Train Ran Oft. Yesterday morniag, the Statesville train started off, the engine pushing two box cars to be put off At the "Y," close to the Caro lina Central crossing. At the point where the Statesville and the Air Line Roads cross, one of the box cars took te the Air Lias track and the other kept its proper 'ceurse. This division of sentimeat between the cars confused the engine, and by way of splitting the difference, took to the ties, bat before it did so, pushed the two cars from the respective tracks which they had taken. Then cars, engine and tender were all off. The passengers, thinking they were in for half the day, came back up street to get breakfast, and before they returned, the train had been replaced and had gone on its way The accident 'occasioned a delay of abptft'ejf.&arnd.

We copy from the Raleigh Jfews, digests of the opinions of the Supreme Couit, Jan uary Term, 1876, in the cases named below, which went op from this District : State on the relation of M Adams and wife and others vs James Quinn and oth ers, from Gaston. Wheaeyer the relation of guardian and ward is proved or admitted, either party has a right to an account unless- the action can be barred by the plea of insimul compu tatsent, or a release, or thestatute of limita tion. v Where the guardian is charged with fraud by his wards, the plaintiffs, in that, be sold certain lands whilst acting as guardian and never accounted for the proceeds, the plain tiffs are entitled to an answer to their com plaint, and to a reference for an account. John M King and others vs. E M Lynch, Ex'r, and others, from Rutherford. A testator bequeathed as follows : "2. All my property not otherwise disposed of, to be sold at my death and all my children made equal; taking into consideration what I have already advanced or given them, as will appear by reference to a book where I have kept their accounts thus far," &c. Be fore the date of this will, the testator had giyen to each of two sons, a valuable tract of land: Held, that the land so given not appearing in the testator's book, was not to be accounted an advancement, in contrib uting the surplus bo as to make his children equal.

' Saperler Court. Only one criminal case was tried, yter day. That against John Shepherd, colored, for stealing a mule from Mr W W Alexan dtr, in the early part of '75. He was found guilty and sentenced to ten years in the Penitentiary. : In the afternoon the civil issue docket was taken up and 30 or 40 cases were disposed of by continuance, non-suit, compromise, abatement, and otherwise. The Elweod caseVbich waireferred to, yesterday, was again taken up and discussed. This case is rather an anomalous one. and presents a point urjon which the attorneys, Solicitor and defendant's counsel have thus far been able to produce very little authority, The point iayolyed.is, whether, after;a man is'corivietedtif murder and" sentenced, and afterwards pardoned by the Governor, he can be committed to jail for failing or refus ing to pay the costs ,. Judge Schenck, after argument, decided that the court had a right to order the defendant into custody for the coswhfch was dbnj. . Efwood prayed an -appeal i ; which was . granted, provided the usual- appeal bond was given. Elwood'e counsel then offered an affidavit that, owing to extreme poverty &c., he could not give the bend, and offered his mother as surety, in a bond of $500 fer his Aopearaace at next court. She justified and stated that she had several nunarea acsrlaad, whereupon the J udge stated that it was strange that de fendant could so asUy give srlch' Bobd eqarjity for, bis appearance, and was unable to give a bond in the sum of $30, the amount of the appeal berrfaadMaed that he was desirous that tfief' case should eo no and SiPpinJ f tled i ;but aaid he. wwaat Willing that it ahoTd;be settled .kt-Oik .v f the t$afrei$, fjitf that the circumstances jm.wMcviMiBjyeiiei inas tne amdaTit hr in ability to giyj the.

