CHANGING HIS CONSTITUENCY.

Causey Blair, a well-known Yorkville
darkey, whose recent arrest at Charlotte we
noticed last week, has been tried in the Su-
perior Court of Mecklenburg, charged with
larceny, and on conviction was sentenced by
Judge Cox to ten years. close confinement
in the penitentiary, with instructions that he
should be kept in the penitentiary, and not
be put upon any railroad work. Causey has
evidently impressed the people of the land of
his adoption, his public services in his native
State having doubtless been of advantage to
him in ingratiatiDg himself into their good
gracss. In thus changing his constituency,
he has the best wishes of those whom he has
formerly represented, who trust no new enter
prise will deter him from entirely fulfilling
his present engagement. As to the prompt
ness and celerity of Causey's movements, and
the ready appreciation of grateful people,
among whom he has cast his lot, it may be
mentioned that he was promenading the streets
of Yorkville less than month ago.
