A REMARKABLE ROBBERT.
What Occurred Daring a Raid of North
Carolina Outlaws Into Marion Coun?
ty-A Coal Piece of Work.
[FROM OCR OWN CORRESPONDENT.]
MARION, June li.
The boldest robbery, of even such times as
ve now live in, was committed in this county,
and only about eight and half miles from the
rillage,) on Tuesday night, ut h.
The store of Captain W. S. Ellerbe and Mr.
samuel Watson was robbed In a manner which
il most causes admiration from the peculiar
?oldness exhibited by the thieves. Captain
rhos. E. Stanley had charge of the store, and
ras, as usual, attending to his business, when
it about 8 P. M. he was seized before any pos?
ible resistance could be made, forced to give
he robbers the keys to the safe, and, with his
rife and his cook, locked in the counting
oom of the 6tore. The robbers fastened the
rindows securely, and posting guards, they
ommenced plundering. As a customer would
onie he would be seized, his life threatened
n case of outcry, and marched into this nonde
cript jail. Eighteen persons, including Mr.
Vatson, (one of the owners of the store,)
vere finally thus Immured.
Mrs. Stanley's Infant, in the dwelling house
idjolnlng, commenced to cry. and in obe
lience to her earnest entreaties, Captain S.
.equested the robbe* to let him go after his
lttle child, and also that of his cook in her
muse. The robbers humanely granted this
request, guarding the captain to the bouses
ind back to his place of Imprisonment. When
heyfrerc ready to leave* they handed the
irisoners a lighted candle, and after warning
hem they would be sh?t In case they attempt
id to come out before day, they went off, tak
ng the horse ot Mr. Watson to assist them in
aking off their booty. They made directly for
.he North Carolina line. At Mr. John H.
Moody's they stopped, and took two horses,
?nd at Mr. W. J. Page's they took two more.
The loss of Messrs. Ellerbe Sc Watson is not
definitely known, as the goods were nearly all
taken from the shelves and strewn on the
floor-the robbers only taking off what suited
them, this being for the most part ready-made
clothing, ammunition, shoes, &c. They ob?
tained $-100 in money. The imprisoned party
succeeded, at about 1 A. M., (15th instant,) in
drawing a staple and releasing themselves,
when the alarm was given, and pursuit com?
menced. We much fear the robbers are too far
ahead, for if they left immediately on handing
in the candle, they are far ahead of their pur?
suers. Mr. H. Shaw, a deputy State constable,
is also in pursuit.
This is an account of one of the most daring
robberies our county has known at any time.
The party are supposed to be a part ol Lhe
Robeson County, North Carolina, band of out?
laws. The hand thrust in with the lighted candle
was while, but the entire band, so far as seen,
were blackened. The number of thieves is
variously estimated from Ave to ten.
Since writing the above, Mr. Shaw has re?
turned. The horses seemed to have been
turned loose, after their services were no
longer needed, and were met returning-so
that much was saved. The band was traced
beyond Asupole, N. C., near the den of the
Robeson outlaws, thus leaving no doubt that
they were the robbers. Cannot Henry Berry
Lowry and his band be captured by our neigh?
bor, Holden ? This is not the first outrage the
people have sustained at their hands, and yet
the Executive of North Carolina has not exer?
cised its power to bring the wretches to jus?
tice. Yet Alamance for one affray was placed
under martial law. PEEDEE.
TSE LATE CHARLES DICKENS.
The Family of Dickens.
Mrs. Charles Dickens survives hor husband.
She has lived apart from him ever since their
unfortunate differences resulted in a public
scandal in 1856. Mr. Dickens had buried sev?
eral children, and leaves two daughters-one
; marked to Mr. Charles Collins, brother of Wilk
kie Collins, the novelist, and one unmarried
and several sons, the eldest married and alrea?
dy dabbling in literature, one in Australia, one
in the navy, and one winning high honors in
the university. Miss Hogarth. . a sister of his
wife, has given her life to the care of the fami.
ly, and was with Mr. Dickens at G?d'shlll at
the time of his death. Of his many friends,
perhaps the most intimate was Mr. John Fors?
ter, the biographer of Goldsmith and Landor,
to whom Mr. Dickens dedicated the last edi?
tions of his works; and it seems likely that
upon Mr. Forster will devolve the duty of writ?
ing the life or his friend. The great humorist
had many personal friends in this country,
though In his recent visit his exhaustive labors
as a reader made such demands upon his time
and attention, that he was r.ble to enter very
few private houses during his whole stay. He
was an Intimate friend of Mr. Fechter, and the
mail by the last steamer brought a letter from
Mr. Dickens to the tragedian.
