On the 23d of November, 1873, with 'Wet Wright, each party contributing about
no ostentatious pretentions, but will', a
firm faith In the e ffaAlvBness of I-.oncst
labor, and tlio ellgtblllty of Its "mission,
wo Issued the first number of tho Car-
HON ADVaCiOiJfc. We looh back to that
day with & slnccro feeling of gratitude
to thOStj who welcomed it then, and to
nil who have onco-uraged and patronlied
ffstneo, Wo believe It la not boasting
to say that, while tho Carbon Advo
'cat is has not mado a fortune for It
publisher, It has mado a largo clrclo of.
trun friends, Among All classes, who
"pleasantly oi.tlclpato Its weekly visits,
and wclcomo It as a reflex of popular
opinion, In Its sphere, find as an inde
pendent truth-teller of transpiring
events.
During theso six jtarsUlias stemmed
tho current of popular agitations In Car
bon county, and On; 'conflicts which these.
ngltatlons havo engendered among tlie
people. When It has taken Issue fit all,
it has bcott independently, in, what its
editor r.trd publisher believed to bo tho
dcfifiso of truth, justice and right. We
have labored to give U19 people nn or
gan, and wo take tho success which has
Veen mooted out ttfus an carncstof their
apprcclati'inj.
The CyfaSn Advocate is tlio only
rnAKarbnti county that is not ham
5r controlled by political parties or
Sues, and for tins reason it has never
"betrayed truth and virtuous intercst,has
1 tnado no false promises nor taken no
precarious or untcnablo positions on
questions vital to the popular weal. It
has been and Is still a truo exponent of
labor actually wrought here, lias evaded
the "patent outside" erase, and Is to
day tho only newspaper wholly printed
In the county.
It Is with ft feeling of mlugted pride
and pleasure that with this Issun, No
1, volume VH., wenro enabled toglve
to our patrons u paper enlarged from
twenty.four to thirty-two columns, and
without Increasing tho subscription
Tlio price remains still one dollar, and
It Is tho largest newspaper for that price
published in tlio State. It speaks for
Itself. The enlargement is solely for
the benefit of its readers. By It wo aro
enabled to give tliem a greater variety
of miscellaneous fireside reading and a
wider rango of current and home news
gleanings. If tills enlargement meets
with tho appreciation and encourago-
in cut hoped for, among those who have
bo liberally rallied to our support In the
past, this is not tlio only improvement
which wu propose to make. As fast as
possible wo propose to add other merl
torlous points to its columns, until
hhall be pronounced tho ciiKArissT Ami
llET FAMILY NEWSPAPEIt IN THE AN
-TIinAClTE COAL lir.QIONj.
Already there arc many auspicious
'signs of a general revival of our lan.
gulshlng commercial and industrial In
tercsts, and although we may note little
of Its effects during tho winter, we are
qulto sure that after the first of Janu
ary next, there will be now life Infused
Into jrade ; and to this fact wo would
calljtlio attention of our tradesmen,
that, with the extra efforts no are mak
ing to Increase the circulation of the
Cahiion Advocate, Is offered to you
iho choice opportunity to remind the
public, by liberal advertisements in Its
columns, that you are allvo to your In
terests. Our advertising terms aro mod.
frato.nnd bo equitable that tho humblest
chop. keeper can reap the benefit of ad
vertising. Twenty cents a week will
eeenre a yearly epaco of two Indies in
our column?, and no matter how small
and unpretentious a business you may
be doing, be Assured, the investment
will come back to yon ten-fold.
In order to Increase the size of the
paper, wo have Increased our mechani
cal facllUles.and have added many of
the newest styles or jobbing types and
other material for executing first-ctass
book and job printing : and wo are pre
pared to do every description of Job
work promptly and at as low If not low
er rates than any other offlco in the
county.
In conclusion, wo cannot forego the
liberty of adding a special words to our
good friends, who have encouraged us
In our efforts to establish a good print
lng office here, and shared in our aspl
tlons to print a newspaper from it of
which wo should feel mutually proud.
