A KAILBOAD SLAUGHTER. i be Horrible Aeefdenl mn tbe Wes tern Nortu Carolina Hallrosd on Wednesday. L Raleigh Observer. A special telegram to the Observer yesterday gave a brief account of a horrible accident on the Western North Carolina Railroad, whereby three men lost their lives. Mr. Richmond Pearson, who was an eye witness of the occurrence, reached the city yesterday, and gave a repor ter a full account of it. The acci dent happened at a point about one fourth of a mile above the now famous "Mud-Cut," and not far from the summit of tbe Blue Ridge. The track at that place had been before regarded as safe, the road-bed appear ing to be in good condition. The heavy and continuous rains, followed hy dry weather, caused the embank ment to give way, fissures appearing m several places, allowing the track to incline to one side. The construc tion train, constating of an engine and a flat car, was on its way down to Mud Cut. On the flat car were forty con victs and several guards. When tbe train reached this point on the road, at a speed of about twenty or twenty five miles an hour, the engine went past it safely, but tbe track sunk to one side under the pressure of the car;5 In moment tbe oaf pitched forward and then went over and over down the Bteep face of the em bankment, there fifty feet in height. As the car pitched forward one of the guard, Jaa. Bradly, of McDowell county, was thrown under it, and cat literally in pieces by the crushing weight. Two.xsonvicts, Collier Hill and Claibdrne Swett both colored, the latter from Craven county, were also killed instantaneously, and hor ribly mangled, one being disembow eled. Two; other convicts, Charles king, white, of Wilmington, and Sam Jones, colored, were dangerously woundedy the former having his knee cut off. The other persons on the car were nearly all bruised, and the car itself wrecked. ' In rear of this construction train, and following it, was the passenger r VOL. XXVI.NO. 6. train. It was only two hundred yards away when the accident occurred. The engineer stopped it almost in a moment, and the trembling passen gers alighted and went to assist the unfortunates on the wrecked car. The passenger train oould not, of coarse, go beyond the break, and the passen gers were compelled to walk to Round Knob. jEU city. NBW AIIVKBTISBnBm. We Intitk. A. David S. 8. S. Stevenson Groceries.

Day's length. 12 hours and 28 minutes. The storm signal was again at the masthead yesterday. Bad colds and sore throats are very prevalent in the community just now. There was a big horse sale at Exchanxu Comer, yesterday morning, Messrs Ui only fc Morris officiating. Two valuable rice plantations in Brunswick county, near this city, are offer ed for sale in this issue of the Star. The Register of Deeds issued two marriage licenses during the past week, both of which were for white couples. The foul weather prevented the appearance of Sir Reynard last night in the performance as announced yesterday. Three white men were arrested and lodged ia the Guard House yesterday afternoon, charged with disorderly conduct. Rev. R. S. W. Leak, colored, formerly of this city, is mentioned in the Kinston Journal as "local pastor" of the A. M. K Church there. We learn that the open air reli gious meetings at Dudley's Grove, which were kept up for some time last summer, will be resumed shortly. Mr. A. L. Henkel, of New Mar ket, Vs., one of the proprietors of thefo nandoah Valley and Our Church Paper, ia in the cityr a gueat of Rev. Dr. Bemheim. The storm of wind and rain which prevailed yeaterday culminated about 11 P. M. in a violent gale, with the wind blowing at the rate of fifty miles an houirV as reported from the Signal office. . Anothher temperance prayer meeting will be held at Brooklyn Hall on Friday evening next, to attend which min isters of tbe various denominations and the public generally are cordially invited. A gentleman informs us that Mrs. Peel, who keeps' a boatding house at Timmonsville, 8. C, on the line ol hW., C. fc A. K. R , served on her table last year three thousand and seven hundred chickens. Her boarders are evidently fond of poultry. By request, St. Paul's Rectory will be onened for another Penny Reading on to-morrow (Monday) at 8 o'clock P. M. We think we can insure for those who are disposed to attend a most enjoyable even ing, judging from the reperts we have heard of tbe last entertainment. In some of the towns in this State, particularly Newbern, the sport of "egg pecking" is a favorite one with the boys. Tbe season commences wito master and continues for several weeks. It is a little singular that tbe amusing pastime has never been introduced here. . We learn that very interesting class meetings are held at tbe Front Street M. E. church every Sunday morning, at 10 o'clock, and also at the Fifth Street church every Sunday afternoon, at half-past 3 o'clock, and are requested to say that, all Christians are cordially Invited to attend them. Danaeroaaiy Wonndad. Among the convicts on the train on the Western N. C. Railroad when the terrible accident happened on Wednesday last, was Charles King, of this city, who was danger ously wounded. He was sentenced at tbe October term of the Criminal Court in 1878 to five years imprisonment in tbe peniten tiary for the larceny of money. 1 .MORN WILMINGTON, f.r, .... .... ToDaT'a Indleatlsas.

