Robbery and Incendiarism la North and
South Carolina.
The Danville Times gives an account of the bank
ing, on Friday last, of the tobacco barn of Mr. John
8. Blackwell, residing at Independence, in Caswell
county, North Carolina, about two miles from Baffin's
Station, together with his crops of tobacco. The same
night a house was burned at Mr. T. J. Mills', half a
mile distant:
Mr. Blackwell, seeing this lire, started to go over,
bat bad not proceeded far ere be met a negro running
as if far life to warn him to get away, remarking that
the “ Yankee colored army was at Mr. Mills', had cat
off his head and fired his house, and intended coming
over and serving him (Mr. Blackwell) the same way.'*
The negro, who passed himself off for a colored man
in Mr. Mills’ employ, but who was personally known
to Mr. Blackwell, advised the waking np of the clerk,
Mr. Jeff. Walker, in a dry goods store at Mr. Black
well’s, saying that the <( army" intended robbing the
store, and if the clerk did not get away he would be
murdered. It is needless to state that Messrs. Black-
well and Walker, deeming discretion the better part of
valor, lost no time in getting ont of the “ colored ar
my’s" way. 8oou after the “army," consisting of
perhaps half a dozen, arrived, and breakiug open the
door with an axe, rifled the establishment of sundry
goods, and about three hundred copper cents. This
accomplished, the party apparently quarreled among
themselves over tho spoils, and one fellow weut off
himself crying 1 while the balance disappeared in an
opposite direction.
ATROCIOUS MURDER.
On Tuesday evening lust a party of five negroes
made a murderou$attack on Mr. Joel Heath, a most
respectable citizen of Lenoir, near Pugh's Bridge,
about six miles below Kinston. In the conflict Mr.
Heath killed sue of the negroes, and so ’severely
wounded another that be is not expected to live. But
sad to relate, Mr. Heath lost his life. A horse belong
ing to the negro party was also killed. An inquest
was held yesterday, but we have not heard the result
—Newbei'u Commercial.
MURDER AND ROBBERY.
At an early hour yesterday morning, four negroes
approached tne house of Mr. Gabriel Hardison, near
Croatan Station, and applied for admission, saying
that they wanted to light their pipes. But upon Mr.'
Hardison opening the door, the party fired upon him,
killing him instantly by a shot through the neck. The
family of the murdered man were sitting around the
fire at the time. The robbers then entered the house
aud plundered both it and the body.—Nevobem Jour
nal of Commerce, loth.
EXPECTED “STRIKE” OF THE NEGROES.
Recently, we are sorry to say, that great discontent
has manifested itself among the negroes, having sole
reference, as we believe, to the changes and condi
tions necessary to be made in their contracts for the
ensuing year. Their discontent in reference to this
matter la bold and out-spoken, and is calculated, we
fear, to do the farming interest of the district some
injury. Public meetings havo been organized by them
in various sections of the district, and have been
largely attended. From the various sources of infor
mation wuich we can gather, the object of those large
gatherings is nothing more or less than an attempt on
their part to make a “strike" for higher wages and
bring the planter to “terms.’’—Ktngstree Star, 19th.
ATTEMPTED ASSASSINATION.
A few nights ago, as Dr. AqMcLean, of Little Rock, in
this district, was returning home from a visit to a
patient, living about four miles from his residence,
he was fired at by some one concealed on the road
side, evidently with the design of taking his life.
Fortunately, the shot only passed through his clothes,
doing little damage to his person. It is supposed that
an attempt was made to renew the assault by the same
party or his confederate, as on two nights afterwards,
after midnight, and after the Doctor had retired, some
one forced tho door of his room by violence,but before
ho could execute his.design, tlie Doctor fired upon him
as he made his exit from the door, leaving the steps
sprinkled with blood. It is hoped his being wounded
will lead to Urn discovery of the assassin.
STILL ANOTHER.
Soon after dark on the night of the 15th inst., os N.
