A FARMER ARRESTED ON THE TRUMPED-
UP CHARGE OF A THIEvIsH NEGRO.
Early Wednesday morning last, Mr..
Sam'l Carlisle, living near Christiana,
was aroused by a noise and going out
to his barn, found a negro namedClay-
ton Earle in the act of stealing bag
of corn. lie drove the thief away ,and
on Thursday came before Esquire Fra
xcr, in this city ard had warrant is
sued for Earle's arrest.
Hearing of this the rascally negro
sneaked around to the Custom House
on Saturday and going before U. S.
Commissioner Smith, swore that Mr..
Carlisle had offered him bag of corn
to vote for Cochran and Williams.
On the strength of this oath a war.
rant was issued for Mr.. Carlisle's arrest
and served by Deputy Marshal, Mon
day morning. In the afternoon, Mr.
G. had hearing before the U. s. Com
missioners, and was held to bail, in the
sum of $500, to answer the charge al
the next term of the U. s. Court, or
the second Tuesday in January. Mr..
w. Coupcr, of New Castle entered a.
security.
The negro, Immediately after the
trial, made himself scarce, in order tt
avoid arrest and trial for the attemp
at larceny. The rascal deserves Sc
we're punishment, both for his first crime
and the base perjury with which hi
strove to screen himself.
