{ learns that Jecms Harris, the negro Re-
publican candidate fo1 Congress from the
| Raleigh District, has no idea of being
bought of this time to give place to some
white aapIrant. Jeems suffered himself to
be bought off before by Deweesc, but now
he says no power on earth can induce him
| to give way. Says Jeems: 1.-The blacks want
to test the matter; they have been for two
years voting for the whites, and now he
means to see if they. (the whites) are will

There was a current rumor that four white
men and two negroes had ravished

is not a word of truth in it no rape has
been committed that can hear of, and

third in regard to a negro being shot by
mistake, is true, but by whom, no one
knows Tho negro says he knows who did
it, but refuses to tell. He was only slight
ly wounded in the leg. Both parties met
in the dark on the road, and the shot was
fired, as tho parties alleged, by mistake"
