A mob of 100 men forced the jailer to give ap bis keys and took Burns a short distance away and hanged him to a tree. One night last May young Whitehurst started-from Tuscumbia for Burnsvilleon a freight train. The conductor and his two brakemen raised a difficulty with Whitehurst which resulted in his death. The proof showed that the conductor and Burns, one of the brakemen, shot Whitehurst and then threw him off the train where the wheels would pass over his body, that they might concent their crime.

The Veterans were on time yesterday at the camp and the parade and the donors shown them were the most pleas ant feature of the day. But there was one thing that was not on the bills, at least not exactly as it occurred, and that was a collision between the two lines, the troops and the Vets. It had been understood that a bayonet charge would be made on the Confederate line by t lie Fourth Regiment, Col. Anthony's, who were in blue uniforms, the line to be halted about 20 feet from the old Vets. On they came in fine style, with pieces at the charge, and bayonets fixed, and at double quick, but somehow Gen. Anthony neglected to give the order to halt. See ing that they were about to close with his hue Col. DeRosset gave the order to the Vets to advance anil meet tbecharge.

An Inatltutlon that Cultivates the Mind, Provide all weapon for Life's Battle, and Cilvea the Body fjraceful, Healthful Training. A year ago the Oakland Inn. in Victoria. on the south,side of Asheville.and a little more than a mile from the court house. was opened under fine auspices. It was a beautiful building of the most ornate and picturesoueOuecn Annie stvle. situated oq ground for which nature seemed to have predestined it, a hill slop ing away gradually on every side, so gentle as to admit eusy approach from the main roads from which it was remote enough for quick seclusion, yet near enough for perfect convenience: and vet so high as to give perfect command in nil directions to wide prosiiects, superb and beautiful, of valley extending ' up and down the French Broad and Swannarioa rivers and of Hominy creek ;of mountains close at hand vivid in all the brightness of living green, or of mountain peak or chain failing awav into tlie delicate blue of distance ; of city and mansion, of valley and field and herds nnd flock, and the pencciui lurm house embosomed in its orchard or its groves. Around the hotel were its shades and its girassy lawns and its winding walks; and every ex ternal proclaimed it the ideal of a miict. yet elegant hotel. For within, neither cost, nor taste, nor judgment has been spared to make art worthy of the liber. alities of surrounding nature. Every u- phatice of comfort, every demand til convenience, every call of luxury was prolusely supplied. Wuter, cold and pure was introduced everywhere through the house, was introduced fresh from ample basin which received conious un- contnminted springs u few hundred yards from the green valley below; electric lights, through hall and passaires, parlors and chnmlici-s, made darkness hide itself; furnaces distributed a genial and equable heat everywhere; cool or warm bath refreshed the weary or gave vigor to the strong; elegant parlors, capacious dining rooms, large and comfortable chamliers invited to comfort, to social pleasure or to rest ; and the Oakland Inn, as a hotel, was the peer of any rival. All this is now changed ; only in name and object, however. The Oakland. Institute succeeds to ull the comforts, the conveniences and luxu ries of the Oaklund Inn, without a change of a fixture, without the abatement of a iwihiuh, wmioui me curtailment ot a 1 i .1. l " "ow 01 . . proving ,ooks ol grave prolessors.

Wc had occasion the other day to recall incidentally the stirring times of 1N40 the days of "Tippecanoe and Tyler too." We have temporarily in our possession something that fixes these times as a living reality. It is a badge worn at the Young Men's National Whig Convention, May kh, 1840. The "Hero of Timiecunoc." .mounted on his war horse, is represented, on a medallion, surrounded by the folds of the national flag, and other national emblems, ns in the act of making acharge, sword extended, on the ranks of the en emy, emblematic of the effective charge on his political enemy in the ensuing enmpaign. Beneath arc the camuaiirn emblems, chief of whicb'is the famous log cabin. The budge was exhibited at the Ral eigh exposition in October 18M4 by Mr. John B. Worslcy, then of Greenville, Pitt ' county, now a resident of Asheville," and was probably worn in 1X40 by his father. Mr. Worslcy is probably tlie first North Carolinian who took up arms in tlie Inte war, not in North Carolina, however. He was fn South Carolina when the ordinance of secession was passed; and when troops were raised, he was among those who volunteered in a South Carolina company: Wr. W, G.
