The Cumberland Alleghanian of Friday says •
—A disease wiiich has baffled the best medical
• kill has been prevailing for some time past in
the Glades, the upper part of this county. Its
approach is known hv a slight pain, which soon
extends over* the system, drawing the body
nearly double, and causing the most excruci
ating'pain to tie person attacked, who is only j
relieved by death, which usually takes place in j
a few hours. Families have been almost en- |
tireiy destroyed by it, and we. hear of an j
instance where a widow and three children ;
were attacked, and died—one little child only j
escaping.
cur c s y " , wer ® killed by lightning in a
stable in Baltimore on Saturday.
Two children out of four who were plunged
into a mill-pond in Upton county. Georgia, by
an insane mother, were drowned.
Two men were killed by the failing of a bank
of earth, near which they were working in the
Coal diggings in Augusta county, Virginia, on
last Wednesday.
Three men were killed and two others se
riously injured by the explosion of a can of
powder, at llurl Gate, New York, where A/ons.
.l/aillefert is engaged in blowing rocks under
water.
Henry Hollinger, a most estimable young
man, and Charles Buck muster, (a colored man,)
were insiantly kii t-d nl Gettysburg on Friduy
last, while engaged in undermining the wall
of the Catholic Church, which prematurely
gave way.
A three-story brick house, in progress of
erection on Thirty-second street, New York,
fell on Saturday afternoon, while twelve or
fourteen mechanics were at work in it. The
ruins are being cleared up, and it is reported
that live persons have been taken out dead, it
is feared that more bodies are still beneath the
rubbish.
A SMASH. —Twenty-one freight cars ran down
Plane 10 of the Allegheny Portage Railroad on
.Monday last and eleven of them were smashed
to atoms. Fortunately they contained but little
lading, or the loss would doubtless have been
large. But it is heavy enough, as it is ; and as
it occurred through the remissness of the State
Agents, the tax-payers we suppose will have
the bill to fool.— Uoiliduysburg Register.
A LADV KILLED BY LIGHTNING. — During the
thunder storm on Saturday morning the dwel
ling house of John Riehey, Near Stewartstown,
York county, Pu v was struck by lightning, and
his daughter .'\ftss Eve Riehey, about 37 years
of age, killed instantly. Two little children
was standing witljin a few feet of her at the
time, but neither was injured. Riehey was in
a room above, and also escaped without harm.
The dwelling sustained no serious damage.
FIRE ON TIIF. PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD. —On
Friday morning, about half-past 9 o'clock, the
train of cars which left the city the preceding
evening at 10 o'clock, lost the baggage car by
fire. The train was four miles east of Altooca,
and going at a rapid rate, when the baggage
car was discovered to be on tire. Jt originated,
doubtless, from the locomotive, and before the
dames were extinguished, all the baggage, be
longing to one hundred and eighty passengers,
was destroyed. The loss, is supposed, will
reach §10.01)0.
New York was visited with a most destructive
fire, on Saturday morning. The stores of Lati
mer & Large, and Merritt, Bliss, & Co., in Day
street, were destroyed, and those of White,
Brameli & Lock wood, Mott, Weaver el Rich
ardson, ami Cranes & Thompson, damaged bj
lire and water.—The whole loss is estimated at
§517,000, and the insurance at §589,500. The
