That the thrilling pictures given IN the HERALD
OF the outlaws OF the Robson county swamps, In
North Carolina, with the history Of their deeds OF
daring murder and rapine, had awakened deep
sensation over the United states, was everywhere
evident. 1t seemed Incredible that q band OF five
men should persistently defy community such as
the Old North state The criminal supineness OF
the state authorities the inactivity OF the FEDERAL
government and the terrorized condition Of the In.
habtans Of the district all expressed an anomalous
condition OF affars which

gang, and traced back their history to the days Of
the rebel fornfcatons at wilmington, when Henry

ARRIVAL OF THE CORRESPONDENT
To the amazement and yet to the great
satisfaction, of the public here the HERALD
correspondent who has been for nearly ten
days past in the swamps Of the Caro-
lima outlaws returned to Wilmington
this afternoon by the Charlotte
road, which traverses the Scufletown
district. Up to the time Of his arrival in
Wilmington little or no hope was INDUCED Of
bis safety, in view of the threats against him
which have recently been made by the outlaws.
His safe arrival in Wilmington this afternoon
CREATED AN INTENSE EXCITEMENT,
and despite the fearfully stormy weather the
HERALD correspondent was the object Of
curiosity and the HERALD was the theme Of
discussion and praise. The universal sentiment
in Wilmington is that the HERALD correspon..-
ent is the hero of wonderful feat Of daring, ard
there is universal rejoicing that he has finally
escaped the great perils which have for more
than week past environed him. Details given
by your correspondent regarding his adven-
lures among the outlaws confirm the accounts
given in the HERALD dispatches of the
PERIL AND DIFFICULTIES
which he has undergone. He left for New
York this afternoon, and will give to the
HERALD the fullest possible details Of his
thrilling adventures. On Friday last your
correspondent was taken by the outlaws
farther into the swamp, and
CONDUCTED By THEM BLINDFoLDED
from Rhody Lowery's cabin to several Of their
most secret hiding places. At the moment Of
leaving Rhody's cabin the HERALD CORE
spondent experienced the greatest sense Of
personal danger suffered by him during his
career with the outlaws. Tom Lowery had
especially urged the killing Of the
DAMNED YANKEE"
and as the other outlaws conducted him away
from Rhody's cabin, with the remark To
Rhody that he would never see daylight
again, your correspondent had little hope but
that Tom Lowery's savage threat would be
executed. Conducted by the outlaws through
the swamp blindfolded, except when his
captors chose to remove the bandage. he
