NARROW EsCAPE.-On Tuesday evening
last, while Mr.. G. C. Burton was passing along the
plank road, on his way to his residence in Henri
co, his horse slipped and threw Mr. to the ground
As soon as the animal recovered his feet, of Mr.
BIS feet having hung in the stirrup he dashed off at
a furious rate, dragging his rider after him some
distance, bruising him badly. When we heard
from Mr.. Burton, yesterday, he was suffering very
much from sprained ankle and variety of bruises,
none OF which. however, we are gratited to learn,
are likely TO prove permanent injuries The great
wonder is, that he was not dashed to pieces while
in his perilous position.

EXCURSION oTHE BLACK HEATH Prs
Accepting the polite invitation OF Messrs Tompkins
& Walker, the new lessees ofthe Black Heath Pits,
number of ladies and gentlemen visited those pits
yesterday. They were politely received and very
hospitality treated by Mr.. Job Atkins, the mining
agent Of the pts. Mr.. A. accompanied the party
"down below to the bottom of the Mander Pits 1890
feet deep. The ladies were delighted at being go
far beneath the earth's surface for once in their
lives-and their composure in scene SO dismal,
was admirable. Their presence in such place,
gave US the most vivid idea the contrast of "ebo
ny and TOPAZ " We saw how the bright face of
woman could illumine the darkest abode of man!
The visitors took much interest in the operations
Of the mines. We saw some forty hands at work,
all appearing to be in fine spirits The pits are said
TO be as free from gas and in little danger from
explosions as any in Virginia Mr.. Atkins is an &C.
complished miner. He was long engaged in the
Old ack Heath Pits, worked by the late Captain
Harry Heth. The new shaft will be able to supply
all the customers of the old. The mines have fall
len into the hands of enter pricing gentlemen who
aided by such men as John Farrar, Salesman and
job Atkins, Miner, must succeed.
tits expected that Ii cars, or $500 bushels per
day, will be raised Making average yield
of $4,000 bushels per annum by these pits
The company returned home in the afternoon
much delighted with their excursion and their visit
to the 'lower regions"