Horace Greely onco said : "Prosperity
always haudsomrly compensates every
public-spirited effort wiiicii the people
of country town make to have n good
local newspaper. It speaks a good word
for them among their neighbors, and a
good word isa thing nottobodlspised."
'lb'rough tho past years of business de
pression, we pushed heroically through
together. Wc all suffered more or less,
and one reason we had to bo thankful
for on Thursday last was that It Is as
well with us as It Is, and that we have
not been more unfortunate In this mat
ter than our neighboring boroughs and
towns. When tho sun of prosperity
again peeps over the Blue Mountains
and vitalizes tho various Interests of our
lilll clad little county, we expect to share
In thfl general weal. Looking back,
then, over tlio past six years of mutual
tugg4 and triumphs, let us make of
thew a twacon to guide us safely over
the nex&sls, believing and lipping that
by honest and energotlc labor we may
all occasionally, at least. I3E AULE TO

' noRo KoNd, China, Oct. 15, 1S78.
my deau Makcutio : Tho recent
stirring events whicti liave happened In
our usually quiet colony are of such a
nature, that many pages of explanation
as to causes, would not satisfactorily
account for tho strnngo and thrilling
Incidents which havo so agitated the
public mind. A few FACT may not be
uninteresting.
The present Governor of IIongKong,
His Excellency Pope Henne;sy, O.
II., came here baldened with the taint
of unpopularlty.nnd slnco assuming the
reins of government has met with much
dissentient and fault-llddllig opposition,
both from tho press and tho public.
During his administration ft great In
crcaso Hi lawlessness and daritig crime
has been apparent among the natives of
the lower orders, and frequent burglar
ies and highway robberies with violence
occur.
Finding Iho lenient policy of the
Governor In no way to Impede their
plans, but rathsr to further them, the
bands of thieves, smugglers, and gamb
lers of the Kwang Tung province have
from time to time made descents upon
the unprotected parts of tho town, and
often with success j and recently, be
coming emboldened by the reported
abolition of public flogging as a punish
ment, tlrcy havo committed a daring act
In tho very center of the town, which
has roused tho Indignation of the entire
community against tho mild methods of
correction authorized by tho Governor.
On the night of the i!4th of Septem
ber, between 12 and 1 o'clock, an or
ganized baud of 80 or 00 desperadoes,
armed with the nativo spears and long
pikes, mado a violent and irreslstablo
attack on the Clieong Shlng goldsmiths
shop, situated In Wing Lok Street,near
the waterside.
Having put out all tho street lamps
for several squares around, nnd disarm
ed and Injured tho native pollee In the
vicinity, tho marauders placed a part of
their number on guard, and then de
liberately and forcibly entered the house
marked out or plunder, by means of
ladders placed Against the front, and
which having mounted, they were en
abled to walk over tho zinc awning Into
the windows of the room over the store.
Finding only one person hero, they
soon "bound him over to keep the
peace" and then placed sentinels to
prevent tho firm or members of the
family from coming down from their
bedrooms, On reaching the store be
low they found a Mllner'a safe contained
the bulk of the prize they strove for,
and fearlessly attacked it with hammers
and chisels, regardless of the noise, or
the alarm of the awakening sleepers In
tbe next houses. Alter half an hour's
labor In Vuln, they cave up that tough
job, and occupied themselves In collect
ing a few articles of clothing, some
quicksilver in u.iske, and a tu;v scraps
of broken silver, gold-dust, fto., which
was In'the worklogajan's till, and were
about to put Into execution tbe plan of
liico'ndlarlsra, as a fiendish revenge for
their disappointment, when" the" sound
of fire-arms caused tbem to scatter, and
they broke precipitately out of the front
doors to find themselves In a shower of
leaden balls with a brick-bat ortwb In.
terspersed, which tho now folly aroused
neighbors and European Police were
sending at them.
During their dare-devil entrance laid
tbe shop, tbe guard outside were chal
lenged by a "lnlrong" or nativo police
man, and tfroy Immediately attackod
him savagely with their murderous long
spears, but not beforo the poor fellow
had given the alarm to the other beats
by blowing his whistle, (which by the
way was found sticking In his mouth
when ho was afterwards picked up In
sensible). Two European police now appeared
onthoBCono. 3oulbownand McDongal,
and wcro shortly afterwards joined by
policeman Campbell.
