RAILROAD ACCIDENT.

We learn that serious accident occurred on
Sunday evening last, on the Railroad about ten
miles north of Petersburg. The train was going
at the rate of about twenty-five miles an hour,
when the ladies car in rear of the gentlemens car,
was thrown off. 1t was dragged a short distance,
when it broke loose from the car ahead and fell
with crash near the track. A little boy about
i've years of age, son of Mrs. Purnell, of Whining
ton' was killed, Mrs. Purnell was herself injured,
and her servant girl injured that her recovery is
doubtful. The passengers were placed on the for
"afo car and hurried into Petersburg, where ev-
cry at'onuon was given to the injured.
Hunnund b. Freeman, Esq. of this City, and
daughter were among the passengers, and fortu-
HAe W., escaped with few slight bruises.
hhiS N0ad Is strap iron affair, and the accident
% was O'o's0ned by the running up of "snake-
neaa' or broken bar of iron. Such speed should
never s DC attempted on strap iron Road. A CON
Ass S. VINO would thus put in peril so many lives,
severely punished. - ~ ~

MAIL DEPREDATIoNs. Frequent complaints have
been made of late of the insecurity of the transmits
sion of money by mail, and the Raleigh papers men,
ton many cases of loss which have occurred within
the last three months, in the transmission of money
to them. But more daring of robbery of the
mail occurred last week, somewhere tetween Chapel
Hill and Salem. On Friday morning.a bundle of
papers was found in fish trap in New Hope creek,
near the Chapel Hill road, which found to con-
tain nine ten letters, addressed to various indvd
uals, with the post bills anc the envelopes in which
they had been enclosed. The letters had been BRO
ken open, and after having been red of all that
valuable, were thrown into the creek. The date OF
one of the post bills and the finding of the bundle,
renders it certain that the robbery committed on
the trip down Thursday, and this circumstance. 1t
is hoped. will lead to the detection of the Tobber.

The Wake County Agricultural Society held a

in relation to the proposed State Fair in October

The old officers of the Society were, on motion

present, and gave some valuable suggestions
and information, the results of his experience as
planter. The President of the Society, Maj Hin

attendance, but he hoped no member would be
discouraged. He spoke of the improvements in
farming which had already sprung from the organ
ization and action of the Society, and urged upon
these present the Importance of steady persever-
ence in the cause

it that North Carolina has heretofore occupied
