Cbanter of Accidents.

A correspondent from Waynesboro writes us
during the past few days, that very serious cas-
ualtes have occurred ia that community.
A son of Spotswood Harrington, fell from a
Hickory tree into which he had climbed 10
Gather its fruit, distance perhaps OF ~ feet:-
He came down head foremost, throwing out Ms
hands to protect himself, the whole force OF the
fan was received upon the arms, the right
wrist was crushed, the bone protruding through
the flesh. entered the ground from one to two
inohes: the other wrist was broken or Dadly
dislocated. The face of the little sufferer, (for
he was under p years old,) was much bruised,
and the conclusion being of course great, affect
ed him generally. Drs Waddell and King were
soon on the ground, rendering the needed as
sistance, and the boy is doing as we'll as could
be hoped for. :,
Another-Young James Bush, son of Mr.
John Bush, whilst in the act of sending up 9
bucket of stone and earth from the bottom of q
we'll. which he was digging for j. B. Smith ot
Waynesboro, was surprised somewhat, by the
return of bucket and contents on his head and
shoulders, distance of % to 80 feet, the bucket
weighing near one hundred pounds. Death was
supposed to be the consequence, but not so
Bush was terribly bruised but is getting we'll.
Another case of sosll doing which occurred
in our village some time sinOe, perishsd for want
of chronicler. 1t fell out on this wise: Mr.
L. Shaw abandoned we'll he was digging, after
obtaining depth of go feet-the mouth Of
the well was covered with loose thin plank
barely sufficient to support a man. MIR. David
Bush's horses had escaped the enclosure and
were playing in the vicinity of the we'll; two o.
them, large, able-bodied and fat fellows, leaped
together upon the plank crossing the wells
mouth, which gave way, and together they
descended to its dismal depths. Reader, you viii
say they were instantly crushed to death--not
bit of it-by the skillful management of stalwar
men, and by means of ropes and pulleys they
were brought to light and life, and marvellous
to say, very little injured.

Hon. Lucas p Thompson, one of the brightest
ornaments of the Virginia Bench, having receiv-
ed formal solicitation from the members of the
Bar in Nelson county to make known his will
ngness to continue in the Judgship, if reelected
replies 81 have never entertained any intention
of withdrawing from the public service at the
close of my present term, if it be the pleasure OF
the electors of the Circuit to continue me in Of
fee. If ever had, l frankly confess the appeal
made to my feelings by the candid and fiatteriDg
terms of the call, and of similar one previously
made by the Bar of Rockbridge, would have
been well calculated to shake that purpose. In
answer to and in Difference to the wishes of the
Rockbrdge Bar, expressed in their call, as well
as in accordance with my own inclination and
preference to continue in my present office,
announced myself candidate for reelection

A MEMORABLE DAY-The thirteenth day of
October, 1859, will ever be memorable in the
history of the Protestant Episcopal Church OF
the United States. Never before, since its Or
ganization on these shores, has there been such
large accession on any single occasion, to its
House of Bishops This day, the solemn cere-
mony of Conservation was performed in three of
the most prominent Episcopal Churches of the
city, on tour of the most eminent Divines belong
ing to the denomination. AT St. Paul's, the re-
cipients of this high and holy honor, were the
Rev VIM. Fl. Odenheimer, D. d., Bishop elect
of the Diocese of New Jersey, and the Rev. G..
Thurston Bedell, d. D., Assistant Bishop elect Of
the Diocese of Ohio. At st. James Church, the
Rev. Henry b. Whipple, D. D., Bishop elect of
the Diocese of Minnesota, was solemnly conse
Grated; and at the venerable Monumental
Church, the Rev. Alexander Gregg, Bishop elect
of the Diocese of Texas, was invested with the
religious robes peculiar to his high and holy Of
fee.

DEPARTURE OF THE "SHAoKLEFoRD" NEGROES.
On Sunday last (says the Lynchburg Repubh
cam crowd of not less than one thousand ne
groes assembled on the Basin, to take leave OF
the negroes belonging to the estate of the late
Mr.. Francis B. Shackleford, of Amherst county,
who in accordance with the will OF the deceased,
were about to depart, by way of the canal, for a
free State. The whole number set free was for
ty-four, men, women and children, but only thir-
ty-seven left, the balance preferring to remain
in servitude in Old Virginia, rather than enjoy
their freedom elsewhere Some of those who
did leave, were thrown on the boat by main
force, SO much opposed were they to leaving,
and many expressed their determination of re-
turning to Virginia as soon as an opportunity
afforded Many were the well-wishes rendered
the departing negroes by the crowd assembled,
and when the boats started from their wharves,
the freed negroes struck up "Carry me back to
OLD virginney," which was joined in by one
and all, and in tone which indicated plainly
that if left to their own free will, they would
gladly spend the remainder of their days in SER
vtude in the home of their birth. The negroes,
for several years past, have been under the
charge of Mr.. Fl. Fl. Lewis, the executor, who
superintendent their removal out of the State.

IMPORTANT FROM TRxAs-BRowNsvILLE AT
Tackled BY GUERILLAs --Advices from Browns
vile, Texas, are received, stating that that place
was attacked on the 18th utimo by band OF
guerillas, who had killed FIVE citizens, broken o.
pen the Jail, and freed all the prisoners. The
most intense excitement prevailed, and the Mex
leans sent aid from Matamoras. The guerillas
were headed by Cartinas, who shot the Sheriff
OF Brownsville last July, while he was attempt
ing to arrest him. A party of the outlaws, one
hundred strong, rode through the city on horse
back and had posted sentinels, when Gen. Cara.
vajal and others from Matamorss arrived, and
persuaded them to leave. Fort Brown was gar
risoned with Mexican troops from Matamoras,
aud the citizens had formed q patrol guard to
keep watch on the outlaws, who were encamped
near the city, two hundred strong. The Mexi-
can General had visited their camp, and obtained
a promise from them that they would not modest
the city any more. The citizens, however, still
expect another attack, as the outlaws boosted
they had more on their list to kill. An express
had been sent to San Antonio for troops.
The cause of the difficulty is said to be de-
sire on the part of Cartinas for revenge for inu-
ries which he alleges he has received.
The citizens of Brownsville had mostly fled to
Matamoras, having no faith in the promises of
the outlaws that they would not modest them
any more,
Mr.. Kinley, editor Of the Brownsville Nexas)
Herald, is now in Washington. He says the
Mexican banditti near Brownsville on the 9Th,
numbered four hundred, and were increasing
Their object is a general plumber. Fears are en-
tertained that they will burn the town, and fam
lilies are fleeing elsewhere, -.
The Austin Gazette says the Oamapches will
attack Texas in the Winter.
