Mr. Perry Rearickand family met
with a serious accident on last Tuesday. I
as he was driving down the lull on tilt |
pike near Col. Josiah NetTV, with horse
and spring wagon. The single-tree com-1
ing loose, the horse took fright and ran:
Mrs. Kearick was the first to fall from
the wagon, striking the ground with her
head and shoulders, causing dangerous
cuts in different parts of her head. The
horse had proceeded but a short distance
further when Mr. Rearieh also fell out.
and landed head foremost; he was also
dangerously bruised about the head, and
both are in a precarious way on account
of the injuries sustained. Mrs. Kearick
held a child in her arpis as she fell,
which escaped without injury. Anoth
er child remained in the wagon, until
the horse was stopped a short distance
further on and was also unharmed.

—This Sute is becoming celebrated for
grape culture. Some of the richest port
in tbe world is produced in New Jersey by
Mr. Alfred Speer, whose name has become
celebrated as a producer of strictly pure
unadulterated wine. Tbo Port Grape
Wine of Mr. Spoer is not bottled or put in
market until it is four years old, and ha*
become thoroughly fine and mellow. It
has proved itself a wonderful assistant l*
physicians, who prescribe it from the faci
that they have hitherto found it diflhult
to obtain Port Wine. This Wine is re
commended for debilitated persons; und is
given to consumptives to use with frcsb
raw eggs, and as a medium for taking cod
liver oil. The difficulty of getting an im
ported or even a pure California Port is
well understood to be so great as to pre
clude Doctors from allowing their patienu
to run the risk of it* use. Air. Speer be
ing aware of this fact has taken tbe utmost
caie in the making of his wine from the
ripest and finest grapes, so as to supplant
the imported wines by producing a genu
ine article, iiis wine# are known by chem
ists to be pure and the most reliable for
medicinal purposes. Tbe Druggist*
throughout the country sell it, as bottled
by Mr. Speer.— Chronicle.

Fur Register.
A few week* ago an article or two ap
peared in your excellent pa: er advocating
very strongly the two term rule, and urg
ing democrat- not to break the custom* of
the party, siting as authority the resolu
tinn of the Lancaster convention, condemn
ing the third term aspiration* of the Presi
• dent, and adhering to the two term rule, tn
that high office. There are great reason*
why to man should be made chief mgis
| trale of the nation, more than two terms,
that do not, and rati not in any manner
apply to any county office. In the one
ce the officer may be ambitious, and
grasp so much after power as to make it
! very dangerous to the liberties of the peo-
I pic to continue hiui their ruler, but this
i- an not apply to any county officer, lie
ha* no 'opportunity to uso power to pro
mote his own aim* or to oppress the peo
ple. Then why rave about the evils of
the third term for the office ot Register?
No harm can e< me to any one by continu
ing a good and iaithlul servant in tnc of
fice a life time
Every body will admit hat Capl. John
II Morrison has filled tho office of Regis
terwith entire satisfaction ; as an officer
he has been faithful, honest, gentlemanly,
; kind and corteous to all that had any ron
: nection with him in a business capacity.
I cannot see why men want to leave
large, rich and productive farms, and
crave an office lhatdoet nothing more than
furnish a living for any ono who may oc
cupy it. People seem as a rule to have a
j mistaken idea <-f the county offices. Let
j him who live- on his farm lay it *ide and
1 fill an office that don't yield over SI2OO or
j annually, and live off the returns of
; the office alone, pay his taxes and'clothe
j his family, by the end of tho year, we ven
. I lure he will be disgusted with the office
j and heartily wih ho was back on the
I farm.
Capl Morrison is poor; he lives out ol
the office, he relies upon it for his living
and has no broad acres to fall back upon
when bis time is out. It is the desire of all
mankind to reward merit, if a public ser
vant has been faithful, it is universally ac
knowledged by the public. Hoinetimesby
bestowing higher honors, and at other
times by continuing liim in the same office.
Let us then democrats, show our ap
preciation of Capt Morrison's service by
giving him another term. Long and well
I has be served the party. At no time did
he f<>r a moment, for-ako the old Demo
cratic but,n r. Ho has <-nrni--l another
term of office, he deserves iL Let us give
it with a willing liund.

