SAD A~ccIDENr.-On Thursday last, the
Goth instant, Mr.. j. p. Cole, now of Moore,
but formerly of this county, lost his life
in the following manner: He and Messrs.
lack Sivelly, Pink Holmes, and Capt. c.
II. Bean, (late Representative of Frank
lin county, before the f~rSction to make
Moore county was dstached,> were going
across Elk river en- route to Vanzant's
mill. The river was very much swollen,
and the canoe they were in capsized by
striking a snag. The paddles We're lost,
and each man had to look out for his own
safety. They all got back to the'capsized
canoe aud Messrs. Bean and Cole stripped
themselves of clothing, saying that they
intended to swim to the bank. Mr.. Cole
plunged into the angry stream, and was
within some iftcen feet of the bank when
he sank, but rose very soon and exclaimed {:
lord, save me" He sank again, and
rose no more. At this writing his body
has not been found.
Mr.. Cole was a stout man, physically.
He was generally known by the sobriquet
of pink" Tie wal formerly a magistrate
in this county, in the Marble Hill district.
He wa about so years of age, ard had
many warm friends. 1t must be that he
was seized with cramping, and was thus
rendered impotent 10 save tho lite he I'M
wisely trusted to the dubious mercy of
angry water.

He rs DEXD.-We have heretofore men
toned that Robert Turner was mashed
while attempting, by orders, to couple two
cars on the Nashville Il Chattanooga rail
road. The circumstances of that matter it
is not necessary for us to here rcitcrate'
Suffice it TO say that on Thursday night
last, about 8 o'clock, Robinson jackson
Turner, Jr., breathed his last breath on
this earth. He was q young man full OF
promise. He displayelhis energy and III
dustry by going to labor in a position
where labor and perseverance are requi-
site and was faithfully fulfilling the duties
OF his position when an inadyertancc upon
the part of the rail road employee caused
his death. His great physical strength
alone prevented in our opinion, his instant
death. But the crush was too great, and
so, ut last, after much suffering, he gave
up the ghost, peacefully and calmly as the
best christian on earth could have done.
We have no more to add, except to say
that Robinson j. Turner was born the oath
of August, 1852, and died the Goth of Feb
ruary 1873. He leaves a large circle Of
relatives and friends to regret his I'M
timely loss. Peace to his remainsl

lS In all the new streets of Pari? the
buildings at the corners are rounded, or
the angle cut of, so that the sidewalks
are curved, thus facilitating locomotion
and avoiding the many accidents caused
by turning around sharp angles. In Win
chester the man who laid out" the town
came very near doing the same thing. but
not by reconciliation or malice ato?e-
thought. 1t is said by some that he was
''half-seas-oyer,' and consequently vecred
his needle wrong. Thus it came that our
square in Winchester is not a square.
and our streets don't III at perfect right
angles by several degrees. Make a note
ofthis, temperance advocates.

Gs5- High is suggested as II name Tor the
street, In Winchester, running from the
railroad at Mr.. Walmsley's to DR., MUIR
rell's residence. We second the sugges-
ton, and would like to know of our read
ers show they think 1t will do for high
1t is conceded to be the prettiest street in
our town, and it certainly Is the highest,
but we would not destroy the beauty OF
brevity by calling it Pretty High street.
Wen just call it High, and let it 90.
En- PEASANT, if some one else will suggest
to us appropriate cognomens for our
namcless streets and avenues. We will pub
lish the same, in the hope that thus we
may be able to accomplish something that
we have long tried to accomplish, and
which was Il matter demanding the atten-
ton Of our Board. Surely some of our
streets are old enough to be named, and
we hereby call the attention, this tiftieth
time, ofour City Fathers to the matter.
Nor ENTIRELY STAGNANT.-Winches-

THE GRAIM-INSPECTI0N.

Tho graill-inspectiou III Chicago las received
somo new light III the prosecutions instituted by
Inspector Harper against various peraons, who,
at the request Of the owners Of grain, have CIV
ell certificates as to it's quality and grade. Tho
first Of these prosecutions WIS before JuRtico
D'Wolf on Tuesday, and tlno Of $50 MAS i'm
poHod. It is to ho hoped, for tho credit Of tue
the kind and that shippers aud owners may yet
bo allowed ordinary liberty with their own prop.
crty.

provides in Soc. 20 as follows:
Any person who shall ass,llno act ~ Inspector

The intent and purpose OF this act ID clcar
upon itB face. 1horo had boeu nyRsom Of in
upcction In Chicago under which ull grain mas
inspected by peraous appointed by tho hoard Of
