SHERMANs LIFE THREATENED.
New York sun Special

WASHINGTON, January 26.--Col. G. ii.
DeAhma. ex-Collector of customs ut Sitka,
Alaska, has been refused admirtanCe to the
Treasury Department. De Alma is IN eX-
tremely destitute circumstances, and his
large family is suffering from lack of food.
While brooding over his wrongs he said to
Solicitor Raynor that if his babe should
die from starvation, as seemed probable,
he would first shoot John Sherman and
then kill himself Mr.. Raynor communi-
Gated this statement to Sherman, who di-
recisd Chief Of Secret sService Brooks to
exclude De Alma from the. building.
When asked if he really. would shoot
Sherman ii hiS babe: died trop lack of
food, De Alma said that he thought be
would be justified ih so doing.
This individual seems to be as
difficult to get rid of as the old man
of the sea. All his troubles have
beensof of his own creation, and he
is not entitled to the slightest sym
pathy of any kind. He threatened
to kill Major Morris because the lat
ter reported him as default ter to the
United States, but the Major only
laughed at him. He should either
be locked up in some penal instjtu.
tion or incarcerated in mad house,
for the man must be lunatic who
would publicly make use of the dia-
bclical threats which are credited to
him.

HEAVY Loss.--On Thursday night
of last week, the dwelling house on
Mr.. Hammond's farm near this place
was burned down. The inmates
were awakened by the fire near mid
night, and escaped just in time.
Everything inside was burned. For
tunately, Mr.. Hammond's family
were living IN town at the time, but
the house on the farm was occupied
by one of his sons and some laborers.
The loss falls heavily upon him, and
universal sorrow is expressed. The
fire company were rung out by the
alarm bell, but could do nothing.

TO SERVE THE sTATE.
a Squad of Citizens Gone to Nashville

This morning Carr, alias Gibson,
who yesterday plead guilty to r charge
of robbing Phil Simons, and was SEN
fenced in the Criminal Court to seven
years in the penitentiary, started un-
der escort for Nashville to serve out
his time, unless he should manage to
escape, which, however, he is not very
likely to do, as culprits of his ilk are
not worked outside of the penitentiary
walls. Gibson doubtless feels better
satisfied with his prospect for the
next seven years than he would to
have taken the chances of a trial in
St. C'air county, Illinois, where
his effense was so 'heinous
that with proper justice he
would doubtless have gone up for
twenty years, unless he had been
made to climb a sapling. His pal,
Rose, who was caught at the same
time, but against whom there was no
proof of completely, had his picture
taken this forenoon to hang in the
rogue's gallery, and he takes passage
for the south this evening on the first
departing steamer. In company with
Gibson, destined to the State peniten-
tiary, we're Messrs. Simpson and Fos-
ter, who go for two years each, to sat
isiy the law for having attempted to
blackmail Mrs. Dawson. A man named
McCarty also went for a year for steal.
ing a coat, and there were four darkey
criminals who go up for various
offences.
