Late news received from the wild cat'district

T. J. D. Fuller, Democrat, is elected to Con

Also, that Morrill, sore head Democrat and

Obstructing a Railroad—Stranse Freak.
Paortniw* Oct. 3.—An old. man named
Lyman Hawes committed a strange freak to
day, which caused tmq!nsll e7^i•ement. Ile
, erected a house of board,: on the tracks of the
Providence and'Worcester Railroad. and plaeed
within the same a keg of powder,.and then nail
ing himself in the house, swore that if the trains
fiae mpt ed to run though the building he would
blow all to atoms.—His wild and determined
threats and the obstruction caused a*tention
of two hours. to the trains, but finally a crowd
of about one thousand
. persons assembled and
smashed in the door of the building and seized
Hawes and dragged hint to,jail.
The police speedily dernolisheti the house,
and trains passed on. The excitement
was so great that it was with difficulty the
people ivere deterred from injuring Hawes.
The•reasolf - given for the strange freak is that
Hawes formerly - owned the land through which
the road passes, and conceiving that he had not
been allowed enough for it by the commission
ers, endcav4red to revenge himself in the man
ner stated.
