He would allow the Western n. G. Road to
progress simultaneously both sides of the noun
tains. He would recommend to the next legislature
to treat the Fayetteville and Western Road we'll
it has already treated either Of the other two"

MYSTERIOUS PROCEEDINGS or THE RoBBERS.
= Sevcnty-ivc thousand dollars of the $50
600 stolen from the lIatter's Bank, at Bethel
Conn, was returned in mysterious man
ner to the New York police Office, on
"Wednesday last. The robbers found it
would not do to break up the bank, for that
would render their booty in its bills worth
less. They therefore returned all but SILL
600, enough to pay them literally for their
trouble. y bag was left at the police office

morning he was handed the bag, and warn

should prove to he some sort of internal ma

was found to contain something Soit-therc
was no indication of lead, Sings or 50 forth
about it.
y key was procured, and upon opening the
bag three packages of bills Of the HatterS

a Free Negro Kidnnpped.

The Shawnectown HiUoisaH, gives the
following in relation to an infamous out
rage: --1 r-~. ~f - s'-s- -
ON Sunday flle,l5i inst, likely negro
boy, some eighteen or twenty years OF age,
was arrested Us fugitive slave, few-miles
back OF our city, by two-or three individu-
ais, and brought into town. The bov stat
ed that he was free. that lie was born and
raised in Yi.o County, Indiana. lie n.pped
several gentlemen, residents of Terre Hanie,
with whom many oeour citizens were well
acquainted. He also slowed by his state
mcnts that he was well acquainted in the
town OF Greencistlc, aud the cities of In
dianapoliS and New Albany, Indiana. He
stated that he was barrier by, trade, ishad
been running on The rivet, and left tie
steamer J. ". McClay at coal yard a short
, DISTANCE below town, on the same day that
he WAS arrested and in consequence OF
difficulty that he had with the porter Of tie
boat, q eoloreg man. sr,ss F.
From the spPaTcnt truth Of all his state-.
mentS, aud from the iIIdisputJble faetofs his
being acquainted with many Of the prolni-
neGt citizens Of .Teftc uaute, indiana, there
seemed to lie no ,doubt mp the minds of
the h1rge mass of our citizens that the hoy
was free. And his captors were advised TO
Iooscns MS shackles AMI let him "a. As
they had no legal process 20 hold the boy,
they were also advised that, before they
could proceed further, they must take him
before a magistrate, sor the commissioner,
under the fugitive law, at this place, and in
vestigate the fact of his being q fugitive.
TO all this wholesome advice the eaptors
turned deaf ear, and with the assistance
OF a few others, forced him across the river,
into the State Of Kentucky, in the face of
the assembled crowd. On the next day the
parties returned and reported that the boy
had escaped from them, and they pursued
him into the river and lost sight OF him.
The unfortunate negro was found dead on
the next day and is now (at the writing of
this laying on the Kentucky beech, Oppo-
site this town, where he was drifted BY the
waves. rs he is ont of the jurisdiction OF
this State, no means have yet been taken TO
ascertain. the mode of his death. 81 'FES

Condition. OF LaIoring Men I'm the
-f. Eastern Cities.

The Philadelphia Press has the following
comments upon the lack of employ for
laboring men at tue East:
Many industrious mechanics and work
men in al our large towns and cities con-
tinue TO seek employment, in vain. It's TO
be feared that they have ret to feel the worst
effects of the panic of 1897. Immediately
after the crash, they h;td their savings left
to help them through The winter; their
credit was unimpaired, and shopkeepers were
willing 10 trust them 10 any reasonable ex-
tent, ia tlrc hope that abundance of employ
ment would soon furnish them with the
means OF repay mcnt But nearly wear
has elal,scd--their cash has bceff expended
their property mOrtgagcd or pawncd-
their credit almost destroyed. 1t j. true
that business has been slowly Yet steadily re-
viying, but so far not in a manner that has
materially benefited the condition or present
prospects of the toiling MASSES. Thousands
and tens of thousands Of worthy artisans
are at this moment out of employment and
for months past have either had no work at
all. or mere occasional Jobs from which they
have not realized enough To keep body and
soul together. The erection of new build
ings in which many persons ordinarily
find employment during tire summer, as
bricklaycrS, naSons, carpenters, laborcrs,
etc. has been almost entirely suspended
Nearly all classes OF mechanics and opera
tivcs have suffered similar dearth of en-
ploymcnt.
The spirit of rctrcnchmcnt is upon our
people. They buy fewer hats, coats, boots,
bonnetS, and less furniture, and require
smaller number of servants, than formerly.
Many manufacturing establishments give
little or no work TO those whose energies
were formerly fully employed by them
Thousands who had for years been constant
ly engaged, at the current wages, in pro-
ducing manufactures of iron, cotter or wool,
arc now idle all, or nearly all their time.-
This is a sa.l condition of affairs, and, il a
decided Improvement is not made before the
approach of winter, will result in untold
misery and suffering.
