FOtt THE N. c. vino.
Mr. Editor: I Lave just read in the
" Western Democrat," under the head of
" The Monument Question," a " labored "
cditorii'l article eomiut niiii.tr upon my ccui
niunicatioD published in the ' big " of
the lib instant, io wbitb I ex) o.-cd what I
consider tho erroneous opinions atd s.uti
menu of "a writer iu the ltaleijjh Standard,"
with regard to the erection of a " Monument
to the signers of the Mecklei.buru I'eclara
tiou of Imlc-pendciice,'' ut lvalcijjb in pref
erence to Charlotte. I remark at the out
set, that the article published by the Editor
is bo utterly irrelevant to the opinions and
sentiment expressed in my communication
that itis difficult to find iu it sentences with
sufficient bearing upon the subject iu (jucs
tion, or perspicuity enough to require a
reply. Hear him ; " Some persons are
fiveca enough to believe that Editors "en
dorse " every ibiug they select for their col
umns aud it may be Hubert d. Allison is
one of the number." The " Editor " lias con
victed himself of "Old Fogyi.-m at least, by
usin the adjective "green," because all
the progressive writer of this truly pro
gressive age, invariably use verdant instead
of" green," especially when they have refer
ence to (utilities of the mind and judgment.
W hile w riting; about " preen," association
of ideas reminds me of two illustrative an

A most terrible and heart rending acci

just arrived with the meUiicholy tidings,

thought to be truly fuarlul. .
Horrible to relate, ona of the passenger
uoachc-t took fire froiu the stoves, and was
entirely burned up, consuming with it some
three or four passengers, who wi re fco caught
under tho broken timbers that they could nut
be extricated. My iufonnsnt is eertain as
to three or four, and thinks there may have
been more. Tbe scene is said to have bit.,
truly appalling. -
Capt. lJoiirdelte, tho Weil known ind ef-fit-lent
Conductor, is very seriously injured,
aud so are many of tho passengers, Amidst
the great distress and confusion prevailing,
it was impossible to gather full pailiculat-,
or the names of tho parties.
It ks reported th.it among the killed are
the following :
Mr. Kilkully, the Adams Company's 1-ix-prcss
Mosseiier. Mr. K. was for many
years a Conductor ou the Wiliiiingtou and
Welilon Railroad, and was uuivt r.-tl'y and
deservedly esteemed. He leaves a family,
Mr. V. II. Daugbcrty, tbe mail agent,
who we believo is a unlive of Portsmouth,
and well knowu in all the sectiou of lountry
through which the road passes.
Iu addition to the above1, we give the fol
lowing particulars froiu the Petersburg Iu
telligcueer :
Mr. l'ourdette, the conductor, was s
Verely injured, bis head being badly bruis
ed aud several ribs broken.
Mr. Weymouth, the engineer, jumped off
tho eugiuu and alighted on a cypress tree,
which perforated his thigh aud otherwise
injured him.
Mr. and Mrs. Willam, passengers, were
injured, tbe latter, severely as it u supiios
ed that soma of ber facial bones are broken.
Tbe killed aud injured Were all taken to
Margarcttcstiile, where every thing that
w as'neccssary was doue to alleviate the suf
ferings of those who were injured.
In Adams iV Co's Kxpress car there a as
a large amount of money in bank notes for
a bank io Wilmington, (N. C.) which weia
burned and scorched aud scattered about
the woods by the wind.
The officers of the road are now ou tin
spot for the 'purpose of clearing up the
wreck and doing what liiey can to repair
the damages, which are uppov.d to amount
to about eliyilK).
There were fortunately Very fe passen
ger on the li aiu when the accidet.1 occurred.
Mr. CO. .Ssndloid, the nireriiittn del t
lf ,r,u,porU,ion on ,0 l'vW,utg ro,df
repaired esrly yesterday mo mi eg to the
scene of the disaster with an engine, bag
gage car and passenger car, and tendered
them to the managers of the Seaboard road,
as tbe motive power of that road waa ou
the I'orlsu.outh side of the wreck.
