In Sundays telegram, after giving the
programme of the Guards and the First
Volunteer Regiment for celebrating Wash
ington's birthday, 1t is stated that the Chat

linger); the regulation sabre OF a cavalry

RAID ON TRAmPs.
rive captured in am ola Houme
Where they Were Car0a-sag

For some time past an old shed adjoining
the new cotton press foot of Fahm street
mas been occupied by party of tramps or
Migrants, who have proceeded to make
themselves as comfortable as circumstances
would permit. Every night they have a
ire, and in some manner have managed to
secure supply of mean whisky, and passed
the, time In carousing and acting in
such manner as to render them
selves exceedingly obnoxious to every
cody In the vicinity. The watchman
at the press being apprehensfve that during
thelr reVels some difficulty might ensue or
confsgration be started, reported the matter
TO Sergeant Killourhy, who at once made
arrangements to break up the gang. Ac-
cordlngly last light the Sergeant with posse
made raid upon the Headquarters and
captured i've parties, who were carried to
the barracks where they gave their names
as PatTicS Reilly, John Casey, James Gle,
Pat Flannery and Eugene Moon, and
were charged with disorderlY conduct
and fntruding on the Cotton Press Com
pany property. They are reported as
hard looking set-with the exception of
Moon, who was sent to the chain gang some
time since for six months for Vagrancy-
are all strangers here, and classed
as tramps and Migrants. The Mayor will
probably mud some useful labor for them
to-day In the service of the city or county.
A sojourn in Cuyler swamp might prove
beneficial.

Mr.. Gallagher or tell any one.

seven o'clock Dora had said she did not
wish to be disturbed. as she was going to
sleep, and she subsequently ascertained

as deceased had expressed her intention Of
taking it.
No other evidence Of Importance was
elected, and the jury returned verdict that

tragedy on the central Railroad.

Information was received ip the city Sat
urday of homicide committed at Lawton-
vile, on the Central Railroad, about fifteen
miles from WaynesbOro. The meagre par
ticulars that we were. enabled to obtain
show that Dave Jones and Sam Rober-
son, negroes, had each hired another negro
to work for them. The latter, 1t seems,
preferred to work with Robertson, which
greatly incensed Jones, who sent Robertson
word that he must give up all claim to the
services of the aforesaid hired man. The
result was quarrel, and on Friday Jones
went to Roberson's house, and, calling him
out, shot him with doubled arreled shot
gun, killing him instantly. Jones had
not been arrested at last accounts. Our in
formant mentions the above as the reported
facts, but does not vouch for their entire
correctness. The Coroner left Waynesboro
for I4wtonville Saturday for the purpose of
holding an inquest, when the correct state
of the case will be learned.

An Old Lady struck with a Brick

Yesterday afternoon about half'psst three
o'clock several white and eolored boys were
chunking rocks at one another on Zubly
street, near Walnut. When an old lady
named Mrs. Knox, living in the vicinity,
went out to call her boys away, one OF the
Young negroes, named Richard Wilson,
chunked rock at her, striking her in the
side and iniuring her painfully. He was
arrested and carried to the barracks. The
practice of boys-white aud colOred-
chunking rocks in the street is becoming
too common, snd should be summarily
stopped.
