month are not yet complete but an approximate
estimate for December can be made, which will
not differ materially from the true result, and

700 tons rails which have put into the track
during the past ten months. have arranged fer
the purchase of 400 tons more, and all the means
of the road available for that purpose should con-

have been informed that the parties in New
York who hold the title to the Ferry-boat Wac
camaw," are arranging to remove her from the
river IN consequence O. the non-payment of the
balance still due upon the purchase. In view of
this contingency, would strongly recommend
that immediate steps be taken in con- junction
with the Wilmington Weldon Railroad Com
pany, to secure connection with tho bridge
which is now nearly completed across the Cape
Fear river. This will require the construction Of
about two miles Of track. but it seems to be ne
cessity for the future prosperity Of the road and
should be dOne without further delay. The Boat
is old and will be soon needing expensive repairs
and would probably be thro aside in any event
after the bridge shall have come into use
[ have received notification from Mr.. Jas. Z.
Tyson, OF Baltimore, that he holds the title to
certain rolling stock upon the road as surety for
the payment of al amount-S84 1877 86-Which he
demands to be paid by LIST February next ensu-
ing and in default thereof, proposes to take pos
session of the property upon which he holds the
lien aforesaid 1t is presumed that this proceed
ing cal be stayed by an agreement to pay inter
est upon the claim rent upon the rolling stock.
There are also claims held by other parties
against other rolling stock and machinery to the
amount OF about $50, COO 90, which may be at any

Upton county living about four and half
miles from the county town, was killed by

Captain Smith, who was one of a sheriff

him. In 1866 Smith was killed by DIR. Mar

turned from the Confederate army, having

DEATH WHooP ON THE PLAISs.-Lieutenants Mason and Carter, writing from Fort Hayes, Kansas, May 10, give an account of the killing of some Indians who were confined at that point. The chiefs were ordered to remove, in charge of a guard, from the corral to the guard room, when they gathered in their tents, began the death whoop, and taking out their knives, went for the soldiers. Cardegon attacked the sergeant of the guard and was knocked senseless by a blow from the butt of amusket. Sallie, aferocious squaw, welding a knife, tried to sheath it in the body of an officer, when one of the guard shot her dead. Big Head looked with scorn on the circle of bayonets surrounding him and stabbed Ser geant Hazen, dangerously wounding him in the back. One of the guard shot him dead. Dull Knife tried to stab everybody near him. and he was severely prieked by bayonets. He and the senseless Cardegon were then dis armed and placed in the guard house.

Perilous Coniuring.

Robert Houdin used to say if the public knew what passes through the mind of a conuror when he sees the barrel of a pistol turned toward him in the course of "firearm trick they would perhaps give him credit for as much nerve md courage as the bravest soldier shows in battle. An omission in some trifing point, the breaking off of B small part of the false ramrod or the real bullet as it is being withdrawn, may make the discharge fatal. Often, too, the trick is new one, and some riisca!culation may make the plan fhilurs where failure may mean death.
 A circumstance in Houdin's life shows how daringly the eeniurors who amuss us will often play with danger, depending on their ready fingers to secure their safety. He had per formed some startling tirearm tricks before party of fArabians, making use, of course, of the ordinary form of conjuring pistol, which is so contrived that the ramrod withdravs the bullet. While the rest of the party were ex- pressing their admiration, a crafty old Marabout, who had some suspicion of the true nature of the trick, said "The stranger is doubtless a strUng magician; will he suffer me to fire at him with my own pistols 2" "Yes said Houdin, .unhesitatingly but first must make invocation to those who assist me.n The next day he met the same party, and offered saucerful of bullets to the n- spection of the Marabout. Satisfied that they were lead--as indeed they were-the Arab handed his pistols to Houdin, who loaded them, using the Arabs ramrod. His own friends were in terror, and even his wife, we'll as she knew his skill, was in perplexity when she saw him hand back to the Arab one of the loaded pistols. "Now, fire he said. The Arab did so, and Houdin was seen with the bullet between his teeth. Bah, he said, seizing the other pistol, "you cannot use your own weapons See here. You have been unable to draw blood from my flesh, and I will draw blood from wonder wall" He aimed at the wall, fired, and immediately strain of blood was seen. The Marabout went up to the wall, and when he had dipped hisfngeS into the blood, which was trickling down, his awe and amazement were so great that his features assumed ghastlv hue Yet the trick was simple enough, two prepar- cd bullets having been skillfully substituted by Houdin for the leaden bullets he took up from the saucer. But the experiment was quite new, and Houdin tells us that he trem- bled, and could scarcely control his terror, as he saw the Msrsbout drawing the trigger of the pistol.
