THERE was no~reason why Massa-

the governor could not resist the press

blood, but it was done in the gentler and
more womanly way of poisoning. Still,
if she is to suffer solitary confinement,
with no companion to talk to and no
knowledge of what the fashions in dress
are, it is doubtful if she will long con-
tinue to be grateful to the governor.

There was very singular acciden,
at Tracky's, station in North Car
DINA, on the Wilmington and weldon
Railway, on Wednesday. A baggage
master named William Patrick was
standing in the door of the mail car,
and leaning out held letter in his
hand. In some way the hook which
forms part Of the mail catcher caught
him under the chin, and he was swung
clear off the cars. In this manner,
with the hook tearing his throat and
sustaining his entire weight, he was
carried fully 100 yards before he was
thrown down. The man will probably
die.
