for the Treasurership of Cumberland coun
ty, accepted a non suit in his mandamus
suit against the present Treasurer and the
late Democratic candidate, Mr. Jno. B.
Troy, Cor the possession of the office of
Treasurer. It is said that Mr. Smith will

Smiths, Jno. R. and Jno. M., voted for for
Treasurer, though there was only one
nominee Smith, and that if the vote of
the two Smiths were combined, it would
elect one of them. Mr. J. R. Smith claims
that as he was the nominee Smith all the
votes cast ior J. M. Smith were intended
for him.

as well as iudicially.
Saturday was a busy day for the Judge
and lawyers, and it was late in the even
ing before a final adjournment was taken.

livery papers against J. D. Breece for the

remembered, sold the buggy but fled be
fore selling the horse, which he stole at
the same time. Breece replevined the
buggy. The trial, which takes place
Wednesday before 'Squire Overby, prom
ises to be an interesting one.

tend the trial as witnesses.
Accident on the Cape Fear.
Friday night at 9 o'clock, the steamer
Hurt, bound for Fayetteville from Wil
mington, ran into two flat boats near
Roan Landing, and was considerably dam
aged. The flats were loaded with brlck
and were on the way to Wilmington. On
the Hurt, which had left Wilmington only
a few hours previously, were a number of
passengers, including Mr. and Mrs. Jas,
Evans, of this city. When the Hurt struck
the fiats there was a tremendous shock, and
it was thought the steamer was wrecked,
but the staunch old boat shook herself and
steamed gallantly to her wharf in Camp
bell ton, nearly ninety miles from the scene
of the collision. The fiat boats were par
tially wrecked, and hundreds of brick sent
to the bottom of the river. Fortunately
not a soul was injured, either on the Hurt
or the flats, though the passengers on the
steamer were badly frightened. The offi
cers of the Hurt claim that there were no
lights displayed on the flats. The Hurt
withstood the shock amazingly well, the
only considerable damage done her being
above decks.
