ACCIDENTS IN PAGE COUNTY.

We deeply regret to learn that a worthy young
man by the name of Connolly was killed, on Fri
day of last week, in Page county. He was dri-
wing a wagon loaded with slabs, in the neighbor'
hood of Kites Mill, when the horses took fright
in some way, threw him of, and the wagon ran
over his head, MASKING his skull in a horrible
manner.
We also learn that a party of young men who
were firing at a mark on last Sunday, met with
an accident also, in the neighborhood of Luray'
A young man, by the name of Jenkins. had three
of his fingers shot off, and the same ball entered
name of Friese. Persons are entirely too care
less with firearms at the present time, and more
care should be taken, and less accidents would
happen.-Neao Market Democrat Of Saturday.

COUNTY ELECTIONS.

We have no intelligence from Richmond even
vet. a. to the time when the elections are to be
holden. The tax bill has engrossed almost the
entire time of the House for the last ten days
We learn that eleven Commissioners" have
been recommended to the Legislature, to appor
ton the county into seven Districts. The names
Of these Commissioners we have only learned il
part. though doubt not they will be fully compe
tent, notwithstanding the fears OF our neighbour
ofthe Free Press, to the duty which may be as
signed them. The election we still hope, an,
know the people desire, will be holden at an earl!
