Bloody Deed Of Retaliation.
The Particulars Of the Killing of Tan,
Lo,0ery-The Re,oard Paid.

WILMINGTON, N. c., July 22.-Further
particulars regarding the killing of Tom
Lowery, one of the Robson county Swamp
Angels, show that it was effected by A. s.
Wisbart and Robert E. Wishart, (bro.hers of
Colonel WisharD James Mckay, aud James
Campbell, four resolute aud daring young men
who set out for Scufnetown, the capitol of the
outlaws, Thursday night last for the purpose
OF avenging the death of the lamented Col.
Wishart. Arrived near Scufletown the band
travelled by the outlaws aud inhabitants.
None Of the gang was seen till Saturday
morning at o'clock, when Tom Lowery ap-
peared in sight on his way to Union chapel,
where political speaking was to take place
that day. He ewas walking lesurely along the
road in company with white man named
Prevail. Lowery was armed with Spencer
rifle aud three revolvers. He came on with>
out suspicion until he got opposite where the
young men were concealed, when he noticed
the tracks they had made in crossing the road
He now seemed much alarmed aud commenced
cursing furiousy.
Suddenly the little band discharged their
pieces. Each of the four shots took effect.
and uttering yell of terrer and pain. Lowery
plunged iuto tho swamp aud ran about fifty
yards and then fell iu the agony of DEATH
But he died not submissively bis struggle
was hard aud prolonged while life lasted. AS
the young men approached him where he lay,
he attempted to draw pistol, but was too
weak. One hand was clenched so firmly
about his gun that it was with difficulty the
fingers could be uuolasped Ga his body was
found gold watch, the property of Mr.. John
McNair.
The body was immediately seized and
carried on the shoulders Of the party to pub.
lie road half mile distant, where passing
wagon was pressed into service, and the body
carried to Lumberton and delivered to the
sheriff. 1t was fully identified as that of Tom
Lowery, and delivered to his wife, who was
sent for by the sheriff. 1t was inferred by
his friends at 2 O'Clock, Saturday, somewhere
in the classic precincts Of Scufaetown The
same day, Sheriff MCMILLAN paid over to the
Wisharts and their companions the reward
offered by the county-S1, 900 There is a
State reward of $4,000, which they will prob
ably soon receive. Stephens Lowery and An
drew Strong are the only two of the gang re-
naming. 1t is thought they will soon meet
with similar fate.

True Heroism.

The following anecdote, extracted from un-
published memories of French nobleman.
may, it is hoped, serve as an example, we'll
worthy of being initiated by all who desire to
be thought truly brave aud courageous. II
records an instance of a victory gained by a
man over his own PASSIONS victory more
glorious, more honorable than any that has
ever been purchased with fire and sword with
devastation and bloodshed
Two noblemen, the Marquis de Valaise and
the Count de Meric, were educated under the
same masters, and were regarded by all who
knew them as patterns of friendship, honor
and sensibility. Years succeeded years. and
no quarrel had ever disgraced their attacks
ment, when one unfortunate evening, the two
friends, having INDUCED rather freely in some
excellent Burgundy, repaired to neighbor-
ing hotel; and engaged in a game of back
CANNON. Fortune declared herself in favor
of the Marquis; he won every game, and in
the thoughtess glee of the moment laughed
with exultation at his unusual good luck
The Count lost his temper and once or twice
upbraided the Marquis for enjoying the pain
which he had excited in the bosom of his
friend. Atlast, upon another fortunate throw
made by the Marquis, by which he gammoued
his antagonist, the infuria.ed Count threw
the box and dice in the face of his brother
soldier
Every gentleman presentwas in amazement.
and waited, almost brea,hlessly for the mo,
ment when he would sheathe his sword in the
bosom of the now repentant Count
Gentlemen" said the marquis, .sI am a
Frenchman, soldier, and friend. [ have
received blow from a Frenchman, soldier
and friend. I know and acknowledge the
laws of honor, and I will obey them. Every
man who sees me wonders why 1 am tardy in
visiting with vengeance the author of my dis
grace. But, gentlemen, the heart of that man
is entwined within my own; our education
was the same, our principles are alike, and
our triendseip dates from our earliest years.
But, Frencbmen, will obey the laws of
honor and of France: 1 will stab him to the
heart"
Upon this, he threw his arms around his
unhappy friend, and said, "My dear de Meric,
forgive you, if you will forgive me for the
irritation l have occasioned, in sensitive
mind, by the levity of my own. And now,
gentlemen, added the marquis though l

Interesting Experiment.

The Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific Rail-
road Company has made an experiment which,
by its successful result, SCENE to have solved
the labor question, far as that corporation
is concerned. Several months ago the super.
intendent initiated the plan of paying the em.
ployes of the company by the hour. The
mechanics in the shops of the company were
all paid by this standard, while engineers and
other trade men were paid according to the
number of miles they ran. The latter plan,
although obviously liable to produce ineq quali-
ties of compensation, is said to have worked
satisfactorily, SO that in busy seasons the
engineers made as much as $3.50 a month.
In the shops the men were employed all
through the season, but worked reduced
number of hours, while in slack times they
were also employed fewer hours, instead Of
being discharged. At first some of the work
men objected, but trial of the scheme is
said to have convinced all of them of its fair
ness. 1t affords the corporation perfect pro-
lection against strikes, and removes all causes
of i'll feeling between the employers and the
employed. The success of the experiment
renders it worthy of attention. To some ex.
tent the same mode of payment is practiced
by the Reading Railroad Company. The
brskesmen, and probably the engineers and
conductors, are paid by the number of trips
made.

The Adroit Swordsman.

Pulaski, as it is well known, was as adroit
swordsman as he was perfect in horseman>
ship, and he ever rode powerful and feet
charge. During the retreat of the American
army through New jersey, in the darkest
hour of our national adversely, he was pursued
by small party of British cavalry, the leader
of which was good horseman, and mounted
as we'll as Pulaski. Pulaski rode in the rear
of his detachment and the British captain rode
in front of those he commanded, The morn
ing sun was shining brightly, casting oblique
shadows, and the pursued party entered long
narrow lane. Pulaski having satisfied himself
of the superior speed and command of his
horse over that of his pursuer, slackened his
pace, and kept his horse to the side of the
lane farthest from the sun. The pursuing
officer came up in hot haste, so as to make
the decisive cut upon Pulaski as soon as he
could reach him. Pulaski rode as though he
heard not the advance upon him, yet he kept
his eye warily upon the ground on the side of
his horse toward the sun on the right. As
soon as the shadow of the pursuer's horse
gained upon him 80 that his horses head, by
his shadow, bad gained about half the length
of his own horses body, he gave the sudden
swordcut of st. George with his powerful arm.
and saw the decapitsted head of the English
officer following the stroke.
His mathematical eye had measured the
distance by the position of the shadow so ac-
curately, that the pursuing officer lost his
head before he ever suspected that his prox-
unity was known, or blow was mediiated.

A ACoMMoNPLAcE cE EINcIDENT-Nrax Adeler
says: The papers arc publishing as curious
item statement to the effect that "a horse in
Iowa pulled the plug out of the bupghole Of
a water>barrel aud slsked his thirst" AS the
horse could not have sIaked his thirst without
pulling the plug out of the bunghole of the
barrel, we do not see anything extraordinary
in the occurrence. Now. if the horse had
pulled the barrel out of the buughole. and
slaked his thirst with tho plug, or if tho barrel
had pulled the bunghole out of the plug aud
slaked its thirst with the horse. or if the plug
had pulled the horse out of the barrel and
slaked its thirst with the bunghole. or if the
bunghole had pulled the thirst out of the horse
snd slaked the plug with the harreIl. or if tho
barrel had pulled the horse out Of the bung.
hole and plugged its thirst with slake, 10
might have been worth while to make some
fuss over it. But none of these things seem
to have occurred.
