Shocking Accident.
We learn from' the Altoona Tribune, that
on Saturday night, 18th inst.,
at about
9.50 P. M., a young man, named Malcolm D.
lloesh, residing at Elizabeth Furnace, met
his death in a shocking manner, by being run
over by the Fast Passenger Train Westward,
near the old Water station, about a mile and
a half east of this place. He was lying on
the track, from some unknown cause, and
was not perceived by the engineer or fireman
of the train. They saw something dark on
the track, but not looking like a Man they
supposed it to be a pile of cinder. The de
ceased's head was completely severed from
his body, which was mangled in a most shock
ing manner. The deceased was not identi
fied until after the jury had rendered a ver
dict and his body had been sent to the county
Poor House.
CORONER'S INQUEST.
About 10 o'clock, A. M., on Sunday, the
Coroner, Jas. Funk, Esq., arrived in Altoona
and summoned the following jury : W. M.
Allison, Price M. Johnson, George B. Cra
mer, Charles B. M'Crea, John Trout and
James Kearney, who after being duly sworn
according to law, proceeded to examine the
body, which had been brought to town and
was then lying in a baggage car at the depot.
[Several witnesses were examined, but we
have only room for the following:]
Dr. d. J. Hirst, sworn:—Was called to examine body of
unknown man, lying dead in baggage car; did so; found
hole about 2 . l A . inebes in length in anterior part of skull, a
little to left of medium line; also fracture on back part of
head, about ono inch in diameter; through these holes most
of brain has been pressed out; the head was severed from
body; left collar bone was dislocated; loft shoulder blade
fractured; left arm bone broken in two places immediately
below shoulder joint; left arm very much bruised imme
diately above wrist joint ; thumb and fore-finger of right
hand torn off; wrist joint and balance of hand considerably
injured; a number of marks and bruises on body between
shoulder and pelvis, would not be fatal; left leg near hip
joint broken in two places; loft and front part of pelvis
crushed in ; right side of pelvis fractured; wound about 1
inch in length on right side of medium line of abdomen,
resembling somewhat a gun-shot wound, but might have
been made by fractured bone inside; left leg broken above
allele, in two places, with bone protruding; little too of
right foot broken ; bodies generally remain warm for one
or two hours after death; such wounds as I have described
could have been inflicted by cars running over body; no
wound seems to indicate the previous murder of deceased;
had the throat of deceased been cut previously to body be
ing placed on the track, but little blood would have been
found on cars; if killed without loss of blood, and blood
had not congealed in body, it would necessarily have been
tl,reed upon the cars by the great pressure; could not state
positively whether deceased was intoxicated or not; the
body is now in a state of decomposition and emits an un
pleasant odor which would overcome any smell of liquor;
persons of acute perception might distinguish the presence
of liquor immediately after death, before the body had be
come Poll; liquor not always perceptible after death, ,es
;axially where the head had been severed from the body,
which would allow smell of liquor to escape; the head be
ing severed from the body and the upper part of chest ex
posed, would cause body to cool much quicker than if
b , cly were compact.
- In accordance with the above facts the Jury
rendered a verdict " that the unknown man,
(since identified as Malcolm D. Hoesh,) came
to his death on the Pa. It. R., near the old
water station, about 1,1- miles east of Altoona,
by being run over by the Fast Passenger
Train, Westward, on the evening of Saturday,
July 18th, 1857, about 9.50 o'clock, P. M.,
the said unknown man having been lying on
the track from some cause unknown to the
jury."
Considerable suspicion of foul play having
been committed existing in the community,
from the fact that the blood on the ballast
and ties did not seem abundant enough for
such an accident ; that the body was not very
warm when found; that an intoxicated man
could hardly have crossed the open bridge
on this side of the spot, and the 'contradic
tory statements of the occupants of a house
in the vicinity, where an illegal traffic in
liquor was carried on, led a. number of our
citizens, in company with Esquire Douty and
Good to visit the spot, and examine the occu
pants of said house, on Monday morning.—
The woman whose looks are by no means
prepossessing, was very excited and impu
dent in her answers. Said her husband was
absent on business and would not be home
for some time. That he had seen the dee'd.,
and that he was very drunk so that her hus
band had. to help him over the bridge. Pro
tested their innocence of his murder, with
out any body's hinting at it, and made quite
a number of contradictory statements. She
was evidently the worse of liquor. On search
ing the house her husband was found in bed.
They were then examined separately. The
woman all the time tried to get within hear
ing; of the man. The following is their evi
dence:
Henry Marebangh, sworn.—Saw deceased about dusk ;
not quite dark; saw hint after Fast Line train had gone
down; may be half an hour afterwards; I walked faster
than the deceased and gained on him; he staggered and
seemed very drunk; did not help Ides over the bridge;
watched every - step expecting hint to t - :111 through ; alter
he was over thought lie was safe :nfter he got over I went
into the house and went to bed ; when engine came down
afterwards, I got up mid looked nut; deceased had no bun
dle nor stick ; tlid'nt know anything about it till next
morning, when Peter Hemplield a boys told me; went to
bed this mourning became I w,as eirk With pain in stomach ;
deceased was nut in house at all ; did nut speak to him at
all.