Philadelphia politics and politicians
have become so corrupt and debased with
in the last few years that no decent, hon
et or honorable man in or out of the city
could he found to take part in its politic*,
or be in company with its politicians.
That tho great city of our stato should be
di-gracc-d, and its government left under
the control of inen who rob and pfundci
the public, is the regret of every honest
man in tho commonwealth. But there nn
men ail over the state who strive dilligent
ly to follow the foot steps of thoie who rot
and plunder the people of Philadelphia
We have politicians of that class in Cen
tre county, Some arc now seeking a noni

in politics, arid in it, it is fair to resort to

ui nltout 2 o'clock ex-President Johnson
died, at the residence of hin daughter.
Mm. \V. It. Hrown, formerly Mrs. Colo
' nel Stover, in Carter County, from ajtar
' alvtic atrokc. He had been in rather
bad health aince the adjournment of the
last session of Congress, but nothing M'-
rious was antici|aated. *
1-ist Wednesday he took the morning
f train to visit his daughter, with whom
' Mrs. Johnson had Iteen sojourning for
- the past six weeks, lie rvaic in a haik
■ from Carter's depot to her residence,)
some six miles distant, and seemed in
> good spirits on his arrival and cat a
* hearty dinner, and after a few minutes
r of general conversation retired up stairs
' and conversed with his grand-daughter,]
Miss Lillie Stoner. While thus engag-;
s ed his tongue refused utterance, and to
I her great consternation he fell from his
a seat to the floor. Help was instantly
. summoned, and almost us soon as raised
a hecxprr--od, indistinctly, however.that
1 his right side was paralysed. After le
--1 ing taken to bed, when the family spoke
r of sending for a physician he forbade it,
f saying that he would soon recover. On
c this account the summoning of medical
" aid was deferred twenty-four hours.
e when Dr. Jobc was called from Kliza
''bcthtown, two miles distant. He in
( stantly began heroic treatment, aideil hv
j I>r. Cameron, and seemed at onetime;
1 |the next day to be succeeding. The jia-
I tient conversed imperfectly in regard to
. 'domestic matters, and did not seem con
.! scions of approaching dissolution, but
y his case was beyond the skill of physi
r I dans, and at 7 o'clock last night he l>o-
Icame1 came unconsooos. Mrs. Patterson and
" Andrew Johnson, jr., arrived an hour
' later with two physicians from Green-
I ville, Ihirtor-i Brey and Taylor, but lie
did not recognize any of them, and alter
r seven hours and a half of unconscious
ness, he peacefully breathed his last,
surrounded by his wife, children anil nil
his grandchildren, except the son and
daughter of ox-Senator Patterson.

t THE FIRST UMBRELLA IN LON
A DON.
An old English record state* that a* ear
'" ly a* the middle of the eighteenth century
10 some enterprising genius Introduced urn
' ' hrellas at Oxford and Cambridge, letting
I" them out, like sedan chairs, to the studonti
'• nl *0 much per hour, thus enabling poor
I" young men to pas* Bom building to build
ing to their lei-lure* without being drench
-il by rain. But people no more thought
of taking an umbrella about tbo street* of
a town or city, than of taking a bed to
„ sleep In, or a *tove lo warm tbeiiiielvM by,
y as lliey wont about their regular business.
The first pert on who ventured 011 such
r t 'l an innovation was Jonas Hanway—the
v sum- benevolent old gentleman to wh<tae
it exertions England owes the foundation of
" iu "Marine Society," and to whose metri
j ory there Is a monument in YY'eslinlnsier
,t Abbey. Mr. llanway had traveled in
>r China and other parts of the East, where
umbrella* were In general use and having
brought one over with him, as a sort of cu
i rlosity, ha at length determined to avail
himself of iu protective benefits, and tc
Mi one day ventured on the streets of London,
>t bidding "tbe queer-looking apparatus"
over his head, during a heavy rain. Per.
Itaps, it he had known what a shower ol
;> ridicu'o. Slid even abuse, lie was provok
ing. be would rather have faced the rain.
K-r group* f men hustled biiu on thr
side walks, and celled him mad ; women,
*, iroin windows and doors, clapped their
L 'lands and laughed ; and boys in crowds
ran af\er him, biasing, hooting, and even
, pelting him with stones. But they soon
> <r-w tired of such shameful sport, and
*' took it quite as a mailer of course, as Mr.
* Hanway, day aAerday, walked the streets,
umbrella in banff, ui.eihbi in rain or sun-
I shine. Occasionally he inviP-d a Iriend to
shaie bis comfortable shelter, and alt
agreed in iirouounring il very pleasant;
nut *0 afraid were they of ridicule, that it
was more than ibfe# >*-ars alter Mr. lian.
,! way's first experiment before another man
n in London found courage to own or carry
' an umbrella. Jonas llanway died in 1776,
, and for the last thirty years of bis life he
carried an umbrella whenever either sut
or ra 11 rendered one desirable; yet the
I present century had passed more than iu
first decade before the ute of Umbrella* j
1 became gc"wral. t aniuo fl-ipcr Fetldge
