CAUGHT IN A COTTON-GIN. Isham NT Hoiley, a young man of six" teen, son of Willis Hoiley, colored while pouring up cotton in the gin on Mr. Augustus Hoiley s plantation, ac cidently got his hand among the saws. The gin being run by steam its motion could not be stopped and ere anyone was aware of trouble the young man had his hand and forearm so badly lasce rated as to require amputation. The Drs. Winborn performed the operation. Up to his writing the patient is doing well. The loss of a limb to the laboring man is by no means inconsiderable, we therefore regret this misfortune because its consequent injury is life long and irreperable. Let this, another accident among many of like' character, all hap- ! peniug from like causes cotton gins ! be a caution to others and lead them to ! the exercise of prudential care in their i labors around these instruments, which, i though beneficial in themselves, can be RALEIGH STATE FAIR.
