RUNNING OFF WITH A NEGRO.

The arrival in the city yesterday

panied by negro man who carried
her bundles, put our people in mind
Of the Matthews Station case, report
ed in yesterdays paper, and as soon
as the girl was arrested and an inves
tigation was held, it was found to be
in truth parallel case. The two
walked into the city at an earl hour,
but were not seen again until about
noon, when the girl was found to
have taken temporary refuge in a
house of i'll repute, the owners of
which, having seen her passing by in
company with the negro, and with
the Matthews Station case fresh in
their minds, called her in and sent
for the police. The negro became
alarmed and fed. and has not since
been seen. The police arrested the
girl and carried her to f. X p. Os-
borne's Office, where an investigation
into the case was made. The girl
was under the influence of liquor, and
it was impossible to get an intelligi-
BILE account from her She stated.
however, that her name was Lizzie
Henderson, and she came from Union
county. Her father. Thomas Hen
derson, was dead. and since his death
her mother married 2 man named
Col. Kendall, and is now living near
Davis mine, in Union. She had been
unable to live peaceably with her

told her she had better 90 seek 4
home elsewhere, and yesterday mora
ing turned her adrift, with q gift be.
fore leaving her home. The negro
who was with her, she states. is nam
ed Bill Gregory, and she has known
him all her life. She and the negro
got together and came on to Char
lotte, but with what object in view
she would not state. 1t is the opin-
ion of those who conducted the ex-
animation that the girl run off with
the negro with the purpose Of living
with him. and that to shield him she
was guarded in her answers. and re-
fused to tell anything about him.
The girl was sent to Il responsible
family in the city TO be taken care OF
for several days, or until something
more is learned of her case. She is
apparently about eighteen years old
and has an uncultivated and rather

CONSOLATION.
BY c. G.

Through the village DER the river, to the
breezes gladness tlinging.
With the glory of their music, are the
church bells sweetly ringing.
Weary. sad and disappointed, hope borne
down by many fear,
|. a stranger, pause and listen. as their
gladstone sounds | hear.
In my heart sweet memories Waken, round
me CLEANS glory vast.
Linking all bright thoughts together, Of
the future and the past.
Holy music, rich in blessing, is the glad
ness of the song.
That the breezes DER the river, from the
church bells bear along.
In my heart hope re-awakens, bringing
strength and life and light.
Love to suffer, will to battle and to con-
quer for the right.
Though cast down, yet not despairing,
glorious words | seem to hear,
Words to make me strong in daring,
words to cast out doubt and fear.
In the belfry stand the ringers, while the
silver song still swells,
But they cannot hear it's beauty, for the
clashing of the bells
Only others. not the workers, hear the
music of the strain;
While we bless them, they must labor:
theirs the labor; ours the gain.
This. perhaps, the holiost lesson that the
holy music tells,
While across vale. wood, and upland,
all its silver gladness Swells.
Yc whe live, who love, who labor, bear
ing, daring all you can,
So you may, by Gods good blessing, ease
one suffering heart of man;
Help one brother to grow better; cause
one sinful soul to see
Gods great care and love and patience
ever waiting ever free
Freer than his holy sunshine or the bless
ing of the rain,
And the freest to those sad ones who are
worn with doubt and pain:
Oh, take heart perhaps no knowledge,
no sweet thanks for help we'll given
May be granted for thy cheering in thy
life on this side heaven.
Love thou on III earneSf working. and per-
chance thou yet mayest see
That some hearts whom thou hast solac-
ed have been blessing God for thee.
