Co1p-pLooDED MURDER.--0ne of the most cold
blooded murders we ever knew of, was committed
about six miles from here on Wednesday night
last. The particulars we learn from the murderer
himself-a negro named Daniel McCorry, who is
now in Jail 1t seemed there had been Jealousy
existing betw cen two negroes named Jesse Evans
and George Pope, and the latter determined to be
rid of his rival --Learning that Jesse was coming
down the eastern branch of the Elizabeth, with a
lighter of wood he employed Daniel to kill him,
promising to pay him $40 for so doing Friday
night the lighter came to Newsom's Quarter Land
ing, and Daniel met Jesse, and telling him his
wife was very sick, persuaded him to come on
shore and soon after his leaving the boat, kllIed
him with load of buck shot from double-oar
relied gun. So soon as the affair was known, IN,
tense excitement was caused among oui ov a
population and forming company OF voluhSe el
they started in pursuit of the murderer anu sue
ceadad in cantnrino him and Pope near Provl-
dence Church on IS aturday, and carried them Dotn
to iail Jesse says he was " bound 10 XIII Dan
iel cause George Pope told him to do so, and
promised to paw him $40. Another negro, named
Thomas Wilson, has peen arrested as an acceSsoIy
to the murder.
mich credit is due our negroes for their prompt
and energetic action in the matter without hlch,
doubtless the capture could not have been effected
We trust thattheir conduct in this affair will con-
cusiyely prove that the colored population OF our
citv should not be held accountable for all the
crimes committed in community, and that
norton of them are law abiding people,
Surely the killing of a fellow-man is held OF lit
tie consequence by portion of the ignorant ne
GRO population. In this case, we learn that the
murderer admits his guilt in the matter, but
seems to think his conduct justified and himself
cleared of all responsibility, because be did the
deed for another person, and paid for 1T
while he who paid to have it done, holds himself
ouiltfess as he did not commit the murder, but
only paid the murderer to do the deed Is this
class of population that should be entrusted with
firearms? But we find them armed to the teeth,

MuN1cIPAL-We have from time to time had
our say about the manner in which the affair $
of our city have been managed, and expect to
continue doing so, giving credit and praise when
we can conscientousy do so, and findin 6
fault where an occasion demands it.
We did not attend the called meeting the other
night at the Court House, because we thought t
altogether an irregular mode of proceeding. We
have Mayor, and one too who fully appreciates
the Importance Of the position, and it seemed to
us that he should have established such measures
az he thought fit and necessary, without asking
the opinion of others Nevertheless our citizens
were consulted, and the result has proved most
satisfactory. We have now most efficient Sc
cret Police Force, and if their actions are sus
tained our city will be rid of the thieves and
garrotsrs which have invested it for months past.
Many of the members of this Police know these
rascals to be chronic bummers, and without yis-
BILE means of support, and if permitted, will drive
them from our midst, or carry them to whip
ping post,
IT'S difficult to catch these villains in an overt
act but our Police confident that these suspici
GUS characters are guilty. Why not then let them
carry out the provisions of our yagrant act in re-
gard to the white loafsrs here =? Mr.. johnson will
take care of the niggers. Oh, for the departed

STILL AT WoRK.-The recent action of our
Mayor and citizens in regard to garroters and
highwaymen, does not appear to have reached
the of the villains in the country. So much
On Friday night about 10 o'clock, Mr.. Henry
White, living on the Great Bridge road, was
stopped on his way home by two negroes, who de-
manded his money, and watch, or life. Not be-
ing disposed to part with either speedily, he de-
ayed compliance with their request for few
minutes, when some gentlemen from a neighbor-
ing house came out in the road, and the villains
made tracks.

NApRow EscAPE.-tBrown' had heavy time
getting home on Saturday night. A friend had
naid him nuite an amount of money in the after
noon. too late for Bank. He feared to leave it in
the safe lest some une should set the warehouse
on fire; So finally, little after dark, he deter
mined to set out for home, and take the Nancy
along For several days he had been very @ ju-
bus - about garroters, and, therefore, before
starting, he took several pulls at John Barleycorn
to set him up.
As be emerged from his counting room down
town. he noticed a man from across The street who
followed him as he bent his steps homewards.
Brown quickened his pace, and took tighter
ip on his package of money. AS he neared the
Custom House, he found that bis pursuer was
gaining upon him, and visions of murder by vio-
ience fitted through his brain; the perspiration,
in great beads, rolled down his face, and he con-
cluded that, as the race then looked, he would
probably meet his death somewhere about Stone
Bridge He however pushed along as fast as pos
sble, and was heard to mutter as he went, "Now
| lay me-" &c.
When he reached the Bridge his pursuer was
close upon him, and as he arrived at the apex of
of the structure, driven to despair, Re termined
to make stand" Immediately drawing from
his pocket his warehouse key, Brown wheeled
upon the marauder and tod him, sternly, that if
he advanced mother step, he would kill him.
Much to his astonish nent and relief his pursuer
exclaimed, ''Lor, Massa Brown, DOESN'T you know
Billy? Ise trying to catch up wild you, case lss
'fraid of the garroters."
Brown pocketed bis weapon, and he and Billy
took hearty laugh, and both arrived home in
safety.

peals, and won it---obtainng n decision
against the Company FOR the whole amount
claimed, with eleven years interest and
costs.
There is something quite refreshing in the
statement published by the Board of Direc-
tors in which, after reiterating their opinion
that the judgment is unjust, they offer for
sale So,nOO,O0O of new stock in order to
meet the ella inns of the Commodore and his
faithful adheren..-. No reliable statement
has been published OF the amount of money
paid-directly or in the sha,' OF stock-to
the parties who accepted the co,"oromise
three or four years ago. But we judge vat
the Company would have saved not much
less than million dollars in one way and
another had it pursued an honorable course
at the start, and acknowledged itself respon-
bic for the frauds Of its agent.
A healthy public sentiment has thanked
Mr.. A. I. Stewart for having promptly pre-
ferred complaint against a newspaper
which had seemed to charge him with inn
proper conduct in private life. And like
tribute is due to Commodore Vanderbilt for
having had the patience and constancy
to pursue this railway Company through
the mazes Of q twelve years lawsuit. It
would be we'll if we had more such men.
AS for the Company, we trust We shall never
again hear Of a wealthy concern, Offered
by respectable men, trying to shift to inno-
cent shoulders the burden of the crimes Of
its own officials.-HUper's Weekly.

Yet, treasured in my soul, I'll keep
The memory Of my parents dear.
Tho seas divide, each well-known scene
Around anld Hawick wesl I'll mind
Tho fairer landscapes greet my cen,
Yet ane n,air dear Gamma find
