Trial Jostler Bunch Commits a .11 aa to
Jail wira ls Shipped to Seo- Y Kid?
napping Combination-The Press
Gang at Work-Citizens, take Warn.
D?ring the last six months, rumors have
prevailed in Charleston that men could not walk
the streets safer/ at night without fear or being
Unpressed on shipboard and abducted to foreign
ports. Several Instances have already been pub?
lished In THE NEWS, bnt perhaps the most aggi a
vated of all these cases, and one which Illustrates
the abomination of th-1 practice, and the diaboli?
cal charaoter of (he parties engaged In the trans?
actions, occurred on Friday morning last. We
are indebted to officer F. Nipson for the particu?
lars.
It appoarB that & young man named James
Stewart had arrived in Charleston from Savan
nah In quest or work, and while looking about j
him for this purpose was suddenly arrested by
one Ben Hernandez, a white man, who acts as a
sort of promiscuous constable. In company with j
Hernandez waa a man named Harry May, the
keeper of a sailors' boarding house hi Queen I
street, who, in addition to his hotel arrangements, I
furnishes ships with sailors.
By these two men, James Stewart was arrest- j
ed, and told that he was to he carried before a ]
trial justice, on the charge of being a deserter
from a ship. He answered that he knew nothing
of any ship, having bot recently arrived from
Savannah. The parties, however, produced a so-1
callod warrant from Trial Justice Bunch, on thc
strength of which Stewart was, by them, earned I.
to jail. That night, (Friday) about 9 o'clock, he I
was taken from the Jail la Irons; bat, Anding that I
he was being conveyed towards the water side, I
Stewart managed to escape, and for a rime ran
lustily for life, crying "Murder." Impeded by his I '
frons, he was quickly overtaken by Hernandez,
knoeked down, and a second time secured. The
cries of the unfortunate maa alarmed the entire I f
neighborhood of Beaufafn street, In which the oe-1
enrrence took place, and a number of citizens 11
oame from their houses to ascertain the cause of j ?
the tumult. Hernandez, representing that be was ] ?
an officer of the -police, endeavoring to carry I j
Stewart to the Guardhouse, nothing more was j ,
thought of the matter cn tu the- next morning, I :
(Satarday,) When Mr. Gea A. Howard, one of the j '
neighbors, went to the Guardhonso to ascertain j ,
w h ca bid become of the ?>'K>r fellow, and what I
was his crime To nis astonishment, it appeared j1
that no each persons as Hernandez or Stewart had
been there.- The circumstances were quickly re
lated to Capt' Hendricks, the chief of police, who I
at once surmised that "the man Had been forcibly I
abducted, with the connivance of Trial Justice
Bunch, and sent, on board of some ship in the
harbor. He immediately ordered Officer Nipson I ;
to take the case In hand, and at every hasard 11
rescue the unfortunate prisoner. Accompanied-! I
by Mr. Howard, and Constable Haley, and armed I i
with a warrant from Trial Justice J. G. Mackey, I 1
he accordingly proceeded on board the bark 11
Aurelia, lying In the stream, bound for Liverpool,
and ready to salL Here h9 round stewart In the 11
forecastle, and all the othef bands on deck, except j i
himself. On question1 ag Stewart in the pres-1 i
enc? of the mat : of the ship, lt ap- j j
neared that he had persistently refused 11
to sign the ship's papers, and was to all Intents 11
and purposes a prisoner. It ls due to the mate to I j
Bay that when the facts were stated by the officer, IJ
be conceded that there bad been some rascality
In the matter, and, in consequence of his snspl- I j
dons, had refuted to pay May his usual fee for I j
the new man. Stewart was brought away by 11
Officer Nipson and his associates, crying with Joy jj
at his providential release. Officers Nipson and J \
Haley then promptly arrested Demander, and I 1
carried hf a before Trial Justice J. G. Mackey, 11
who, after reading the warrant ander which he, I,
Hernandez, had.seized stewart, pronounced lt to M
be a document under which no American citizen I '
could be justly arrested, and In default or tin I,
ball fixed, namely, five hundred dollars, sent him '
to Jail. May was subsequently arrested, camed I !
before Trial Justice Mackey, and held to ball.
The next man who ought to be severely pun-11
[shed In connection with this nefarious transie- I j
;ton ls the Trial Justice Bunch. If so Ignorant of J j
lie duties of his office that, on thc represrntation I I
ir a sailors' boarding house keeper an ', an Irre-1 j
iponslble person like Hernandez, he cr.c commit Is
i citizen to jail without a hearing, o- even with- ! 1
mt seeing him, as was the ea-c In l\o present In- (
Rance, he ought to be removed from office; and ir j ,
t is proved, as the evidence indicates, that there
das been collusion on his part, as a public official,
with persons engaged la e jductlng citizens or I ,
Charleston from their homes, then no punishment j
meted out to a first-class villain, will be more
last than that whica should bo visited upon this
man Bunch. It is not tho first time his misdeeds
have been brought to the attention or the State au-1 ,
thorltles; and we hope his Excellency will now bo I
satisfied that there are sufficient grounds, not (
merely for removal, but. to Justtry more rigorous I i
proceedings. Fur precisely the same crime I ,
of which he ls said to have been guilty
England and the United States went to war ! 1
in 1413, and it ls surely but right that under j '
oar own noses a simpleton, dreised in the brief* j
authority of the hour, should not bc Idly permit-11
ted to Imperil the liberties of our people. , vy?.
We learn from O.'U "er Nips JU that on board of I
the bark Aurelia he also found a number of men
who had Bblppod for various places, and receive l j
no pay-the money promtaed them being swallow
ed up by the boarding-house leeches. They I
sta'oa also that they had shipped for various
ports other than Liverpool, and seemed distress
ed as the predicament la w h ich they were Bit- I
nated.
Things have arrived at a pretty pass lu Charles
ton, when a local magistrate combines with j
wharf dodgers to kidnap her cit .zens, and lc ls to
be hoped that an example that will not bc for- j
gotten will be m ide or the guilty parties. Bunch I
la said to be try mg to hush the matter up. No I
wonder I

