Robbery and Murder by a Negro In Vir
ginia. From the Norfolk Day liok, Dec. 25.
A most diabolical attempt at murder and suo
Best ful robbery was perpetrated lu Southamp
ton, on Sunday night last., by a brutal negro, on
the person of one of the clerks In Mr. Preilow's
Stoie. We get our Information from the pas
Bangers by lust night's train on the Norfolk and
l'etersburg Ilailroad, from which It appear
that on Sunday night a negro by the name of
Henry Williams went to Mr, Pretlow's store
and aroused the clerk, who was asleep. On
being admitted he stated that he wanted some
camphor for bis wife, who was sick. The clerk,
unsuspicious of anything being wrong, put np
the camphor, and the negro handed hliu a one
dollar bill; the clerk going to the cash
drawer for change, was In a bending position,
when Williams drew a pistol and shot blm, the
ball taking effect in the neck. The object of the
negro was robbery, as he Immediately took pos
session of the money-drawer, and carried off a
bag of money, containing about eighty dollars
in gold, sliver, aud currency, with which he
made off. The physician attending the wounded
young man pronounced the wound to be fatnl.
We understand that the nearo Williams made
bis appearance early yesterday morning at the
tore of Mr. 8. H. Marshall, at the Ivor Depot, it
is thought to carry out his murderous scheme
there also, but finding two young men present
there, he was frustrated. We are glad to be
enabled to state that this villain was arrested
yesterday and lodged in Jail. On his person
vas found all the money with, the exception of
about five dollars.
The Newark Mystery Cleared Up.
The Newark (N. J.) Advalistr of last evening
baa the following:
"Detective Brant and Officer J. B. Smith, after
baving made a thorough Investigation of the
aflair that has oaused so inucu talk, and given
rise to so many rumors throughout the city
tLe finding of the pools of blood on the Morris
canal, and the suggestive holes in the Ice, with
the hats near them have doubtless solved the
mystery. The story when correctly told runs
this way: A man named James Harrison,
after finishing his work on Christmas Eve,
went into the lower part of the city to collect
some money. On his way he stopped at one
Harrigan's saloon, and drank freely. From
there he took the path along the canal. Oppo
site the foot of Monroe street he foil down
from the sidewalk, which at this polut
is fonr or five feet above the canal, into
the canal, cutting his bead in two or three
places, from which the blood flowed In large
Quantities, lie called loud y for assistance.
Two men hd him and came to his relief.
"With much dlfliculty for It is probable they
Were Intoxicated they pulled him out and
placed him ami In on the walk. lie then turned
bis steps towards home, stopping frequently on
the way to drink. Arriving at his house he
went to bed and, slept soundly till yesterday, In
total ignorance of the rumors that, his mishap
bad given rise to, and of the efforts that were
being made to recover bis body from the bot
tom of the canal. He claims one of the hats
that were found, and thinks it probablo that
the other belongs to one of the men who came
to bis assistance,"
An Alabama Tragedy.
The Tnscumbia (Ala.) Times of the 10th relates
that on bunday, the 8th, at Dr. De OraUenreld's
bouse, on the road between Courtlandt and
Tuscaloosa, a terrible tragedy occurred. A Mr.
Bjlggs, a Methodist preacuer, who had been at
one time confined in the lunatic asylum at
Tuscaloosa, was staying at Dr. De Graffeuretd's.
Early that morning the doctor and Mr. Brlggs
were sitting by the fire, and Mr. Brlggs was
abusing his wife, irom whom he had been
separated, when Dr. De OrafJenreld told
blm be ought not to abuse his wife so,
whereupon Briggs picked np a balf-made
xehandle and struok the doctor on the head,
felling him to the floor. He then struok him
gain, killing him Instantly. Mr. Noah, who Is
u old man, rushed in to help the doctor, and
be was Immediately killed with the same
weapon. Mrs. Noah, hearing the noWe, went
Into the room, and Brlggs killed her in thesarae
manner. A little boy who was in the room
aaved his life by getting under the bed. He
aye that after Brlggs bad killed all these he
went around and struck them each one a heavy
blow on the head. Alter he had satisfied him
self that they were dead he took a pair of shoes
belonging to Mr. Noah, and left the house In
Ills stocking feet.
The Washington Tragedy,
The Washington Clironiele of yesterday gives
the following particulars of the Christmas
tragedy in that city:
"On Christmas night, as John Taughman,
David 11 wood, and Michael H. McUeury were
taming the corner of L street north and Con
necticut avenue, the former ran against a
colored man who wus passing up Connecticut
avenue in company with a woman. Ho, ills
said, turned.'aud, drawing a revolver, fired at
Lougbwau, who full, saylug 'lamshoU' Both
xnan and woman, lu the confusion, escaped.
Otiicere Rossiter aud Taylor were soon up'iu
the spot, and assisted In removing the
wounded mau to the house of Mr. William
Lnney, in the immediate neighborhood. Dr.
J. C. Oroggon was called lu and pronouueed the
wound a mortal one, the ball having entered
the left breast oue and a half inches below the
. 111 nlrpie, near the region of the heart, aud
pasxed out of the back. Yesterday the sull'oier
was removed to Providence Hospital, where he
received the kindest attentions from IbeUlsters
of Charily, and, though there were no hopes of
bis recovery, he was still alive at U o'clock last
Ulgtiu laugbmau U a stonecutter by trade,
aud unniHrrled; he has been boarding at the
bouse of Mrs. Davis, corner of Twelfth and V
si reels. The police aie on the lookout for the
murderer."

