the fame of the hero's exploits, Joined
his brigade as n private. Whether VIII
liam was an honest man before he
made Stonewall's acquaintance, we are
unable to say, but, IL he was, he must
have learned bad habits afterwards.
For, after the war ended he migrated
from Rockbridge county, Virginia, to
Ritchie county, West Virginia, and
soon nfter, forgetting that he had got
among set of law-abiding people, pro-
ceeded to put in operation certain lib
critics of action in regard TO horsefesh

citizens of Richie. For this he was ar
rested and, at a recent term of the
Court, sentenced to the penitentiarv
for term of years. On Yesterday he
arrived in this city in charge of the
deputy Sheriff of Richie county, Mr..

The evidence in the case failed to leave
distinct impression upon the 'Suufre's
mind that Mr.. Hess had been guilty of
the fnult with which he was charged

u An affray Of a serious nature &C.
Cured, on last Saturday night, on
board the Steamer Elnora, just after
leaving her moorings at the upper
Warehouse for Shreveport. George
Watson, second engineer Of the beat
went to the fire doors and ordered the
firemen to shove up the fires, when one
of the fremen, being somewhat under
the influence Of whisky, made at him
with knife and inflicted on his person
three or four serious and dangerous
wounds. The mate of the boat came
to the instant relief Of Watson, striking
the fireman over the head with pine
knot, which breaking, gave the fireman
a chance to make at the mate and in
flict on him two bad wounds. Other
officers of the boat and several hands
then assaulted the fireman., with clubs
and pineknots, thus stopping him, 9th
erwise the mate would have been killed
by him. The fireman was badly and
horribly bunged up, his head being
mangled to a perfect jelly. He was
lodged in Jail and has received good
treatment and proper physical atten-
dance. Watson and the mate were left
here and although both are suffering
much from their wounds, still their.
physicians consider, under the circ,,m-
stances, they are doing well.

Niger Thieves.

President johnson has mode Of dealing
with the Abolitionists that is certainly
very effective. He says, in substance, that
they have robbed their masters Of four
millions Of negroes, and with an army to
protect them from the people robbed, these
niger thieves are now working the ne.
groes. and taxing the northern laboring
classes to increase their profits. Mr.. JEFF
fersOn Davis, for example. owned planta.
ton aud perhaps a hundred negro servants.
After providing well fer the negroes, as
we'll as his own Immediate family, the SIR.
plus, if any over, was probably invested in {
more land, &c. They were the best fed
and least worked lib6rers in the world,
and the. happiest and most cantented; hut
the northern States elected Lincoln for the
sole purpose of forcing Mr.. Davis to change
his relations to these negroes, and instead
OF domestics or minors, to accent them as
his equals and fell0w-citjzens, Mr.. Davis
refused to be governed by such a govern
ment as that, and his State was invaded,
overrun, devastated, and now it is sid
that a relative, or near friend of Lincoln's,
has taken possession of his place, and is
working his negroes, and Mr. Davis is him.
SUI uuPIISUHcu dS TeDei. liu TINS
world ever before witness such o specta.
cle7 But this stealing of Mr.. Davis mig.
gers and plantation by friend Of Abe
Lincoln is only one feature Of tile strange
spectacle. If the year was a bad one; Mr..
Davis had to bear it, and economist his
expenditure; bit tue present owner Of tho
negroes goes to no expense for ovefseers,
doctors, &C., the Government providing
all these, and then if the crop is failure,
the northern laborers must make up the
deficiency. But even this taxation Of the
North to benefit the new masters is not all
tile present owner of the unfortunate
niggers insists on making them citizens
and equals of the northern laborers, who
are taxed to make up his profits. Well we
must have patience little while longer,
the end will come some day, and when il
does, not one Abolitionist, niger thief, OF
traitor will be left, from the Canada lineto
the Rio Qrande, and honest men will get
their own again their negroes as well as
their lands all save the silver spoons and
