1T Is useless ne said, "for US to
attempt the capture upon the water of
shose Yankee spies, who have eyes like
hawks by day and owls by night, and
could see US long before we could see
them. We must let them land. As 7

night, | will conceal myself in the
boat and watch for them. You will
hide in yonder clump of woods. When
they land will signal to you by imi-
tating the plOver's cry, which way tc
Dash to fall upon them-once for this
way, twice for that-and at the same
moment will seize their boat to cut of
their retreat
So it was arranged. One of the
dragons waded out to the parsons
little sail-boat and drew her in so that
the Captain could step aboard dry
shod, after which he moored her out
again. Then the dragons went away
INTO the woods and the Captain lay
Town in the boat TO watch and wait for
events. Events were rapidly approach
aim that he had no conception of.
A big, floating bunch of sedge-grass
1rifted out from near the shore toward
the boat, slowly approaching it closer
and closer. At length it seemed to
lodge against the boat. The Captain did
not notice it. He was looking In tho
opposite dirention. NOiselessly head

head of Robert JamesOn-clOse by the
bunch of floating grass. The next
moment a long arm reached over the
low side of the boat. and a powerful
hand gripped the Captains throat
gripped it with such ferOciOus energy
that it cut OFF his breath, made the
world turn black before him, and
seemed to paralyze him. Before he
could make movement of self
defense, or q sound. man rolled into
the boat upon him. and seizing one of
his big holster-pis tolls that he had laid
beside him. dealt such blow upon
his temple that he was stunned and
lay as if dead.
When the Captain recovered his
senses he found himself bound hand
and foot with the anchOr-roDe. His
captor had stepped the mast. The
little sail was bellying full with fa-
voring southeast breeze. and the shore
was far behind. The next morning he
was turned over to the military au-
thorities at New London as prisoner;
and undesirable as that fortune of war
might be deemed, he at least had the
of knowing that in the
hands of Americans he would suffer
from no such fiendish inhumanity as
was practiced under the English flag
aboard the Jersey prison-ship.
Robert Jameson was regarded as
quite hero in New London, where he
promptly re-entered the service. and
fought bravely until the end of the
war, in Abner Suydam's company

A prolonged howl. compared with
which the famous rebel yell was the
signing of a zephyr through a rose
bush, is just now being raised by the
republicans of the states west OF Mis-
souri, against President Harrison, says
the New York Star. What they are
quarreling about is that, as they
think, the president is neglecting
Them. That is, they are not receiving
what they regard as their share of the
spoils Of the last presidential conflict.
Admitting that the president has dis
eliminated against this part of the
West, the western republicans need
not expect President Harrison to be
better than other presidents in regard
to securing his nomination and cleo
ton and rewarding his supporters.
The man is tied hand and foot, and
what can he do? We protest against
this badger;ng of president who gave
away in advance everything the gov
eminent had, and now has nothing at
his disposal with which 10 satisfy the
ravenous applicants for government
favors. Possibly the western repub-
leans will object 10 thisreasoning that
the president is in no way indebted to
the republican nabobs of New York
and Pennsylvania. because, as he him.
self admits, his nomination and cleo.
ton were the work of "the Lord"
But they must see that this argument
cuts both ways, and that if the Lord
Inflicted Harrison on the country
Kansas had as little 10 do with it as
New York.

Two important questions have re
ceived recently judicial settlement.
A Pennsylvania court has decided
that pigeons are animals under the
law, and the Supreme Court of the
United States has decreed that beans
are vegetables The Circuit Court OF
that district had decided that beans
were field seeds and not liable to
duty. 1t will please every welI-in-
formed man to have these important
matters forever disposed of. 1t is
bard to be obliged to look at pigeon
or bean and not know just what it
is. The legal status of our fora and
fauna is an important consideration

The case of Ellison Mounts, who is
under sentence of death for murder
at Louisville, has attracted the atten.
ton of come philanthropists who think
that his life ought to be spared. The
condemned man wrote letter, which
was published in the East last week,
in which he gives history of his life.
Driven from home by cruelty at nine
years of age. he fell into the hands of
the Hatfelds, and was for years prac-
tically their slave and prisoner, kept
without education and trained in
crime. What chance has he had in
life? The prisoner is now twenty
five years of age. He certainly has
had bad bringing-up, and the gev-
ernor of Kentucky might well take
that fact into consideration in decid-
ing the condemned mans fate.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.

The question OF negro immigration
is attracting the attention Of the whole
country, and the position of the TIMES
on this aubjectis not one Of doubt or
uncertainty in any respect. We hold
that the negro is very important part
of the Industrial fabric of thi, section,
and that it is necessary to keep him
here until his place is filled by better
class OF settlers. He could do great
deal towards civilized Africa, and when
once he is installed in that country, he
will have splsRdid opportunity to dis
play his ability. Before the late civil
war began, the abolitionists Of the
country manifested strong disposition
to interfere with Southern affairs. In
every way possible they exhibited an
inclination to NEEDLE with the affairs Of
this section, and never ceased their
efforts until soon after the close OF
hostilities. In the matter of sending
amigrants to Africa they will have a
grand field for the display Of their pc
cullar generosity, and unless they are
false to their professions they will be
able to aid the South wonderfully in
sending colored men and women to
Africa. There are more than five mil
lions of colered people in this section
who need homes, and Africa, especially
the Congo section, will be particularly
attractive to them. Nature furnished
in the greatest abundance all they may
need, and under the practical foresight
and sagacity Of their white American
friends, they will soon be able to take
a stand in the front ranks ofciSilizatiou
and progress.

The unanimity with which the va
rious land companies OF the city agreed
to subscribe to the fund to present
Roanoke and its advantages to the
public-at-large. is not only indicative of
judicious liberality on the part of their
presidents, but argues well for the
future of Roanoke.
We have all the advantages Of soil
and climate, of farm and mine. What
we need is more people and more CAPT
tai to make 1.-TWO blades of grass grow

a fair, full aud accurate presenta-
ton to the thickly populated centres of
the North of wha; We possess, land what
we desire, cannot fail to be Of advan-
tage to both. We want to show such
people that we will welcome them
among us, and that We as much interest
ed in good goyerument,the lministra-
ton Of justice and the securement OF
material prosperity, as they ara. We
want to show them, also, by full
presentation of facts, that it will be TO
their interest to settle here. We want
to show them that while we honor the
memories of those who fought aud died
for the Confederacy, and respect them
for the sincerity Of their CONVICTIONS.
we have our faces towards the future
and desire to reap ali the advantages of
q fully restored union.
The South has had lis day of adver-
sity. That however, is largely, if not
entirely passed. The plough has turned
up the soil where armies formerly trod,
and wheat and cotton ripen in the
air once ladened with the smoke of the
cannon, and the smell OF powder. The
rugged mountains penetrated by rail-
roads are giving up their loug-hidden
treasures and finished products of the
hand and machine are naturally and
properly being turned out at the seat
Of raw material.
Roanoke's past is secure. The future
will be what we make it.