The Pittsburg Clironiult of last evening gives
the following dubious case of robbery:
"Yts'erdsy morning, a man giving his name
as Daniel Ulrleh, hailing from Keokuk. Iowa,
arrived at the Union Depot, on the 1O-40 train
ou the Pittsburg. Kort Wavne, and Chicago
railroad. Bteklng out the otlloets of the depot,
be announced that he bad been robbed of a
pockelbook containing $H500 In bills. He said
the money was in six $1000 bills, and five
$100 bills, and had been contained In
a wallet which he had carried in an
inside vest pocket, and showed an awk
ward, rugged cut in his vest, which, he
aid, had been made by the thief. If that be
true the thief succeeded much better than he
deserved, for, from the appearance of the cut,
be was at best but a bungling thief. Mr. Ulrlcti
aid he could not tell whether he bad been
robhed ou the Ualn or while standing on the
i atKorl Wayne, and had not
the slightest idea as to who committed the rob
bery. He seemed not to feel his loss very
keavlly. and after slating his case to the oln

111E ALLEGIANCE QUESTION.
"Historians'1
a American Naturalisa
tion. "niftorlcos," who, it will be remembered,
acquired considerable repr tatlon In England an
a writer on international law upon the various
points elicited during the American civil war,
rndeavois to answer the question, "Who
BritUn subject T" In aloug letter to the Lond m
limes. 'Histoncns" (Mr. Usrcourt) writes
under the lufloence of the telpgtaphic abstract
ot President Johnson's message relative to thi
principles upon which the English lovrnuent
bases Its claims of HiUish citizenship, and the
inability ot an English, subject to expatriate
himsili.
First, Mr. Hoi-court endeavors to ascertain
who. according to the law of England, is a na
tural born British subject, and as such entitled
to the protection of the British Crown. The
simple doctrine of the common law is that
every man born within the dominions of the
Crown Is born witblu the lcgisnce of the Crown
and is a British subject, whether the Parents
are British subjects or aliens. By a statute ol
(ieorire II all cniMren of natural-born British
subjects born abroad were made natural-oorn
subnets. The maxim of this Indissoluble allegi
ance which It here laid down has noplace in
the doctrine of public law. It had Its origin lu
a system which Is obsolete, and found Its applica
tion in a condition ol' society which has parsed
away.
A new order of things has arisen. That great
and never-ccasin? tide of emigration. In which
the pons of English soil seek in other lands a
fortune which the limited resources ot their own
country deny to them, is a phenomenon for
which the conceptions ot the feudal law nude
no provision. The consequence is, tint the
EneiiHh Government is 1n the presence of p ill
ticul lac s which arc wholly Irreconcilable with
any legal theory.
Mr. llsrcoutt says: It is in vain thst we
prodtlm the docrine, Memo potest exuere
patrinm, wtrle jenr by year thousands and tens
of thousauds of our subjects are transferrine
their allegiance to o'her Governments aud
Incorpoiatlns thr-rnp elves in other States.
These are tacts which the technicality ot the
law may refuse to recognize, but ot which an
mlk'lreiied btatctuifanlilp must needs take
account. Mr. Harcourt believes that the Alle
giance acts should be reconstructed, both with
respect to the acquisition ot citizenship and
also as to expatriation. Here are his sugges
tions: First. British citizenship should belong, as of
course, only to persons born of British parent,
domic led in the British dominions.
Becond. The children born to foreigners In the
British dominions should, as to France, have
the capacity to take up their citizenship.
Thud. As to descendants born abroad of Eng
lish parents who are domiciled abroad, an elec
tion should bo given to become citizen, to bo
testified by certain prescribed formalities.
Fourth. Every British subject should be al
lowed to withdraw himself irom the State by
some lor una I act disclaiming his citizenship.
Filth. Certain acts should be denned as con
stituting in tbemsolvcs a lorfeiture of citizen
ship, whether so disclaimed or not.
TLe London Times editorially supports the
views of 'Historicus," aud says:
The important question, however, is one of
policy rather than of law, and we freely admit
that, on grounds ot pol cv, not to say of com
mon sense, the argument tor revlaion is lrreain
ible. There are certainly hundreds of thou
sands, and probably millions, of ciuzens of the
United States whom our law regards as British
subjects to nil intents and purposes whatsoever.
Mo statesman can justify such an anomaly,
which, it niUKt be remembered, has two aspects.
If all these Irish emigrants owe allegiance to
her Majesty, it may also be doubted, at least,
whether they are not entitled to our protection
against conscription, yet it would have been
utteriv Impossible for our Minister at Washing
ton to wariant them such protection during the
late American war. lu snort, onr present
theory is quite uutenable when any practical
strain comes to be put upou it, and, as "Histo
ricus" justly contends, its maintenance muv at
any moment occome me source or very serious
embarrassment. We see. then, no good reason
whv the Briti-h Government shou.d decline any
friendly overtures that may bo made by the
United States with a view to its amendment,
