IN TINT Hr. ]. Whiting w. slSu6k and tn1enully
killed by passing train atsorento 1.at uoad.y
morning Nr Whiting was blind h the right
eye and was vary deaf He was walking By the
side OF the railroad several fest from the track,
when the engine overlook and passed him be-
fore he was aware Of its presence. He wa very
r-uch startled by IN sudden appearance md
turred suddenly around and wa drawn towards
the track by the current Of air. The step On the
rear of the engine struck his leg and threw him
down his legs falling acrnss the track were Dotn
cut OF, and he was struck upon the head, and
was killed instantly. No lblame attaches TO the
engineer Is he justly supposed that the man could
hear the approaching trAin and was safe. Mr.
Whiting was from Boston, and with his wife and
daughter had been in Sorrento about six weeks.
He has a son in Tempe, Arizona, and . daughter
in Boston, where his remains will be carried for
interment
-CrawfOrdville WakuN0 Times . We noticed
our old friend and one of Wakulla's successful
farmers, Mr. Jefy Green, on our streets yester-
dav with n nice lot of home raised meat and lard
for sale. This looks like business; whenever
our farmers begin to make q surplus OF " hog
and hominy," then and not until then will our
county be in a prosperous condition. We are
indebted to Mr.. J. c. MILESTONE for fine lot OF
the famous Barnacle bar" oysters, which he
sent Us to prove that our Cult coast oysters are
not only OF the very finest flavor, but in size are
hard to beat. We must confess that If oysters
grow any larger than those sent US by MIR. W.
they must certainly reach prodigious size.
We would call the attention OF our County Com
missioners to the wretched condition of the lower
bridge across the Wakulla river. From all &C
counts it is almost imDassable, and is certainly
dangerous to cross. This is beyond a doubt
the most important bridge in the county and
should be thoroughly repaired at one.
Pensacola PensacoIian Governor Perry hav-
ing signed the death warrant of JEFF Lowe, fx-
ing Tnesiay the 28th OF February next, az the
date of execution, the prisoner, without some
providential Interpolation, will be swung into
eternity at that time When this hopeless in
strument was read to Lowe. he showed no signs
of emotion, but on the coutr .ry appeared to be
perfectly prepared to receive the intelligence,
and in fact thanked the Governor tor having
shown him go much consideration. The pris-
oner forfeits his life in expiation OF most brutal
murder on his part o.. A survey was held to-
day on the bark Ada Carter the vessel that put
in here leaking. Surveyors found she is almost
beyond repair, even al considerable cost, and re-
commend her sale She will be advertised for
sale for account of whom il may concern.
The Bera AttiOus is the name OF a vessel
which was reported al the Custom House
yesterday for measurement. She was built
or the ChOc,awhatchie river, and is in
tended for coasting trade.