C. McDuffie, Sheriff of this District, was returning to
homo a few miles from the village, on reaching
the west side of General Elly Godbold’s plantation, he
was accosted by some oue unknown to him, concealed
on tho road side, as follows: “ Who is that? " to which
he replied, “ it is L" This was immediately followed
by a command to halt. The Sheriff asked " who is
that?" The answer was, “stand where you are,"
and tho assailant advanced to within five paces,
whereupon the Sheriff fired at him with his pistol.
The assailant then beat a hasty retreat, and the 8heriff
fired a second and third shot, when ho disappeared in
the darkness, and was seen no more.—Marion Cres

'J lie Diiituibance of Tuesday Night
It was not our purpose to refer at all to the disgrace
ful occurrence at the Bell-Johnson Opera Hall on
Tuesday evening last, on the occasion of an exhibition
given by the little girls aud boys of the Houston
Street High School. The following note, however,
from the excellent young ladies under whose auspices
the entertainment was given, would seem to render
some comment necessary. What action has been
taken by the officer in command of the troops on duty
at this post, we have no knowledge, but surely such
outrageous conduct on Uie part of an irresponsible
soldiery will not go unpunished. It is generally ac
cepted that the troops which the government thinks
proper to keep among our people are here for pur
poses of protection rather than wrong and insult. In
this instance, the qniet entertainment of the children
of a school is ruthlessly intruded upon by a squad of
soldiers clamoring for the removal of a little Confede
rate flag, said to be upon a Christmas tree, which
the children had erected in the hall. - But the truth
is, no Confederate flag had been placed .there,
but only a few tri-colored banners,. made of tis
sue paper, and about the size of a man's hand, to
gether with the United States flag, and these were in
tended solely for a purpose of ornamentation. But
adn itting that the (to them) obnoxious banner had
been introduced on an occasion and in a manner so
innocent, we maintain that the offended dignity of
the United States Government did not require to be
resented in a style the propriety of which is so ques
tionable. It admits of some doubt if that great
power would recognize such championship, We call
upon the proper officer to investigate the outrage, and
bring tho offenders to justice.
Below will be found an explanatory note from the
young ladies in charge of the children:
Editor Intelligencer: You are aware that the enter
tainment of the Houston Street High School was dis
turbed, and cut short by the United Statos soldiers
last night, on the plea that Confederate flags were dis
played in the hall. Now, however much wemaysym-
pathlze with our native South, and “ lo3t cause," wi
assert positively that there was no Buch flag displayed
in the hall as charged.

SON ot Trafficking in Bottles hear
ing My Name, and Marked 1866.—Those
bottles are made expressly for me, in my own private
mould. I neither sell or give them away, and
NO OTHER PERSON
HAS A RIGHT TO DO SO.
From time to time, for many years, I have notified
parties receiving from me their supplies of Soda Wa
ter, Porter aud Ale that I furnish them only on condi
tion that they become responsible for the bottles, and
return them.wheu empty. A contrary course would
be inconsistent, as 1 charge but 75 cents per dozen for
the contents; while the actual cost of Hie bottle, with
the patent fastener attached, and which is lost with
each bottle l«h?t, is 15 cents, or $ 1 bU per dozen. My
actual weekly loss of bottles at the present time is
from one to two hundred dozen, or about $300. These
are facts, aud can be vouched tor by those iu my em
ploy aud proven by my books, also by statements from
the glass mannfaetmvrs, which will show the thou
sands of dollars annually paid them by me for those
bottles which have becu lust, without any remunera
tion by those to whom they were entrusted, and who
attach so little value to them, simply because they
have never been compelled to pay for any. But they
should bear in mind that they may at any time be
brought to an account.
My best efforts—and, in fact, the best part ef my
life has been devoted to this business, and with a de
sire to conduct it iu such a manner as to give general
satisfaction to all, and to furnish all articles in my
line i which I have dou« ) at as low a price and of a su
perior quality to any similar articles offered. Such
has been my past, such shall be my future course;
and iu now asking my patrous to be more careful of
my bottles, aud return them all to me when empty, I
simply ask my rights. Those failing to comply with
my very just demand will be compelled to do so le
gally. Respectfully,
