The facts in tho case are these, mat one Jonathan E. ^Rhodes, of, Wilmington, was garnisheed by ConstableOco. C. Ward ou the 3d of August ,1874, to answer on the 8th day ol August 1874, at ten o'olock in the loiecoon, as to what rights, credits, money or effects, were In his hands due Gibbs; like a bad citizen the said Rhodes did not obey the summons. 1 was therefore compelled to issue so attachment to briug liis body beforo me to answer according to law, which I did 14th inst. The Constable did not arrest tho said Rhodes until tho 17lh inst., when be was brought before me and said he was ready to bo atlirmed.— 1 asked him politely to take oil bis hat, which he refused to do. 1 told him that it was the usage or custom of our courts that men of all kinds should lake off their bats, and aH a good citizen ho should obey the powers that be, and must look lo for protection himself. 1 asked him again lo take ofl his hat, and was refused. 1 told h im 1 would line him five dollars, to which he made no reply, he stayed In my office some tlmo, when 1 told him be wua not in custody, and could go where he liked. 1 then called on our venerable Chief Jus tice to kuow whnl L should do, ho informed me that if it was against his (Rhodes) conscience, and be was a member of tho society of Friends, to affirm him with his hat on, but to'briug him be fore me again for Li i answer. Constable Ward on the 18th took charge of him again, and ho was brought Into Court, aud after being affirmed with his hat on, be answered that he did not owe the said than. Gibbs anything, 1 have not under takes to do auytbing iu tho i.bove case but what is the custom at our courts at New Castle. Aud tor the benefit of Every Evening let him go to Newcastle at the November term, and count bow many keop their liaison. 1 think he will flud quite a number of Ericud.s who are amongst the vory best citizens in this city anil county, aud they all take off their hats.

A gentleman rau to her aud stripped the burn iug clothing from her, getting his hands terribly burned, while another gentleman came with a blanket and suddenly enveloped the lady with it.

During the past week, Saulisbury Wicomico Co. Md. lias had a Beecher-Tilton affair in a small way to excite the interest of our colored folks. The case was that of the church against William Broughton a negro preacher, who was stationed at Quantico in 1873, and who was dis charged by John Anderson, with violating the chasily of John's bettcr-half-Louisa Anderson. Broughton boarded at Anderson's house, and being a minister, Anderson following the illus trious example of poor, foolish Tilton, placed implicit confidence in hisdearlybeloved pastor. For a time all went merry as a marriage belle, and Anderson felt that his house, family and reputation, were safe when preacher Brough ton was in charge, Louisa was apparently all allegiance to her lord when he was present but in his al ienee, if report be true, she was just as devoted to Billy. Finally by the assidious attentions of Brought on,she learned to neglect her husband, & treated him in a cool and bitter manner. John could not understaud this,and surmising that his boarder was at the bottom of all this trouble, he at once ordered him to seek an eating and lodging place elsewhere.— In reply to this, Brought that he would "leave when he got ready and not before.'* Having to preach at several places Brough ton frequently had to use a horse and carriage. In many of these rides; the now faithless. Louisa accompanied him, and frequently they could be seen hugging and kissing each other, thus giving rise to a great deal of small talk anil scandal. Finally affairs got so hot that the sanctiilod sinner had to leave the neigh borhood. During July 1873, Broughton was sent to Marydel, a small station on the Md. Delaware railroad. Here, in a short time, he was followed by Madame Anderson, who had left her husband, and seemed determined to unite her fortune with that of the minister's. She remained here two weeks and then return ed home. Broughton was tried in Salisbury, last week by a commiteee from the Delaware Conference of the African M. U. Church, but os nothing could be posit ively charged against him he was discharged. told And. r -n Thr South Carolina Nef/ro Riots, No distiirbanc e has yet ocourrcd_at Ridge Springs, .South Carolina, and it is hoped that a conflict may now be avoided. Harrison Bowie, one of the colored leaders, was arrested yester - day and taken lo the j-ail at Lexington. The oolored people were "cominy in and pleading for peace, aud giving up their arms." So says a despatch from Augusta, (la., which adds that the whites are still organizing and arming them selves, not lo provoke a conflict, but to act on the defensive. Advices from Georgetown, »S. C., report that the town is still full of colored militia, and that some of them ore still guarding the jail where Bowley is conlined. Tho Collector of the Port of Charleston yesterday received a letter from the commander of the revenue cutter at George elating that (be cutter would protect Government property, but that there was force ."dequate to protect the liveR and propeity of citizens. tow More Fighting in Spain, A SECOND ENGAGEMENT AT OTEI7.A—THE VIC l OR Y CLAIMED BY THE CAB LISTS.
