Calvin Heller, of Mourft Bethel, being here on business, nud too anxioa3 to return to wait for the regular passenger train, attempted to jump on a passing freight train when he ras precipitated beneath the wheels, run over and crushed terribly. I am well accumtomed to seeing persons jump on passing trains, but thi3 custom has not driven away fears of the consequence and wheu this young man was about to make the leap I cautioned him with "lie carelul, be carelul:" An instant more and he was dragging under the cars calling for help, which could not be given till the cars had done their work and been stopped. lie was taken out, torn and bleedin jet with all Lis reasoning powers in usual force. The fatal mistake wa3 plain to his misunderstanding, but that mistake wai fixed. O, it wa an awful bight to look upon that mangled form which but a moment before was all health and hope How suddenly was the picture of life dashed away from him and a picture of death planted in its stead! CaWia Heller was a comparatively young man, with a wife and three chil dren, and an only child himself of the parents of whom he talks as tenderly as of his bosom companion and lis little oncu. He bore his fate calmly, Christianlike, talking of his friends gone before and of' himself now very Eoon to follow. Wc' "could but sigh and pity what we could' not speak to health and soundness whilst -we wauca lor the approaching end. He lived two hours and a quarter after the fatal leap, in full possession of his rea son ing faculties and then passed away. Four hours after the accident his life. less remains were started toward that home which he had left all bright in the brightness of the znorniog, but whichwas already shrouded with a dark ness that no pen can paint.

The strawberry season, which is jus nrrr. hns been one cf the most rroJuc tive ever known, in certain localities of this State. The shipments from llammoutou alone, to New York, and pomt3 beyond from June 'J to June 23, memsive, were it7o,oii uuns, and tu l'li.Iadelj hia lla. loU Quarts: the total shipment for tu season beiug about 420,457 quarts. This? is the largest season's shipment ever scut from Ilammontcn, and much larger than any ever sent from any other locality. Ou the whole, the prices have been fair. Some have lost, undoubtedly, but it is estimated that the profits of the crop in Ilammonton alone will reach 30,000. In Monmouth County the crops look well. The farmers think the yield ol wheat, corn, potatoes, and other staples, will be unusually large. There will be no apples and no cherries, and but few peaches and pears. The blackberry crop promises to be a good one. Last week was the hight of the strawberry season in Monmouth, and great quaintities were shipped to New York. The will of the late President Buchanan bequeaths S2,000 lo the poor of Lancas ter, Penna., and 81,000 to the Presbyte rian Church in that town.

Harriet Lane Johnson, his niece, receives one-fourth cf his estate, including the Wheatland property, for which she pays $12,000 out of her resid uary share. The will is dated at Wheat land, Jan. 27, 1SGG, and a codicil of the 9th of August, J.SG7, provides that Wm. B. Reed is to have $1,000 to pay the ex penses and secure the publication of a biographical work cn the deceased; and to Mrs. Mary L. Reed, wife of Wm. B.

A dispute having arisen between some persons in Des Moines, Iowa, relative to the proper pronunciation of the name of the Republican candidate for Vice-Presi dent, one of them addressed him a, letter of inquiry. A portion contended that it was pronounced Colfax, others claiming that it was pronounced Coalfax. The Speaker's reply reads as follows: asiiingtox, May 2G. My first name i3 pronounced as if written Skyler, and the last as if written Coalfax. The "a" doubtless dropped out in crossing the ocean. A gentleman on his way to Philadel phia attracted much attention last Tues day by his tremendous beard, and tlie way in which he carried it. It extended as far as his waist, around which it was folded once, and thence carried across his breast and thrown over thc left shoul der, the point terminating about half way down the back, after the style which la dies are accustomed to envelop themselves in nubias, which it very much resembled. - - Information Wanted.

Several attempts were made to rescue hici by the roughs cf the place, but lhey were baf fled. lie was brought to this city yester day and lodged in jail. The reuiaiuing three of the murderers are still at large; but it is impossible for them to escape the clutches of the law without leaving the country. Bond has a wife aul four children living at Sonora in very desti tute circumstances. The sympathies of the commuBity arc with them, but pity, is a stranger to such a desperado as Bond i3 represented to be.

Bold Robbery in Wall st.-A neisenger Beaten and Robbed oT $Gft,000. Shortly before noon, June 29, Ben jamin Hertz, a boy employed bt the firm of D. A. Boody of No. 12 Wallst., while returning to the banking office of his em plovers, on the second floor of the above named building, having in lib possession $G0,000 worth of United Stitcs bonds, was met on the stairs by " an unknown man, who knocked him down and beat his head against the wall. He finglly re leased his hold of the bonds, and these the thief seized and dashed into the street He ran up Wall-fct, to Broadway, crossed to Lector-st., and on the way down lite tor-st , ran with considerable force against a man coming up. The stranger, ind'w ginant at being run against, made a move uicnt as if to strike the thief, when the latter dropped the package cf bonds, and running across the street, disappeared iu the crowd. Ihe bonds were restored to Messrs. Boody & Co. The boy, although bearing the marks of ill uage on his hoad and face, is net seriously injured. No clue to the thief has yet been obtained although the boy is cuablcd to give i 11 t very goou acscription or ms general ap rcarance, and would readily recognize him in case of his arrest. 2eio York Tribune The Grasshopper Pest.

A few days since a fox made its appear ance at the-residence of Mr. -Calistus Abell, ia this county, and commenced violent assault upon a negro woman, who sustained considerable injury from the bites and scratches of the animal, but finally succeeded in driving it off. After leaving the houso the fox encountered 1 negro man upon the road, and immcdia tcly attacked and bit him severely. An- ouier negro wuo naprencd to De near came to his resistance, and thot and kill cd the fox.

Voters will please take notice that An drew Johnson, who has always professed to be anxious for tha Rebel States to bo taken back into the Union as soon as pos sible, vetoed the bills for their admission when they were passed by Congress They will also notice that every Demo cratic member of Congress voted against the bills in the first place, and tnen 1.1 again to sustain Johnson's vetoes when they were sent in. These Southern States are therefore now restored to the Union by the Republicans alone, and m the tectl of Democratic opposition.

Every one will understand how falso are the professions of this party of devotion to the Union. Bucks Co.

Jcs So ! In looking ever our exchanges we find that the Democratic editors do not like Geucral Grant.

And yet, as we look back, we have really no right to count upon Democratic allectiOQ lor Ulysses.
