It is supposed that sparks from the locomotive fell through cracks in in the cars, and set fire to the cotton. Between fifty an l sixty bales were destroyed. Tne night express train, which left here on Satur day uight, ran off the .track, when within a short (Us ance of Jacksonville, about six o’clock on. Sunday horning. Several of the forward cars, and the engine and tender were badly damaged. The express car *as next the locomotive, and-was completely wrecked. Mr. William Bowdiif, the express messenger, was in the car, and was badly crushed about the thighs and Women. He was reported as in a critical condition. Ike conductor of the train was slightly injured. The passengers and the remainder of the employes escaped without injury. Mr. Bowdinwas well-known in this city. He be longs in Augusta, and was on the road to Atlanta ibont a year; he canje here about two years ago, and to been on the Gulf road ever since. He was atten- tbe to his duties, and a very fine young man, general ly liked among those with whom he was employed, s ko all sympathize deeply with him in his trouble.

About twelve o’clock on Sunday Mr. Montmollin started in his mule cart to go home, accompanied by Cato, a servant boy, on horseback. He proceeded up the Augusta road quietly enough until he reached the eleven mile 'post. There lie came up * to a negro, armed with a gun, who appeared to be posted on picket.

He had amoved a man, named William Craven, who don kad the warrant issued. On examina- fiiAde promptly discharge ^tOCrayen was fast giving way, and would soon prevent the pu^^ lie from using that road. He offered a resolution, Which was adopted, requesting the President of the Board to address a communication upon the subject to. tflo President of the Railroad Company, and agk that the bridge be fixed at once. Dr. Dupont offered a resolution providing for the appointment of a committee of three, to examine the Skidaway road from the three to the eight mile post,' and report its condition -to an adjourned meeting; of the Board; and also to ascertain whether or not the Shell Road Company had complied with the terms upon which the road was transferred to them. Before the exact purport of this resolution was dis- Icovered, it was passq^i, and the Chairman empowered to appoint the committee.' ’ Mr. Wiltberger demanded that the committee should be composed of persons who ljad no interest either in ithe Shell road, or in that part of it not shelled. Capt. Bilbo was appointed as one member of the [committee, but declined to act. He knew the condi tion of the road without going to examine it, and saw no way to remedy it except for the Commissioners to take back from the Shell Road Company that portion of the road from the end of the Shell to the eight mile post, and keep it in order. If they wore willing to abandon it, the Board could take charge of it. As to whether the Company had violated its charter or not, that question must be decided by the courts. I Aftei considerable discussion, during which mem bers were frequently called to order for speaking when tllere wo&no question for consideration, Dr. J. J.*Waring moveu to reconsider Dr. Dupond’s resolu tion; which motion was carried Mr. Wiltberger, president of the Shell Road Com pany, said that he had expected some kind of a charge (upon the road, and had brought its counsel, J. M. B. I Lovell, there to defend it. He said that the books had been opened to raise money to complete the road |to the eight mile post, but not one dollar had ever been subscribed. The company were perfectly willing to abandon that portion of the road extending from the White Horse Tavern to the eight mile post. He never went down there, and did not know anything about the condition of that portion of the road. If it ]\v»* in bad order, the fact should have been reported [to him. .* cwvci-al members called for the reading of the origi nal resolution bv winch the transfer was made to the Shell Road Company. J. M. B. Loveii, iio representing the Shell Road Com-, pany, said that he woald make a formal abandonment of tuat portion ot tbe road extending from the White ■ Horse Tavern to the eight mile post. He read the statute on the subject, by which the Legislature granted the comp^uytii© right to construct a road to I tbe eight mile post or any intermediate point The company had complied with the statute, and built the read to an intermediate point The citizens had I failed to respond to the call lor funds to carry the road further, and the company would abandon all claim over the remaining portion of the road. Mr. John Schley said that the company had once I built the road to the eight mile post Subsequently it was destroyed and they rebuilt it part of tp Having first accepted the eigh^iqiiepost as the o f terminus, they had na right nor power " to fall back upon an immediate point. . . Alter a long time spejjf in searching, the original resolution providing for a transfer of the road to the company was discovered and read. It provided that i.i case the company should ever abandon the road, it f hould be restored to tho commissioners in good trav eling condition. Mr. Lovell said that the company would comply with that requirement, if granted a reasonable time. Dr. Dupont said that the commissioners could only take bapk the whole road. He offered as a substitute /or his resolution another providing for a future meet ing of the Board, to hear legul argument on the sub ject, and that, in meantime, a committee be ap- i pointed to examine and report upon the condition of the road. Judge W. T. Gibson offered a resolution providing that'the control of the road, beyond the four mile post, be assumed by the Board of Commissioners, pro vided that the Shell Road Company execute a legal relinquishment to that portion of the road, and that they be given three months from the first of January next to put the road in good condition. This resolu tion was carried, and t4® matter ended. Mr. Symons asked for an'appropriation ot $ 100 to repair the bridge leading to Skidaway Island. After’making estimates of the amoxuitsQf money required to keep the various roads in the county in order during tho ensuing year the Board adjourned.' The Skidaway Shell Road.—The action of the Board of Road Commissioners, a report of the pro ceedings of whose meeting will be found elsewhere, will be viewed with surprise by many of our readers. After a discussion of the matter, during which it was represented that all that portion of the road, from the four mile post to the Isle of Hope, was in a very bad condition, never having been mended since the war, and with the duty of the Shell Road Company clearly apparent, either to shell, or at least to keep the road n order, the Board consented to take that part of the road back upon its hands again.' The Shpll Road Company having gone faf enough to levy a toll, cai-ed not for the balance of tbe highw&y, and was very wil ling to relinquish* its'claim. Haying once shelled and taken possession of tfi’e road *° tbe eightmile post perhaps a Court of law. can decide whether or notit can, upon rebuil}ngi£s eheU road, ftopjtt an in termediate point/vm charge-full rates of toll to those who use the thoroughfare. It was stated that persons residing at Isle of Hope, and other points at-tliat end of the road, were allowed to commute, and the toll, in such cases, was fixed at an exceeding low rate. But it is not the citizens re siding at those points that particularly urge the injus tice of the present rate of fon. It Is the citizens of Savannah, many of wliom never nso thfe road because of the high rates of toll—just' four times the sum be ing charged that shonld be, for tho road to make a good, fair and reasonable profit. At the nresenf exor bitant toll, a short, daily driv^ for exerojse or health, would cost in tb e neighborhood qr seventy or eighty dollars a year—more than some' people can afford to spend in such a manner.

