MARION, November 27.-News has
iust reached here of the horrible death of
the ffteen-year- old daughter of Mr.. G.
w. Virgins In the upper part of this
County, and of the probable death Of
another lady, whose name cannot just
now be found out. The unknown lady
was teaching school, and Miss Wiggins
was one of her pupils. The clothes Of
the young girl caught on fire while
standing by the fire, and in the efforts Of
her teacher to subdue the fire both were
horribly burned, 80 much so that Miss
Virgins died in few minutes, and the
teacher is not expected to live.
CHARLOTTE, N. c., November 90
The fast mail and express train No. 81,
bound for Atlanta, and due here at l2:4O
O'Clock this evening, came in ten minutes
behind time. This delay was very slight,
and would not have excited comment,
but for the tale the passengers told. The
ten minutes delay was the result of 8
stoppage to take up the body of man
who was dashed to death by the engine.
The dead man was Frank NJ. Eisman,
and he was killed near China Grove,
about twenty-eight miles north of Char
lotte, and almost within sight of his
home. This is the fast train, which
makes no stops between Salisbury and
Concord, and it was approaching road
crossing, near China Grove, under full
speed. The warning notes of the engine
whistle sounded out GEAR, but as the en-
gine was within fifty feet Of the crossing, a
horse drawing a covered wagon got
directly on the track. The inevitable
result followed. The engine shot through
the wagon, breaking it into thousand
splinters, and flying among the timbers
was the body of the occupant OF the
wagon. He was killed instantly. Neigh.
bors recognized him as Mr.. M. Eisman,
and his home was near by. He did not
hear the approaching train and the wsg-
on cover prevented him from seeing it.

Mr.. EDITOR: Please let me explain 8
little in regard to the resolutions adopted
by Townville School No. l, three weeks
ago. Right or wrong, I was the author of
them, and, perhaps, they were adopted
without change out of kindness to myself
The action taken by the County School
Board at time of the Mitigation" was only
known by me from heresay, but from the
source judged it to be correct, and be-
cause T was opposed to the litigation at
first and have regretted it ever siuce, and
was anxious for the decision as reported
to me to be rescinded, hence the reason OF
my asking the patrons of our school to
adopt the resolutions. On yesterday L
saw, for the first time, what vas said to be
true copy of the Boards decision in the
case, and to my mind it is susceptible OF
being construed both ways, as expressed
in resolutions and as claimed by the
friends of the other school. am sure my
motives in the matter were sincere, and
believe the same of those who acted with
me- And this is all have TO say.

a Bill to abolish attcrneys' cost has
been introduced, aud stands chance of
being passed. This Bill, if it should pass,
would cause the successful party in all
cases to pay for enforcing his rights in
the Courts. There is a disposition on the
part of many lawyers in the House not
to oppose it. Several of the farmers with
whom Ihave conversed oppose it, because
it would be unjust and unfsir to the party
in the right, to be compelled to pay more
to get his rights.
The members are inclined to be con-
servative, and 1 do not look for any rad.
ical changes in our laws, though lock
for an addition of some Offices, and a
