The animal being scared made a sudden
jump, causing the saddle to turn, throwing
tho young man in such a way that the colt
trod on him, injuring him considerably in
the side i
oy Ktiieu. As tne last lino east was
approching Marysville, last Tuesday morn
ing, a jolt of the train caused tho conductor
to supposo they had passed over a broken
rail. He accordingly stoped the train and
sent back to ascertain, when it was found
that they had run over a colored lad, and
instantly killed him. His remains were ta

by the coroner. No person was able to in
dentify tho lad, and it is supposed ho was

A Decision. Tho Commissioner of Inter

gardeners who sell only the products of
their own farms and gardens from their w;i
gons along the streets wherever they can
obtain permission to temporarily place
them, having no regular placo upon tho
street for their wagons where their custom
ers may expect to find them, but changing
their location, standing one day in one placo
and another day in another, do not by so
doing render themselves liable to special
tax as produce brokers.

Robbery nl Hiirrisbtirg. On the 8th inst,
two men named Henry lleilman and Jacob
Poornian, wcro attacked, knocked down
and robbed. Mr. Poornian was robbed of
his poeket-book, containing $5,740, mostly
in drafts. On Monday of last week three
men were arrested and were identified both
by Mr. Poornian and Mr. lleilman, as the
parties committing the assault. Ono of
them named Kautz, succeeded in obtaining
bail in $1,000, for bis appearance, and the
others were committed to answer. Ono of
tho drafts amounting to $3,000 was after
wards picked up on the street and returned

The Roads. A little attention on the
part of tho supervisors would now greatly
improvo tho roads. If the deep ruts were
tilled, traveling would bo comparitively
gobd. A proper regard to the comfort of
the public will prompt ham to this action.