Tho night was dark, nnd tbe absenco
of tho street lights caused much uncer
tainty In the minds of these three men
as to what was happening to cause tho
alarm, when they stumbled over the
body of tho Chtncse "lukop;" lying In
tho roadslde.covcr.-d v!th bloody wound.
HelnRj-rnVinced that a serious disturb
ance was under way, they sounded
their rnttles, and brought a lot of tho
Sikh police to their aid, who taking off
tho lukong to tho hospital, gavo the
alarm at the head office and rang tho
fire-bells for a general alarm of firr,thus
aronslng tho whole community.
The thrco European policemen now
camo upon tlio outer cuaru of the
thlovcs, and wcro immediately attacked
with the horrible Dikes, and Goulbown
and McDouglas fell badly wounded,
but Campbell killed his assailant by a
lucky shot from his rlllo, and then ran
up to 1110 licau ouice to report anu got
assistance.
Sonio of the Sikh poiico In another
minute met the samo fate as the Euro
peans, but weio shortly sent to hospital
by the arriving squads of officers from
the barracks, who now made a vigorous
rush down tho street and caused the
thieves to lly. Hero they found the
Clieong Slilng gold shop broken open
and a tire just beginning, and the lu-
Habitants nearly scared to uealh by tho
nolie and smoke and excitement gene
rally. But tho wily crew had slunk
away, and only two of thera were cap
tured after a desperate fight. Wing
Loh street being near the water, the
poiico Immediately ptocccded there and
found to their amazement that tbe whole
body of the pirates had cot into a steam
launch, nnd were making off under a
heavy fire from the river pollee, who
pursued Idem in ttio police ag. Capt
Denno, the superintendent, and over
200 armed police had turned out of the
barracks In three minutes from the tlmu
they wero called, but arrived too late at
the scone, and so returned feeling mad
at not having been able to meet the
robbers and give the a wannine.
Tho wounded men were all conveyed
to tho hospital, and havo since recover
ed, and the dead body of the pirate shot
by Campbell was brought to tho mor
gue for Identification and inquest.
On examination, it was found that
about $250 worth nf Jewelry and effects
were taken from tho shop ; tho thieves
leaving untouched about $0000 worth
of gold dust aud nuggets In the safe,
which presented a very nattered appear
anco, having tbe knobs and hinges
broken off, and a large hole in tlio out
er skin at the back lower right corner.
The steam launch was afterwards
found acroes the harbor, high and dry
ashoro with n bullet holo through her
funnel, atul blood marks on the seats,
bhowli.g that some of the persons in her
must have been wounded. The poor
launch engineer, who had been Intimi
dated Inlo-getting up steam and driving
the engine, was found, with his com
panion, in a hut on shore, very much
frightened, and nn doubt glad to be rid
of the company of such violent coun
trymen. Such nn attack as this, preconceived
aud carried out with such diabolical
precision, 'and in defiance alike of the
law and Its myrmidons, has never be.

too well founded, as the sequel will
show) among tho peaceful mercantile

numbers of tho best youths and maldons of
tho neighborhood. They began dancing
early in tho evening aud continued it until

down upon the deer's head, lie sank be.
ueath tho water for an instant, but when be
came to the surface his eves shono arid ' bis
hair was turned straight toward his bead.
Tho girls both struck a second time, bring;
ing the oars down upon his neck. Ho sank
again, but coming up sprang from tho water
and' placed his foro feet against tbe side of
tho boat. The clrls had to tiso nil their
M
strength to kevu It from capsizing, incy
managed, however, a
another blow on- th6 neck,
'fatal one. Tying their
gethcr, tho girls secured their prlzo to tho
boat and lowed It ftthore. It weighed 244
pounds. Thero was a fiesh wound in Iho
right sldo and 0110 hind leg was broken. It
had doubtless been driven to tho water by
hounds.
