Sanders & Co., are now selling large quantities for turnips and that they are daily receiving orders for it to be ued upon the next wheat and clover crops. Notwithstanding the strong competition in our market for the past few years iu the Jfertilircr trade, the success and popularity of the Star are unpreeedent, and the sales quite doubled thooe. m( uny other during the past season. The Removal of Stumps A J single fact giveu by General Colquitt, of Georgia, in his speech Saturday last, will be of practical benefit to the tanners of auy section. He said that, to remove stumps from a Held, all that is necessary is to have one or more sheet-iron chimneys, some four or five feet hiuh. Set lire to the stump and place the chimney over It, so as to give the requisite draft at the bottom It will draw like a stove. The stump will soon be consumed. With several such chimneys, of dif ferent sites, the removal of stump Dirty be aeeorupllhed at merely nom inal labor and expense. The Piedmont Section. The ne a'h from this section -of the State is of tho most cheering characters our friends have the strongest hopes of making gains in several counties, We take the following extracts froirt a private letter dated Winston the 2Sih inst : "We are still hi the State aud are still making It lively for the Rads; with the fairest prospect in the world to elect our candidate In Forsythe. Col. Joseph Hasten. Wheeler took the powiUon at three or fonr precllrCU in thecouuty to abolish pell tax.hnt now that he Hods that the Republi cans are opposed tothe 'measure he is denying that 1m ever took the iosition. A large number of affidavits however, from some of the most respectable men" In the county, have been obtained and pub lished, convicting him of falsehood. "Judge Rusfelf passed through hereon Sunday on his return from Yadkin county. He says W . B. Glenn isone of tho most impudent fellows he ever met on the si dm p.

SPECIAL DISPATCH TO NEWS. TAitnoiio, N. C, July 30. A. McCabe, Esq., an ex Federal official, member of the State Senate in 1872 '73,' and at present Radical candidate, for Convention from Edge combe, took offense at some strict ures in the Southerner of this jdace of to-day, and attacked Wat ter P. irilliamson, Editor of the Southerner, to-njght about 8 o'clock, when the latter tired upon him, the ball taking effect in the head below the right eye. C. The Work of Our Street Com missionebs, Commissioner An drews, under the supervision of the Street Committee from the Board hf Aldermen, Messrs. J. C. R. Little, R. It. Jones and Jack Hamill and Stewart Ellison and Jones, col., has been busily at work since his induc tion inte office on the 5th of May last. 1 Kith in the three months that the thoroughfares of this city have been under the management of this Street Committee much decided improve ment has been effected, and we are glad to see it if of that character which guarantees a permanency. The city has effected an arrangement by which as much rock as may be needed for any purpose can be obtained from the State quarry, just east of the city, aud saverat carts are kept busy hauling this rock, which In many cases is broken up and strewn uiou our streets with a view of making a per manent rock bed. Cabarrus street, from the Central Dejot to Fayette ville street, Is being thus bedded, as this is one of the principal thorough fares and if! the winter time often be comes quite bad, and it is intended to continue this worK up Fayetteville from Cabarrus and the streets in and around the Cotton Exchange, and wherever else it may be immediately needed. This will be found of great service during the winter season, and we hope the day is not distant when every inch of the 68 miles of streets Id Raleigh will be thus partially iua cadamized. At numberless intersections of streets and other places stone gutters have been substituted for wooden otiesT and a ride through the city developed but few places where work had not been done. But the principal work, apd what is at present coating the city heavily is the fixing of the ugly place at the intersection of Lenoir and Blount streets, which had been commenced by Commissioner Backalan, and which was absolutely necessary to make those streets at all passable; the aulverting of the branch at the inter sections of West and Johnston streets and the tilling up of these streets at that place, which, when completed willow of great advaufoge to that portion of the city; the completion of the heavy culvert at the intersection of Martin - and Harrington streets, and the building of culverts and dams on North street immediately at the entrance to Oak wood Cemetery This latter work is greatly needed, and rock has been placed on the ground ready for the workmen when the work on the corner of Blount and Lenoir streets shall have been com pleted. It is the intention of the Committee iu every case to use rock instead of wood, which will make their work permanent, and they are determined that during their term of office the streets of Raleigh shall be placed in much better condition and at much loss cost than under Radical rule, and we cnu safely say that under the present management this sub stantial work will be done (and well done) at a great saving to the tax payers of Raleigh over what it would have cost under the old rule. Commissioner Andrews under stands his business, but to Aldermen Little, R. F. Jones a lid Hamill ill our people be greatly indebted for the close personal attention they are pay ing to this work. Let Our Frien ds Work Cheer fully. The friends of Couvention throughout the State have every cause to bend manfully to the work of next week. , There is everything to cheer them. We have information from every sectiou of the Slate, and with but one or two exoejUiouH the Demo crats will hold their own and unite in the honest effort to overthrow that abominable conslltntion which was forced upon us ut the point of the bayonet in lSCS.. i.

