The United States is now the principal
eranarv from which the food deficiencies
of Europe are annually received. During
the first half of last year we contributed
ifty-eight and a half per cent of the total
amount of wheat imported into Great
Britain. and the prospect now is, in view
of the Successive bad harvests abroad, the
United States will export q larger per cent
of cereals 10 Great Britain and the Cont

REV. W. III. MILLBURN will deliver
two lectures in this city about the first
of March, the precise days not having
been as yet announced. Due notice
will be given, however.
We are glad that such an intellectual
entertainment will be afforded our
people, who have scarcely had a lee
turer of so much fame:in their midst
since SAKE, Shillaber, Park Benjamin
and others were here, before the war,
under the auspices of literary club
then well organized. He is truly elo-
quent man. His reputation is not con-
fined to this country, but in England,
where he has spent much of his time,
he has made great reputation. The
London Times says of him: He is
indeed brilliant and most powerful
orator"
The London Athenaum says: "In
the. catalogue of Blind Men Flo
quent," at the head of which stands
John Milton, a distinguished place
must be assigned to the Rev. W. H.
Millburn."
In the United States the leading ora
tors and journals testify that he is a
man of genius and SURPRISING elo-
quence. When he comes among us let
everybody turn out and give him a
larger house than if minstrel COM
pany were to perform.

On Tuesday last, in company with
Revs. w. Burr and Il. K. Brown and
s. A. Caldwell, Esq, we were present
at the residence of our efficient and
popular County Court Clerk, Peter
Oneal, to partake of his sixty-third
birthday dinner. About FIVE o'clock
we were ushered into the dining room,
where we found Misses Lizzie Riggs,
Matte Neblett, Aggie and Sarah
Oneal, and Mr.. Gordon Outlaw. The
table, which had been prepared under
the supervision of the young ladies,
was we'll supplied with both substan-
tials aud delicacies, and the company,
each and all, did justice to the repast.
Uncle Peter was born in about two
miles of the Public Square, and has
ever since resided in the county, of
which he is one of our most useful and
honored citizens. May he live to enjoy
many more such birth day dinners.

AcCIDENT.-Not having learned the
serious nature of the accident which
happened to Mr.. G. w. Armstrong on
the 9th inst, resulting from a saw cut,
until the very sad accident of similar
character to Mr.. George Tompkins, we
now give the particulars as reported to
US by Mr.. T. H. Hyman who was
present, and gave such aid as he could
in dressing the wound. Prof. Legare,
T. H. Hyman, DIR. Larkin, and Mr..
Mailer, of this city, went on board of
the Silver Spring to point near Sail
or's Rest to spend the day in duck
hunting. When preparing to return,
Mr.. Armstrong, the engineer of the
boat, noticed the irregular running of
the wood-saw, and attempting to regu-
late it, while in motion, was struck on
the left hand, severing it nearly
through the center from the back, the
saw making not one only, but three
cuts quite through the third and fourth
bones, dividing them as we'll as the
palmer arch, from which Mr.. Arm
strong would have bled to death but
for the presence and prompt action of
DIR. Larkin, who, without instruments
arrested the hemorrhage We learn
that Mr.. Armstrong is doing well.

Mr.. ATKINS, the Railroad tax col

sonal property on the 10Th inst, in all
cases where the tax has not been paid,
and soon thereafter Mr.. II. ID. Nose

will do the same thing. These gentle
men earnestly desire that everybody
will come forward and settle and there
by save them from the annoyance and
very disagreeable duty of levying on
property. The county needs the money
10 meet her pressing demands, and if
the taxpayers will come up and pay
promptly it will not be long before
county warrants will be at par. Prompt
payment will also save additional costs.