The colored boy, Cato, begged Mr. Montmollin for God’s sake to turn back, as it was plain to be seen that the negroes had come out to kill him. . By this time he had nearly reached toe twelve mile stone, when the road sudden ly became black with negroes, armed with Enfield rifles and revolvers, hatchets, axes and knives. A small house by the roadside was filled with them, while in the rear of the wagon another gang had sprung from the cover of toe woods into the road, and captured the boy Cato, who was riding behind. Mr. Montmollin had no weapon with him, except a small pistol, and' he took that out of his pocket determined that if he was to be killed, one of the murderous party, at least, shonld pay the penalty of the act. The negroes appeared to be under regular military organization. They had a Colonel, a young, dandified, ■villainous looking black, who stepped into the. road . and commAnded Mr. Montmollin to halt He stopped and saluted the “Colonel” with “good morning.” The “Colonel” said—*‘I have brought my men out here to have satisfaction out of you.” Mr. Montmol lin raid—“What have I done ? To this the “Colonel” replied—“Yon Bhot a gentleman.” He answered— “I shot the biggest thief in the county.” The “Col onel” said—“You had no business to shoot him.” A tall, coal black negro, mounted on a mule, acted as a Lieutenant of the forces. He, at this juncture called but—“Come men, by two’s into two lines,” anfl they then formed on each side of the road. Mr. Mont- ’mollin had his -pistol in his hand, and said'to the' “Colonel”—“I Suppose that you are going to kill me. It’s no use for you to do that. I did shoot the thief; .and can and will kill one of you.” The “Colonel” jab bered away for some time, and told Mr. Montmollin that they knew he had but one pistol, and that they had secured his rifle from the man with whom he left it. Cato here came up, and begged them to spare his master’s life, and to do mm no harm. After a whis pered consultation among themsel res th«- “Colonel” got up on the seat of the cart besidi : Mr. Montmollin, and placed-two men in the hack part of the cart, or dering them to keep their revolvers constantly point ed at Montmollin. He was then told to drive forward, and started toe mule, the* other negroes surrounding the cart, and marching along with it. About a mile up the road they met a cart containing a number of negroes who appeared disposed to drive on, but were stopped by the “Colonel,” who invited them to j6in his men. The negroes drew off to one side of the road, and held a long consultation; they appeared to quarrel among themselves, and, judging by their ao- tiona, Mr. Montmollin concluded that one party want ed to shoot, while the other fevored releasing him. While engaged in this pow-wow the negroes amused themselves by cocking and aimingtheir guns at him. : At length they came up to him ana told him to drive off home; and, glad to escape, he was not long in reaching that point. Shortly a ter reaching the house, (it then being dark) Cato came in and reported that toe negroes were marching up to the place -aud deolaring that they would kill Mr. Montmollin. Taking his rifle and axe he left the house with Cato, got out the mule cart, and as the negroes were on' tbe high’ road, they took to the woods, traveling part of the way on the old road bed of the Savannah and Charleston Railroad. £t was very cold and they suffered exceedingly, finding that they had escaped, the negroes started tfl pursuit, and they were compelled to PU*h toward without stop ping, in order to secure toeir lives. About daylight yesterday morning they reached the city, feeling that they had had a most providential escape. This outrage upon a, citizen upon one Of the most frequented of our public! higbwtya, proves conclu sively the existence of s& organization and a settled purpose on toe part of the-uegrqea in the oounty to bring on a war yrito toe whites*. Mr, Montmollin does not know hut what some injury was done to Walls, with whom he left one of his rifles, as the negroes said that they had that weapon. It is time that measures were taken effectually to stop these systematic out rages, and to let these scoundrels know that they are not masters of the laud.