The condition of Mr. Merrill, re ceutly so severely wounded at For estville, continues hopeful, but his physician cannot declare him out of dauger for several days yet, as there is always a probable danger in such cases from inflammation and a possi bility of extravasated blood. But his friends sincerely hope he may con tinue to improve aud soon be out again. A North Carolinian Commits SujfiDE. A Petersburg (Va ) dis mleh, under date of the 28th, thus records the unfortunate death of a young man from this State w'io was at the time living in that city : B. W. Avent, a promising young man, commuted suicide this morn ing while in delirium from fever, by jtjmpintr into the Appomatox river. He left his room without clothing, wrapping a sheet over his body, and rau like mad tp the wharf, unmolest ed by the passers by, although it was broad daylight. The body was recovered and sent to his relatives in Battleboro, N. C. Senator Ransom. The Wil mington Star of yesterday haj this to say of this gentleman: Senator Ransom arrived in the city last evening at 11 o'clock from Lum- berton, where he spoke yesterday. This distinguished and beloved citi zen was met at the Purcell House by some of his personal and political friends. His arrival was noted by the slrootiug of rockets. Gen. Jlansom is looking well, not withstanding the arduous labors of daily campaigning he has underta ken. He will address the people of Brunswick to-day at Smithville, go ing down the river to Smithville this morning with a number of friends and admirers in the snug little steam er William Nyce. He will returu to the city ths evening, and will go hence to Rocky Mount to-morrow, where he will speak on Saturday. From there, we understand, he will go to Washington, Beaufort county. Hydrophobia iu Frt.it. Poisonous Peaches in India A Wonderful recurrence at LucWnow. Two nali ve gardeners and a little boy having Uhu suddenly seized with alarming spasms, accompanied by lonmiiiK at the mouth, after eat a quantity ptwhes, the Kntrlishman to whom the -a-h orchard belonged forthwith proceeded t analyze the fruit. To his horror, the juice was found to contain a considerable pro portion of poisonous virus, a. discov ery which naturally led to a close examination of the tree from which the fruit hail been gathered. After in specting the leaves, the branches, even the- bark, with no scientific re sults, one of the examining party suggested that the roots should be uncovered. This being done, the or igin of the poison at ouce came to light. Being anxious to enrich the soilot the orchard, the gardeners had buried dead dogs under many of the trees including.the one on which the deadly peaches had grown. Under Its roots lay the carcass; of a defunct pariah, proved by appearances to have died 6f hydrophobia. After this dis covery there could be no doubt about the source from which the fruit de rived its poisonous qualities. The virus of hpdrophobia had first im pregnated the soil, next the sap of the tree, and subsequently transmit ted itself to the fruit. Yet the poison appears to have lost some of its pow er in transit, since it is related that the three patients "were successfully treated and all recovered." Luck now Correspondent London Aeivs. The London gossips are telling this story, apropos of Queen Victo ria's continued seclusion : At the Princess of Wales' garden partj-, at which she was present the other dty, the Queen accosted a distin guished officer and conversed affably with him for some minutes. At last the gallant General remarked: "lam really very sorry, madam for being so stupid. I ant sure I have seen your face, and remember It perfectly well but T cannot remember your name." A drop of perspiration has caused a terrible explosion in the Pyrotech nic School at Toulon. A uaval lieute nant was filling bottles with' dyna mite, cun cotton and phosphate of calcium, and the story is that a drop of perspiration' from his forehead falling under certain condition, on matter not explosive without con tract with water, produced the catas trophe. At any rate, three persons were kiilled on the spot. Young Grim wood, who was lost with Donaldson, the balloonist, was something of a poet, it seems. He had written several poems, one or. whichhesent to Longfelow.receiyiug' in return a kindly criticism of his ef fort and no little encouragement to further develop his talent for verse making. 1875. An Appeal from an Old Voter. An old Voter of Wake has sent ue the following appeal to the Demo crats of Wake and of the State. Una ble to take an active personal part in the campaign, he believes that every man ought to contribute in some way, to the success of the cause. iW.e give his communication, hoping that its zealous spirit will communicate 1 tself to every reader: For the Dally News. Democrats! Wake up ! Turnout! Work hard! Go to the polls on the 5th of August like true men. Vote the Democratic ticket and save your selves and families from the despot ism of Carpet-baggers, the few de praved natures white and their army of 80,000 obedient and ignorant blacks. If you stay away from the polls, if you refuse to vote at the most important of all elections ever held in the State, you help