The accident resulted from the failure of the telegraph operator at New Bethlehem to hold the passenger train for orders, as di rected. W are really glad to announce the fact that. Mr. Thomas Carland, of Altoona, who was arrested iu July last In Philadelphia and for some time Incarcerated on the trumped up charge of setting firs to his place of busi ness iu order toobtain the insurance money, lias Just been tried and honorably acquitted, no testimony implicating him in the alleged oft'enee having been forthcoming. This is a triumph of which Mr. C has good cause to be proud, and one which we always felt sure would be forthcoming at the propsr time. Hhonld'ot wonder if he would make it "red hot" now for those who sought either his downfall or his presumed pile of greenbacks. A young lady named P.arto was instant ly kiilsd, on the 22d ult., at Osceola, Clear field county, by I ho accidental dischargu o a revolver. She was searching at tho time in the pocket of a coat, belonging to a yeung man nrvusd Kline for a piecs of toilet soap, and while attempting to reash the soap bsr hatid i sine in contact with a revolver in tlie same pocket, she in the meantime looking into the barrel of the pistol, and her hacd slightly ' relaxing, the hammer, which had been partly sprung by the pressure of her hand, came down with sufficient force to ex plode the cap, the revolver was discharged and the ball entered immediately above oue of her eyes, with the fatal result stated. A corrsspondent of the Irih World, writ ing frors. Flollidaysbnrg, Blair county, says: I Varna to this part of Pennsylvania in 1S30, and (hers was not a church between Harris burg and Pittsburgh, with the exception of a little ens on the fop of the Allegheny Mountains, at Loretto, built by Father Gai litzin, and another at Newry, a little village within three miles of this place. It was named after Newry in Ireland by a Mr. Caasidy, a land surveyor, who had been a sohoo' roaster in Ireland.- At present there are twenty Catholic churches within thirty miles of this place. I am very glad that the Irish World is so much read outside our element and creed. It will open the eyes of some good people to the right side of the Irish qnestion. After the Republican convention ad journed last Monday, Harrison Kinkead. Esq., of this place, was warmly congratula ted by more than one rvral member of the radical party os his nomination for Prothon otary. It is quite unnessary for us to say that a gentleman like Mr. Kinkead, so well and widely known in this county as a firm snd consistent Democrat, could neither re ceive nor ceuld he accept a nomination for that or any other office from the hands of a republican eounty convention. It was his on, D. U. Kinkead. who does not walk in the political footsteps of his father, who re ceived the nomination in question. He is a very respectable young gaotlemao, but stands a much better chance of leiiig struck by lightning thau of being elected to the office of Prothonotary of Cambria county. Under the proper heading we chronicle the death of an interesting little daughter of our worthy friend John I tel. of Washing ton township, which sad bereavement was the result of fatal injuries received on Sat urday evening last, in a runaway accident near M unster. Ths facts as webave learned thm are, that Mr. Itel and his wife, a little daughter snd an intantchild were riding in a spring wagon, at the point indicated, when the horse suddenly took fright ami started off at a fearful rats, not only throwing out the occupants of the wb", but kicking the little girl in the face, thereby knocking one of her eyes cempletely out and etherwise mutilating and injuring her so terribly about the head that she died on Wednesday morn ing following, as announced. Mr. Itel was also kicked on the left leg, between the knee and ankle, receiving a very severe and pain ful injury, which will probably confine him to the house for many days to come. Mrs. Itel and tke infint, strange as it may seem, escaped without injury, a fact which leads us to suppese that they at least were not thiown from the wagon, while it is possible that Mr. Itel and his little daughter also re mained in the wagon, our iuformatioo to the contrary not withstanding, and that the in juries were inflicted while in t hat position. Be that as it may, Mr. Itel and his estima ble lady, who are highly esteemed by all who knew them, have the earnest sympathies of ths entire community in their great bereave ment.

DTSPKrsia Is characterized by a great variety of symptoms, the most premineut of which are pain after eating, belching, heart burn, waterbrash, fullness of stomach, with tenderness, load or weight in that region, debility, Iom of tlesh, despondency, head ache, bad or capricious appetite, palpitation, congh, nervouaness, restlessness, etc., etc. When the disoider is of long continuenee otherorgans of the body soon become affected and the lungs, liver, brain or kidneys fre quently sutler. In fact, dyspepsia is the forerunner of chronic diseases, such as con sumption, scrofula, hemorrhoids, uterine difficulties, celic pains, paralysis, neuralgia, female derangements, nervous spells, weak nesses, etc., etc., ami may be complicated with almost every and any disease. To determine these there is no lietter crite rion than the urinay secretion. By this we are enabled to determine whether It be dyspepsia from liver complaint, kidney affections, nervous disorders, or, iu case of females, from uterine affections, derange ments, or irregularities, or whether these affections proceed from dyspepsia, and to treat the case in accordance with the true conditions, the fixed principles of a science. There is no guess work about it. We have cured hundreds and thousands Of cases of dyspepsia by a single course of medicine; others require more, however, according to the disease with which it is complicated. Dks. Oldshus.
