with its management—especially (lie fare—
and the house lost reputation as fast as it
had gathered it. Thus things inovod along
until Tuesday night, when unsuspleioncd,
Carhart skipped the town. When it was
known that he was gone, It was ascertained
JJiat several citizens had been trapped Into
trusting him, and had lost various sums by
him, among whom wero Humphrey nnd
Robinson, two butchers, who together Imd
lost over $50, nnd a little negro who waited on
tho hotel during court week, who lost $1.50.
The 1st Inst, was settling day, nnd Carhart
collected every cent lie possibly could from
Ids boarders, nnd put all In Ids pocket.
The above tolls In a few words Cnrhart’s
career in tills city, but after be was gone T. C.
Lloyd, who came hero with him as his stew
ard, took charge of the house, nnd ran It un
til Thursday night, when he too made an at
tempt to rsenpe. It is reported that ho left
without Informing any one of his Intended
departure, and walked down to Thomas’sta
tion, a little railroad house some six miles
below here, where ho “waived down” the
train and got aboard for Milieu. Bailiff Jim
Lawson was soon put on tho trail, nnd had
old man Lloyd back by the early morning
train Friday. Then came trouble for the old
man. Dining the day Thursday bo went to
a linn In the city who were not aware that
Carhart had gone, and purchased a flue pair
of shoes, giving an order on Carhart, wlmm
Tie knew had gone, in payment for them.—
Tills brought 111 in under the statute for cheat
ing nnd swindling, for which offence he was
tried Friday, before tho county court, con
victed, nnd sentenced to pay a line of $100 or
eight months In tho chain gang. He asked
for (on days to hear from his friends Nortli to
raise the money to pay ills lino, which was
jjrnntod. lie is now in Jail awaiting nn un-
”swcr from letters and telegrams, and ns he
claimed to have property In Trenton, N. J.,
we suppose lie will he able to pay out.
Some three or four weeks ago wo received
an enonymous note, written upon the busi
ness oard of a Florida hotel, but mailed in
Savannah, covered by a plain envelope, de
nouncing Carhart ns a scoundrel, but ns we
pay no attention to anonymous writings, we
merely banded Iho curd to Carhart, who at
tributed the writing to some man whom ho
allodged lie hud irealed very kindly, blit who
in return had treated him very badly. Car
hart declared lie intended to search out the
writer, nnd liavo him punished. Tho matter
passed off, and was forgotten, but the se
quence proves that there was “more tiuth
than poetry” to the stalementsof that card.

A Desperado Captured.
Wednesday evening while enjoying tho
comforts of a good fire, and noticing the pns-
sers one by one, they brought fresh to mem
ory the thoughts of lour years ago. When I
was closely engaged in my business and no
ordinary footstep attracted my attention, but
suddenly it was, wtion a quick step, the limp

“Who Is he?” I enquired.

Ah Old I’aprr.
On Thursday night. Deputy Sheriff Zorn
captured Armstead Green, a colored despera
do, after a desperate struggle. This fellow
was an escaped convict, and was sentenced In
the superior court of tills county, December
1st, 1880, for 10 years for burglary. Ho nindo
bis escape May 20th, 1883, and has been tit
large ever since. He was discovered at No. 1,
C. R. It., by a negro preacher whom Deputy
Sheriff Zorn had sent there to “spot” him.
Tills preacher decoyed him to Waynesboro
,for $2 and a quart of gin. As tlio prisoner
entered the church yard, Zorn was on lmnd
with assistant, Red llurdwick, who for tho
tiino was a burnt-cork artist. Tho colored
preacher npprouchcd wit la his man, when
Zorn seized him, and succeeded In clasping
tlio cuffs on one hand. Then tlio struggle bo
gan. Zorn Is a powerful man, and when
Green caught tho other cuff In his hand,
tripped and throw him heavily to the ground
but lie would not yluld. Zorn grasp his hands
and directed his assistant to stamp him In
tho face until he gave up. It required only a
few applications of Hardwick's boot heels to
cconipllsh tho Job, and Green threw up his
hands, and submitted to have the cuffs lock
ed on tho remaining hand. Even then ho
was stubborn, and refusing to walk, allowed
himself to bo dragged several hundred yards
by the bands, the culls wearing tho skin from
Ills wrists. Then lie camo to Ids senses, nnd
consented to walk to tho county hotel, Zorn
carried Green back to bis old quarters, at
Bondurunt, Joplin & Go’s, brlok yard In Au
gusta, where bo went to work In the black
smith shop. Green says, however, lie don't
mlml that, as he has already got away from
thoso men, and tntonds to get away again.
Green had on his porHon when captured a
pistol of a peculiar pattern, of 82-eullber, aud
a powerful weapon. He lmd also In Ids.pos
session two find gold rings, a pair of fine ear
rings, with fine Turquoise stone sets—ono of
tlie rings with a corresponding set, and a fine
set of cuff-buttons, the latter lie claims' be
longs to him. All this property Is subject to
claim. lie says ho got the Jewelry out of
trunks which were taken from some depot on
tlio Augusta it Savannah rntlroud, and for
which robbery ho was run out of Richmond
county by Uapt. 1‘urooll.
There was a reward of $50 for Green, whloh
was duly paid to Zorn, which he generously
divided with the colored preached. The coun
ty Is to be congratulated upon tho confine
ment of such a desperate ehuruetor, und Zorn
deserves tlie commendation of tho pu lie for
Ids pluck and energy In making the urrest.

