The Troubles In this County

Now that the excitement consequent
ppou the late outbreak in this county and
the pursuit Of the desperadOes by the
Sheriff and his posse has in a measure sub
sided, it seems proper that we should give
our readers a connected and truthful his
t Try of the eff .ir-especialy, as many ex-
citing and exaggerated reports have gained
currency, and are repeated as uDquestiOn
ed truth, while they have no foundation
except in the imagination of their authors.
On Monday. the 3d instant, the 2istiI-
lery of Mr.. Angus Leach and the residence
Of MS Mckay were robbed. On Tues
day evening a party of seven men who
were on their way from Shoe Heel to join
the Sheriff at Red Banks, discovered the
Red Banks and Immediately fired into
them. The outlaws returned the fire,
wounding Mr.. Stephen Davis and Aug.
Mclean. The attacking party then re-
tired, leaving Mr.. Davis On the field. On
"Wednesday a large body Of men under
command eff Sheritf Mcmillan organized
and continued the pursuit until the utter
noon of Friday when the posse was dis
banded by the Sheriff, and the pursuit on
ipg the teamster of Mr.. John Taylor
was met uear Moss Neck and warned that
the life of Mr.. Taylor was in danger-that
they intended to visit him that night, and
that he would be murdered. On the same
day the dead body of Make Sanoerson,
mulatto, was found near Moss Neck. On
the same day, Oxendine came into
Lumbertcn and sued out warrant for
some party who, he claimed, had shot him
through the hand on Friday night. On
Sunday Jas. Oxendine was dispatched to
Raleigh, bearing a petition signed by two
radical magistrates of this county for
United States Troops.
On Monday morning OF s! o'clock Ste
phen Davis died from the effects Of the
wounds received in the attack on the out
laws ON the Sd instant. On the same day
the Coroner held an inquest over the body
of " Make" Sanders on-verdict Death
by gunshot wounds received at the hands
of party or parties unknown"
No troops have yet arrived. In the
meantime the Radical officials are doing
all they can to protect their friends, the
outlaws, and to embarrass the Sheriff in
his efforts for their arrest.

peatn OF Colonel lym. j. Hoke

We sincerely regret to learn OF the death
of Colonel VIM. J. HoKE, formerly of Lin-
colnton, n. c., but more recently of Co
lumbia, South Carolina, where he died on
Tuesday last
Colonel Hoke was an estimable citizen,
gallant soldier and good man. Though
considerably beyond the age of most of
those who engaged in the active service of
the late war, he remained in the field I'M
til his health gave way from tie effects of
severe wound. He returned then, in the
latter part of the war. only when unable,
from physical disability, TO perform the
arduous duties of the service.
His old comrades OF the 3Sth Regiment
of North Carolina Troops, of which he
was commander, and his fellow-sold2ers OF
Pender's and Scales Brigade will hear of
his death with feelings of the deepest sor-
row. Tho death Of such man is a loss to
his native and adopted State.

The case of the United States ps. The
Franklin Square Building Association, No.
!, was argued yesterday in the United
States District Court. The defendant wae
sued for penalties to the amount of $500
for violating the internal revenue law by
not stamping its certificates of member
ship, it being alleged in the plaintiffs de-
claration that said certificates each requir-
ed twenty-five cent stamp under the pro-
vision in the act of 1864, as amended, re-
curing certificates of interest in the &C
cumulations of any company incorporated
to be stamped according to their Value
By agreement of counsel the case was tried
before Judge Giles, who decided that in
this case the defendant was not liable under
the acts of Congress, because its certificates
indicated no value on their face.-Balti-

MOsby ON the French and PruSstan Ware
There could be no better commentary
upon the utter imbecility of the French
military management than the fact of the
uninterrupted use which he Prussians are
suffered to make of the railways between
Paris and the Rhine. According to the
last accounts it will be noticed that the
heavy siege guns are being transported by
rail-a work which without the aid of
steam power would take weeks instead of
hours. How long would these facilities be

BURNING OF THE STEAMSHIP WAsHINGToN
VESSEL AND CARGO TOTAL Loss. The
steamship Washington, Capt. Wallace,
which left here early yesterday morning
for New York, caught fire when in the
vicinity of Big Island, some Q miles below
the city, at about 81 o'clock, and will
probably, together With the cargo, prove
q total loss.
The origin of the Are is unknown. It is
said that il was drst discovered by the
noise in the fire room, went down there to
ascertain tie cause, bur instantly turned
back to give the alarm. The officers were
at breakfast, 1t the time, bat rushed out
when the alarna was g ven, only to find the
entire forward part OF the ship in flames.
The Washington was immediately headed
for the shore but, before reaching it, the
heat became so intense that rush was
made for ,e boats. The officers and crew
baFely escaped safely, several of the latter
being compelled to jump overheard and
swim ashore.
About 10 O'Clock Messrs. Williams g
Murchisop, the Agents here, received in
telligence of the calamity, and the tug
Oldhaha was Immediately chartered to take
down to the scene the fire steamer John
T. Rankin, for which permission had been
obtained from Mayor Martin, the steamer
first being insured. The Rankin was
therefore taken down under charge of a
detail from her company.
Arriving at the scene, two, streams of
water were quickly brought to bear on the
wreck. but, unfortunately the cylinder of the
fire engine broke down and no good could
be accomplished. After working her for
some time. in the vain hope of getting
her again in running order, the ship was
scuttled. She rapidly COMMENCED sinking
and, at the time of leaving her. was nearly
under water.
The Washington has been running be-
tEeen this port and New York but a short
time, she having been pat IN service by
Merssrs. Williams il Murchison, princi-
pally fer the accommodation of their large
freight She wss outward bound and her
cargo consisted OF 667 bbls. spirits turpen-
tine, 40 bbls. rosin, 307 bales cotton, IL
bbls. dried fruit and bales hides. Both
vessel and cargo will probably prove total
loss. The entire loss has been roughly es.
timeted at 500, 900, which, it is said, was
under full insurance. The officers and
