SEVERELY INJURED.-A man named
Patrick Roach met with a severe acct
dent last Saturday evening at the Rich
mond works. He was engaged in
chopping wood when a splinter flew
upward and entered the lett eye, in
llicting a painful wound, and came
very near destroying the sight of the
visionary organ. The splinter cut
through the corner, causing the aque-
Gus humor to discharge through the
curtain of the iris. DR.. a. c. Bishop
was called to dress the wound, and suc
ceeded in contracting the pupil by ply
saStigtna. The physician has strong
hopes of of saving the eye and restor-
ing sight in iull TO it.

III the North Carolina Constitutional
Convention, ordinances have passed their
third and final reading reducing the number
of Superior Court Judges from twelve to
nine; changing the time of the convening of
the Legislature to Wednesday after the first
Monday in January each year; empowering
the Legislature to establish intermediate
courts, or courts inferior to the Superior
Courts
The Rev. Mr.. Spake introduced an ordi-
nance disqualifying persons of certain rellg-
ious beliefs from holding office. Ordinances
have also been introduced exempting from
taxation for a term of years manufacturing
establishments employed in manufacturing
articles from home productions; and to re-
strain any Legislature from levying taxes or
making any arrangement to settle the public
debt unless the creditors of the State will
agree to certain compromise, say % cents
on the dollar.
The ordinance to remove the disabilities of
ex. Governor Holden, who was impeached in
1871, was refused by vote Of So to 56, on
the ground, by those voting negatively, that
the oath of the members Of the convention,
prescribed by the Legislature, restricted them
from legislative action. An ordinance will,
however, be passed giving the Legislature
general pardoning powers.