Nothing could well be more absurd than the
rumor circulated in some quarters of an inten?
tion on the part of the Queen of England to
raise Mr. Dickens to I he peerage. The fortune
lett by the great novelist would ill suffice to
support the charges of such a dignity, and lt
would be exquisitely out of keeping with the
whole tenor of his life and writings, to bestow
the titles and prerogatives of. a privileged or?
der upon the representatives of a man whose
genius was one ot the great levelllngjind dem?
ocratic forces ol the age.
Dickens as an Actor.
It was fifteen years ago, in 1855, that Dick?
ens first became conspicuously known In Lon?
don society, as the posseesor of dramatic tal?
ents, hardly less noteworthy than his gifts as
an author. In that year he took a leading part
in the performance at his then residence
"Tavistock House*'-of a striking play In two
acts, written by Mr. Collins, "The Light?
house."' So much was said of this perform?
ance, and so much cnrloslty was excited in re?
gard to it, that Mr. Dickens finally consented
to appear in it at Campden House, in Kensing?
ton, then inhabited by the fashionable, since
become the felonious, Colonel Petrie Waugh.
The play was then performed for the benefit ot
a charity connected with thc army in the Cri?
mea. Thc splendid mansion was crowded with
the most brilliant company that could be as?
sembled in London, and the following was tho
cast of the comedy:
Aaron Ouruock, head light-keeper..Chas. Dickens
Martin Gurnock. hts son.Wilkie Collins
Jacob Dale, third light-keeper.Mark Lemon
Sam Finlay, a pilot.Augustus Egg, A. R. A.
R lief of Keepers, Boatmen, Ac.
Shipwrecked Lady....MissHogarth
Phobe.Miss Dickens
Ths scene was laid In the Eddystone Lighthouse.
Of the performance, a notice written by Mr.
Tom Taylor, next day appeared in the London
Times. In this we read that "Hie acting of
Mr. Dickens and Mr. Lemon was most admira?
ble, not only worthy ol' professional actors, but
of a kind not to be found save nmonir the rarest
talents. Aaron, a rough, rugged son of Corn?
wall, with the lines ot misery deeply furrowed
In lils face, rendered more irritable than hum?
ble by remorse, and even inclined to bully his
way through his own fears, is elaborated by
Mr. Dickens with wonderfulness of detail, so
that there is not an accent, a growl or a scowl
without its distinctive significance. In a word,
it was a great iudlvidual creation of a kind that
hasftiot been exhibited before. Jacob Dale,
the bluff, honest, straightforward father of
Phoebe, does not afford the same opportunity"
-the Times coes on to say-"for refined varie?
ty, but bis representation by Mr. Mark Lemon
was a masterpiece of sturdy, thoroughly 'made
up' reality."
Much praise was also bestowed upon the la?
dies. But tlie association of Miss Hogarth with
these pertormances gave great umbrage to
her sister, Mrs. Dickens, and was a decisive
cause of the melancholy rupture between her?
self and her husband, which occurred the next
year. Nothing in any way disgraceful attach?
ed to either party from this rupture; but it is
one of the ft w chapters In the great novelist's
life In regard to which silence will be most
scrupulously preserved by all those who most
truly honor his memory.
His I<a?t Work.
Mr. Dickens's lost published instalment of the
"Mystery of Edwin Drood," ends in the follow?
ing singular strain:
" 'I wonder whether I shall sleep to-night !
At all events, I will shut out the world with
the bedclothes and try.1
"Grewgious crossed the staircase to his raw
and loggy bedroom, and was soon ready for
bed. Dimly catching sight of his face In the
misty looking-glass, he held his candle to lt for
a moment.
" *A likely some one, you, to come into any
bodv's thoughts in such an aspect !' he ex?
claimed. 'There, there ! there 1 Get to bed.
poor man, and cease to Jabber !'
"With that he extlnguised his light, pulled
up the bedclothes around him, and with anoth?
er sigh shut out thc world. And yet there are
such unexplored romantic nooks in the unlike?
lier men, that even old tlnderous and touch
woody P. J. T. Possibly Jabbered Thus, at
some odd times, in or about seventoeu-forty
seven."
Thus the "Mystery of Edwin Drood" remains
a mystery forever.
Thc Funeral of Dickens-Ills Remains
Deposited in Westminster Abbey.
