JOHN c. YoUNG's EIoQuENcE.
On Sunday afternoon and night theTown
Hall was crowded to do honor to the won
drous eloquence of Mr.. John G. Young.
They came from the city, the country, the
highways, byways and hedges. They came
as pedestrians, equestrians, characters, pos
tiilions, large and small, high and low, rich
and poor. All had souls TO be saved; all
had ears to hear and minds to comprehend.
And as one body they listened. Without
possessing any distinctive features as an
orator saveh his matches auency, Mr.. Young
enchains and entrances as few mere elocu-
tionists could hope to do. The rapid
ity OF his Inference does violence TO rule,
but criticism is soon swallowed up in speech
less admiration and an elevation Of spirit
that would often clamor for enthusiastic
applause, were the occasion any thing else
but religious assemblsga Let none who
can, fail TO hear him

AN ACCIDENT.
On Sunday night as Messrs. Simpson FL
kin and Richard Dunlap we're returning to
Danvlle from this place, ria the Camp
Dick road, the horse, not master of the in
tense darkness, ran into pile Of rock, up
set the buggy, and hurried the Young gen
tlemen out upon terra Grna. Their first ef-
fort upon regaining their feet was TO cut
loose the struggling animal. This was ac-
complished imPerfeetly no that the horse
bounded forward while still partially con-
fined and wheeled around, piercing his
breast with the shaft. The blood flowed in
a torrent, the young gentlemen endeavor-
ing TO siaunch it with handkerchiefs ill !
the horse staggered from weakness. At
last succeeding in getting a light from a
house, the suffering animal
was led into a stable and left TO his fate. II
was thought that he could not survive. The .
gentlemen walked TO friends and pro-
cured another conveyance to take them
where their own bruises might be comfort b
ed Mr.. Elkin has badlY-sprained wrist. I
Sparkling Sunday night" is not always 40
fatal; but the heroes Of this adventure are
everywhere noted for their steady, upright I
principles and quiet conduct. The horse A