Susanna nitrebartgh, sworn.—Never saw man; was not
in house; husband was unt at home on Saturday night;
don't know what tints lie came home : some of the children
were in bed; John Hempfield was the lost man in house
that evening; Doug. McCartney was fishing in neighbor
hood and was in the house just before dark; my husband
is very often sick; no man in house on Saturday except
McCartney; could not see man on railroad on Saturday
night; did'nt see my husband till he came on porch ; was
doing nothing on porch when bo Caine; went off to bed
immediately; Hempfield had left before my husband came
home; heard man was killed after breakfast next morning;
not before; husband told me ho had heard engine down
and supposed something was wrong; went out and looked;
saw blood and brains on track; (showed spot where seen.)
It is considerably contradictory in its char
acter, hut we suppose that is accounted for
by the fact that liquor was sold by them, and
they were afraid of being returned, and they
were very "dutch," and consequently easily
scared. Thence they naturally enough talk
ed at random trying to conceal as much as
possible. They denied selling liquor and yet
a barrel of it was found in the house. Deem
ing it useless to attempt anything further the
majority of the party returned to town.
We don't think the deceased was murdered,
or if he was, at least not by them. That
they know more about him than they acknowl
edge we have no doubt. We believe he was
in their house on the night of his death.—
The fact that they sold liquor renders this
highly probable. If drunk, he got his liquor
there and was by them helped across the
bridge, shortly before the cars came along.
They might even have robbed him of what
little money he had, as when he left home be
had between $lO and $2O, and when Ireumi
his port-monnaie contained only 4 cents.--
There is a mystery connected with the whole.
affair, which time may or may not unfold,
but we don't believe the man was murdered.
We can't account for his being on the track
just at that spot, when he had time, if Ware
baugh's to be believed, to have reached Blair
Furnace, which he could have done, if he
crossed the bridge alone. But it is evident
that neither of the Warebaugh's are to be be
lieved. They denied all knowledge of him,
we have no doubt, for the purpose of escaping
an indictment for keeping a tippling house.
The British Government has granted
to the widow of the late Hugh Miller, a pen
sion of £7O per annum, in consideration of
Mr. Miller's services to literature.

Is the Moon Inhabited!---Recent Disoov-
ery by the Astronomer Hansel
It has long been known that the moon re
volves on its axis in the same time in which
it revolves round the earth, and that it con
sequently always presents nearly the same
side towards the earth, while the other side
is•never seen from our globe. No bodies of
water nor clouds can be seen on the moon by
the aid. of the most powerful telescope, nor
is the apparent direction of stars close to its
edge changed by refraction, as would be the
case if an atmosphere enveloped the moon.
Hence it has been inferred by Wheweil, the
reputed author of a late work entitled "Of
Plurality of Worlds," that the moon has no
atmosphere or water, and, consequently, no
inhabitants.
-This inference is shown to be inconclusive
by a recent discovery of the astronomer Han
sel, whose study of the moon's motion, con
tinued for many years, has established the
fact that the centre of gravity of the moon,
instead of being like that of earth, at the
centre of figure, is beyond that centre, and
farther from the side next to the earth than
it is from the other side by seventy-four miles.
The nearer side of the moon, therefore, is a
vast, expanded protuberance or mountain,
seventy-tour miles high; and any fluid, whether
air or water, would flow downwards from the
nearer to the farther side of the moon, where
for aught we know, intelligent living beings
may exist. The nearer side of the moon can
not be inhabited, at least by beings to whose
existence air and water are essential as it is
the case with all terrestial animals.
The late celebrated mathematician, Gauss,
proposed as a means of settling the question,
whether the moon is inhabited, that `a huge
monument should be erected on the steppes
of Siberia, as a signal to the inhabitants of
the moon, in the hope that they might be in
duced to erect a similar signal to apprise us
of their existence. The discovery of Hansel
shows that such an experiment could be at
tended with no success, inasmuch as the in
habitants of the moon, if there are any, be
ing on the farther side, could not see a mon
ument on the earth.
It may not be uninteresting to add, that it
has been discovered, within a few years, by
means of long continued, hourly observations
with the barometer, that the moon exerts an
appreciable influence on the pressure of the
atmosphere; and also by means of long-con
tinued magnetic observations, that it exerts
an influence on. the declination of the mag
netic needle.
LOST Luce AGE .—People in the United States
arc rather careless of their lives when travel
ling, but they area
s great deal more careless
of their luggage. Every railroad company
has a depository, in which are placed all the
trunks, boxes, carpet bags, and parcels that
are not claimed by passengers, and these ac
cumulate with surprising rapidity. Under
the law of New York, all such unclaimed ar
ticles may be sold when they have remained
on hand more than a year, and the New York
Central Railroad Company announces such a
sale to take place at Albany on the 18th of
August. They advertise a list of no less
than two thousand one hundred and six arti
cles that had accumulated during the years
1852, 1853, 1854 and 1855. In these . are'
comprised trunks, boxes, chests, portinan
teaus, valises, carpet-bags, band-boxes, hat
boxes, bags, bundles, and packages of every
size and description. About one half of these
are not marked in any way, while others are
only marked imperfectly by initials or ciphers.
