Mr. Charles F. firoivn Painfully Wounded by the Accidental Discharge of a Pistol. Yesterday afternoon Mr. James Amos, of Wynnton, came hurriedly into the city for Dr. George J. Grimes. He slated that, a sister of Mr. Chns. F. Brown had called upon him to go for a doctor, saying that her brother had shot him self. Mr. Amos was unable to say whether the shooting was intentional or accidental, or what was the extent of Mr. Brown’s injuries. Dr. Grimes went out immediately to attend Mr. Brown, and when he returned to the city he was Galled upon by an Enquirer-Sun reporter. From Dr. Grimes we learned that Mr. Brown was hitching his horse to a buggy. He had a pistol in his coat pocket. When he bent over to pick up the shafts the pistol fell from his pocket. The hammer struck the ground and the weapon was discharged. The ball took effect near the left pipple and ranged upward. What the ex tent of the injury is cannot be told at present. The indications are that the ball did not enter the lung, but it will require a day or two to as certain the locality ofthe ball and the probable effect of the wound. Mr. Win, Brown, of Louisville, brother of Mr. Charles Brown, was telegraphed the new of the sad accident yesterday evening. Mr. Brown is well known throughout the south as the breeder ofthe famous Shawl Neck game cocks, and has a host of frleuda who will anxiously await his re covery. McIntyre k Heath’s Minstrels. McIntyre & Heath’s minstrels will appear at Springer opera house next Tuesday night, Tho New Orleans Times-Democrat has the following to say of them; ‘‘Tbfcre a line house at the Academy last night, and McIntyre & Heath’s minstrels kept their audience in laughter until the curtain went down. In minstrelsy to-day there seems to be a strong tendency toward getting as far as possible away from negro delineation. When the burnt cork profession first started it was to present as neiyly us possible a correct and careful illustration of the eccentric characteristics of the plantation darky. The field wus good, and the tender pathos as well as laughable comicalities of the colored race delighted the theatre-goers of both conti nents. Of late years innovations have crept in. Clog dancing and a hundred other novelties un known among southern negroes havo been intro duced, until now the original idea of minstrelsy is nearly lost sight of. It was, therefore, with much pleasure, last evening, that Mr. Milt. Bar- low’s most artistic charactirization ofthe aged negro was witnessed. Mr. Barlow is move than the mere minstrel. JIo is an actor, and a con summate one at that; and his personation is one that ranks high artistically. If we could have move ofthe old plantation element, such as was so charming in the days of Malt. Peel, 'New comb. Wumbold and others, minstrelsy would gain a new life.” REPORTED DEAD. Two Atroil Citizen* of Runmi‘11 County Hove a Dlf- lieult) Which in Said to Have Proved Fatal to One. The Seale correspondent of the Enquirer-Hun says that ‘it is reported here that Mr. Bingo Thomas and Mr. E. W. Chapman, of Jcrnigan beat, had a personal encounter last Saturday in which the latter was seriously if not fatally in jured.” Both of the gentlemen are very old. Mr. Chapman is the father of Mr. Thomas Chapman, of this rity. It was rumored on the streets yes terday that Mr. Chapman had since died from his injuries, but wc did not learn whether the re port was true. Mr. Thomas Chapman Is not in ' the city at present. Fuels from Fortsaii. j Correspondence Enquirer-Sun. I Foktson, Ga., October 28.—There is considera ble frost here this morning. The mercury stands at 40, and while this would be a delightful morn ing for winter time, it is rather chilling to the system now, because our blood is thin from the summer heat. Everything enjoys the warm and gehial rays of the glorious morning sun. On yesterday morning, for a while, we were threat ened with a black and dreary winter day, but the clouds passed oft'and the sun shone out again in all its wonted splendor. There seems to be no end to the cotton crop. All the farmers say they are gathering considera bly more than they expected to have some time back. Mr. J. R. Thompson was again confined to his bed on yesterday from sickness. Oliver. ON CHANGE. The Trailing Not Intcrfeml With by the Barthol di Statue t nveilliig. New York, October 28.—Notwith standing the general expectation that the Bartholdi celebration would interfere with the business on the Stock .Exchange tlic trading to-day aggregates a larger amount than that ot yesterday and much more character was inlused into dealings. The general market was firm to strong through out the entire day, but this result was ac complished not by purchasers for long ac count, but by a continuance of buying to cover short contracts. Movements in usually active stocks were, as a rule, unimportant, and the Louisville and Nashville, Heading and Mis soni i Pacific were strong on the' covering of short contracts and new buying. The most important movements of the dav were among the new priced stocks, such aa the Richmond and West Point, Norfolk and Western preferred, Hocking Valley, consolidated Georgias, Tennessee. St. Paul and Duluth, and tUe Louisville, New Al bany and Chicago. The Richmond and West Point opened up 2/, made a further net advance of 3.? upon unusual large sales for that stock. The trading wus accompa nied by a rumor that the company had se“ cured enough money to pay the floating debt and collateral trust notes which ma ture on January 1. The advance in Nor folk and Western preferred was principally on the inside, the buying, aided by pur chases for foreign account. The opening was tame and generally heavy, but the changes from last night's figures were for insignificant fractions only. Trading was quiet and the heaviness continued for a snort time, but the market soon rallied under the unusual strength displayed by certain of the specialties. The upward movement was slow but continuous, the only weak spot being Jersey Central, and continued until the close, the best prices being generally reached in the last half hour, while the lowest were made ill the first half hour. Everything except Jfersey Central and Canadian Pacific, which ghow declines of slight fractions, is higher to night. Richmond and West Point leads the list with an advance of 6J, while Hock ing Valley is up 1?, Louisville and Nash vi’le 1A, Chattanooga and Norfolk and Western preferred each ljj, Peoria, Decatur and Evansville lj, Louisville.

Prosperous Condition of tiio Office Under Demo cratic Munagehieiit. Washington, October 23.—In his annual report to the secretary of the interior, the commissioner of patents, M. V. Montgom ery, says the current business of the office is in much better condition than when Secretary Lamar assumed charge of the department. At that time the business was largely in arrears; the average time that an applicant was required to w rit af ter the tiling of his application before it could be reached for examination was live and one-half months, and in some of the divisions he was compelled to wait from twelve to thirteen months. At this time such divisions are on an average, about three and one-third months in arrears and but two are six months behind. He ex pects to be able to bring the work substan tially up to date within the next' few months. The commissioner recommends that some provision of law be made for secur ing from federal courts certified copies of decisions or decrees in patent cases, and that careful amendments be made in the statutes relating to the date of patents, their assignment and record, and to the reimbursement of persons who have erro neously paid money into the treasury for fees accruing at the patent office. The office turned into the treasury dur ing the calender year 1S35 $103,750, making a balance in the treasury on account of patent oilice fund of nearly $1,000,000.
