Our people are frinjIently ge'tl ing shipments of produe from western North Carolith, by way of the Vett ern Extensior Railroad fromt Bridge water to Salisbuty it di.tance of 80 miles, and by the North Carolia lail. road from Salisbury to Chailotte, a diistance of -15 tilit) iihing the dis tance for both roads 123 miLs.

This being the lsat outrage of the kind that has taken pelace in the county, the whole popeulatt ionmnife..t a searching disposition to feret out the guilty party. Politics, it is thought, had nothing to do with the matter'. Mr. K. was a Conservative, but never took an netive part in poli ties It was discovered, shortly after [ts oscurrence, that he had been shiot with his own gun, supposed to have boon stolen from the house while the the family were at supper in the kiteha en. A jury of inueust was empjan. nelled on Sunday morning, composed of whites and blacks, andi after the hearing of the testimnony, a further investigstion was peostponed to Trues day. Suspicion resting upon a col ored boy, Edomn ilammtondi, who had rocenitly bOeen disoharged from the seivices of Mr. Kirkpatrick, and whom the deceased arnrmecd was his murderer, he was arrested by the depu. ty sheriff, on Sunday evening, and lodged in jail. There wtas a grand review of 20, 000 National Ouards held in Bor deaux on Mlonaday, 27th inst. CJrimi eux presented flags to various regi ments and made a speech, in which he a!sured the soldiers that the republic would surely s..t' Frane.