to those friends lu Charleston to whose favor and
Kindness, warm sympathy and generous friend?

DEAR SIR-It is with unfeigned regret, sad hearts
md deep sorrow that we, the undersigned, with
many others of your friends in this city, have re?
ceived the painful Intelligence that you have de?
cided to ?eave us for a new field of labor in our
sister State. Georgia. We would not be selfish,
hat how can we oonsent to sever the tie that
binds you to us, even convinced aa we are that
our loss will be to those to whom you go the
greater gain. We cauaot give you up without
this last appeal to you, to reconsider your re?
solve, and remain with us. that we may continue
to enjoy your ministrations. Words are too feeble
to express oar deep affection for apd our fervent
love and unbounded confidence la you ns a pure,
holy and courageous Christian ministe*'. Your
faithful services, tint li lng zeal and unselfish devo?
tion have won ourlastlng gratitude, and we beg
you not to leave us, assured ns yoe a-e that . our
min isl rv ls tiot la vain, bat that by your preach?
ing soo s have been c m er ed to God, and In
eternity will forever shine as stars in your orown.
We know only too well the causes that have In?
duced your determination to leave this city, bat
have we ever failed to weep when you were ma?
ligned by malicious foes? May God forgive them
Tor thc wrongs they have done you ! Have not
onr hearts and our homes ever been a refuge,
where we gave you th? warmen? love ?.nd deopest
sympathy In all your persecutions? The false
slanders against you. so far from shaking our con?
fidence In you have only endeared you to us by a
thousand loving remembrances which we will
ever cherish. We have seen only to admire your
Christian fervor and zeal, your consistent w.-.lk
and conversation, and your heroic adherence to
principle, amidst, the fiercest as* awl ts from those
who should have sver been yonr Warmest Irlends,
and we now honor as mach as we before loved
you, and feel that we cannot give you op now,
when the vindication of yonr past course ls be?
coming every day more complete.
Appended you will find a subscription list, with
responsible names, pledged that they will, in the
event of your remaining with as, secure to you a
salary of $3000. This ls more than you have
ever asked of us; but we will gladly pay lt, and
even more, if. by so doing, we can retain you to
minister to ns ia holy things.
Hoping to receive an early and favorable reply,
to our people, we remain, truly your friends,

DEAR BRETHREN AND FRIENDS-Yonr kind let?
ter was placed In my hands thlsevenlng. 1 thank
you from my heart for your sentiments of love
and confidence. We have been associated most
pleasantly as friends and brethren of the house?
hold of God. and the bonds which hind us together
are not' to be sundered by the human circum?
stances of separation.
"Inseparably Joined In heart
The friends Ul Jesus are."
If. by cod's mercy, I have been honored as an In?
sirumeut of comfort, Instruct!MI.or religious hope
to you, yon have been constant and bountiful in
your uiinUjtrrttl'His of Hffectiunate care for rae. My
hap, inesB uasbeen tn p pose in yuur hearts, an I
to know thar, you upheld my ham's by ymir confi?
dence and unceasing, prayerful co-operaUon. If
separation cannes you a pang, it also tries my
cu liragi - and tests my convictions of duty.
I could not remain and labor successfully In
Charles'on, wimont congenial ecclesiastical rela?
tions, and having no church lt did not seem wise
(considering the poverty of the people) co under
take the erectlou of a honse of worship, when
those already open to th* multitude were, for the
most part, si) sparsely attended. My Judgment (I
trust enlightened by God) decided for connection
wini a congenial permanent ecclesiastical Organi?
zation, and a place arnon, my breihren in .such a
holy cooperative vineyard, rattier than the task
of establishing an Independent church.
Your great kindness in offering me a large
salary, as expressive of yonr desires in this direc?
tion, moves me deeply. Your lack of service
enters not ln:o the cuise of mv departure, and
my motives for tearfully declining your hand
some proposition are based on loyaltv "to the com?
mand or our common Lord and" Master. In my
new field of labor, I will have the happiness oi
bearing you aud yours on my heart before tue
God of all Grace.
And now, dearest friends, I commit you to the
love and care of our Heavenly Father, who doeth
1 att^blng?-weH, -am! wric-will bring w -pass
holT wai concerning yon, Soon wa shall reach
home-our eternal home-and there will pe
paid og -there. Farewell. , . .
Affectionately yours,

