Nor Deadly singular circumstance
the name of Mr.. Daughtery, the efficient
conductor of the Se&board and Roanoke
Railroad, was enrolled among the dead at
Portsmouth on Sunday. 1t appears that Mr..
d. had obligingly written out list of the
dead for the information of the press, to
which he signed his name. In taking copies
of this list, the name of Mr.. D. was placed
30 completely in line with the roll of the
dead that it was regarded by the compositor
as one Of them, and thus he was sent out of
the world before his time, of fever he never
bad. He is not only not dead, but is actively
engaged 10 his Office, which he discharges to
the satisfaction of everybody.