The aggregate value of these articles and
their contents must be many thousands of
dollars. On all the railroads of the United
States there must be annually some hundreds
of thousands of dollars worth of personal
property lost or abandoned in this way.
.I.IOIV TO MAKE TEA PROPERLY.—The proper
way to make a cup of good tea is a matter of
some importance The plan which I have
practiced for these twelve mouths is this:
The tea pot is at once filled up with boiling
water; then the tea is put in the pot, and is
allowed to stand for five minutes before it is
used ; the leaves gradually absorb the water,
and as gradually sink to the bottom ; the re
sult is, that the tea leaves are not scalded, as
they are when boiling water is poured over
them, and you get all the true flavour Of the
tea. In truth, much less tea is required in
this way than under the old and common
practice.
xte —Humphrey Marshall describes the
American party as "a broad and quiet river
that takes its noiseless way through the plain,
diffusing fertility and beauty on all sides,
and losing itself only in the expanded ocean
of the nation's weal!" An ex-know-Nothing
"friend of the Louisville Democrat says that,
according to his experience, it is like a coun
try road he once traveled, which, at the start
was broad and plain, straight and smooth,
promising a pleasant journey and speedy ar 7
rival at the desired goal, but soon began to
twist around fences and wind through the
woods, becoming less distinct at every step,
until, at last, it ended in a rabbit track, and
ran into the ground.
LEMON JUICE IN DROPSY.—Lemons are
recommended for dropsey in a Russian Med
ical Journal, and are said to be beneficial in
the most hopeless cases. The first day one
lemon was taken, after taking the peel off,
and cutting it up into small pieces, in sugar;
the two following days three were given, and
afterwards eighteen every day. For nour
ishment meat was given. In every case the
water came off on the seventh day.

PHILADELPHIA MARKETS.
SATVILDAY, July 25.—1 n the Flour market there is no
change to notice. The article is dull, and the tendency of
prices is evidently in favor of buyers. Only about 900
barrels were disposed of at $0,3714@7 %l barrel for standard
brands, at which figures it is freely offered, and $7,50 for
extra, including 750 barrels at the latter rate. Small sales
to the trade within the range of these figures for superfine,
and $7,75 up to $0,50 for extra and fancy lots. Rye flour
is steady at $4,75. Corn meal is very quiet-110 barrels
Pennsylvania sold at $3,90 a barrel.
GRAIN—The receipts of new Wheat aro increasing, but
the demand for it is limited, and prices aro again 203 c.
lower. Sales of 2300 bushels good and prime red at Sl,BO
@1,86, and 300 bushels good white at $1,93 a bushel ; 2200
bushels choice white, deliverable on the 10th of August,
sold at $l,BO. Rye is steady at $l. Corn is in steady de
mand—sales of 3000 bushels yellow at 90c. part afloat, and
1000 bushels white, in store, on private terms. Oats aro
dull—sales of 1500 bushels at 56c. a bushel, which is a de
cline.
In Cloverseecl nothing doing. A s mall sale of Timothy
at $3,75 %a bushel.

Dr. Ilardman treats Consumption, Bronchitis,Asthma,
Larryngittis and all diseases of the throat and ungs, by
Medical Inhalation, lately used h the Bromton
London. The great point in the treatment of all human
maladies, is to get at the disease in the direct manner.—
All medicines are estimated by their action upon the organ
requiring relief. This is the important fact upon which
Inhalation is based: If the stomach is diseased we take
medicine directly into the stomach. If the lungs are dim:-
clised, breathe or inhale medicated vapors directly into
the lungs. Medicines are antidotes to disease and should
be applied to the very scat of disease. Inhalation is the
application of this principle to the treatment of the,lungs,,
for it gives us direct access to those intricate,air cells. amid
tubes which lie out of reach of every other means of ad
ministering. medicines. The reason that Consumption - .
and other diseases of the lungs, have heretofore resisted
all treatment has been becamito, they lutve never been ap
proached in a direct manner by medicine.. They were in
tended to act upon the lungs, and yet Viere applied to the
stomach. Their action was intended to be local, and Yet . ,
they were so administered that they should only act con - -
stitutionallv, expending their immediate and principal ac
tion upon the unottinaling stomach, whilst the foul ulcers
within the lungs were unmolested. Inhalation brings
the medicine in direct contact with the disease, without
the disadvantage of any violent action. Its application is
so simple, that it can be employed by the youngest infant
or feeblest invalid. It does not derange the stomach, or in
terfere in the least degree with the strength, comfort, or
business of. the patient.
Other Diseases Treated.—ln relation to the following dis
eases, either when complicated with lung affections or ex
isting alone, I also invite consultation, 3 usually find them
proatptly curable.
rrolapsus and all other forms of Female Complaints, Ir
regularities and Weakness.
Palpitation and all other for M -i of Heart Disease, Liver
Complaint.:, Dyspepsia, and all other diseases of stomach
and bowels,
All disea,es of the eye and ear. Neuralgia, Epilepsy,
and all forms of nervous disemte. .
