OF the Richmond Dispatch


ELIZABETH CITY, N. ca
+, FIJI. .s,..s. ...-. May II, 1871.
For the past ten days we have been privi-
legged to listen to the sermons OF Rev. Leo.
Rosser, d. D., of your section. He has been
1aboring in the Methodist church in con-
junction with the pastor, and no doubt has
been instrumental in doing good by his
jealous and eloquent ministrations. The
congregations have been serious and at
tentiye, several souls have professed faith
in Christ, and penitents are now seeking
the divine mercy.
Our Baptist friends are now holding a
fair, the proceeds Of which will be appro-
priated towards repairing their cemetery.
They have met well-merited success in their
laudable effort to discharge sacred duty
to the dead. - q. -alS... q -
The late municipal election here resulted
In the triumphant success OF the entire
Radical ticket. e-f&25', E'1E,E
The United States District Court, Hon.
Judge Brooks presiding, has just closed its
spring term, having been chiefly occupied
in considering violations of the revenue
laws.
The State Superior Court, Judge G. c..
Pool, is now in session. No cases Of special
interest are on the docket The ,juEies in
this section are composed Of all shades of
color and political sentiment. -
Ex-Governor Holden, who disappeared
from the old North State during his im-
peachment trial, is yet in Washington. All
parties agree that he is politically dead, and
his return to this State would be the signal
for his indictment for conspiracy while
conducting the late outrages in Caswell and
Alamance counties. No doubt the PEN
itentlary would receive the former occu-
pant of the Raleigh "Palace" If he were
TO return to .ESweet Home.'
Many northern settlers continue to pur.
chase lands in this vicinity. They meet
with cordial welcome, and seem pleased
with southern hospitality.
Bishop Atkinson, ofthe Episcopal Church,
recently visited this place, and confirmed
thirteen persons.
A mass meeting was held here yesterday
TO consider the convention question. Line
prevalent opinion is that the call for con-
ycntioa in this State will be defeated by q
large majority, many Conservatives thinK-
ing that the act of the Legislature to that
effect is illegal, as the Supreme Court OF TINS
State has so decided. - :
New Irish potatoes, green peas, ana
stra wberries are abundant, and heavy ship
ments OF these articles have been prohtably
made to the northern cities. The fishing
season was pecuniary success this spring.
More behring's were caught in some In
stances than could be saved, and this de-
lightful relish for breakfast sold for only
about balf the price it commanded Last
year. Multitudes of fish of all kinds in our
waters have recently gone 'aseine. "A

LOCAL MATTERS.

= a FATHER ACCIDENTALLY. KILLS Hrs
-SoN.--One Of the most distressing accidents
we have ever been called on. to orecord. oc-
Cured In this city on yesterday afternoon,
afiabout halfpast Z O. clock, resulting In the
death OF q son from pistol in the hands OF
his father. About the hour aboye-named a
number Of small boys of the neighborhood
were standing in front Of the gfocery-store
of Mr.. Vincent Lucas, sat the corner of
Franklin and 20th streegs, one of whom
had q small single barrel pistol IL his hands,
with which it appears the boys had been
playing. Mr.. Lucas's attention was attracted
to the circumstance, and be took the pistol
to see II It might not be loaded and endaD-
ger the lives of the boys. In the act Of
examining 1t the pistol exploded, and
the ball which 1t contained struck
the breast of his own son, Andrew Lucas,
passing obliquely through his heart. He
Instantly fell and died in about twenty
minutes, without having uttered word.
Young Lucas was between nineteen and
twenty years of age, Of prepossessng ap-
pearance, popular manners, and highly es-
teemed by large circle Of youthful :asso.
iciates. He was the idol of his parents, who
fondly anticipated that their son just enter
ing upon manhood would be the stay and
comfort Of their declining years. Alas
that in the very act of trying to save his
neishbor's child from harm the father
should see his own son fall victim to the
generous impulses of bis heart. Our whole
community deeply sympathize with the be-
reaved parents. s@..--- 7

and Arlington Life Insurance Company re-
Gently opened an agencies in Columb US,
Ohio, and in less than week it has re-
ceived applications for policies for $S1, 900,
with about So, 900 premiums. It shows how
this Virginia enterprise is esteemed for Its
remarkable solvency, caution, and reli-
ability, when it meets such hearty patron
age where people are alive to their own
interests, and only place money where it is
safe.
Agencies will be speedily pressed for
ward in every northwestern State Within
the past few weeks agents have been ar
ranged in all the States and Territories
west of the Rocky mountains, and in all
the States and Territories east of this line
where the company was not before repre-
sented. 1t has arranged to enter New York,
and is treating with distinguished and ex.
perienced agents for the New England
States. Soon it will be at work over. the
entire United States, and stand monu.
ment of that success which will attend dill
gence and energy.

ACKNOWLEDGED HIS GUrLr-Mention W

ACKNOWLEDGED HIS GU1LT-Mention was
made in the Dispatch some three weeks
since of the arrest in this city of James
Robinson, supposed to be deserter from
the United States army, by Sergt. Smoot.
He was tried before the Police Court, and
in default of security sent to Jail. Seret.
Smoot wrote Immediately to the officer in
command ut Fortress Monroe, and gave o
description of the man.. In reply the ofi-
Ger stated that there was no means there of
Identifying Robinson, and he knew nothing
of him. Information from other sources,
however, was strong against the man, and he
was accordingly held until the time should
expire for which he was bound over. He
now acknowledges that he enlisted in Co.
e, SD U. S. infantry, on the 18th of Au-
gust, 1867 and deserted from service on the
9th OF the same month. The company
from which he deserted was stationed
somewhere in the South. BE Is now held
to await the action of the United States
authorities. ~

Z CAUGHT AT LAsT.-Mention was made in
the Dispatch some days since Of the rob-
berry of. Mr.. Charles Dipner's store, on
Canal street, Of q lot Of valuable clothing.
Subsequently one or two parties were ar
rested on suspicion of being implicated in
the theft. The detectives, however, had
good reason to believe that the principal
man in the affair was Jim Leopard, alias
Jim Curtis, a notorious thief, and conse-
quently sharp lookout was kept for him.
Last evening, between and 8 O'Clock, De-
tectives Kendall O'Dwyer and Winston
Rogers discovered the fellow on Dock
street. Being on the opposite side, how;
ever, the thief had the advantage. and
started off at q rapid rate, hotly pur-
sued by the two officers. The chase
was kept up until Leopard had nearly
reached A. S. Lees warehouse, when
be made for the canal. Detective VDWyer
had by this time fired three shots,
which failed to bring him to-, and in cross
ing the street, after having gained consid-
erabIy in the chase, ODwyer stumbled on
cobble.stone and fell. Rogers, however,
kept close on the thief, and overlook him
just as he had one foot in the canal and in
the act of pluuging IN. Collaring his pris-
oner, he started to pull him back from the
water, when Leopard drew razor and
attempted to use it upon the officer.
Detective UDwyer had by this time
arrived on the spot, and, drawing his pistol.
told him to give in, which Leopard still
refused to do, and resisted violently. A
welI-timed blow from the butt end OF the
pistol, however, had the desired effect, and
their prisoner was escorted safely to the
first police station and locked up. These
officers deserve credit for the skill with
which they have worked up this mattel
and brought this thief to justice. Leopard
Will have hearing before Justice Whltt
this morning.