A correspondent of the Danville (Va ) Express, writes a strong article to that paper recommending Col John H. Fi3her, Receiv er of the Atlanta & Richmond Air Line Railroad, for Receiver likewise of the At lantic, Mississippi & Ohio (Gen. Mabone's) Railroad. We copy this much of what is said of the road and it3 management, and are pleased to be able to give our endorse ment to the language need : "This road has had many disadvantages to contend with since its completion which was about the time of the great financial crisis of the country in 1873. Shortly after the road had been partially equipped and advertised for business, questions of dispute arose between different interest which led to litigation and finally resulted in the road being placed in the hands ot a Receiver, since which time we are informed everything has been work ing smoothly. Col. John H. Fisher, of New "York, was appointed Receiver, and under his watchful and prudent supervision, the financial condition of the Company has. been much improved. His extended andments of the compliment paid me. My successful financial experience and abiiitwl has been fully exemplified in the manage- ment of this road. He has brought order and success out of chaos and failure." A Mew Element in the Mining World. A marked copy of a late issue of tLe New York Herald, just received by ope of our mining operators, gives prominent notice in the financial and commercial ifepartment, relating to the perfect success (at last) of a process for treating refractory ores to obtain therefrom the gold, silver nd copper. Now, as this subject is one wnich directly concerns the people of this section, as well as other mining countries, the announcement that refractory eres "can be successfully and cheaply treated,'' must be cheerful intelli gence to all in this country who realize the fact that on this depends, to a very great ex tent, the prosperity of Western North Caro lina. This process, known as the "Fryer," will revolutionize the present methods, and en able us to save a vast amount of material, hitherto regarded as refuse in its rebellious cenditien. To use the exact language of the Herald article: "As much interest, not only in New York but other Eastern cities, is beginning to be attracted to mining prop erties, we quote from a California paper the following account of the construction and use of the works which have just been opened in Grass Valley : 'The whole apparatus is entirely different from anything in use before, and consists of a furnace designed to roast (at a high tem perature) relractory orejsto reduce the noble metals te a pure s'.ate before amalgamation. The second operation is treating the roasted ore in a revolving apparatus of octagon shape provided with equal capacity to a five stamp battery. Quick ailrer, hot water and some cheap chemicals yet unnamed, are placed in the cylinders with the reasted ores, the heads of the cylinders are tightly closed and the pulverizing apparatus is set in mo tion at the rate of tan revolutions to the minute. A cylindrical weight of 20 pounds falls twice upon the ore in every revolution, pulverizing it to an impalpable powder, while at the tame time amalgamation is going on. After six hours of this treatment the pulp is then ejected through a pipe into a separator where it is met by a powerful stream of water at the bottom of the sepaia tor vat, which keeps ths pulp in active no tion. The amalgam falls into a receptacle at the bottom of the separator and the slums float at the top. Theie pass through a rotary square box, provided with copper plates to catch the smallest particle of amal gam, if such could possibly escape. The amalgam is drawn off and retorted, and in twelve hours from the time the quartz is put in the furnace the result in bullion is ob tained, varying from 90 to 95 per cent of the assay value of the ore, and all at a small cost. The octagon pulverizer moved off as though it had been used for years. There is but one sentiment heard, Damely: that a revolution in mining had been inaugurat ed.' " As a farther fact of interest to our people in the gold fields on the Apalachian chain, we would eay that Germany and other European countries intend sending to this country during the present year, a corps of mining engineers and experts, and that their field of operations is to embrace nearly all our mineral States and Territories, espec ially those producing gold and silver. Owners of mining property are felicitating themselves upon the prospect which this fact presents of obtaining European capital, and we should be alive to the importance of showing up our resources , and thereby in duce some of this much needad capital to extensively open np our mine?, which com pare favorably with thoie of any other mining locality on the American continent. COM Jt UN ICATKD. Ueu Thoe S Ashe for Congress. Editors Charlotte Observer: There is, really, but one issue before the country, in the coming election, and that will determine whether fraud or corruption shall continue to characterize the govern ment and tyrannise oyer the people. Every thing else, about which we may feel muoh concerned, is involved in this issue, and will take its complexion from its result. In fact, it is the part cf wisdom and of patriot ism, to ignore all merely political questions, until this great matter of reform js Settled. Under this view of onr case, it is a duty as well as a privilege; which we cannot safely and consistently ferego, to commend and endorse the public servant who, in the midst of almost universal corruption, has proved incorruptible and faithful in the discharge of all his dutiss. If a people have secured the services of one who is abeve reproach, as to his moral character, and at the same time capable and reliable in the discharge of his duties, a proper regard for the moral and in tellectual qualities which make him worthy of their confidence and support, will also de mand that, at a time like this, he should be retained in the service. These remarks are made by way of intro ducing the suggestion, that the re-nomina tion and election of such a high toned gen tleman as Hon Thos S Ashe, just at this juncture, is due to the cause of honesty and virtae, and will, express more decidedly than mere words, the determination of the people to uphold that eause, and make it the psiamount object, thechief purpose of all their efforts' to restore this government te Us aneient position of honor and of influence. If hes1s Tiafre-Tieminated no matter how worthy his successful competitor may be it may reasonably be charged upon us that high'eharacter, irreproachablo life, patriotic devotion to country, and constancy to prin ciple, are hot at last,'Jin"e clarifications we lo.ok for And, desire, but some mere local policy rale our choice. Where then are our professions of concern' about the character of the goyemnjent and the integrity of its ruler's, n.f:.T! ,rr, ,,r. . ...

A. Blacjcwelder. Charlotte, May 25th. DIED. In Wilmington, on Tuesday evening, 23d inst, at 7 o'clock, of consumption. Rev. Thos. L. DeVeaux, editor of the North Car olina Presbyterian, aged about 40 years. Mr. DeVeaux waa a native of South Carolina, where he,first officiated as a minister of the Presbyterian church. He resided in Florida for several years, ceming from that State to North Carolina about four years ago. He edited the North Carolina Presbyterian nearly four years. Owing to an affection of his throat and lungs, he had not preached in several years. That was a sharp reply of the old Scotch woman who had a standing quarrel with her minister, but was al ways in her place at church. The minister expressed surprise that she should come to hear him preach, when she exclaimed, "My quarrel's wi' you, mon ; it's not wi' the gospel." Hen Egg Food. Some ingenious ex perimenter has worked until arriving at the conclusion that hens can be made to lay eggs plentifully all the year round, if well cared for in neat, clean heusinged changes of yards, and fed on food made of pure dried blood, dried meat and bone, all ground into meal, given them three or lour times a day. This is certainly a matter of importance to those engaged in raising fowls with a view to profit, and it will influence many to engage in it more extensively and give more care to At. If our people could be induced to study and work up this great interest like they do in France, it would be better for our health as a people, and for the pockets of those people who engage in raising poultry. . The Good Time Coming. The Bible foretells the day when children shall no more die in infancy, and people live to old age free from ill health and dis ease. In the sixty-fifth chapter of the Book of Isaiah, is this remarkable pre diction : "I will create a new heaven and a new earth, and the former shall not be remembered nor come into mind. And the voice of weeping shall no more be heard in her, nor the voice of crying. There shall be no more thence an infant of days, nor an old man that hath not filled his days for the child shall die an hundred years old. And they shall build houses and inhabit them, and plant vineyards and eat the fruit of them. They shall not build and another inhabit, they shall not plant and another eat. For as the days of a tree are the days of my people, and mine elect shall long enjoy the work of their hands. They shall not labor in vain, nor bring forth in trou ble." Could there be a more beautiful prophecy of tr e days that health re formers of every class would gladly see. Alas! how far off seems their realization still. Herald of Health. SPECIAL.