At G o'clock Tuesday morning, as we learn
by a cable dispatch, the remains of Charles
Dickens were conveyed from his residence at
Gadshill, by train, to the Charing Cross sta?
tion. There waited at the station a plain
hearse, without the usual English trappings,
and three plain coaches. In the first coach
were placed the children of the deceased,
Charles and Harry Dickens, Miss Dickens, and
Mrs. Charles Collins. lu the second were Miss
Hogarth, the sister-in-law, and Mrs. Austen, the
sister of Dickens, Mrs. Charles Dickens, Jr.,
and John Forster. In the third coach were
Frank .Beard, Charles Collins, Mr. Owery, Wil?
kie Collins, and Edmund Dickens. The entire
party were attired in deep mourning, with?
out bands or scarfs. There was no
crowd at the Charing Cross station,
and the procession was driven at once to
Westminster Abbey, where thc remains were
received by Dean Stanley and other officials,
and placed lu the Poet's Corner, at the foot of
Handel, and at the head of Sheridan, with
Macauley and^umberland on either side. Thc
usual flowers were strewn upon the bier.
Dean Stanley read the burial service, the coffin
was deposited in its final resting place, and
the funeral of Dickens was ended. Upon the
coffin-plate were Inscribed the words :
CHARLES DICKENS.
Born February 7. 1812.
Died June 9,1870.
It Is stated that thousands of citizens crowd?
ed the Abbey during the day to look upon the
spot where the great novelist sleeps; and we
may add, that of all the tombs of England's
great men, none will be visited oftener or
gazed upon with more tender reverence-dur?
ing this generation, at least-than that of
Charles Dickens.
The New York World remarks :
Nothing could have been more appropriate
or in better taste than the way in which the
fuueral of Charles Dickens was conducted In
London. In a simple hearse, "without the
usual English trappings," says the dispatch,
the remains of the great novelist were carried
from the railway station at Charing Cross to
Westminster Abbey. How dreadful, how taw?
dry, how shocking to every rational and re?
fined sentiment ot the civilized mind these
"usual English trappings" of the usual English
funeral are, no reader ot the dead writer's
novels needs to bo reminded. The hearse
with its sables plumes, the horses ca?
parisoned in black, the mourners with
their huge bands and scarves, and above
all the mutes-the doleful, vulgar, preposte?
rous mutes-these were all a favorite target of
his satire. And this not only because of their ab?
surdity and their hideous incongruity with the
sad simplicity of nature's universal ordinance.
He loBt no opportunity of making these pomps
and vanities ridiculous because he knew how
sore a burden they often imposed upon all but
the wealthier classes of English society; how
often the scanty substance of the widow and
the orphan was made scantier by the cruel de?
mands of a factitious decency. It would have
been a kind of outrage upon his memory to
have burled him with all these morbid and
maudlin shows of a simulated and barbaric
woe.
ALL ABOUT THE STATE.
Fire in Sumter.
The Watchman says: "The two-story wooden
building, occupied by Mr. J. T. Flowers as a
carriage shop' on Liberty street, was found in
flames on Friday morning last, and was en?
tirely destroyed, with all Its contents-tools
and implements, paints, trimminsrs, dbe, and
several valuable carriages and buggies, be?
longing to different persons, which were being
repaired. Mr. Flowers's loss ls exceedingly
heavy to him. No insurance. The fire soon
spread to the residence of Mr's. E. A. White,
on the adjoining premises east, which was al?
most entirely consumed. The loss here is
heavy and afflictive Indeed. The fire was
doubtless the work of an Incendiary."
Judge Orr and the Blue Ridge Rail?
road.
In a recent speech at Abbeville, Judge Orr
stated that the new route through town for
the Blue Ridge Railroad had been selected
that the injunction granted by Judge Melton
was a temporary difficulty only-and that the
road would be completed at an early day.

TIMES there is a lack of vitality in large and ap?

and decay. Easy and perfect digestion, regular

pa* PHYSICAL DECAY.-IT IS NOT
at all surprising that the aged human frame
should wear out-that a heart that has been
beating day and night withoat ceasing over four
thousand times an hour, over ninety-six thousand
times a day, for fifty, sixty or seventy years-a
Btomach for the same length of time digesting
its contents, a liver elaborating its bile, Ac,
should require assistance and support.
We must expect functional derangement, fee?
bleness, long sleepless nights, mental weakness,
Ac-In other words, physical decay. This condi?
tion of the old and infirm can be vastly benefited
by a tonic and strengthening medicine, which ls
permanent lu Its action; which will Invigorate
the system, strengthen the nerves, give energy to
the circul?t iou and Invigorate the stomach; one
that will brace up the depressed spirits, and sup?
port the falling strength.
