Another Robbery and Attempted Murder in
New Kent

There appears to be an organized band OF cut
Threats and robbers in New Kent county. We
published in our issue of yesterday the partlcu.
lars of the arrest of two negroes suspected of hav
ing robbed and murdered Mrs. Stewart and Jno.
Baker on Sunday last A day or two before
these murders an old negro man from Peters
burg, who called himself DR.. William Kemp,
went to the county on professional tour, and
stopped one night at the house of Peter Harris,
very respectable negro. He had been in tie
neighborhood few days and was known to
have money.
Whilst at Peter Harris house a negro man,
whose voice was recognized, came to the dool
and knocked. He was admitted. but said he
had been sent by very sick lady for DIR.
Kemp, and the negro wanted him to go at once
to see her. Dr. Kemp refused, said he was not
well, and the night was very dark, but promls-
ed to come next morning to see her. The ne
gro then left the door, but returned In few
moments and asked for light, saying his mule
had thrown him, and he had lost his watch and
pocket book. Peter Harris carried lighted
candle to the door and opened it. AS he did
so, the negro outside stepped up in the door
and blew it out. The parties in the house saw,
when the door was opened, several other ne
groes outside two of whom rushed into the
house, and seized DIR. Kemp, and carried him
out. They put rope around his neck, chok;
ed him, and robbed him of $l04 in money and
his watch. A negro man, who was sleeping
in the house, hearing the noise, jumped up and
ran out 1t is thought his going out frighten-
I'd the thieves, who ran off. 1t was evidently
their intention to kill Kemp, and his life was
undoubtedly saved by the negro man who came
out of the house.
Two negroes, one named Garland and the
other Obediah, were arrested on suspicion and
committed to jail The constable who made
the arrest failed to search their persons when
he arrested them. A white man, who passed
along the road travelled by the constable with his
prisoners to the court house, shortly after they
had gone along, found Kemp's watch in the
road. 1t is supposed that it was thrown away
by one of the prisoners. Enquirer, Oct. 3rd.

Dyspeptics of long suffering are beginning to dis

Bitters and though we at times in our notices,

SO, is not to deceive the public, but merely to
induce the afflicted to try them, feeling confident
that fair trial will at once commend their vir-

an excellent remedy; and for delicate females

VINO Are the Thrifty and Who Are
the wastefuI.

The rich are usually thrifty; because,
as a general rule they acquire prudent
habits in amassing competency. The
poor are generally extravagant; partly
SO as a cause of their poverty, partly SO
as its consequence. The rich save be-
cause they can save efectually, and at
once profit by the saving. The poor
are lavish, because their individual
gains by saving are SO small in amount
and slow in accumulation that discour-
agement doubles the privation and de-
creases the reward of economy. Then
again, by wholesale dealing and pur-
chases for cash, rich man can obtain
a discount where poor man pays a
premium in price. So, as we have said
before, it is quite possible to be too
poor to be economical. We cry out
against the extravaganza OF the rich.
Here is what the editor of Halls Jour
nal of Health says of the extravaganza
of the poor:
We went the other day to a shanty
not large enough for a horse TO live in,
and certainly too filthy; we wished to
procure some fresh laid eggs for a spe-
cial friend, an invalid lady who could
not eat anything else with relish; the
price was six cents each, and they
could have sold bushel day at that
price, yet, although they were feeding
large number of hens, they had only
two eggs 10 sell; on inquiring the rea-
son, "Ah, yer honor, the childther ate
them all up" This simple incident
shows the principle of the poverty of
the poor. Here were children, dirty,
ragged, without hats, bonnets or shoes,
eating eggs at II price which men worth
a million would not pay for their own
use, except in sickness. And yet If
rich man, whose income amounts to
hundreds of dollars day, buys dress
for his wife or daughter at hundred or
two dollars, we snarl at "the extraya-
gance OF the rich" a thousand dol
lars for dress would not be as stri-
king an example of extravaganza as
these children in good health eating
eggs at six cents piece.

While the New York Times has edi-
toriallY been consistent and uniform
in its reluctance to approve of the I'M
peachment, we have been frequently
gratified with the candor and intelli-
gence exhibited in its correspondence
from the Capital, and of which the an
nexed paragraph, from letter OF the
10th, affords ample Indications
"The one fact remains, which will
have more weight with the Senate in
making up their verdict, than any
other, to wit: That the President was
determined To get rid OF Mr.. Stanton;
that he Ind come to the conclusion. ex-

which would ensue, and be fatal to him

TGnto, the only proceeding open to him,
and open TO him only as the agent of
the Government; that thereupon he de-
termined to remove Mr.. Stanton in
spite OF the law, and throw upon him
the onMS OF initiating legal proceedings.
II he cared TO assume them. Now he
did all this IN just the manner stated,
