FREEDMEN IN NORTH CAROLINA.

The Freeomen's Bureau has received full
and complete report of the number and con-
dition of the freedmen in the sub-districts of
Hillsboro, Greensboro, Salisbury and Char.
lotte, N. &.
At Hillsboro there are II colored persons re-
ceIving rations from the Government. Greens
boro is the headquarters Of the bureau for fl
counties of the State, and on the 18th instant
the date of the report, there were 800 persons
receiving rations. Firty five of these are in
Government buildings, and 206 are scattered
through the town and adjoining counties.
There are over thirty buildings of various sizes
in possession of the Government at Green's
boro, formerly owned by the rebel Govern
ment.
There are in camp at Salisbury 1O7 freedmen,
62 of which are receiving ratIons. Here the
Government has seven buildings, and the col
ored population Of the town is from three to
four thousand.
At Charlotte there are 292 freedmen in camp,
nearly all of whom are receiving support from
the Government. The camp at this place con-
slsts OF poorly constructed huts of rough shin
giles, and out of the large number of people in
camp only 6S belong to the District the balance
being principally from Virginia, Georgia, and
South Carolina. Since June last JOS negroes
have been sent from this place to their homes,
or where they might earn livelihood.
Every freedmen's camp in North Carolina
has been inspected by the medical officer in
charge, and if better buildings are not provi.
ded there will be much suffering this winter,
as it will be impossible for the people to live in
the old worn out tents they now have.

resistance, swearing that he would die sooner
than be taken; but the detectives were too
many for him. He was knocked down, dis,
armed, and speedily lodged in the Raymond
street jail
The arrest was kept a profound secret, to
give the detectives time 70 effect the seizure OF
the plates, tools, and counterfeit money, al
ready manufactured At PhIlsdelphia, which
they were unable to do prior TO the arrest
Iney also knew of $4,000 in the fraudulent
currency which the manufacturer had brought
with MN 10 Brooklyn, and which they hoped
to procure. After lodging their prisoner in
confinement, they Immediately set out for
philadelphia, found the mill and seized its con-
tents, comprising the plates, tools presses,
$4,000 worth of the fraudulent currency all in
ffy-cent postage stamps. Some of il was in
an unfinished state, but the detectives declare
that the completed issues would have deceived
them instantly; that they would never ha We
doubted their genuineness. But they were
outwitted by the prisoner so far as the counter
feits in Brooklyn were concerned. During the
absence of his captors, Roberts managed to
have the following letter conveyed to his mis-
tress and confederate:
BROOKLYN, November - 1S65.-Mary-
Please go at once when you receive this and
tell Louisa to come and see me at once. Ten
her 10 clean things dUdy. L am at Raymond
Street Jail. Please 60 some roundabout way
and take care nobody follows you. Tell Lou
lisa to keep cool. am all right Do this right
away, please, tonight and oblige yours.
CHAs. J. ROBERTS.
Mrs. Lloyd, corner North LIST street and Sd
This note was conveyed TO the above adj
dress by the brother of the Sheriff who had the
prisoner in charge, whence il reached ''Lou-
isa," who, of course, "cleaned things away"
much to the disappointment Of the detectives,
when they called for the purpose of making
the seizure. The guilty brother of the Sheriff
has fed, and has thus far effected his escape.
The detectives are now in pursuit OF con-
federate Of Roberts, and they are quite conf
dent of soon capturing him. Since his incar-
ceratIon, Roberts has confessed everything.
He says that the plate which has been seized
was intended for his final and greatest effort.
If the detectives had only held off for another
week, he would have made Sl09,000, and been
in Europe enjoying it. We understand that
Roberts new counterfeits, to the extent of
$4,000, are already afioat.
Overton, the counterfeiter of twenty five
cent stamps, who was arrested some time ago,
pleaded guilty on Friday last. Roberts will
also probably be speedily convicted, and, as he
is not so fortunate as TO have 60 wife and nine
children, there is no likelihood Of his receiving
the hasty pardon which was recently granted
to Antonio Rosa, a similar criminal.

EXTENSIVE CONTRIBUTING.
Seizure of $50, 900 in Spurious Postal Cur.
rency-Arrest of the COMMUNICATIVE
COME SSiou.

Confession.
IFrom the New York Tribune.l
An important arrest was effected In BROOKLYN
last Tuesday, the particulars of which have
been suppressed up to the present time. The
Treasury Department at Washington have
long been aware that the business of connter
letting greenbacks and postal currency has
been carried on to an alarming extent at differ
ent points throughout the country, but their
endeayors to arrest the guilty parties have
with few exceptions, been attended with
failure, or only partial success. One exceed =
mgly sklllful engraver of bogus postal cur
rency has been especially marked as the most
dangerous operator, inasmuch as his execution
was SO perfect as frequently to deceive even
the Government officials; and the holiness of
the counterfeiter was almost as great as his
skill. The man in question is an English
engraver by the name of Charles J. Roberts
The best Government detectives have been on
his track for six months without succeedino in
finding him, until last Tuesday. when his
arrest was effected in BROOKLYN by Messrs p
X. Lowell and A. J. Otto, detectives i'm the
service OF the Treasury Department, with the
assistance of Mr.. McWaters, of the 26th Metro
pOlitan Precinct.
The operations Of Roberts have been mainly
confined to Philadelphia, in the suburbs Of
which city his s'money mill' was situated The
last counterfeit plates which he made, and
which, in an indirect manner, led to his arrest
were copies of the latest issue of SO cent postal
currency. They are OF steel, and the impress.
sion from them is so beautiful and perfect, as
to be entirely undistinguishable from that of
the genuine plates Upon this counterfeit the
criminal artist had exerted his skill with the
most elaborate patience and precision, intend.
ing to make 1t in every sense a perfect resem.
blance, which would even escape the suspi.
cion Of the Government detectives.
But, though an engraver, Roberts was not a
printer. His plate was perfection, but unaid-
ed, or assisted only by mediocre printers, he
could not produce an impression equally per.
feet. He, therefore, left Philadelphia short
time ago to seek the services Of a Brooklyn
printer whom he understood to have been in
the counterfeiting business, and who was well
known to be a mechanic Of extraordinary skill.
Unluckily for the English operator, this print
tives, who were, therefore, promptly informed
of the whereabouts of the game for which they
had been so long in pursuit
Messrs. Lowell and Otto, with other detec-
tives, accordingly surprised Roberts in his
Brooklyn residence on Tuesday morning last
at $50. The counterfeiter made q desperate
