B. l'ArNu. t-f Kingston, came to his death suddenly on Wednes day, Oct. 4, under the following terrible eireumstances. Ile, with other boys of the same age, was gathering nuts on he fax BUTTER, near Kingston. CLAM.] 4; attempted to climb a tree, and when about -twelve fret from the ground he lost his balance and fell. In falling he :trick a fence-rail, breaking his left wrist awl injuring his bead and spine. lie be came entirely helpless at once. Thu little boys were at a loss what to tio. Ilis little brother remained and held his bead, while the other boys ran to the town for help. " Finding some other boy, they all ran' back; then they took a board, took off their coats, made a bed on the board, placed CHARLIE upon it, and carried him about a mile to his home. The broken bone was set, but he gradually sank until thte o'clock in the morning of October +i, when he died. Ile was hurt abksnt 5 o'clock in the afternoon. Mr. PAYNE was at Conyngliatn, to speak there. at an evening mass meeting. A dispatch was sent to Hazleton. the nearest telegraph statitof. By the kindness of Mr. Viscr:Nr, of lhrzletoni it was carried to Mr. PAYNy, at Conyngham. It reached him just as he finished speaking. In ten minutes be was in the carriage with Mr. ViNcENT, en route for Wilkes-Barre. Twenty-live miles were driven over the mountains in four house. Mr. PAYNE :reached his home about 2 o'clock. . His little sonknew him, called hint - by name, and kissed him. ;In tire; minutigs afterwards he sunk into a . stupor from which he never awoke." np . and Ore it to.you while it is yet fresh. Besides all this, the city papers—not one, but many of them, come to his , office eve-; ,ry day, and he carefully culls th*choicest: part of their contents to give to 'his read ers; in this way you get the contents of many city papers, and your home news boiled down in one sheet, for one price, a thing which you cannot, .possibly do by taking a city . paper. The New I ork Tribune is justly enti tled to rank as ono of the very belit pa pers published. It says many good and true things, but never hit • the nail more t squarely on the held than,in the follow. ing on local papers : "Nothing islnore common.than to hear 1 people talk of what they pay newspapers for advertising, etc., as so much give!' • charity. Newspapers, by advancing the value of property in their neighborhood, and giving the localities ir. v. hien they are published, a reputation abroad, benetit'all such, particulaq if they are merchants or real estate otyners, thrice the ainount • Yearly of the meagre sum they pay for their support. Besides every public spir ited citizen has a laudable pride of having a paper of ivhicli he is not ashamed, even though I.e should pick it up in New York or 'Washington. A good-looking, thriving sheet,helps prolierty, gives character to locality, and in many respects is a desira ble public convenience.: If from, any cause the matterin the local or editorial column should not be up to your standard, do not cast it aside and pronounce it goisi for nOthif*, until satistiedtthat there has .been no ftiore labor bestowed upon:it than has been paid for. If you ; want ]o pod readable sheet it !mist be supported. Attd it must not be supported in a spirit of charity, but because pp' feel a necessity to support it. The local press is theqaow er that moves the people." Let those twho now contemplate send ing to the city for a pager reflect for a mouient whether they hail not better tirat secure a copy of the itErouTEn, and then if they have the means and feel the inclin ation, choose some good city journal.
