Benjamin; being captured while Munson made his Smith was not with them at the time, yesterday? evening Detective Pearson captured him atrtke corner of Girod and Rampart streets, whence he was coo veyed locked up in the First Pie-dnct Station. He is, if possible, the oipst desperato and dangerous of the two, being some fifty years of age, ami uot hesitating to any kind of desperate work. He was first known in our city for bis connection with the Chand ler murder, near the New Baain, in the spring of 1870, when be and one Red Liiidsey garroted and killed Chandlu fori a small sum of money he was supposed to have on him. Owing to a flaw the evidence, he escaped, tnougb Khortly afterwards appeariog for a connection with a burglary at the' saloon o' John Hawkins, corner of Theatre Alley and Common street, when he brokt open the 1 iron safe and carried away the contents.

Oi his return he was found with tools in his possession, and sentenced tt the Parish Prison for six months, whtel time he served out, it expiring a few wc eks He was, however, arrete as a dangerous and suspicions character and sent down, to be released, howeven on the bond of one Peter.

It is hoped that, as he is still at large he will be met some night by a load of buckshot and his career terminated sud denly, as he is of the most desperate description and character. DEATH AGAIN! Chapter II in the Radical Election Chronicle.

Edwin Perrin Stabbed and Mortally Wounded by E. Stansbury. A Ghastly. Spectacle. The fa1! campaign opened yesterday throughout the city in an election in the several wards between the different clubs for delegates to the Parish Republican Central Committee, in which the Pinohbaok and Lewis factions strove for the supremacy.

Mai ters went along peaceably enough until abont i- jo O'ciaek. when a difficulty occurred at the corner of Clio and Baronne streets, between Edward Perrin. lately a messenger -f oi Gov. Antoine, but now attached to the Pinchback factiou, and E. W.

Stansbury. a handyman of. carts in the ward, who it appears, was one of Lewis's supporters, in which affray Perrin was stabbed with a dirk-knife, once in the centre of the inflicting a terrible wound, and which, b. ceding internally, is mortal. and again- in the left side of the abdo- iun, iruui waiiuu iu rauaua jwwuuuw iBambst lSi r.c';;;:v' Gbaatly Maaner.

The immediate facts of the case ap- pf air to K. about as follows i 't Stansbury was standing at the city yard on. Erato, near Dryades, yesterday morning abou.t, o'clock, when Perrin came along, evidently somewhat under the influence of liquor, and, stated that he had come around -there to kill some body or be killedJk Hubert, who was In Charge at the yard told him to go away, because that was no place for politicians, ana the men had! to go to Work. 'He then went to the club-room across th street, and in a few moments returned with a companion ana again oegan -ao maua nsa, saying he oojectea one oi tne commissioners of election 'and he in. tended to kill Murray and Creagb, who are the Dis-ttict and Ward Snporintendents of Streets, told him to go away again, as they did not want any trouble there, which he declining to do Murray walked him outside.

Stansbury, however, backed down toward tiieeorner -ut Dryudes still followed by Perrip, who struck him three or four times. Near the, corner, how-aver, they wherti weapons -were drawn, and Perrin exclaiming I'-' fell rto the ground.

A 'crowd ran up at this moment, and Stanabury was arrested and conveyed to the Second Precinct Station. Dr. Drew, who was called in, then examined wounded man and pronounced either of his injuria advising his friends no' to move him. They, however, persisted in doing so, and carried him to his residence. 814 Magazine where he was lying when our Je port closed, apparently in the.

last agonies of death, hia suffering being Terrible fa the Extreme, and the wounds of the most horrible nd sickening appearance.1 Stansbury who was conveyed to the station, claims that the stabbing was. 'done purely rn self-defense, he fearing for his life. The knife with which the deod'was accomplished is a common-dagger, the blade of which ia covered with blood, and was found on the sidewalk near the scene or the difficulty. This case is the second in the campaign, and aa it has been the custom to have too much blood in our elections heretofore, it is sincerely looped it will serve as a warning, and the last, I THE BURGLARS AGAIN. They Enter Mr.

Dunbar Res- idence and Hake Them-" selves Comfortable. al "J-. i 1 An fAlarm I and a Narrow Escape. 4 Dnring the latter part of Friday night the' burglars entered the residence ol Mr. Donbar, residing at No.

17 Pry ta uia street. 'First going into the parlor and finding the doors looked so that oommunicatiorr with the hall was impossible, they retired and made another attempt by way of the kitchen.1 Succeeding here, and thence gaining entrance to the dining-room, they went np stairs. No effort was made to get into any oi the. bedrooms, but a large Saratoga trunk at the head of the stairs was opened and ransacked. Si'k dressns, lace, cloa, shoes, were carefully emoved and folded preparatory to packing final, departure.

Something must have startled the burglars at this time, for they went down leaving the goods and only taking a silk dress, clock and some kid shoes. In the hall they were attracted by Mr. "Dunbar's hat, which they took along with them. They must bave stopped awhile in the dining-room, for the condition thereof next morning showed that preparations had been made to remove everything like glass, crockery, table furniture, ete. As it was, however, they only took what silver they could see, such.as napkin rings, milk pitchers, eto.

Some, thing must have startled them again, for, notwithstanding their evident intention of cleaning out the entire establishment, they left suddenly, with the silver already mentioned, the kid shoes and the hat. The silk dress, the lace and the cloak were onnd lying in the yard, and tome other articles at the alley gate. Now it is just possible that these gentlemen hear something to alarm tbem. I Only a few weeks ago Mr. Dunbar's house was entered and the thief shot at in a fashion which hurried him down the street at a ridiculous ran Since that time he has been on the look out.

keeping his powder dry, after Crom well's pious and his visitors of Friday night were altogether correct in suppposing they had urgent business somewhere else. It was a timely inspi- ration which saved some of them a damaged carcass. It is our belief that a burglar or two will have his feelings hurt before long; but, meanwhile, permit us to say, thU thing is becoming very monotonous. 11 i PosrrmB Sale of Improved and Vacant Propkbty at Auction Next Saturday.
