Injured Helping the injured.

On Monday of last week Mr. James A.
Dorset, OF Pottersyile injured his hand Sc
verey in attempting to hold runaway team,
which took fright at Pope's Greek from
the train, where he had driven to it to meet
and take to tho residence of Mr., George
Dent, his orother-in law, Mr. Ledue
Maddox, son of the late Joseph Maddox, a
helpless cripple from injuries received while
in the employ of the Illinois Central Railroad,
in Indiana. Mr.. Dorset has been for more
than year suffering from II sore on his
hand, and the injured member had quite
healed, wien the first nishap occurred tear
i.g open the wounds again. Mr.. Maddox was
in the employ of the aiorenamed railroad as
brakesman, and in last December by accident
a train ran over one Of his legs cutting it of
and over portion of the foot of the other leg,
an amputation OF the same to the
instep, and this coming to the county is on a
visit to his sister, Mrs George Dent, pending
the final healing of his injured limbs Much
sympathy is expressed for Mr.. Dorset as well
as his unfortunate brother.In-law.

Harsh Treatment.

In another column will be seen the card
of Mr.. George l.. Jones, agent for the popular
old steamer Mattano, complaining Of the harsh
treatment received at the hands Of persons he
has heretofore favored, in locking the boat out
from touching at the wharves in Port Tobacco
creek, as it heretofore did. Mr.. L. s. Randall
has rented both Chapel Point and Brent :
wharf, and will not allow any Other steamer
to land, thus preventing all competition and
nonopolizing all the shipping to ana from
those wharves. The right Of Mr.. Randall to
so monopolize the shipping trade of Port To-
bscco creek no one denies nor does anyone
question the right of the proprietors of the
wharves 10 do with their property as they
please, but to the minds Of the discerning
public, the action of Mr.. c. c. Lancaster, in
letting Chapel Point wharf out in the interest
of a monopoly at this early day when his
place is bidding for the county seat, is but the
evidence of what may be expected in that line
should the thinking public unfor tunalely fall
in the trap set for them by that scheming
monopolist and locate the county sea- there
in fact.
