One Cause Of Failures.

When large financial institution is
robbed, either by some one employed in
its management, or by outside burglars,
it is generally true that the crime is
mad. possible by the carelrssness of
some of the institutions responsible Of
6cers. A Belgian bank which has re-
Gently been robbed ofS4 600, 900 aff'rds
an illustration of this maxim. The thief
was q young clerk with salary Of
about $500 year. The bank was 10
the habit of receiving from its custom
ers for safc-keeping large amounts ofse-
curities of various kinds. All of these
securities we're in charge Of this clerk,
who was required. not to enter them
with their numbers on the bank books,
but merely to note the reception of se-
curities of a certain value from this Gus.
toner or another. He at once saw his
opportunity. and began appropriating
to his own use as many of the securities
as he desired. When a customer called
for his stocks or bonds the clerk gave
him similar ones belonging to some one
else, carrying on his transactions so as
not 10 be detected until the amount Of
his speculation reached the enormous
sum Of more than four millions Of dol
lars. Meanwhile, although he was liv>
ing With reckless extravaganza, mono of
the banks officers seem to have sus.
pected that his salary would not supply
the means for paying his bills, and on
one occasion, when person found that
the securities returned to him were not
the same as the ones deposited, the
clerk arrange d the matter so cleverly as
to secure vote Of thanks from the d.
rectors of the bank. Finally he fed
and was arrested in Liverpool with
81 100000 in his possession. If ever
bank directors are responsible for losses
caused through their own carelessness,
this set Of directors must be.

A Specimen Radical Witness.

Julius Faaborg, of Darlington, has
been a prolific reporter Of outragps,
much capital having been made of his
blood-curdling reports Of horrible deeds
done by tho white people ofthat county.
His character was fully shown during
the progress cf the somewhat famous
Oakley case in the United States Court
in Columbia on Saturday. Mr.. Oakley
was arrested by Faaborg some months
ago on the charge of re6lling an empty
tobacco box. On the first trial before
the court in this city The case resulted
in a mistrial because some negroes on
the jury said the character of the gov
ernment officers was in question, and
they mus stan up for de gobberment." I"
The evidence submitted on Saturday
showed that the notorious Julius -Faa-
borg went into Oakley'S store and vio-
leutly carried off box that was properly
stamped, and containing tobacco tittiLg
it perfectly, asserting that the tobacco
was too long for the box. He after
wards approached Oakley, and still
later Oakley's counsel, with offers to
drop tho case for composition. Being
defied, he indicted Oakley at last, and
produced in evidence Il box aud to-
hacco which Oakley had never seen.
Oakley, his cl"rk, and fvc or six Gus
tou,"rs tesrlfird TO this substitution. II
will be remembered that Faaborg has

probably be cent to the Penitentiary at
The next term IF Darlington court.
Many gentlemen, including member
Of the Legislature, from Florence, and
a town warden testified that tie char.
acters of Faaborg and his associates IN
the matter were so execrabie that no
one would believe them on oath.

WHAT THEY FoCaHT ABoUT.-The
! Charlotte Obseruar gives the following
account of the origin of the Wilson's
Sanders duel: GAS to the origin of
the difficulty, the details Of which have
not heretofore been given, it is learned
here through friends of Mr.. Wilson
that on the race-codrse in Columbia,
where the trouble began: he bet five
dollars to one dollar with Mr.. Sanders
on Saptuc, the favorite, against the
field. The money was placed in the
hands of a friend of Mr.. Sanders.
During the race Sanders went to Will
son and said, 'Rscollect, you are bet
ting FIVE dollars to one dollar against
Sautuc.' Wilson replied. You are mis-
taken Sanders said, well, We will
withdraw the bet Wilson remarked
to him that he (Sanders) had reversed
the bet, at the same time applying an
opprobrious erithet to him. Sande:s's
friend returned Wilson his money. and
that evening Sanders sent friend to
Wilson to demand an apology. This
was refused, and late that night SAM
ders approached Wilson in the Wheeler
House and struck him with q lady's
riding whip. Wilson wrested piece
Of the whip from him and thereupon
the combatants were separated. Will
son then addressing Sanders, said. 'Slr,
you have made a cowardly and unex-
pected astault upon me; you shall bear
from me in regard to this matter again.
