A Rerious Accident.

A Mr.. Redden, living about two miles north
met with an accident of very serious and al
most fatal nature on the 18th inst. He was cut
ting down large white oak tree, which, falling
quite suddenly, struck him upon the head as he
ground and, falling across his thighs smashed
one of them up horribly, and severely bruised
the other He lay under the tree some time,
and was rescued by man and some women
who were near. Medical assistance was called
in and the broken bones were set but the man
is suffering very much, and it is considered very
doubtful whether he will recover. That seems
an unfortunate place, for within the last month
it has been the scene of two very narrow escapes
from immediate death. Polk.

This old and we'll known citizen died at his
residence in the 18th civil district of this coun-
ty on Monday evening, at the advanced age of
73 years. He has been confined to his room for
several months by various painful Affections,
rendered doubly so TO him by reason of long
life of unceasing, unbroken activity. We have
known the deceased for years. In early life We
were intimately associated with him. Many
lessons of wholesome instruction we have re-
ceived from his lips. He was no ordinary man.
He possessed mind of uncommon vigor, which
was we'll stored with useful knowledge.
Much of his life was spent in the business of
instruction, and large numbers of men and
women all over this country remember with
pleasure their association with him in the rela-
tons Of teacher and pupil
1t is with unfeigned sorrow that we announce
the death of Jesse f. Bunker. lie was a man of
noble and generous impuses-not free from
faults, but possessed Of high virtues. He was n
fluent writer and speaker, having few superiors
and still fewer equals, when in the enjoyment of
the full vigor of manhood. Many a foeman
who has seen fit to measure lancets with him has
felt the weight of his intellect, and recoied be-
fore the superior ability brought TO bear in IA
vor of a favorite position. He leaves many
friends TO mourn his loss. His remains will be
inferred at New Salem Church at 10 oclock
to-day.

Little MINI.

The dispatches of yesterday brought the sad
intelligence of the death of Nina Craigmiles,
the only child of John II. and Adeia Craig
miles, of Cleveland. Nina was seven years old;
beautiful in features, winning in manners and
brilliant in mind the idol of happy home,
the petted grandchild of noble old man. How
face rudy with health as she tripped so gay and
bright TO school How beautiful she looked as
she murmured SO sweetly, good morning. or
evening, and passed on to give learning 60 the
though SO young, singing some little childish
songs, which'the care of u doting mother taught
her, and how well she sang. Poor little Nina
/ shall see her no more The bud never bloomed
on earth, but has been taken to adorn a heaven
ly casket. Oh, how wretched the parents must
feel-whose hearth is desolate, whose idol is
broken They, however, can find solace in the
delightful hope of the beautiful promises of
God, that parent and child may meet on the
green banks in the New Jerusalem, where part
ing ceases and the reunion is eternal. n.

lady Of questionable character, who had as
sumed the rights Of a squatter sovereign with
respect to some land belonging TO Mr.. Peter

The prosperity of place is always indicated
by the general appearance af its newspaper
For example, the South Carolina papers are
small and look shriveled up and weakly. The
Western North Carolina papers look as if they
had been printed hundred years ago. Several
of the East Tennessee country papers look very
conservative and as If they had ploughed along
in same furrow for a very long time. The At

We learn that Hon. Ed. r. Pennebaker, the
efficient Comptroller at Nashville, says that
there is less sickness in the Knoxville JAIL as the
bills of costs brought before him show, than al
most any Jail in the State. 1t costs the State less
ito pay physicians bills at the Knoxville Jail, in
proportion to the average number of prisoners,
than in any city in the State. For the past two
years we have had occasional spasmodic grum-
bling about our Jail, account of its effect upon
the health of inmates. We have failed TO see
any statistics upon which to ground such NUT
