Court to try the case of Joseph Gruber,
charged with the larceny of a watch on
the Both of December, 1867. The stolen
article was shown to be the property Of

a. DESPERATE ENCOUNTER IN NORTH CARO-
11NA.-Information has been received by tele-
graph from North Carolina that on Sunday
last desperate encounter occurred in Pitt
County, of that State, wherein two persons
we're killed and two badly wounded. It appears
that desperate named Carney or Kearney,
who. for many months, has evaded the civil
officers of the law when they sought to arrest
him for the various crimes which he had COM
mitted, was finally tracked to his lair BY
United States officer and squad OF soldiers.
Evidently determined not to be taken alive,
Carney, with his son and son-in-law, blockaded
themselves in their house, and refused all
summons to surrender. On attempting to
break into the premises, the military posse
we're fred upon; one of their number was Kill
Ell. and the officer commanding the squad
wounded. The fire was returned, and the
desperado and his son-in-law killed, and the
son badly wounded.
These are the only particulars Of the affair
vet received. The event will no doubt be ez-
aprerated, and made to appear at the North as
an Indication of the rebellious spirit of North
Carolina. \But We are assured that the arrest
was attempted only for the reasons above stat
ed-namely, that Carney was the terror OF the
neighborhocd, and could n9the secured by the
local authorities.

A WELCOME FROM SAVANNAH IN ADVANCE
The Savannah Republican, alludins to the
promised visit of the Vigilant and Washington
Fire Companies Of this city, says:
We can assure not only the "Yieilants, " but
every other fremen's organization that may
honor our city with visit On the first OF May,
that no pains will be spared to render their
stay as pleasant and profitable as genuine South
ern hospitality and the bond OF undylng friend
ship that exists between the two cities can
make if. It is The intention OF our gallant
fremen, whose reputation for generosity and
true magnanimity of character as civilians mas
only been eoualled by their undaunted he
roism in battle as soldiers, to pay such homage
to their distinguished guests as will beht the
important occasion, and il the original pro-
oramme is carried out, we have no doubt 1t
SWill be the means of filling the minds OF all
who may accept their hospitalities en- the lst OF
Nav with delightful "reminiscences OF Savan-
nah and exalted opinions ofher protectors-our
brave fremen. Should the weather prove aus
nicious. the arrangements that have already
been made. with others tLat are now being rap
;dly nerfected, warrant us in stating that the
DISPLAY will be one Of the finest and most eX-
| tensiye ever witnessed south OF Baltimore. We
| nresume our Charleston neighbors are TOO well
aware of the character Of our hIemen to re-
o,1ire laudatory notice of them at our hands;
| hence we shall content ourselves by stating
that they will, with the hearty cooperation OF
orr best citizens, make this demonstration, one
NOT only worthy in everyrespect OF the unsullled
renutation of the Savannah Fire Department.
hnt such an ovation as will rebound to the
credit of the ''Forest City" OF the Empire
/ State of the South.

Market Hours. .

To the Editors of the Ners:
In the name Of oil the housekeepers Of
Charleston, why must the market be closed at
nine o'clock in the morning, and everybody be
put to serious inconvenience? Do sanitary
precautions require il? Charleston, hereto
fore, never has suffered anything from keeping
the market open till ten, or even eleven, o'clock
during the hot season, and why the necessity
of so stringent regulation now9
Under the present system, every housekeeper
must be in the market when be or she should
be presiding at the breakfast table, or else in
cur an additional outlay in the shape OF an e1-
ira butler and his stealings.
Here am, dependent for my very existence
on good dinner and the smiles Of the lady at
the head Of the table Since Mayor Cogswens
edict, have seldom had either. Just imagine
my condition, mental and physical, and also
that Of the lady OF the house she is utterly
distracted by the vain endeavor to accomplish
the almost impossible feat Of saying grace at
breakfast and getting in time to market to
order dinner. Without her presence breakfast
is q tame affair, and without good dinner life
is Of no account.
Indignantly yours,
LEGARE-STREET.
