Some one standing by saw the point of the sword blade, and the fearful nature of the wound he had received was soon ascertained. Doctors were snmmoned and the blade was extracted by means of a pair of blacksmith's pincers.

The wounded man is a son of Mr. Perry James, a prosperous farmer of Sampson, living near Clinton. The horse on which Col. Jones was mounted was a spirited young animal belonging to Capt. Faison, who had recently purchased it.

RaleighiVews- Observer: A friend writing us from Plymouth with reference to our article of Sunday, on the charge at Gettysburg, gives us the following bit of information: General Lewis A. Armistead, who commanded one of the brigades that were in the charge, and who is claimed as a Virginian, was the son of General Walker K. Armistead, of the United States Army, and Elizabeth Stanly, of New Bern, N.C., and was born in New Bern February 18th, 1817. His brother. Frank Stanly Armistead, was a Colonel, commanding at the close of the war a North Carolina brigade, to wnicn uoi.

Hinsdale, Judge Clark, Col. iseasley and others belonged. So General Armistead's mother was a native North Carolinian and of the honored family of Stanly, and General Amistead himself a native of New Bern, in this State.

But of Mrs. Wlnslow's Soothing Syrup we can speak from knowledge: in our own family it has proved a blessing Indeed, by giving an infant 'troubled with oolio pains, quiet sleep, and the parents unbroken rest at night. Most parents can appreciate these blessings.

Here ia an article which works to perfection, and which is harmless; for the sleep which it affords the infant Is perfectly natural, and the little cherub awakes as "bright as a button."

The delegations from this city to the railroad celebration at Clinton returned home yesterday morning.

One and all speak in the highest terms of the hospitable and cordial treatment received from the citizens of that charming little town. The trip was a most enjoyable one, only marred by the accident that befell Mr. James, one of the marshals. The Light Infantry and the members of the Cornet Concert Club were especially well pleased at their recep tion and the attentions shown them by the members of the Clinton-company and citizens generally. The ball at hight was a brilliant affair.

The spacious hall was filled with a brave gathering of gallant young men and beautiful women, who kept up the dance. Mil morning. Messrs. John A. Stevens, F.
