Borden . , ,The sad but -not altogether unexpected announcement was received here Sunday morning of the death, from paralysis,; of Capt James C Borden, so well and favor ably known in this community, which oc curred at . Goidsboro between 8 and '- 9 a. m. He had tbeeninvery poor health for some months past, but recently it was thought that his condition was becoming more improved. It was only a few days ago that news was received here to the effect that he was better. But the intellh gence on Saturday was such as to preclude alt hope, and all knew that his demise must of necessity prove a question of a very short time., .5 i" j is i ' Capt. Borden was a native of Wayne county and was 56 years old. He acted as a mail route agent on the' W. & W. Rail road just previous to and during the late' war; but finally resigned to join a cavalry company' under , Capt; (afterwards Col.) Thos. Ruffln. Having obtained his dis charge from' the army he was next elected! as Sheriff of Wayne county, which posH tion he held until a short time after the ' war, when he was appointed as passenger! conductor on the W. & W- Railroad, ' which he held, with duty faithfully per formed, until his death. , , Deceased ; was , a , masonic member of St. John's Lodge, of the United Benevo lent Society (in which he held a life policy for $5,000), of the Conductor's and Engi neer's Association, in - which - he was . in sured for $2,000, and of the Knights of Honor,! in which he had a policy for $2,000.

On Saturday evening last a colored man, named John Jones, was cut and -mortally wounded near Lake Waccamaw, on the W., C. & A. Railroad, in Columbus coun ty, ; by a .colored, man 'named Campbell Gaddins . It appears that Jones, Campbell Gaddins and Cross Gaddins had been at Lake Waccamaw together and had imbibed a 'considerable amount of cider, though none of the party was intoxicated. In the evening they started home together, as they- IWed im- eight or each other,' about two miles and a half from the Lake, and on the way Jones and Campbell Gaddins got into a dispute about some old matter of differ ence between them; Cross Gaddins in the meantime being in advance of them. . Bud-, denly a collision occurred between them, during which,; and, before Cross Gaddins could interfere to prevent it, Jones drew his knife and cut Campbell Gaddins across the lower part pf the stomach, inflicting a terrible. ; wound. , The injured man was conveyed to his home, and Dr. Harrell sent' for,: who sewed iip the wound. ' It was not then thought to be fatal, but Sunday night Gaddins --suddenly ', fell ' back1 in bed and died; the knife, it is stated, having pene-' trated avital part. !.
