The Killing fa Negro nan and Cut ting of Another. Yesterday afternoon Sheriff W. L. G. Kent, of Norfolk county, reported at the jxUce station - that a murder hatTbeencommitted on the Princess Anne road,' abont 4 miles from the city, and that the murderer had made his eRcape'and was supposed to be concealed in the city. His call was to receive the assistance of the police authorities here, in order to ferret the murderer. We were unable to learn the par ticulars of the affair. It seems, how ever, that a difficulty occurred be tween two negroes named George 3Ioran, . Steven, and another whose name we could not hear. In the affray the man Stevens was stab bed and killed by the negro -JMoran, who . also wounded the other, and then made his escape. Moran is stated to be a very large and powerful man On hearing the report from Sheriff Kent instructions were at once given to the police to be on the lookout for the murderer. -.Norfolk' Virginian. .

An accident 'occurred on the Wilmington, Charlotte and Rutherford Railroad on Sat urday evening last which narrowly escaped proving disastrous in its results. A timber train was crossing the bridge over the Pee Dee River when the engine and tender ran oft the track, going for some distance on the cross beams, jumping from one to the other and coming within six inches of run ning off the side, in which case the engine and tender and in all probability the entire train would have been precipitated to the rocky bed of the river, at least 50 feet below. The engineer and fireman stuck, to their posts and to their skillful and heroic efforts is due the safety of the train, as well as of themselves. The up passenger train was close behind the timber train, and Capt. Leggctt, the Conductor, found it necessary to secure another engine and some spare furs, to which the mails and passengers were transferred and taken to Ldiesvuie, where' they arrived only about an hour Miind the usual time. i"-' " " ' : An exciting runaway occurred near the corner of Eighth and Chesnut streets, yes ii'iduy afternoon.

In the case of Wm. H. Harrison, con victed of forgery, a motion was made for a new trial, which was overruled and an ap peal taken. Henry King, charged with larceny, was "found not guilty " The civil docket will probably be reached by Wednesday or Thursday. The Cantata To-Night. The Cantata of New Year's Eve, in which sixty performers are to appear, will come off at City Hall this morning. The most elaborate and thorough arrangements have been made to secure for this enter tainment a degree of excellence which has seldom if ever been attained by any similar performance in this city. The staging of the Hall has been en larged so as to adapt it to the occasion and will be beautifully and appropriately ar ranged by the ladies, who have charge of the matter, assisted by Manager Spalding anddhers. The tickets, which are for sale at Heins berger's Bookstore and Mebane's drug store, are being taken very rapidly, and we predict a crowded house this evening. Backed Into the River. A drayman attempted to back his horse and dray to the end of the wharf foot of Princess street, yesterday morning, to take in a load of wood, but in doing so the ani mal gave the-vehicle a little more impetus than was intended and dray and horse plunged backwards into the river. The drayman, together with a few friends, rush ed to the rescue and finally succeeded in getting the animal into the dock and from thence safely on to the wharf. No dam age. Cotton and Naval Stores.

We regret to learn that the blow received byCapt. B. G. Bryan, Conductor on the Wilmington, Columbia and Augusta Rail road, near Wbiteville, on . Thursday morn ing last, caused by some scoundrel throw ing a missile through the window of the car, is likely to result in the loss of his eye. The cowardly villain who perpetrated the act should be hunted up and awarded the punishment he deserves: fflTan Drewned. Last night, about half past 9 o'clock, a colored man, by the name of William El lis, engaged in unloading a flat at tbe wharf of Messrs. Worth & Worth, accidentally fell overboard and was drowned before any assistance could be rendered him. He arose to the surface once, but after slapping the water two or three times with his hands, showing that he was evidently unable to rwim, he disappeared beneath the waves and was seen no more. The other hands on the flat made every effort to rescue their comrade, but without avail. Art Entertainment. Prof. G. R.

When the pure medicinal restorative, now so wide ly known as Ldolpho Woub's Sohitoah Schkafts, was introduced into the world under the endorse ment of four thousand leading members of the med ical profession, some twenty years ago, its proprie tor was well aware that it could not wholly escape the penalty attached to all new and useful prepara tions.

Condensed from the Raleigh Sentinel. Saturday, Feb. 5, 1873. SENATE. President Brogden in the chair. - Mr. Respass rose to a question of person al privilege, and said : Mr. President, I see in yesterday's Era a communication under the head of "Have we a Republican Party in N. C. ?" in which the insignificant author attempts to cast re flections upon the course of Republican members of this General Assembly, and es pecially upon certain Senators, myself in cluded, for voting for certain of the consti tutional amendments. Sir, as a Republican, I challenge a single step of inconsistency in my whole political life. The Republican party, if the writer knew anything of their past history, have pledged themselves in their State Convention in favor of many of the proposed amendments to the constitu tion, and in the campaign of 1871 on every political hustings, they -pledged the peo ple" their support' in changing the con stitution by legislative enactment; and there are many Republicans who are in fa vorable to some of the proposed amend ment and would vote for them but for such small-minded demagogues as "Linville," who only can or will be known as Republi cans of doubtful value and of as little honor,; integrity or consistency as he has common sense or wish for the success of the Repub lican party. And when he says that I am afraid to express my honest convictions on this floor, or that I have been made by Democrats or oy anything else above an honest conviction, his scurrilous article in cluded, to support any measure except for the good of North Carolina and the best interests of the Republican party, the least i can say of him is that he is a base liar. Mr. Cramer endorsed the remarks of Mr. Rcsoess as a Renublican. Mr. Love said it would be remembered that recently a question arose in the Senate as to which was entitled to precedence, a "special order," the hour for its considera tion having arrived, or another but then un der consideration, on which the "previous question" had been called, the call sustain ed, and the ayes and noes ordered. The chair decided in favor of the special order. Mr. Love appealed. The chair was sus tained, by a very decided vote Mr. Love and three or four others, voting in the nega tive. Mr. Love stated that he was so well assured he was in the right that he had written to Washington, and now held in his hand a letter, in which Mr. Chisbee, and Speaker Blame, accomplished, thor ough parliamentarians, endorsed his posi tion. On motion of Mr. Troy the vote by which was passed, last night, the bill to charter the Merchants' Bank of Fayetteville, was reconsidered.
