Many of our readers are aware that, several families, formerly living in the lower part ot the county, have recently purchased land in one uR the *'ouuties ol Virginia, where they have settled in the peaceful prosecution of their business. One of these men, Mr. Durslieimer, from Mecliunicsburg, a few weeks ago was hauling home a load of guano; while driving Gong, one of the barrels was stove in the wigan, and a p irt.io 1 o! guano was strewn .1 *ng Hie •-tad. Tilts \as seen by some t.-udditig-head, wiio wisely imagined, from Hs dark color, that it was powder, and irntri' diut ly gave the alarm that Dorsheittfor was hatiiing home nowd-r, v ilh the design of iurni.-hinir the slaves v. ilh uuitnuntlion lor an insurrei ti m. -A ciuoit;; uee waited on Mr. Dorsheimer, \vho o!t ;red i*is ox;*! -nations, and showed 1 11:1111 ihe guao i.

The j first intimation which the family had of tie] horrors which awaited them, was a tow d*y I ago, when one of the children, a ho-,, h,-** , 1 to show symptoms oi hytfropbo.hia, and *.W- . ing otie ot the Jits he succeeded in several wounds u-n the father. I'hysiei.ms : give it as their opinion, that If the hoy’s madness was caused by the use of the milk, of vt Inch -there seems to he no doubt—the w hole family must suffer a horrifife death sooner or later.
