issued a proclamation at Carthagena, on
the 10th Sept, declaring his acceptance
of the call of many of the people to quit
his retirement, and fulfil his duties as IA
soldier, in assisting to free the country
from the alarming dcsolation which threat
encd it. lie was to set out for Ocana
about the lst ofOctober. His partisans,
it seems, took possession Of Bogota on

HAvERuILL, Oct. 27.-HoriJle .Ac
tdir.-When will men learn to let alone
edge tools? We fear never. Many
and many have been the accidents that
have happened by the bursting of cannon,
and yet on almost every and any occa-
sion of rejoicing we find men and boys
willing to risk their lives and limbs, for
the sake ofmaking Il little noise, by burn
ing of Il few pounds Of gunpowder. We
learn by the driver of the Danville stage
(Mr. Tice,) that OH the evening of the
Goth inst. two men were killed in that
place instantly by the bursting of small
swivlc, which had been got out for the
purpose efrejoicng at the choice of Gov.
Crafts. Their names are Benz. West of
Danville, and Nathaniel Chamberlain Of
Derby, the latter person having his head
severed from his body with the excep-
ton of a small piece. ofskin. Two others,
viz. Jesse Havcrland and James Harran
were considerably injured, the former
having his arm broken, and the latter his
leg so much shattered that amputation
was found necessary. There was not
the least bruise to be discovered Oh the
body of MIR. West, and it is supposed
that he inhaled the powder. A frag-
ment of the swivel passed very near his
head and lodged in the walls of build
ing few yards distant. The deceased
have both left familics.-.N II. Post.
