The lands I there seem well adapted to tho growth of the weed. It is a stiff potato soil and would doubtless produce well. An ex periment was made there a few years ago and two crops were gathered from the same stalks in - one season. The leaves, some of them J were thirty inch es in length.. The grower knew next to nothing of the curing process. Homing the leaves up in his barn and when they were dry he sold them for 22J cents per pound. Those in this city interest ed in the manufacture of tobacco should offer inducements for its cultivation in this section. 4 ( The Lovell Library. , We hare received from the publish ers, Messrs Jno.

' Kun Over and Killed. couple of colored boys, aged about 15 and 20 years, respecuveiy, wuro iuu over and killed by tho Western ' bound passenger train on the Carolina Central Railroad, on Wednesday nigbti at Ed wrtl Crossing, between Rosindalo and Jarvis The boys were in the cm. ploy of Mr. J. A. Edwards and left his house as the train blew for a wood sta tion just below it. The traiu stopped to wood up and proceetlod on its journey. Yesterday morning the Eastern bound passenger train was flagged down at Edwards Crossing so that, tho man gled bodies of the boys could bo remov ed from tho track- Their legs and arms were cut off by the train and their bodies so horribly mangled that all who saw them were made sick by the terri ble sight. The supposition is that the boys went out to see the train pass on Wednesday night and sat, or laid iown. on the track while waiting for the train to leave the wood station and fell asleep. They were doubtless instantly killed by tho train .which passed over their bodies.
