DEATH or a WORTHY MAN,--We are
deeply panied to announce the death Of
Mr.. RICHARD w. RERRY, a printer, re-
Gently employed in tho UNION ofico.
His death occurred at noon yesterday,
at the residence Of w. II. Clemens, Esq
on High street, after an illness Of several
weeks, of fever. He came to this city
from Russellyille, Ky, but q short time
before he was taken sick, in the enjoy
mont OF good health, and looking with
buoysnt an~ticipations to the future. Mr.
Perry was well known in the Western,
Southwestern, and some of She Southern
States, in which he had followed his pro-
fession Of printer, sometimes giving va
riety 70 his experience by publishing
and editing. He was regarded as one
Of the fastest and most reliable compost
tors in the country-was an intelligent,
companiOnablo gentleman, upright aud
honest in all his dealings. His family
reside at Russellville, and his unexpected
death. will be a severe blow to them.
May "He who tempers the wind TO the
shorn lamb" give them consolation.

OUTSIDE THE LNE."-A good story

perhaps.
The secret of the Paymaster's fears
was exploded, and heartily laughed at,
when twas found that the line meantb by
the unmilitAry Major, was a long rope
running in rear of the officers tents,
used for tying horses to. He paid the

A FAMILY PoIsONED The family Of
Capt. James Hughes, residing on College
street, South Nashville, were poisoned
Monday evening. 1t is supposed that
arsenic was put into a portion of the
food which constituted their supper, and
Of which they had eaten. Capt. Hughes,
Mrs. Hughes, Miss Hughes, Master
Hughes, and Miss Hughes, a daughter Of
Capt David Hughes, (who was spending
the evening with her relatively aud four
negroes, were more or less affected by
the poison. The Captain, his wife and
niece are very seriously poisoned. It is
believed that the poison was put into a
mess Of batter, Of which cakes were
made, end into a dish of fried chicken;
inasmuch, as a son of Captain Hughes,
some fifteen years Of age, did not partake
Of either the cakes or chicken, and es-
capped. A little negro girl, who had
runaway, was on Monday caught by
Capt. II. and sent home. She did no,
eat any supper, although repeatedly
pressed to do so by one of the negroes
who is badly poisoned. This fac
caused her to BE- suspected, and she ID
under arrest. We learn that she denies
the charge, aud accuses the cook, who ID
herself amongst the number poisoned
though slightly. 1t is stated also thai
she cook was recently chastised, and
had made threats of revenge.
II is a sad affair. The guilty party
should be punished severely.

this POSITION OF NoRru CAROLINA.

We copy from the Eraminsr the follow
ing report of remarks in Congress on
Wednesday, on the presentation Of the
resolution, Of our Legislature denouncing
the ISLANDERS propagated against the State:
Mr.. Gather, Of North Carolina, by leave,
introduced series Of joint resolutions OF
the State of North Carolina. yindicst,ng
the loyalty OF the State and of its General
Assembly.
After the reading Of the resolutions, MIR.
Gather said the State had been greatly
misrepresented beyond the line where her
true sentiments we're known. He bad been
mortified at the question frequently asked
him, ii the State was mt in favor OF a re-
construction OF the nll Union! Those
resolutions reelected fairly the sentiments
OF all parties in the State. IL was unfor-
tunate that the State was divided into par.
ties at the present crisis, but on the great
vital principle her people were unit. and
extended cordial support to the admins.

sprang up early in the revolution, ann its
fruits had been evil. Ii was known thai
North Carolina never believed in secession
hut after her seven sister States seeded, 1
Convention was called in Februsry 1861
the vote for delegates being cast as for o
against secession. The result of the yot,
was that eighty gentlemen elected wer,
opposed TO secession and forty in its favor
On the question Of calling the Convention
a small majority Of the people decided tina
it should not be called at that period
