Frederick County.

Chief Engineer Blythe and Cassius Zee, Esq,
directors of the c. & O. R. R., accompanied
by two New Workers, who are interested in the
road, visited Winchester last week. All OF
them express the belief that the road will soon
be put under contract to Winchester.
1t is believed that the route through town
has been decided upon.
Mr. John Robins, of Winchester, was thrown
from a buggy while driving on the Millwocd
road on Monday last, and severely injured
His collar bone and left arm were broken.
AccDENr.-On Tuesday afternoon, last
week Mr.. John Case, carpenter in the en-
ployment of the b. & 0. r. R. Co., fell from
the abutment Of the new bridge, now in pro-
cess of erection at Shawnee Springs, iniuring
himself quite severely. As the fall was thirty
feet, it was feared that Mr.. Chase's injuries
were internal and would result fatally.
FIRE.-Ou Tuesday night of last week, the
stables Of Mr.. Kemp Of Winchester were burn
Cd Mr. Komps loss, including stage harness,
corn, lay, &c, amounts to about $4,000. All
the horses and vehicles were saved. The prop
crty was insured for $1,000. The origin Of
the fire is not certainly known.
ArroNTNEyr.-Judge Sherrard has ap-
pointed Mr.. VIM L. Bent, Master Commits
sioucr to fill the vacancy created by the death
of Mr. Carson. The appointment is a most
excellent one.

PAINFUL Accommodations . o'clock on
last Saturday evening, Mr.. Robert Perry of
this town, met with very painful accident
while engaged at work in one of the machine
shops of tho B. & 0. R. R. Company. Attic
time Of the accident lie was assist
ing in shaping a piece of iron, when chip
from the face Of the hammer in the hands Of
his fcllow-workman struck the ball of his left
eye, entirely destroying the sight for the time
being, and it is feared that the nature of the
wound is such that he will not recover it.
A CHANGE.-The old system of renting the
pews will be abolished in the Episcopal church
in this town, on and after the LIST Sabbath in
next month. The pews will be free to every
one, aud a cordial Invitation is extended to all
TO attend divine service in that church.
Several gentlemen from Pennsylvania, have
been, during the past week prospecting for
the purchase Of lartas in this county, one or
two have made purchases, and others will soon
follow-MHtnsburg Statesman.

Blown UP.-An ugly accident occurred
at tie new Backyard in this town on Sat
urda,. morning last. Mr.. TOBIAS Rollins
was engaged in sinking well in the yard, as
sisted by THORNTON JONES, a colored man
Friday evening they put in blast, which
from some cause failed to ignite; Mr.. Rollins
went down, brushed the fire from around it,
and saturated it, as he thought, with water
The next morning both men descended, and
commenced drilling the old blast out. The re-
suit may be in,agiucd-the heat of the drill
iguitcd the powder, and an explosion followed,
which came very near proving fatal to the
workmcu, both Of whom were severely burned
and cut about Che face and body, though we
are glad to learn that neither are likely tosas-
tain serious or permanent injuy.-Leesb,lrg
