CARTHAGE, N. c., April 81, 1853
Dear Sirs We had quite a snow storm here on
yesterday. Shortly after o'clock in the morning
it commenced showing and continued briskly until
nearly o'clock in the afternoon. 1t fell in very
large fakes and covered the roofs of houses, and
the ground in places from one to two inches deep.
1t had not entirely disappeared at o'clock this
morning; but it appears not to have seriously in
jured anything 1t was feared that the wheat crop
would suffer from the effects of the snow and frost
l doubt, however, whether any serious damage HIS
been done to it.
learn from gentlemen from Randolph, that there
not much snow in that section; but it was fear
ed that the wheat which is represented as being
unusually fine, would be injured by the cold and
frost.
learn from gentleman from Montgomery. that
a dreadful tragedy occurred near Pekin, in that
county, on Saturday last A negro boy belonging
to John Chapel returned home to his masters
house. within mile of Pekin, from visit to his
wife, who was owned in the neighborhood. He had
exhibited signs of insanity before leaving the place
where his wife stayed and after reaching his mas.
ters house he acted strangely. His master, suppos
ing that medical aid might be of benefit to him,
after DR.. j. Ewing, who lives in that neghborhood;
but the Doctor absent at the time, aud did not
visit Chappes until about o'clock in the afternoon
When the Doctor approached Chappel's house he
met young man who told him that the negro man
Lloyd, whom he had been sent to see, was endeav-
oring with axe to kill every person about the
place: That ne was drawn to the place by the cries
of the family that he approached the house to
rescue the sufferers the negro Lloyd made at him
with an axe; and he compelled to retreat to
save his own life, as he was unarmed. Dr. Ewing
prevailed on him to return with him to Chappels
house. On reaching the house. they found John
Chapel lying nearly dead in his yard. his wife lying
near him dead with her skull SO badly broken that
brains were running out, and two of Chappels chill
dren so badly injured that their lives are despared
Of Lloyd at the time was in pursuit of some Of the
children who were trying to make their escape
They succeeded in carrying Chapel into the
house. and the Doctor examining his wounds,
when the negro Lloyd returned and came towards
the house with an in his hands, and threatening
to kill Dr. Ewing The Doctor took up a loaded
gun and requested him not to come nearer. The
negro, however, rushed on and the Doctor discharg
ed the gun at him, lodging its contents in his body
killing him almost instantly. John Chapel died on
Sunday morning. 1t is believed the negro had fit

The Kansas Bill Passed.

The Kansas bill with the Lecompton Constitution,
has passed both houses Of Congress; and the State
St BE- admitted whenever the people thereof at the
ballot box, shall signify their acceptance of the
ordnance rendered them by Congress- The recon-
neudation of the Committee of Conference of the
two houses has, in other words been adopted, by
vote Of 81 % in the Senate and 112 TO 1O3 in the
House. Mr. Biggs, of this State, voted for the bill
Mr. Reid absent; and Messrs. Branch, Clingman,
Craige, Gilmer, Rufin, Scales, Shaw, and Winslow
voted for it. The Black Republicans and the Doug
las men in the two houses voted against the bill.
The grants of lands to the new State, made in this
bill, are such as have been made to. Minnesota and
other new States, and not full as those claimed
IN the Lecompton ordinance. This is the only diff
ference presented between the question now and
heretofore, with the exception that the people are
"say at the polls whether they will come in with
Inc new ordinance rendered them by Congress, or
say out If they should reject the proposition
ney are not to be permitted to come into the Union
until they have population of $4,000.
Inc Lecompton Constitution recognises slavery.
Inc question is, aoiU the people Of Kansas cote for
aam'ss'on Nth the nep ordnance? We think the
result doubtful. If they should not, the Territory
Will De again involved in strife and perhaps civil war.
-, uu' we hope for the best. See the letter of our

FOr the Standard.
r. q, WHITAKER AND j. F. ,HUTCHINS.

MEssRs. EDITORS AS the time is rapidly ap-
preaching for the selection of suitable persons by
General Assembly, beg small space in your pa
per to say word or two in behalf of the two gen.
tlemen above named, who think deserve to be re.
membered by the Convention, and not only remem-
bered but recommended by them to the people of
the County, as suitable and proper persons to rep
resent them in the House Of Commons I have re-
ference to r. H. Whitaker and j. F. Hutchins,
Esqrs, native born citizens of the County, and De-
mocrats Of the purest stamp.
These gentlemen quite popular and favorites
in various parts of the County, and are decidedly
the choice of many, but their great modesty in
thrusting themselves upon the public, and seeking
office, is one among the many reasons why the peo
pie desire to vote for them.
Mr.. R. H. Whitaker, or Harper, as he is more
usually called by the people, is extensively known,
a young man of talents and education, and a men,
Der of one of the Oldest and strongest Democratic
families of the County-well instructed in regard to
what is the duty of politician, fluent in speech and
very effective in public speaking.
Mr.. j. F. Hutchins, or FAB, as he is Familiarity
called is young gentleman of fine mind thor
oughly educated, having graduated with distinction
at Chapel Hill since which time he has applied
like Mr.. Whitaker, is a sprg Of the real old Demo.
cratic Hickory, which is the only kind to be relied
on, in these times of peril.
Now, Messrs Editors, do not intend to detract
from any other gentlemen that may desire to have
their names before the Convention but do most I'M
hesitatingly say, that the gentlemen whose names
head this article will 60 as far, and do as much to
serve the best interest of the people as any Others
Hence, l hope the Convention may select them as
two of their standard bearers in the approaching
campaign. But, while would gently urge their
Names hold myself in readiness to abide by
the action of the Convention, and support the NOM
inees, whoever they may be, to the utmost of my
ability; which has uniformly been the case in the

SENTENcED.-The case Of John Gregory, the trial
of which referred to in last issue, was de-
cided last Thursday evening about o'clock the
of Guilty" and the Judge sentenced him to be
hung on Friday the 21st of May. The case will be
taken before the Supreme Court, and if not acquit.
ted there, land there is not the shadow of hope
that he will be,) that tribunal will appoint another
day for his execution.
During Gregory's whole trial noticed him
closely, and could detect not single trace Of fear
anxiety or hope in him; his, demeanor was that Of
perfect Indifference; and even when the Judge was
pronouncing his sentence, he appeared as calm and
unmoved if he was listening to q religious ser
and put in irons did he seem to realize his real posi-
ton. We are told that when the jailor put the iron
collar around his neck he wept bitterly, for the FIRST
time, since his arrest Haayas Reps