M. Wentwortb,' alias John Duwell,' and represented himself to trie colored people thereabouu as aflrst-cIaSTschool teacher. Beingin need of "a good! school the neigh bora immediately went to, work and organ ized one, ef which-he took charge; engaging board with an dustrldiu.sl,' h'ajd-worng colored man by the name of Cud jo tar kins, who is well known among the tat' and turpentine dealers. . 6n; ': tha wharf, as well as to other citizens in Wilmington. He soon worked ' himself into tbe entire confidence of the family with. -whom be boarded, as well as other well-to-do colored people in the vicinity, and everything seemed to be working to the satisfaction of all concerned-. On or about the 31st of February, while the family were absent from home, Wenlworth entered the house of his landlord, broke opea a trunk and stole a gold "watch" vame(Ta'f1I25, IhVpro perty of Lark ins. He ' soon afterwards offered to pawn the watch with Mr. Mc Intire, a white gentleman of the neighbor hood, who recognized it as belonging to Larkina, and Informed the owner'tbat he (Wentworth) had it.- Larkina immediately started ia pursuit of the thief, and found that ha had taken the train. He pursued, him to this city, and on his arrival here learned that he had departed for Raleigh. Larkina then went to Justice Hill and got him to issue a warrant for the man's arrest, - which was sent to Wake county for endorsement and execution. Wentworth, in the hurry of leaving, forgot to take two photographs of himself, one of which was sent with tbe warrant. After a.week's search Sheriff Nowellof Wake finally came across, the enterprising pedagogue and lodged him in jail, when a telegram was sent to Justice Hill, on Friday morning.an nounciBg his capture. The magistrate im mediately sent the necessary papers toT. J. Armstrong, Esq.,a member of the Legis lature from Pender, and also a Justice of tbe Peace, with a request that he take ihe matter in charge and bring the prisoner to Pender with him, the offence being com mitted i .hat county. Went wot tb alias Duwell is said to have swindled a great many of the colored peo ple of tbe Long Creek section during his short stay among them, and other warrants are expected to be served upon him as soon as he reaches the county. A Sad Case. A colored man was out hunting stock, o something of the sort, yesterday afternoon, in tbe neighborhood of Greenfield mill pond, just south of this city, when he came upon a man of his own race lying under some trees a short distance from the pond, and off from the road The man was help less and apparently in an almost dying con dition, being scarcely able to speak above a whisper. The party who discovered him reported tbe fact to Health Officer James, who visited the spot, saw that the report was true, and then hastened to inform Chief of Police Brock of the circumstance, who in structed Officer James (o take one of the city carts and go after the man, which wasdone, and the sufferer was soon taken to the station house, where his condition was made as comfortable as possible and tbe city physi cian sent for. The poor man says he had been lying ph the ground. where he was found some 'five or six days, during Which time he had been- without both water and food. With much difficulty it was also ascertained from him that his came is Irvin Moore, that he formerly worked with the Messrs. Kidder, and that he has a wife residing in the neighborhood of Ninth and Market streets. The poor unfortunate was ragged, dirty and nearly starved, and also appeared to be very sick with fever.

Editor Review : Dear Sm: In the Review, of the 22d I noticed that you used my name, among others, as a "possible candidate" for Con gress on tbe "d ark horse" plan . , . I write to say that I am not an aspirant or candidate and trust I never will be.. If I wanted the place I would openly enter the lists and contend for the prize. I de spise side-shows and all animals that are trained in the dark. I am a Democrat from principle., and helped to fight the battles of the party In its day of peril and: gloom. I have enough courage nOw to say that I de sire the suceess of the party above all other political considerations, because I kno w that tbe prosperity .of the coun try depends upon such success. J For this reason I am open and outspoken In favor of Maj. C M. Sted mac I am sure that, If nominated, he can and will d bis country faithful service and reflect; , credit upon his constituency. .. My silence shall not be taken as a sanction to the use of my name against the men whose cause I espouse. The first duty of the par ty now is to nominate good men, who can 4e elected and will bestir themselves in be half of that cause on which the hopes of the country depend, and men who; when elected and put on doty, will be found at their post every hour. Henceforth I -desire nothing but the life of a good citizen, advo cating tbe principles and voting the ticket of the Democratic party. At the next elec tion I very earnestly hope for tbe pleasure of voting for Charles M. 8tedman. - : I donbt.not that your reference to mo was in -a spirit of kindness, and while I am averse to troubling tbe public with my name, I cannot be silent when principle and party are involved. Yours, very truly,. J. W. Ellis.
