We noticed the departure Of a Mr.
Gibson from this place and stated
that b, carried with him a coat aud
some other articles which lid not
belong to him.and all not pay for
his clash" &c. learn, however,
that the coat has turned up, and
Mr.. ellison Is cxhonorated from the
charge Of theft, and that he only
owed a dollar and a half o. two dol
lars board, which he did not settle.
We published Gibson upon the
statement of others, and supposed at
the time we did so, that he was one
of the scamps that are infesting the
South at present ostensibly rs agents
of one kind oil another, but really as
political emisaries In the iterest OF
Radical tricksters; but We arc in
formed that he is n citizen of Mar
shall county and is well spoken of
by those who know him. We make
this statement in justice to Mr.. Gil
son as we have no desire to wrong
him.
