particulars of a terrible accident which
occurred near Surrounded Hill, on the
Memphis and Little Rock Railroad, on
Friday, have reach this city. 1t appears,
that Mr.. II. w. Lawrence, in company

about sixteen years of age, were driving
in u carriage % visit some friends at
Surrounded Hill. Reaching small
bayou the mother aud daughter, the
former with the infant in her arms
stepped out while Lawrence led the
horses on to the ferry beat, a small fiat
boat. The ladies then stepped aboard
and the craft was pushed into the
stream. When midway the horses
became frightened and began rearing
and backing. In their struggles they
crowded the mother, baby and daughter
into the stream and finally ended in
backing the carriage and themselves
overheard into the midst Of the strug-
Cling unfortnnates in the water. Law
rene made frantic by the accident jump
ell overheard and attempted to rescue his
wife and children, bnt without avail.
fhe horses, carriage and victims were
mixed in an lnextricable mass and all
went down together. The bayou was
subsequently dragged and the bodies Of
the unfortunate victims were recovered.

threatened with water famine. Their
supply of water is mainly the rain fall,
which is caught in cisterns There are

from them is Of very poor quality,
scarcely fit for cooking purposes, Tank
carts with the inscription "Pure Water
for Sale" may be See, daily going mp
anu DOM the avenues. This water
came from the Absecom Springs, and
is retailed at one cent per gallon. The
Railroad cannot bring but u few hun
dred gallons per day, and over half of
that amount is consumed by one of the
