Shell.?Cap? tains Alley and Burnett arrested, on Thursday evening'last, about 5 o'clock, thirty-two miles below Greenville, in Laurens County, John (.alias Shanghai) Bolt (white) and lodged him in the Greenville jail. He is charged with being concerned in the murder of Dr. Shell, of Laurens, in 18G8. When ar? rested, ho was ploughing in his field. When the officers started him from his home, his wife said to him: "Now, John, you reveal the whole story?I kn?w it, and I will tell it, if you don't." John, however, only states that he believes Joe Crews and Adam Crews had tho murder committed. He was recognized by Wright Sullivan and Parks when car? ried into jail, as one of the men they had been plotting the murder with. Wright Sullivan (colored) is charged with the murder of Barton, of this County, and of having been engaged in several robberies here, and confesses to be one of the gang who waylaid and killed Dr. Shell: - He says ho was paid $40 by the party to do bis part of tho work, and that the murderous party was led by Adam Crows in person. Abraham Johnson! alias Dial, (colored,) is charged with being connected with tho murdor of Dr. Shell, and was arrested in Wash? ington City. He is quito reticent, but says: "It warn't all niggers who were engaged in the killing of Dr. Shell." The next is a" negro named Parks, who admits that he was present at the murder of Dr. Shell, and fired his gun in the air, to get the promised reward. He Jives a full statement, and claims that oe Crews is the man who engaged the party to commit the murder. There are a few others to bo arrested, and Captain Alley is looking after them. At all events, the officers have already sufficient evidence to convict Joe Crews and his son, Adam Crews, of instigating the murder, and they will be arrested immediately, charged with the commis? sion of tho horrible crime; and it may as well be said here, the citizens of Laurens have never been wrong in their suspicion of the instigator of the murder of Dr. Shell. Tboy liavo predicted during the pasVseven years that Joe Crews put up the job. They now have the most con? clusive evidence. Wo have heard it from the lips of some of these prisoners ourself. Tney are suffering in jail for the acts of Joe Crows, and there is no telling how^m^ch trouble lie ha? brought upon the poor," unfortunate negroes. His time has now come! It will ho recol? lected that Joe Crews has caused to be arrested a number of the prominent citi? zens of Llurens at various times charged, on tho most flimsy' evidence, of Ku KIux murders. He JinS teTtified and run off a large number of persons?all of which it has long beeji supposed, was done to cover up his own bloody tracks; but ho is now exposed to the public as a mon? ster of the deepest dye, and it is to be hoped that he will bo punished in pro? portion to theso great crimes. The ne? groes of Laurens, who ho has ruled with an iron rod, and intimidated and made to do his murderous work, will no doubt feel great relief nt having his bad influ? ence over them broken. He has caused the negroes great trouble, and bos brought several of them to bitter grief, and they aro now satis tied ho is not their friend. The preliminary trial of John Bolt, for the murder of Dr. Shell, took place before Trial Justices McBoe and Sherman, yesterday, and ho was com? mitted to jail. The evidence elicited is all that is necessary to fasten the instiga? tion of this murder on the Hon. (!) Joe Crews.?Greenville Xeins. Mr. L. Drucker, an old resident of Charlotte, N. C, died a fow days ago. The burglar who murdered Mr. Schute in Brooklyn has been arrested. A telegraphic line to connect Newberry and LanrenB is contemplated. Ham and Eggs for Breakfast.
