NEW CASTLE.


Special Correspondence of State journal
New CASTLE, May 14.-William Black, Esq,
now in the banking and brokerage business
in New York, arrived home yesterday on
visit. He is looking decidedly better thaD
when last among US.
MIR. Thomas Fortescue, one of the Court
bailiffs, was taken with slight rush Of blood
to the head while on the train coming over
from Wilmington last evening. He was taken
into the depot on the arrival OF the train and
the proper reatoratives applied, when he re
covered, and il now entirely recovered. The
attack is attributed to the heat of the court
room, where he had been all day on duty.
There was quite an excitement at the
Mayors office yesterday owing to female
citizen of African descent getting on the war
path. 1t appears that neighbUr loaned her
some months ago two pair of bedsteads to
use until wanted. Yesterday they were called
for, but the temporary owner refused Ia give
them up. Complaint was made before the
Mayor and II warrant issued and placed in the
hands OF Officer White, who went for that
defendant, who was found in complete state
of nudity, and informed the officer now TO
take her, she was ready. or course Officer
White had to withdraw, but by the use of
strategy succeeded later in the day i'll finding
ditiou, when she was arrested and taken
before his Honor, who imposed the usual
penalties. These she refused to pay and
declared her intention of retaining her liberty.
and it was only after Il considerable resistance
that she waa carried OH to the jail, screaming,
kicking and lighting.

LAUREL, May l7.-Three burglaries
were committed here last night. The
stores of L. !. Richardson, Marvel x
White and Mrs. Martha +. Lewis We're
entered. The booty obtained was, how
ever, small. From Richardson they
obtained from IS to $40 in small change.
At Marvel x White. some small change, a
revolver and some other tritiing articles,
are all that have been as yet named. AT
Mrs. Lewis in trying to pry into the fire
proof safe the thieves broke off the handle
Of the door. So far as she is aware there
is no further loss. They also made several
unsuccessful efforts at other places. Il.

Rain-in-the-Eace.
TELLS THE STORY OF CusrER's DEATH

The Mi'caukee Sent;nel's correspondent
at Miles City, Montana territory, telegraphs
sensational matter in the shape of state
ment by Rain-in-the-F Face, the Indian chief
who killed General Custer in the memorable
Indian fight of June 81, 1876. From that
day to this there has been mystery hang
ing about the affair, from the fact that not
man Of General Clusters little band es-
capped death TO tell the story of their fate,
aud the historian has no other source from
which to fill the page than the horrible
Imagination which clustered around the
dead and mutilated bodies of the gallant
commander and his troops, heightened by
the memories of the smoldcring ruins of
the Indian village to capture which they
paid the penalty Of their recklessness with
their lives. While the correspondent was
in the merchandising house of Mr.. j..
j, Graham, at Fort Keogh, three Indian
chiefs, Rain-in-the. Face, Two Roads, and
Spotted Eagle-who surrendered to Cen
eral miles last spring, came in, as is their
custom, being encamped only two miles
away, on Tongue river, for the purpose of
conversation with Mr.. William NJ. Court
enay, the clerk and interpreter of the es-
adjustment, in whom the Indians reigiously
believe, MIR. Courtenay was reading Whit.
takers Life Of Custer, and in turning the
leaves Of the book one of the Indians
caught sight of his own picture, which he
Immediately recognized. They then took
the book from Mr.. Courtenay, and found
all their portraits, but exhibited very little
emotion OF pleasure or otherwise, until one
OF them turned page and the picture of
General Custer was revealed. AT this Rain
in-the-Face became greatly excited, going
through all the gyrations of the war-dance,
aud giving the Sioux war-hoop at the top
of his voice. After he had got through
with his wild demonstration, but still ex.
hibiting the greatest anger, he struck the
picture with his hand, aud with demoniac
sneer ON his face, exclaimed in the Sioux
tongue: ~ killed him. made many holes
in him. He once took my liberty, took
his life. am glad l did" On being told
by a bystander that General Custer was
still living, Rain.in-the-face became very
violent, aud Kissed between his teeth:

1t lie superstition among the Sioux that
by eating the liver Of a valorous victim the
warrior SO eating obtains all his cunning
and prowess. This is the first authentic
account Of Clusters death ever given.
