LamentabIe Accident.

Day before yesterday, at about
O'Clock p. NJ, horrible and fatal
accident occurred on the farm OF
Hon. Asa Ellis, near Savannah.
Mr.. Ellis's son Charley had taken
horse by the halter to lead him
to water, in the corral. While the
animal was drinking the boy
twisted tho rope around his body.
Presently a hog came along.
Charley took off his cap and waved
it at the hog, to scare the brute off.
The gesture frightened the horse,
which bounded off atgreat speed,
with Charley attached to the rope.
Although the family were quickly
around, and rushed to his assist
ance, it was fully fifteen minutes
before Mr.. Ellis succeeded in cut
ting the rope, releasing the poor
youth, in whom life was by that
time altogether extinct.
Charley Ellis was between four.
teen and fifteen years old; and,
during the last session of the Leg
islature he was one of the pages OF
the Senate. He won many friends
in Sacramento by his cleverness
and amiable qualities. He was a
youth of talent and energy, and
gave promise of q useful and
honorable manhood. Our whole
people will join with US in tender
ing our sincere coincidence to Mr..
Ellis and his family.

Indian DevIItry.

A letter from Julian, dated on
Monday last, gives the particulars
of sad affair at Banner which oc-
Cured on Sunday last. Mrs. w.
V. King, whose husband was the
discove-er OF the Golden Chariot
mine, was passing from home to
visit Mrs. 1jams, short distance
from her own house, with two lit
tie children with her. Becoming
tired, she sat down by the roadside
10 rest, and while sitting there an
Indian came along, and grabbing
her baby attempted to make of
withit. AS matter Of course, the
neither made an effort to get II
away from the Indian, and In that
effort the vile brute stabbed Mrs.
King IN the breast with a knife,
from the wound of which 1t was
uncertain as to the fate of the lady
at the time the letter was written,
though DIR. Winder, who fortunate-
ly happened to be near at hand,
was addressing himself to her case
assiduously. But the trouble
seemed to be in succeeding In
stanching the blood. What the
object Of the Indian could have
been In thus attacking the lady
aud her child is, of course, a secret
in his own breast.-Sdn Diego

Cenric, fine wooden ship of $40 tons,
which has recently arrived at Bombay
from Liverpool with cargo of COAL
Common pine oil was used in heavy
gale of wind to prevent the sea breaking
on board, and with perfect success. The
gale lasted for nearly five days, and
ragged with determined violence. 1t had
lasted some little time when the chief
officer, Mr.. Bowyer, bethought himself
of plan he had seen tried on some oe-
casions when in the Atlantic trade to
prevent the sea breaking in. He pro-
posed to the captain that the plan should
be tried, and the suggestion was follow
ed. Mr.. Bowyer got out two canvas
clothes bags, and into each poured two
gallons of pine oil. He punctured the
bags slightly, and flung one over each
quarter, towing them along. The effect
was magical. The waves no longer
broke against the poop and side of the
ship, but at yards and yards away where
the oil had slowly spread itself over the
surface of the water. Around the poop,
in the wake of the vessel, was a large
circuit of calm water. The crew were
thus able to repair damages with greater
ease, the ship was relieved of those tre-
mendous shocks received from the mass
of waters which poured over her quar-
ters and stern, and the danger was con-
siderably lessened. The two bags lasted
two days, after which, the worst fury Of
the gale having expended itself, no more
oil was used. -Four gallons of oil,
scarcely worth 3Os., perhaps saved the
King Cenric, its cargo, and the lives and
property of the crew.
