THE TRIP TO FRANKLINToN.

Our thanks are due to the President of the Raleigh
and CASTOR Rail Road, Thomas Miller, Esq. and to
the officers, Maj. Vass, Mr.. West, and others, for
their promptness in preparing an accommodation train
for the company which visited Franklinton Satur
day last, as well for the manner in which were
conveyed there and back again. The Engine and Car
used on that occasion are both new. The former is
said possess great power, and we know that in the
latter had 'lively crowd" and the best sort of
seats. The run to Frankinton-28 miles-was
made in hour and three quarters; and back, part
of the time after dark, in two hours. The Road it.
self, from this place to Franknton, is evidently in
much better order than it has been at any time since
it passed into the States hands.
Nor should we forget our hospitable and excellent
friend, Col. Fowlkes, of the Rail Road Hotel, at
Franklnton. That dinner on Saturday last, was
capital and indeed the Colonel seems better
pleased than when he is attending to the wishes and
providing for the comfort of his guests. "May he
live thousand years. and may his shadow never
grow less." .... sst .s#.....,tl lE ollie. ...ii .-

AFFRAY IN GEORGIA. The Hon. A. H. Stephens,
a member of Congress from Georgia, had a collision
on Sunday last in Atlanta, with Judge Cone of the
same State in which he received several sabs, sup
posed to be mortal. The excitement against Judge
Conc, for committing this act, is said to be very
great, and it was with much difficulty that those pres
snt prevented from taking summary vengence
on him at the instant
1t is stated that Judge Cone had cast some severe
reflections the course which Mr.. Stephens had
pursued in Congress, which led to angry words, and
phens, by Judge Cone, and some correspondence had
taken place on the subject. On meeting in Atlanta,
the matter renewed, and resulted in the sabbng
Mr.. Stevens receiving five wounds. The wounds
Of Mr. Stephens severe as to leave little hopes
Of his surviving. Judge Cone is described as pow
ertul and muscular man, while Mr.. Stephens is Of
diminutve size, and possessing but little physical
strength.

man who came passenger the yesterday after