the enemy to ruin yourselves, and you oppose your friends who are striving hard to avert the dreadful calamity of rad ical rule. the black cloud that is hanging ovjr the white peopleof the State. v Give one day to your counuy. Doni think that there will be enough at the polls without you. Go there yourself. Others may act as you might be disposed tp act. Let none stay away. Remember that Thomas Jefferson ssid that eternal vigilance is the price of liberty. Every man, must be its guardian. ' Our sister States of the South are groaning un der the load of Civil Rights, and negro equality. They are looking anxiously at our old State, always true when duty calls." Don't disappoint them. Come'out, and overthrow this army of tories and jacobins. The Pretoriau Guards were never more hostile to liberty. Come to your Country's call! Save your State ! H. From Sioux City (Iowa) Journal July lti. Struck dead in a Twinkling. De plorable Effects ol a Flash of Lightning from a Clear Sky. While the thunder-storm, of yester day afternoon was ragingat a distance of apparently a couple of miles from this place, a singular fre ik of nature took place in the striking by light-, ning of the depot, and the striking aud killing subsequeutly of J. H. Boyer, the postmaster and black smith of this place. At about 5 o'clock in the afternoon, at which time not a cloud obseured the sky overhead or stood between the suu and the town, a terrible flash of lightning, followed by a deafeniug peal of thunder, struck the wires of the telegraph office and set It on fire. The damage done to the telegraphic apparatus was most complete, the wires being torn to pieces and the different instruments being almost without exception . distorted and broken and completely wrecked. Immediately after the stroke Johu H. Boyer. who was in his shop at the time, rau out in the street toward the depot, where some boya had been playing. He approached them rapidly and said, "Why, boys; I thought some of you had been struck. I was frightened on account of you." He evidently had it in his mind that the terrible shock might have frightened his family, as he started towards his home immediate I When within about fifty yards of the house, from the front window of which his wife was anxiously watching his approach, another vivid flash of lightning dazzled the eyes of all, and ere the thunder had ceased rolling, the naked body of the un fortuuate man was seen to be lying prone upon the ground. A number of people, among them his wife, rush ed to. the spot, and so horrible was thesituatiou that it va9 not until he had been carried to the house that a full appreciation was had of the terri ble death which nature had inflicted upon him. An examination of the body, from which every vestige of clothing, not excluding a pair of cow hide boots had been instantly torn, showed that the subtle and terribly fatal fluid had first struck him on the top of his head, whence, though the skull was left apparently intact, the hair had been burned off'for the space of the size of a silver dollar. Thence the fluid had run down the side of the face, as was shown by a clearly cut track, to the shoulder, and thence to the heart, where it apparently spread ali over the whole body. The terrible power of the fluid was shown by theoresence in the ground on the spot where the unfortunate man's body had been picked up, of a hole eight feet deep by actual meas urement. The clothing of the de ceased was found to have been shred ded, aud when first discovered was on tire, while the silver watch he carried had- been driven into the ground, and when lifted upitwti found that the works had been fused into a lump of shapeless metal. The scene at the house of the deceased, who leaves a wife and three children to mourn his loss, was painful beyond power of words to describe; and those who hud been led to the spot through curiosity could not remain. The affair has created the profounuest sensa tion in the town, where the deceas ed was both loved aud respected by all who knew him iu either public or private life. : On Wednesday last, while fifteen men were engaged in running a thrashing machine, near Alpharetta, Ga.,a heavy cloud and rain came up. and a bolt of lightning struck in the midst of the crowd killing three men outright, and injuring some extent" the entire party, lwo of, the men were brothers, atid were standing oh : each side of their father when killed. the father miraculously escaping, un hurt. In a letter from Loiidon, dated July 11th, Colonel Forney says: liThis is 'midsummer and yet the weather is so cool that such a thing no Mtrnw lint, or linen clothes ik as- rare as they are In Philadelphia in midwinter." A Minnesota i aper made a voucg poetess say : "Oh, for a heart full of sweet yearlings !" The poetess wrote to the editor declaring that she wrote -earnings, anu.lhattheprinter who set it up "yearlings," Was a calf. Three children, who were prostra ted by a stroke of lightning, in Geor gia, that had first struck a tree had: perfect photograhsp of the tree Im printed on their persons. :: The Kentucky election, . for . the: choice of a Legislature, J Governor. and State officers, will take place next Monday.