DIED, in this city, ch Monday, Oct. 19; 1S6S, cf ty phoid fever, Elixn Theresa, beloved,wife of Jas. F. Turner, daughter of-James amTBirbary Stratford, of Louisville, Ga., aged nineteen years, one month and five days. ' Truly are we told in Holy writ that the Lord knows who are his own. They who are the Lord’s, show themselves such in their life and conduct amongst' men. So was it with the subject of the above sad no- ce. From her earliest youth, she gave evidence, by a wisdom and piety beyond her years, that hers was indeed a chosen soul. Her ready obedience, sweet axid gentle manners, and lovely simplicity,, mingled with becoming timidity, won all hearts, and gave ear nest of what her pious and God-fearing parents might expect in maturer years. Her girlhood hut confi med and developed the good qualities ana virtues of her infancy, so that, when at toe early age of eignteen, she was coiled by the Providence of too All-Wise one to become a wife, she was found frilly equal to the ardu ous duties and weighty responsibilities of her new sphere, and so well did she, though so young, under stand those duties, so fitithfully fulfill tho-m, <h«t everyday endeared her more and more to her fond husband, and increased his appreciation and admira tion of her as the perfect model of a Christian wifo. The practice 6f her holy religion was as a portion of Tier life. Love through God, its author, was clearly source and mainspring of all her words and ac- uons. Thus richly endowed with Grace by her Maker, tons faithful in correspondence with it, what promise did she not give of glory to God, and usefulness to her fellow-beings. Bnt God, whose ways are truly inscru table, for His own wise purpose, willed otherwise, and this Angel in woman's form was taken away to toe very morning of her beautiful and holy life, in toe very flower of youth. Ah! doubtless God saw was enamored of so pure and faithful a soul, and earth unworthy of so bright a jewel. Or, mayhap, toe Omniscient saw that the lustre of her spotless soul, woul4 become tarnished by continued contact with a wicked world, and hence, as we read in the Book of tom (c. iv, 2), “Shewas taken away,lestwicked- - should alter her understanding or deceit beguile souL” Especially seeing that, as the wise man adds: “She had, in a short space, fulfilled along time, therefore did God hasten to bring her out of the midst of iniquities.” We are sure, we but echo the unanimous voice of those who knew her during life or were witness of her holy and edifying death, when we express the wish, that our last end may be like unto hers. How forcibly that last sad yet consoling scene reminds us of God’s solemn declaration, “ Pre cious in the sight of tho Lord is the death of his Saints.” Requiescat in Pace. Aman : . JL Amebicus Catholicus. ELLEN THERESA, WIFE OF JAMES F. TUBNEB, Of Savannah. I Sleep, beautiful friend of my childhood, Sleep in thy youthful tomb ; Jesus hath lain there before thee, And conquered its terror and gloom. Rest, may the brown leaves of autumn Rustle softly down o’er thy bed. And chant with the breezes of twilight A requiem meet for the dead. May the glittering jewels of evening Their silent watch o’er thee keep. And the morn pour a flood of her glory O’er the spot where our darling’s asleep. Best, with thy pale waxen fingers, Clasped tight o’er thy icy cold breast; Thine eyes, that have oft danced in gladness. Are set, and forever at rest. Best, beloved friend of my childhood, Rest calmly in thy narrow bed; And you, ye pale flowers of autumn, Keep watch with our beautiful dead. Keep watch with too moon of still evening; Keep watch while the young stars are born ; Keep watoh till the Day God of Glory, Kisses the bright cheek of fair mom 1 Emma Pannell. Louisville, Ga.

GUANO DIFFERS from PERUVIAN GUANO simply in the RELATIVE PROPORTION of the 8A3IE elements of fertility. Its use during too past four years for the culture of COTTON and com, has given to it a character for standard excellence unsurpassed by genuine Peruvian Guano, and when seasons of drought intervene, it produces a large increase of crops. The price at which this Guano is placed is so much below that of Peruvian Guano as to constitute it an object of material importance to Southern agriculture. The large capital and resources of the Company ena ble it to furnish a Guano of toe highest value at the lowest possible cost to consumers, and the highest in terest of the Company is recognized in this policy. ' r The Company looks to large sales, small profits and a permanent business for compensation on capital invested. D. St. Julian Ravenel, of South Carolina, is Scien tific Director of the Company, which affords a sure guarantee of the continued excellence of the Guano.
