Ku n aw ay A ccident. Co n s id era hle excitement was .created yester day afternoon about 5 o'clock, by a horse dashing up Trvon street with 1 the remnants of a pair of hnrness on him. It was presently ascertain ed that the hone was the same which had but a short time previous betm driven through the streets by Mr.-Wv 'RrSadrer, f this vhy, who tth taking Miss Lizzie McGehee, of Person county, at present visiting in Charlotte, out for an evening ride. It tfDDeara that, whila rlrivitvbr haolr city from the direction of the Fair Grounds, the horse got frightened just alter passing the res idence of Col. John L. Morehead, and became unmanageable. He started running at a high rate of speed and continued this until the buggy, was turned over, causinsr both LMiss McGehee and Mr. Saddler to be" th row ri heavily to the ground. - The young lady was picked up by willing hands and taken to the resi dence of Col. Morehead near by. A physician was sent for, and Dr. Rob ert Gibbon soon arrived and found her, though somewhat bruised and stunned by the fall, not seriously hurt. Mr Sadler fell from the buggy on his hfead and was hurt considera bly, though not seriously. After he occupants had been thrown from the buggy, the horse continued his race, during which he ran against, upset and broke the buggy of Capt. J. Y Bryce, whiuh was standing on the side of the street, Also, we believe, throwing one per-, son out of this buggy. Mr. Sadler's horse made a perfect wreck of th(e buggy and harness, and also injured himself. The horse continued to run until stopped near the crossing of Trade and Try on streets. i We are gratilied in saying that Miss McGehee is not hurt so badly as was firlt reported, and, in all iSrdHabiHty, will recover from her injuries in a few days. Mr. Sadler naturally regrets the occurrence be yond measure. It is currently reported that a cer tain young lady and gentleman who were out riding horse-back, .and who wfere near'the scene of the accident. caused the iright of Mr. Sadler's horse by riding rapidly up behind. This is untrue. The party on horse- oacK were in tront, having passed I 1 I I nie otners a mne oacic. COMMUHICATKD.l Letter from PIneyllle. Pineville, N. C, March 23, 1873 Our merchants are receiving large and well-selected stocks ot goods from the Northern cities, and are expecting a heavy business this year. Our farmers, so far, have stood the crisis and seem to be in good spirits. Wheat, oats, rye, barley and clover are lookii g Well and promises a good yield. God grant that it may be so. There is not near so niucn demand for fertilizers as there was last year, and there wjll not be osed mbre thn half as much. More atten tion is given to home fertilizers and deep ploughing. . - There will not be so much cotton planted this year as was ' last year, bt more corn, potatoes, peas, &c, for family aupply. We have the fence law in our township and feel as. if our lands were worth at least $3 an acre more nowthan before the fence aw came in force. We never see stray stock out of the pastures bothering along Rail roada, treets and high ways. We think once get used to it. It is certain that it is worth giving a fair trial on this barren country, and it is to be hoped that every body in our, township will give it a fair and impartial rest. ' W. communicated.