Thomas II. Cox handed us a few days"
age a copy of tlio Waynesboro News, bearing
date September 5, 1800, and published by W.
A. Thompson, who died In the front of tlie
battle on the bloody field of Malvern II111. ^
The News was a 4-pnge, 7-column paper,
and was certainly neatly printed; but time
lias stained its pages and they are yellow and
worn. Tho paper was made up after the style
of that day, and lias no distinct department
•nr the local news of the, then town, and
county, tlio locals, and there are few of them
being mixed up with tho editorials, which,
all together, do not occupy quite a column.—
Tho only two locals In tho paper Is one an
nouncing that Judge Johnson had made a
political speech In Waynesboro tho day be
fore, and one denying that Col. 11. W. Whit
field had retired from tho candidacy for tax
receiver. The only editorial Is about half a
column headed “Free Negroes,” and to the
action of a public meeting In South Carolina.
The advertising columns presents a more
interesting feature of the paper. In glancing
over tiioso columns we find that tlio Augusta
merchants occupy most of the space. Tho
names of several of the business men whoso
advertisements appear in the News, are still
In business, and some of them have their ad
vertisements now running in Tiik Citizen.
We do not observe the name of a single house
or firm doing business In Waynesboro to
day among tlio advertisers. Many of thorn
wo know are dead, some have moved away—
but not one remains. Among'tlie professional
cards, wc see tlio cards ot Judge E. F. Law-
soil, Jones, Rodgers & Roberts, .las. G. Bur
ton, Stephen A. Corker, Jones A Sturges, Ash
ton & l’rosoott and John P. C. Whitehead.
Dr. C. A. Thompson and Dr. R. 11. Oakman
have their cards in tlio paper.
Of tlio attorneys above mentioned, Jones,
of the firm of Jones & Sturges, (Col. J. J.
Jones) Judge E. F. Lawson, and Rodgers, of
the firm of Jones, Rodgers A Roberts, (Capt.
A. M. Rodgers) are still hero, and engaged in
tho active praotlco of their profession. Ash
ton, of the firm of Ashton A Prescott, (Col.
John D. Ashton) Is practicing Ids profession
In Swnlnsboro, Ga. Tho remainder of the list
of lawyers liavo all died or moved away.—
Nolthor of tho two physicians named above
are boro now—both are probably dead.
Among tho legal advertisements wo notice
several Ordinary’s notices, bat not a single
shorltUs sale. The people In thoso days seem
not to have required the Intervention of th
sheriff to persuade them to pay tholrdobts.—
It was lnthoduys when liurko county was
an empire within Itself. Little did they know
then what terrible hardships which, were to
dose in ruin,lay before them within Hie period
of the next four yoars. Tlie most interesting
article in tlio columns of tills number of tlie
Nines Isa thrilling account of the bade of
Buena Vista, Mexico, tlio perusal of whloh
doubtless aroused tlio martial ardor of
Burke’s young chivalry. n»foro another
year bail little more than half gono, they had
themselves boon bathed in the llumo of bat
tle’s baptismal.
Altogether this old paper Is a most Interest
ing record of Hie past, anil calls lip to the
memory names of frluiuls and acquaintances
which were swept away by the ruthless hand
of war, or liavo since peacefully passed away
at homo.
