A Man COVERED Up IN A WELL Forty
FEET DEEP-HE Cuts HIS THROAT TWICE,
AND Is RESCUED ALIvE.-A frightiul acct
dent occurred in Hanover on Friday last.
A farmer employed laboring man to clean
out well for him. The well was forty
feet deep, and it was successfully cleaned,
but the well caved in, covering up the I'M
fortunate man. The neighbors were sum-
moned, and at once set to work to dig him
out. After laboring for several hours, the
body OF the sufferer was reached and taken
out imam insensible state. Upon examina-
ton it was found that he had cut his throat
in two places with pockct-kniic. 1t is
thought that the victim of this frightful ac-
cident feared he would not be rescued, and
cut his throat to put himself out of his
misery. At last accounts the man was
still alive, although fatal results were
feared. Our informant did not learn his
name.-Jochcson (Jfo.) citizen.

The National Convention-The Meeting
TO-DAY.


The meeting in the Senate Chamber Of
the Capitol in this city Of the Executive
Committees of the three great parties OF
the Presidential canvass of 1860 will take
place at II o'clock to-day. A punctual at
tendance Of all who have it in their power
to be present is earnestly desired. The
question to be considered is of very great
importance. The meeting of delegates
from all the States in Philadclphia-the
first occasion of such an asscmblage since
the war-justities the hope that something
may be done to terminate the sectional
and fanatical agitations Of Washington
which now vex the land and obstruct the
national peace and prosperity. The South
ought to be represented there by all means.
There she may be heard-there she may
find voice for the first time since the war.
Something may be accomplished; but if
there is nothing achieved beyond the moral
influence upon the whole nation that such
meeting of representatives of the entire
people of the republic must exert, that is
quite enough to justify the convocation-
quite enough to compensate for all the
trouble and Inconvenience of holding it..
We have already published lists Of the
three committees; but as the BREcKINRIDGE
and LANE committee was imperfect, we
now repeat it. The committee as ap-
pointed by the Charlottesville Convention
held in August, 1860, is as follows:

VIRGINIA AND KENTUCKY RAILROAD
a very large meeting of the stockholders
OF the Virginia and Kentucky railroad
was held in Bristol on Thursday last, at
which much enthusiasm prevailed, and Il
fixed determination to push the road for
ward to early completion was manifested
by all present.
General Edmund Kirby Smith was elect
ed president of the road, and General
Peter johnson, Of Lee county, and Mr..
- Kean, of Scott, directors on the part
Of the stockholders.
The road will have its eastern terminus
at Bristol, and its western at Cumberland
Gap, being one hundred miles in length.
At Cumberland Gap it will meet a road
from Lexington, Ky, and will thus give
the great valleys of the Ohio and Missis-
sippi route to the seaboard at Norfolk
shorter by forty miles than any other
