MELANCHOLY CATAsTRoPnE.-On Saturday last,
while the hands engaged in putting up the Rail
Road Bridge near Browns mills two miles west of
this place, one of the supports which rested upon
an insecure foundation the middle of the river
gave way and the whole frame precipitated into
the stream, distance of about sixty feet. The
Superintendent, Mr. Wells, and eight of the hands,
the frame at the time it fell but all of them
escaped with their lives, though several were badly
injured. Mr.. Wells received the worst injury, hav
ing had one of his thigh bones broken, and aligaturs
near the knee ruptured. OF the others injured, five
were white hands, and three black. Some of these
received severe cuts on their faces and others
badly bruised. Surgical attendance procured
Immediately after the accident, and the citizens
promptly aided in bringing the wounded men to
their quarters in this place. We glad to learn
that they all getting as we'll as could be ex-
pected.
The bridge frame, understand, is perfect
wreck. Many of the timbers were broken in the
fall, and all thrown pell nell into the water
This unfortunate occurrence we presume, will oc-
casion delay of month or more in the completion
of the Road west of the river.

Senator Wilson elected by the X. N. Legisla-
ture of Massachusetts, Legislature, be it remem-
bered, of which every member except one or two
were X. Ms. Southern Wing Know Nothing papers
swore he abolitionist; but Wilson himself
said they did not tell the truth. Then they swore
the X. Ms. didn't elect him but finding that there
were others to vote for him. they now swear he
is not K. N. Surely they have got into such
habit of swearing that they CAN'T help it. But what
liberal set of men the K. N. members of the Mas
sachusetts Legislature must have been to overlook
all their order and take outsider! 1t must
have been because he bigger abolitionist

feed all their own members to get real, true-blue

GENTLEMEN:-Mr. w. d. Cooke in your last num-
Der, in an address ITO the Public once more" as
he was forced to do, has given up the main points at
issue between and proves to the attentive reader
by his shallow attempts to mystify and explain them
away, that all the facts have heretofore stated are
true to the letter. but to cover his retreat from mr.,
attempt to deceive the public and palm off his paper
as the officially endorsed organ of the State Agricul
tura Society, and to crcumvent the friends and sup
porters OF the Arator, he pours out nearly column
OF undIiuted personal venom which, for unfounded
scurrlty and abuse stripped of its affected air of
dlgnity,) can only find its parallel in the annals of
Bilingsgate, and which cannot fail to reco upon
himself in this community, where the humble Wri-
ter of this has been we'll known from the DAYS of his
boyhood, whatever may be its effect upon his distant
readers for whom, like his spurious endorsement it
must have been intended Mr.. Cooke knows and
the public know, that every disparaging idea con-
Veyed and intended to be conveyed by it, is untrue
every word of it. But there are a few of his decla.
raons and false issues, which require particular
tce, which shall defer until your next issue, in
consequence of being engaged in more important
business ut present And, since long articles fatigue
MIN, just as strong medicine affects already pros
trated patient shall not only be short now, but
shall hereafter administer to him in broken doses
There are some matters which his conduct has elicit
ed, IN which the whole State is deeply interested

that ne Snail hear from these; and painful as
1t may be- he may rest assured the public shall know
something of the manner in which he has used the
liberties allowed him.
shall not follow his example by STOPPING to per-
sonal abuse-I leare that to 6Lackgua1dsNbut if,
under the power of truth, he finds his seat uneasy
though upon bed of roses, he can blame no one
but himself. Very respectfully, &C.,

STATE FAIR.

We have the pleasure of publishing to-day the
premium list of the third annual State Fair, to be
held in this City October l6 II, 1s, and IS, 1856.
We learn, from the Arator, that the Hon. Thorn

Society," has consented deliver the annual address

We have high satsfactionin being authorised to
announce that the Hon. THOMAS RUFFIN has
sented to deliver the Annual Address before the
State Agricultural Society, at the next Fair. This
of itself, will draw thousands of the plain farmers
and mechanics, and all classes of our citizens from
every part of the State. member of the Commit
tee, in communicating to US, for publication, the
subjoned letter of Judge Ruf1n, consenting to de-
liver the address, makes the following just and APP
propriate remarks, which, tho not intended for pub

81 take much pleasure in enclosing to you copy
OF letter received from Judge Ruftin, in answer
to one addressed to him by the Committee appoint
ed to invite a speaker for the next annual meeting
of the n. @. State Agricultural Socty. The Judge
you will perceive has consented to deliver the
next annual address. We have, think, much cause
for exultation in having obtained the services in
this respect, of this most competent and estmable
gentleman Being disconnected, almost if not
trey, from politics. with deserved national reputa-
ton for eminent talents and all else that add
dignity responsibility to man, his name is tower

ALAMANcE, March 22nd, 1856.
GENTLEMEN: I received in due time your letter
assigning to me the duty of delivering the add ress
at annual meeting ofthe Agricultural Society
had hoped and thought to be free from such tasks
for the short remnant Of my days, as ought to be-
For at time of my life had 1 much turn for such
things, and have less now, being nearly without
ambition, with feeble and cracked voice, and
mind of less vivacity and vigour than formerly. Un
der those circumstances, your letter really embar-
raised me so as to prevent prompt reply. To tell
the plain truth, kept it by me in hope could
mon resolution to say, No. feel incompetent to
rouse our people to eXeron, to guide their efforts
But as you seem to think may do some good and
greatly desire to promote the welfare of Agriculture
and the honor and usefulness of the Society, l do
not find it in my heart to deny your application, but
have concluded to make at least an attempt to ad-
dress my brother demonstrating, indeed that you
will regret your mistake in making the selection,
and begging, in advance, all proper allowance for
imperfect performance
am, Gentlemen with great esteem, your friend
and obedient servant.
