Col. TEw-The citizens of this place
were greatly surprised, though gratiffed, to
learn that Col Tew is probably yet alive. A
young man, who gives his name as W. w.
Wallace, citizen of Little Rock, Ark, rep
resents himself to have been prisoner In
the government prison at the Dry Tortugas,
where he had been confined since June 1868,
and from which we was released on the 18th
of January last. He says among the prison
ers at present, confined at Dry Tortugas. is
Col. G. G. Tew, who was wounded and cap
tured at the battle of Sharpsburg that he
was taken to Fort Delaware, and afterwards
to Fort Clinch on the Florida coast, that at
some point IN his transfer, in an attempt to
escape, he killed Col. Turner, of the Nor
thern Army; for which he was tried by a
court martial, and sentenced to perpetual
Imprisonment at the Dry Tortugas; that he
had been severely wounded in his hip,proba-
bly, in the attempt to escape, from which he
was still suffering. He says that Col Tew
is passing under an assumed name, but that
he gave to him his real name; and though
protesting to no intimacy, or frequency Of
intercourse, with Col. Tew, is satisfied Of
his identity. 1t will be remembered that al
the first report of bis death, it was stated
that he was shot in the head this man says
that he has still the marks of wound in his
head.-Hills5oro' Recorder.

MURDER-The New York Tribune has a
very sensible article upon the subject of
"The Mystery of Murder" in the course in
which it furnishes some very startling facts.
Amongst Others is the statement that in the
City of New York there were during the
year 1866, no fewer than II homicides and
murders, without including numerous cases
of death by drowning or other means, where
it was not clear whether or not there had
been foul play. Only 33 persons were ar
rested for these crimes, and the records of
the courts show only Is convictions Several
of which were for offences committed in a
previous year, with 10 prisoners still to be
tried. That is to say, of the perpetrators Of
clear and unmistakable honlicides in New
York more than 30 per cent. are not arrested
and nearly 80 per cent. are not punished.
