1 enclose you n dipping taken from ' the
FnxlcricksburR News of dute July 31, ultimo, the
object being; to give your readers some iiica of
the garbled statements made use of to ouit the
.vindictive priudiceii of the people. I enclose
jon an authentic statement of the ca?e:
Tbls man Keen threw a quid of tobacco out
of hi shop window, hitting a colored man by
the name of MuJisnn., who was, with another
colored mini, guilty of walking along tbe street.
The colored man, In an anjry manner, told
Keen not to throw his tobacco at him. Anqry
words were piven by both parties, and the col
ored man piuiticd up the street. Keen concealed
m hammer In hi coat-sleeve, came out ot his
chop, and rapidly followed Madl on some two
hundred yard up the street, overtook him, and
arked him what he had nail to him. JIallsin
told him that he did not want him to tlirow
hia tobacco upon him. Rome words followed,
whereupou Kren struck Malison upon the back
part of the head, canning a wound from wilch
the blood flowed, siit uniting hU clothes.
Iadnon applied to Mayor SlamjutT for a
w ai rant to have Keen nnvpted. The Mayor
rcfWd him; hence the arnnt by General Terry.
Ken lately came to this place Irom Baltimore, is
aRcliel.Rud like many reurtrudcx that have come
from the North (an editor of a certain paper, for
example), whe, fool-like, suppose they must per
form come act ol cruelty towards the neurroci, In
order to convince the people that they are with
them tn tb"ir preiudices uiruiixu the Mucks
ready and wllllne to persecute the blacks, or do
any other foolish act to intrmtiato themselves
Into the good graces of the F. F. V.'s.
The editor of tue News says that the biter Is

of a Inter bit, when a certain editjr obligated
himself about the time of the breaking out of

tow the Fndiric)cb4rg Netct of July 81.
Kikn'b Case. We tear Keen has pot the
"inilltarj" in "a bad box" even it tney have
pot hm In prison. Doubtless they would be
glad to relear-e htm it they could do so gracefully.
Our advice to them Is to apo'oqize to Mr. Keen,
thtir NoitliPru brother, lor Ins illegal arrest, pay
him liberal compensation tor the time he has
been their unwilling guest, and send him ho.ne
tree of expense, with lull permission to kick the
darkey on wtioH lyinc? tesismony they wronjr
lully Hrrested him. Then he can have his photo
graph (cut tu Harpers, or some other weakhj
radicals, to show how Northern men are treated
by Federal soldiers in the South tor puuisuiutr
insolent negroes less severely than they deserve.
There is not a man who has been concerned in
Keen's arrest who, wlih the same provocation,
would not liavo seized the nrst thing in reach ot
him, and punished the negro. With this con
sciousness, they must feel de'.icio.isly comtort
able in meditaiinc on his arrest and' imprison
ment. Now, ir Keen had only been a Confederate
(as they doubtless supposed), his arrest would
have suited them exactly, aud they could have
photographed'' the atrocious Ilcbcl, with
uplifted hammer, murdering an uuotlendin
freedman. This bcauti'ul 'illustration' lor the
Jovrttal of VtvUizulton is unfortunately spoiled
by Keen's being no Confederate. Alas! alas I
Let Norihern ' 'preacners'' bent threo-yenr-old
children to death tor not saying their pra.vei-3,
and let Boston boardinc-bouse keepers starve
nine small children, but it they come South,
and crack a netrro's head (the hardest part of
biro), they are lorth with arrested and imprisoned
indefinitely.
How and when is Keen's imprisonment to
terminate '( Ho matristrute here Uti a particle
ot self-re poet, or uu atom ot true appreciation
of the dignity of nis office and the sanctity of
his oath, can now isue a wan ant lor his arrest.
He has been substantially tried and discharged.
The negro's complaint was heard, witnesses ex
amined, and decifiou given against the com
plainant. What more can any other magistrate
do?
For every day Keen is imprisoned he can
claim heavy damages. General Grant's order
did not requiie his arrest, aud is no legal de
fense. A'toceiher it is an interesting case of
"the biier bit." The military have "got an
elephaut." and no civil magistrate will help to
get him out oi their cage.
MATTERS OVER THE RIVER.
The Health of Camden. The general
bcaith oi Cunnien is usually good, but the re
cent advent ot cholera among us has caused the
necessity ot an energetic work to be performed.
Munv nlaces are to filthy, tilled with garbage.
dirt, aud other disease-breeding deposits, that it
Is unneraiivelv necessary tne work oi removal
and purgation should be at once commenced
and prosecuted thoroughly to completion, aud
the streets, aliens, and lanes cleaned aud pun
ted. Fur-Dens and other nuisances should be
removed, so that the virulence ot the disease
mav be mitieated in every possible manner.
