SEVERE FRosr.--We have had very severe
frosts in this section lately, extending so far as
we can learn, over the entire county and inhict-
ing considerable injury on tender vegetables
and the fruit crop. Some localities have suf-
fered worse than others, ard so with the differ
ent kinds of fruit. Plums, cherries, pears and
grapes were injured the most. Still, we will
probably have enough for home consumption.
Apples and peaches will be plenty. 1t froze sew
eral consecutive nights, beginning with Friday
night of last week. Sunday night following was
the most destructive May frost experienced in
this basin for four years, and was the one that
damaged us.

cause of his insanity, which was manifested by
boisterous and foolish conduct, night and day.
Among other things, it was proven that he
danced for several hours around a large pine
tree, Sunday night, whooping and yelling all
the while, and busted himself during the day
time, since then, carrying little bits of wood
twgs and leaves into his cabin and casting them
into the fire, one at time. He would go in

twenty minutes. Leese went below Thursday

HORSE TAMING.-Mr. j. J. Biggs, of Humboldt,
visited our town last Thursday to give lessons
in horse tanning. To show what he could do,
he drove up and down Main street, in buggy,
without reius or bride, with whip only, a
horse he had owned but two days and which
was well-known to be skittish and high-strung.
The exhibition was satisfactory and convincing
to all acquainted with the animal, and number
presented themselves for instructions, which
were given for the moderate sum of five dollars
a piece. Mr.. Biggs processes to be able to tame
any wild or unruly creature of the horse kind in
an hour or cure them effectually of vicious hab-
its. Those he instructed tell US that he misrep-
resented nothing, and we cannot disbelieve it..
Mr.. Biggs goes from here through Siskiyou to
Oregon, and we recommend him to the favora-
bic notice of our northern contemporaries.

DISTRESSING ACCIDENT.-A shocking occur
renee happened on Canyon creek last Tuesday
forenoon. uncle Jake" Killinger and W. W
Allen were at work in the Garwood claim, under
large rock which projected five or six feet from
the bank. The stone suddenly came down
Allen escaped by miracle, but " Uncle Jake
was caught by the falling bowlder, which weighed
several tons, and was instantly killed and horri-
bly, crushed. Kilinger fell on his right side
and was struck just above the hip, the stone
rolling over him from his hip to his chin. The
flesh was scraped off to the bone on the left side
of his face and neck from the under jaw to the
collar bone. Just above the collar bone he was
cut open, and the entire thoracic viscera heart,
liver, &C., were forced through the aperture.
Another opening was made in his side, through
which the lower portion of his intestines, and
one of his kidneys protruded, laying on the
ground by his side. Ribs and back bone seemed
to be crushed to a pulp. We don't remember
of anything more horrible to the Imagination
Poor Uncle Jake never knew what killed him,
for at the first he was literally " busted wide
open.h He has no relations in this county that
we know of. DR.. Montague was sent for and
went the same day to replace the viscera, sew up
the wounds and arrange the body for interment.

NOTICE.

COLUMBIA, S. c., January, 1870.
The Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta
Railroad Company having been formed
by the consolidation of the Charlotte and
South Carolina and the Columbia and
Augusta Railroad, and having executed
first and only mortgage on it's entire
property of 1876 miles. including equip
ment, is now redeeming all the bonds
formerly issued by said two companies
by an exchange of its first mortgage
bonds. These bonds bear seven per
cent. interest, payable in January and
July, and are amply secured by mort
gage on property which cost per mile
more than three times the amount of
bonds so issued.
The present price of the stock and the
business of the road give ample guaran-
tee of the security of the obligations for
a permanent investment. Indeed the
opinion is freely expressed, that there is
no safer bonds issued by any party or
corporation in the State, and they are
cheerfully commended to capitalists as n
safe investment.
For the purpose of funding the floating
debt of the Company, $50. 1000 of these
bonds are offered for sale t. the public.
