THE CAPTURE OF OSCEOLA.

The recent assassination of General Candy
by Captain Jack, the leader of the Modoc In
dians, while engaged in "a talk" under flag
of truce has brought to public notice the de-
tention of Osceola, Seminole chief, during
the Florida war, and his confinement and
death at Fort Moultrie in Charleston harbor,
where his remains now repose. The usually
received version of the affair reflects no credit
upon the United States authorities, it being
charged that Osceola came into St. Augustine
under the sanctity of flag Of truce, that the
flag of truce was dsregarded, and he was de-
tanned as prisoner. The Sumter Watchman
brings to light statement published in the
National Intelhgencer several years ago, by
Major General Jessup, who at the time Of the
occurrence was in command Of the United
States troops in Florida, and who gave the
order for the detention of Osceola. The state
ment of General Jessup puts an entirely differ
ent face upon the affair, and doubtless details
the facts connected with Osceola's detention !:
STATEMENT BY MAJOR GENERAL JEsUP.
A matter has been recently brought into
discussion with which my name was connected
some twenty years ago, and, though explained
at the time, seems not even now to be we'll un-
derstood. 1t has been published in a neigh
boring print, on the authority ofa distinguish
ed professional and public man, that the Sem
mole Indian warrior Osceola, who, by the
murder Of General Thompson and by other
atrocities. began the Seminole war, "aUas caD-
t,ued by treachery and fraud" and that "when
dying IN hishopeless captivity his bitterest regret
was that history ,uould deprive him ofthe honor
of euinning the battle Of Withlacoochee." Had
the gentleman who penned the paragraph re-
ferred to "a part of which is quoted above)
been better acquainted with the details Of the
transaction, he would have been aware that
the late Gen. Clinch won the battle of With
lacoochee, and that there is some doubt
whether Osceola was in the battle at all.
With that portion of the story, however, I
have no further concern than desire to vim

PICKPOCKETS.

How they Look and how they Operate In
view of the many cases of pocket-picking we
have been called upon to chronicle in such
rapid succession, perhaps the following infor.
nation, gathered from a recent conversation
with one of the most experienced detectives,
may prove valuable to large number Of
people, who might otherwise suffer from the
depredations Of these thieves.
Our knowledge has heretofore been confined
to the ordinary daily accounts of crime ap.
pearing under the stereotyped heads of"Mys.
terious Car Robbery" "Thieves in Stage, u
"Pickpockets at Work." and other startling
titles of similar nature. But we have occa.
sionally been furnished with information that
gave US deeper insight into the appearances
and mode of operations of these eaesaliers d
industrie, but, as it usually came to US in q
sensational article, or was woven into the plot
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1873-05-08

advance and fell to the sidewalk, within few
feet of the gentleman they had been watching.
Within minute twenty people we're pushing
and crowding about the PROSTATE man. Dur.
ing the commotion the money was stolen and
the thieves escaped. While the gentleman
was excitedly informing the bystanders of his
loss, the decoy regained his feet, and quietly
stole away, to rejoin his confederates and re-
ceive his share of the plunder.
Ho,o Pockets are Picked.-Many people are
robbed on the different ferry boats. A favor
ite mode Of operation among thieves who steal
from the passengers, is to select some victim
who gives promise Of possessing well.6lled
wallet, and gather round him in such way
as not to excite his suspicious. When the
rush takes place as the boat reaches the slip,
be is pushed first on one side and then on the
other, and perhaps his hat is knocked down
over his eyes. During the mele he is quietly
relieved of his pocket-book, and, before he
discovers his loss, the thieves have escaped.
Pockets are sometimes cut in such way as
to allow the contents to fall out into the thiefs
hand. This is done with a sharp circular
shaped blade, worn on the finger like ring.
The writer once received dangerous wound
across the back of his hand from one of these
instruments, while standing with his hand in
one of his pockets, among crowd Of specta-
tors at Jerome Park race. The thief proba.
bly, mistook the unfortunate member for
plethoric purse. - 30. -.
Stealing on the Cars.-Travelers in street
cars are the greatest sufferers from thieves.
Not day passes when:we are not called on to
publish accounts Of several robberies commit
ted in the cars. Pckpockets are plying their
vocations in this direction to an alarming ex.
tent, and until the authorities take active
measures to protect citizens from the depreda-
tions of these rascals, it would be we'll for
those who ride in street cars to adopt some
way of carrying their Yaluables.
