accounts, was not expected to live. Of the
particulars, we know but little. It seems,
however, that on Saturday night he was at a
corn-shucking, and, it is supposed, drank
to excess—causing him to “get down" on his
road home. When found, he was cold “ thro’

make a note of it and get in town time enough
to see the splendid street parade.

A Terrible Catastrophe.
A MAN BURN IU) TO DEATH IN A STUMP HOLE.
A most awful catastrophe occurred on
Wednesday night of last-week in Dooly comi
ty, near the line of Worth. The unfortunate
victim was Elder Samuel Wright Story, a
Primitive Baptist very highly esteemed. Mr.
Story had been to mill on Swift, creek, and
was returning home late in the evening. He
stopped to wann himself in front of the house
of Mr. Stevens, on the road side ; whereanold
fctump of a tree had been fired, and had burn
ed into a hole. None of Mr. Stevens' family
went out to where he was or pakl tarty atten
tion to his being there. They rmty noticed
that his cart, remained standing an unusually
long time for a person merely to warm. About
ten o'clock at bight, they saw his cart was
still at the road side, and finally Concluded*
to go and see if Anything was the matter. On
arriving at the stump hole a most horrible*
sight was before them. The head and shonl
ders of Mr. Story's body were hung in the
hole and had burned to a crisp. It seemed
as if he had fallen into the burning hole head
foremost. Whether lie had struck his foot
against some obstacle and fallen, or whether
lie had been prostrated from a fit, is unknown.
In either ease, lie was unable to raise himself
put of the hole, and death, in its most terrible
form, put au end to his struggles.
The citizens of the neighborhood were inform
ed of the accident, and assembled to hold an
inquest aud bury the remains. Our inform
ant, Mr. S. P. Wilson, passed the place on
Thursday morning, and a crowd had already
collected for the objects stated.—Uanckins

FATAL EFFECTS OF PORK EATING IN INDIANA.
Indianapolis, Ind., Dec. 17.— Dr. Petty
john, having a medical practice near West
field, on the borders of Hamilton county, some
ten miles north of Indianapolis, day before
yesterday brought Dr. Fletcher, for micro
scopical examination, a piece of pork tender
loin, and some portions of human muscle,
which he believed to be infested with trichina.
It was learned from him that a family named
Beale ate freely of pork tenderloin, and soon
after the entire family had become affected,
some furiously, and one, a little girl, fatally,
with symptoms which he afterwards attribut
ed to the presence of trichina. After the
death of the little girl, he secured a portion
of the gasfcricnemins muscle, also a portion
of the tenderloin, and the specimens were
submitted to a close microscopical examina
tion by both, Doctors Fletcher and Chambers.
In a piece of muscle the size of a pin head,
Dr. Fletcher found twenty of the little ver
mins, of mature growth, and still showing
signs of active life. As yet, only the little
girl has died, but others of the family are
dangerously ill.

in a bale of cotton, and dead, in Fairtttd

All That is Known of Tweed.
No solution of the mystery in regard to the
present whereabouts of William M. Tweed
was obtained yesterday*-, notwithstanding the
continued and combined efforts of both the
police authorities and the officials.
That the flight of the ex-“I>oss” was most de
liberately' planned and carried out with ex
ceeding skill the long time that has elapsed
without his being recaptured fully testifies
to. He Has now been at large over seven
days and the large reward already offeree! of
SIO,OOO, with a promise of an increase of this
amount to s.‘>o,ooo. has had no effect as yet
in discovering thg authorities the actual
place of Ids concealment.. . This shows that
the affection felt for the fallen chieftain by
his. aud former beneficiaries is still
stronger,flum.the power of money. For large
as is. the^re.warA.offered-for information as to
his wherealiofttts, ami utjjm.r^particulars which
may lead to his arrest, no one has as yet been
found bold enough to come forward and im
part this knowledge. It is said in this con-.
necUop ; that who wercnnuleparticipant
ill the plan of flight are deterred from telling
what they know of the transaction by fear
of the odium which would attach to their
names ami persons in case they should- iui
nurt the secret to the police or to the Sheriff.
Then again, it is said, were any one to ‘give
away” the old man, |ie would only do so at
the risk of his own life, for it is no unusual
thing to hear expressions among the lower
class of politicians and loafers around the
city to the effect that if they ever hoard of
any man who was the means of a recapture
being made, they would -show their loyalty,
to their former patron by taking tire life of
his betrayer, and thus prove their gratitude
and affection for the man on whom they fat
tened when he was in [rower and prosperity.