There are stagnant pools of water standing In
manv sections ot the city wnicn need tilling up,
The Board of Health and the Sanitary Commit
tee should Droceed at ouce to this work, lor the
simple sprinkling ot cbloride of lime, or other
flisiniectants in some places win no nine goon
towards puxitv Ina the city, if these pestilential
places are letc unimproved or are not abated.
Now is the time to go earnestly to work.
Temperance Labors. The friends of
temperance in Camden are unusually active in
their labors. They have a large held botore
them, and a gigantic work to perform In ttiat
Held. JNew societies are being constantly loraico
meetines held, and the provisions ot the Uw
against selling intoxicatmn liquors on the sabbath
str.ctly eniorced. Many arresti ot persons who
have violated the law have been uiadf, who
must answer at court. It appears to be the
determination of tue gentlemen enraged in
the work to see that iho indiscriminate tiaihc in
rum on the Hubba'h shall tv: broken up.
Frightened. The people residing In a
email town culled Catawba, near Kuilih'
creek, Atlantic county, became unusually excited
and alarmed in consequence of the sudden
death ot a. Mr. Kacoacl Babcock. The im
pression at once obtained that ahe d.ej from
the effects of cholera and scarcely euouiih
citizens could be procured to periorm the nect-s-eaiy
rites of sepulture.
Centenaby Meetings. The centenary
meetinm which are being held by the Metho
dists ut various nlaces aud times In KoutU Jer
sey, are of the most interesting character. At
the one recently held iu Ab'eoum villuge, tlio
turn of 1 460 was raided tor local purooses, and
the ceremonial exercises were highly inte
resting. Kkw rirojEcr. Parties in Egg Harbor
City have obiainfd a steamboat to ply up and
down the Mulllca river, from that place to the
several towns ou the coast, and it will also occa
eionally run to Atlantic City. This enterprise,
it is thought, will meet with all expected en
couragement. Tobacco. The cultivation of tobacco la
Camden county is carried on to a considerable
extent. Tbe Messrs. Browning; will realize aooul
$3000 tbe preient year from some twenty acre
ol ground. '
In Sweetwater, Tenn., there is a gigantic
girl five years old, that wetuhs one hundred and
tklrty-tive pounds. Her name is Alice Leroy
Leath, and she is neeciloea as "oiue-eyed, dark
haired, rosy-cheeked, autck-epoiren, and ot a
beautiful countenance." Bhe it the daughter of
a Union soldier who was killed at Keseca.

The (Jbeat Kirrv Thousand Dollar
Fraud Further Investigation BrronE U. 8.
Commissions Sergeant. William Kinegold
Cooper, the yonng man who recently obtained
$50,000 troni the First National Bank ou u
genuine Government dralt with a forged en
dorsfmcnt, had a hearing before United States
Commib'li.ner Sergeant ou Saturday. Belore
the examination of witnes-es wa- proceeded
wuh, David I'aul Brown, Esq., who represented
the cielendaut, took occasion to complain ot his
client having been denied the benefit ot counsel
at a hearing which had taken place on the day
ol h's arrest, pnd paid that he understood it to
be the practice ol tho Assistant District Attor
ney, Mr. Valentine, to deny to prisoners heard
beiore United 8'atcs Commissioners the right
which they eulojed under the Constitution ol
being represented by counsel.
Mr. Valentine said in reply that he was not
aware Mr. Brown bud been engaged to repre
sent the defendant, Cooper, or lie would have
tlelajed the heanng until he arrived. The gen
tleman had been entirely misinformed as to the
practice of himecll in such cu.-es, as he was
always careful to guard the interests of persons
under accusation, and ever rady to aco rd to
them all their rights. Tho hearing in the case
ot Cooper whs merely to give the Coinmis-ioner
an idea as to the amouut ot ball 10 ask. lie
thought tbe Government had a rmbt to have a
prisoner commlfed without u hearing at all, if
its interests demanded it.
Mr. Brown denied this, and said that if he
w ere present w hen such a wrong wus attempted,
he would take care that it was not done.
The Commissioner remaiked that n hp had
known of tue prisoner desiring counsel on the
day of tbe first heanng, tho case should not
have gone on until he arrived.
' The hcarlui: was then proceeded with.
Morton MeMichael, Jr., testitied that he Is
Cathier ol the First National Bank, ami thai on
the 24th of July the defendant cnine to him lu
bank, and staled that he was Robert W. Allen.
