clever, and when I axd ’em over to my Lus
ter cornsliuckin they promised to come, and
Mrs. Arp has been a cookin for ’em
all day and we are goin to liave a whole dead
nig and a bushel of tater* and a bushel of
Liskits and some fried pies and coffee and
all sicli. and the ole timedarkeys are goin to
sing and carry me round the oom pile like
they used to do and then V
little Luster speech and talk kindly and hurt
no feel ins, and next week old Peckerwood
to have a Felton shuckin and a Felton
peech, and nobody is to git mad, for the old
man says its mighty wrong to let politics
break tip tlie jNace of u ucighborlmod. All
that* very good, and I wish everybody wa**
a* clever as Peckerwood, but you see no
body hollers hurrah for Luster around
and the other day* a big man with blue
lothes on come dash in down tlie hill drivin
mule and the mule stopi*ed sud
denly in my branch to drink and liked
to have throw*! him orcr the dash-board and
lie larruped him with a thrash |»le and
hollered out, “git away from here you
tiumetl old son of a gun; I tried to git you
to drink lack yonder at Felton’s branch
and you wouldn't, and now you shant drink
any of Bill Arp’s water you durnd old Lus
ter cuss—git away from here. 1 say” and lie
haled him all the way up tlie hill ami the
licks seemed like claps of young thunder.
The like of this was a prey in on my feel*
and so wheu 1 heard of the big jubilee at
Silver creek I picked up and went and I feel
like a new man and Ive assoomed a fitin at
titude and if auolher man conies along
and wont let a Luster mule drink
water out of my branch 1*11 attack
him headforemost on the highway
11*11 rock hint with rotten apples, and
he gets out of his buggy. I’ll set two Luster
Kg* on him. See if 1 don’t. Ive heard Gen.
iorelon tell all about the rottenness and
meanness of these iiide)iendent candidates
ami their radical allies, and l’iu not a goin
to take nothin no more from none of em—
would you? You see the supreme court hav
decided that the road over my laud is tuy
road, and the public have tlie right to pass
over it, and nothing more,and they must do
il and (icaceable manner, and not
ing tlie estates; Frederickstadt lias been re
duced to aslies, and several leading planters
have been murdered. Tlie governor lias ar
rived from St. Thomas. Only fifty soldiers
are available. In the engagement at the
Unashope estate the negroes were routed and
two hundred of them killed. The town of
Basson is threatened, but is yet safe. Eng
lish and French frigates are daily expected
to arrive.
THE EXTENT OF THE INSURRECTION.
Washington, October 4.—The govern-
ent lias official information of the exis
tence of an insurrection at Santa Cruz, bat
the advices say nothing regarding tlie num
ber of lives supposed to be lost. Santa
Cruz is embraced in the consular district of
St. Thomas, under the jurisdiction of Con
sul V. S. Smith. According to the latest
ports received at the state depart
ment here, the mob have suc
ceeded in -capturing and destroying
the town of Frcdericksted. There is
United States consular agent resident
there, and it is sumioscd his house ha* been
destroyed with others. All tlie help availa
ble lias been sent from St. Thomas by the
Danish authorities there. No reason is
known for tlie insurrection, a* it is supposed
that the Danish authorities have been very
mild towards the inhabitants.
In addition to tlie Plymouth, sent in tlie
afternoon from New York, for the protec-
of the American citizens in Santa Cruz,
navy department lias also ordered a
vessel from the West India station, the one
nearest to the disturbed region, to hasten on
the same mission.

A FEARFUL ACCIDENT.

Condition or the Wounded Man,
Yesterday morning as the four o’clock
freight train was coming in on the Western
and Atlantic railroad, Charles Freeman,
Chattanooga, a young man, about twenty
years old, was acting a brakesman.
As the train wa* passing under tlie bridge
on Jones avenue, in the first ward, thc whis
tle blew for brakes. Young Freeman at
once mounted on the train and Itegan to tmt
on the brakes.
As he was at work the train passed under
the bridge. The man wa* looking straight
forward. It was dark, and he did not see
that tta bridge wa* so low a* to strike his
head.' Tlie train sjied on at the rate of
twelve miles an hour, and suddenly the
poor fellow was struck
A FEARFUL BLOW
on tta forehead. A beam of tta bridge
struck him just below the hair, and the skin
of his forehead wa* torn off a* cleanly
if it had been scraped with a knife.
He displayed wonderful nerve and pluck.
After this fearful wound aud iLs stunning
effect lie ruse and walked the whole length
of the long train perfectly conscious aud
Meeding profusely. As soon as the train
stoptied he wa* taken to the boarding house
of Mrs. Dougherty.' near tlie Western and
Atlantic railroad dejiot. Dr. Willis West
moreland wa* summoned to his aid and at
once performed a very skillful *q*eratior. on
the wounded skull. The suffering man did
not take anything to relieve Lis pain. He
tare it like a man all tlie way through.
The skull is fractured to some extent, but
under-the able treatment it is receiving, tlie
danger is not imminent.
