He found a mile of track unfit for use and ten derailed cars. A transfer was effected and by good judgment and quick work the trains were gotten to running in an incredibly short time considering the nature of the wreck. It was said at the wreck that day that the road could have been repaired in three hours with proper materials at hand and a sufficient force of workmen. Mr. Frank Williams, of the Seaboard, is expected here to-day to joiu his fam ily, who are at Mr. B. F. Withers'.

The fence will be located beyond the entrance to the waiting room, and the street will be used only for persons go ing off on the train. The strip of land the Southern and Seaboard could not come to terms on and thus prevent the expense of mov ing the big press is 14 , feet wide by 150 long. The Southern thought it let the Seaboard too close to the cotton plat form. Mr. Frank Maclain, of .the Carolina Central freight office returns to the city and resumes work to-morrow. 8AILOR&ON DECK.

Yesterday they were making ready their ropes for low ering the different parts of the machin ery. Mr. Elliott had had the pipes, etc., disconnected from the boilers, and other things about the press taken to pieces. Mr. Fletcher had everything coupled up again in order to get up steam so the press can be let down. At present it is up, like it is always left, with a bale of cotton in the jaws."

His decision was no surprise to the session, as the Observer had prepared them for the inevitable, but they, like the town in general, while knowing it was but a question of time when Dr. Boyd would leave Charlotte, neverthe less deplore that the time has so soon come.

Some years ago a child or one of my neighbors was suffering terribly with sore eyes; the eyeballs were red, being very much inflamed, the lids were sore and discharged all the time. The child s eyes had been sore about two months and there was danger of erysip elas. The discharge was so copious they finally got so they were closed all the time. I had so much faith in the virtue of Mrs. Joe Person's WASH that I per suaded tbe mother to use it. We did not use the Kemedy as the child had no disease and only needed the external ap plication.

I.i the Uric Acid Diathesis; in controlling the tendency" to nephritic colic and breaking up the habit of recurrent attacks; in Dyspepsia; ! in Albuminuria (whej-her due to presrnaDcy or other causes), I have found great satisfaction in its use. Indeed, so highly do I appreciate its cflicicnt helpfulness in -the disturb ances of the renal functions, that I regularly prescribe its systematic use, to the exclusion of ordinary drinking water as u preventive of renal complications dur ing the last three or four months of pregnancy, in the cases of all- my patients who can afford it.