Assistant Paymaster United Sta'cs Navy, and
desired to open an account with the bank.
Alter some conversation, being satiaticd witb
his repiesentatious, it was aereed to receive a
depesit tiom him in his individual capacity,
and he was handed over to the receiving teller.
On the cross-examination ot Mr. MeMichael,
he said that the draft lor $50,000 which delend
ant oepositcd in the bauk was a genuine paper;
he could not tell how it came into his hands.
b. W. Miller, rceelvini: teller. tetitled that
deiendant was introduced c-n. Lne 2itll of July
by Mr. MeMichael, who said that tbe gentleman
wished to open an account, aud please to take
it: be took the accouut, and defendant handed
in a package ot $2000 tn notes and a United
Ktates Treasury dralt on the Assistant Trea
surer at rniladclpliia lor $50,000. (The dralt
was here shown, aud witness said It was the one
he received.) The account was opened, a check
book was handed to deiendant, and he lett. The
next seen ol the accused was on the 20th ; he
w as at the bank, and the money wa paid to
him, caw it paid out, but could not say the
amount.
H. M. Lutz, paying teller at tbe bank, testified
to the deiendaut cominir to the bank on th. 20th,
and presenting n check tor 352,000; remarked to
him that the checs was not endorsed, and he
wrote the name ot It. W. Allen on the back ot if;
witness recognized him as the man who had
opened the account, and after ealisfying himselt
that it was all right, proccedt-d to pay the check;
witness remarked to nun taat ne was drawing
the whole deposit out. and he renlied. ne was
not allowed to use the bunks as depositories, and
that he was going to place the funds in tbe
Ass-iftunt Treasurer's hands.
la master H. W. Allen testified that he Is
Acting Assistant Paymaster, U. S. N., stationed
ou the receiving ship A'ew Hampshire, at Nor
folk (draitshown); the endorsement is not mine;
I have seen a lorged requisition upon which the
dralt was issiiPd, dated July 12, 1800.
N 13. Brovvne, Assistant Treasurer, testified
tl.at the drult was pieseuted on the 2(ith ot July;
had no doubt of its genuineness; bud been ad
vised of its being issued, as is customary.
This closed tne cose. A second ehtirge -was
then preferred acalnst deiendant, thai of forging
the nan 1 e ot J. w. i-niriieirt, 1'aymastcr United
states Navy, as endorser otadratt l'or $10,000.
This drait had been presented at Adams Kxpress
othce, in lfultniiore, to be forwarded to the
Assistant Treasurer's otlice in Philadelnhia lor
collection, and had been received upon the pro
duction of papers by defendant to show that he
was tne person ne represented nimsett to be. air.
Scott, the clerk in the express office, lully iden-
tihed tne deiendant as tue personator ot J. W.
Fairtield. He was committed to answer the
charge jreleried against him.
The accused is quite a small man, and appa
rently not more than twenty-two or three
years old. He was aressed in a coat and pants
ot summer material, and had on a white vest de
corated w-ith navy buttons. During the haring
he paid very little attention to the testimony,
and whs most ot the time in conversation wi'ii
a gentleman in the dress ol a naval officer. We
learn that Cooper was formerly employed as a
clerk in Mr. Horstmann'6 military trimmings
establishment. He alter wants obtained a
situation as Purser in the navy, in which he
acquired a knowledge of tbe manner of obtaining
money on requisitions, to be used in the Purser's
or Paymaster's department. The boldness
with which he ooerated, bis depositing $2000
withadratt fraudulently obtained and having
upon it a lorged emioisement, and his visit
to tbe bank two days afterwards, to draw
out the whole amount of the deposit in
cash, shows that ne is bold enoagh for any
thing. He seems to have gone to Baltimore
soon after he got possession of the funds, where
in the month of June $10,000 bad been obtained
in a manner somewhat similar, and to have
made arrangements lor his marriage to a youutr
ladv with whom he had been acquainted several
months. Tbe marriHge had taken place in Hai
ti a ore, and the weddimr party was on its way to
New Yoik city, irom which tbe happy couple
were to take passage U Europe. A state-room
had been euuaged in one ot the steamers, and
tne husbnud no doubt fancied he should spjnd
a very delightlul honeymoon abroad. His sur
pris and consternation may be Imagined when
he was beckoned aside, at tn? Baltimore dep it,
and quietly inloimed that he was wuuted at the
Mayor's oliice, ou a charge which he would
lcain all about in due time. The terra of tho
1 rourt at which Cooper is to be tried commences
I on the third Monday of this month.