UNITED STATBS COURT.-The January term
of the United States District Court will open
this morning at thc usnal hoar. The organ
lzatlon or the Juries will probably commence thc
first two days, and the disposing or the numer?
ous cases or the offenders against the United
States election laws will keep the court busy
enough.
ENGLISH OPERA AT THE ACADEHT.-Our citi?
zens wm be glad to bear that the Academy
Music ls to be opened on Wednesday evening
next, by Manager Ogden, with an English Opera
Company, which has achieved great popularity
elsewhere. "Sappho," the star or the combina
tlon, ls an infant musloal prodigy, who sings
Nilsson's songs hardly less sweetly than the di
vine Swede, and who shines alike in opera bouffe
boudoir concerts and the regular drama. Mr.
Ogden ls a host In himself, and the other mern
bers Of his troupe are fully up to his standard
The advertisement elsewhere gives the pro
gramme. The price of admission, including re
served seat?, has been fixed at one dollar-a very
sensible change.
CRUMBS.-The fine gold watch, presented
Moyor Pillsbury by some 0/ bis admirers ls on
exhibition at W. Carrington A Co.'s Jewelry store
where it can be seen by the curious.
The ^'Uome Insurance Company" reported
be ia a bad fix, we are happy to know, ls not' the

is agent in this city.

MUTINY ON A SPANISH VESSEL_On Satur
day morning, thc Spanish bark Joven Deatrltz
now lying at ono of our wharves, waa boarded by
the detectives, at thc request of Captain Kerch
for, her commander, for the parp?se of arresting
one Jose Cuni, an Insubordinate sailor. The ar
rest had scarcely been accomplished, when the
whola crew, with the exception of the cook
stopped their work, and expressed their deter
minatlon or sharing the fate of their companion
Cuni. Remonstrances proved useless, and finally
thc whole crew, eight In number, were taken to
the Detective's office, and placed in the cells
After a short stay, matters took a more promis
lng turn, and, the affair having been settled to
the satisfaction of all, they returned to their
vessel and to work.
Sumrax DEATH.-Mr. T. Bernard-King,
well known yoong member of the bar, was foand
dead In his bed on Sunday morning. He had been
at his office and on thc street as well as usoal'on
Saturday morning, but In the afternoon retired
complaining of feeling unwell. An Inquest was
held and a verdict rendered of death by conges
tlon of thc brain. Mr. King was a native of Wash
lngton, D. C., and snrved gallantly In the Confed
crate army. At the close of the war he settled In
Charleston, and began the practice of law
Although at that time an utter stranger In the
community, he soon made his mark as a young
man of decided ability and promise, and the many
friends whom he has since won wi 1 deplore so
sadden a termination of what they had hoped
would have been a long career of honor and use
fulness. Mr. King's age was, we believe, about
thirty.
CLUBS AND STARS.-The only case before the
Mayor on Saturday morning was that of a care
less driver, who had broken a city lamp-post on
Wharf street with his dray. He was made io pay
tlte expense of the necessary repairs.
Francis Ferguson was arrested Saturday morn
lng by Officer Daly on a charge or stealing a sliver
watch from Henry Mitchell, at No. 84 Market
street. He ls held ror examination to-day.
Dick Hazzard, alias Prince McDuffle, alias
Prince McWhite, was taken up by Lieutenant
Ph ?lippy and Officer Davis for stealing a coat from
S. Strauss A Brother, in King street, and is held
for trial.
George Grims, arrested by Officers Truall and
Johnson, ls held for examination on a charge of
larceny from thc Charleston Hotel.
Isaac Mackey was arrested yesterday morning
by Officer Daly, charged wlthsteallng parts of the
machinery from the sugar works on Southern
wharf, and will bc examined to-day.

AN ENTERPRISING FIRM.-Prominent among
the business houses that have reaped a fine har
res? daring the holiday season, are those push?
ing dry goods merchants, Messrs. Furcbgott,
Benedict & Go. The effect of plucky aud persist?
ent advertising In THE NEWS has been to crowd
both their stores with customers from carly morn
lng until Tar Into the night; and as their prices arc
really very reasonable and their goods exceed?
ingly air aa -Ive, few have entered their establish?
ments without making purchases. Their furs and
carpets, so suitable to the season, have been espe?
cially popular with thc ladies.
