Chapter of Accidents. On Mouday afternoon last the mule team of Messrs. J. & M. Yetter, of East Strouds- ln.nr, was standing in front of the tin-shop o Wm. S. Flory on Main street, this borough, sind suddenly took it into their heads to have a Dirt ie prairie liberty, and sending a rigorous lick at the driver who attempted to seize them by the heads, went off at a two-furty pace to the opposite side of the street, in front of Robert Huston's store, where they jrot mixed up with the posts and trees, 1 n -a king the tongue, whiffle tree and a por tion of the harness, when one of the mules got loose and ran up centre street a short distance, where it was caught and brought back. Another About 4 o'clock the same after noon, Mr. Charles Featherman, of Hamilton tp., who was in town on business, drove up iu front of C. 11. Andre & Go's., store, and during his absence, the team took fright at something, ran up Main street to Shafer's hotel, striking the buck-board wagon of Jacob Stouffer, whirling that nearly around and badly bending the axle of the buck-board. The next objects in their way were the lamp Vot, which was deinoli:hed, and the corner of Judge Drolier' b fence, which was broken down. By this time they had gained the Hrect, up which they dashed at a furious rate, and when near the corner of Pocono Mieet one of the horses fell and was dragged it chort distance, when they were caught On Tuesday, while George Kirk was driv ing Mr. J. II. MtCarty's horse and top car riage to the funeral of Mr. Watson Jones, in turning round the corner in front of Kecnist's gunsmith shop, the carriage upset, throwing out Kirk and Mrs. Smith, the only occupants, injuring Mrs. Smith quite serious ly. Kirk escaped with a few slight bruises. The top and body of the carriage were com pletely demolkhed. Mrs. Smith was con veyed to her residence in an insensible condi tion. Dr. Geo. W. Jackson attended to her wounds and she is now slowly recovering. On Friday last , Mr. J. Y. Sigafus and A, J. Clements, of this place, left home on business, and whilst on their return, when directly in front of the cave below the Dela ware Water Gap, driving along leisurely, the king-bolt flew out letting the body down, throwing Messrs Sigafus and Clements to the ground, Mr. C. had his face and chin i-kinned, and Mr. Sigafus was skinned about the nose and mouth, and slightly bruised about the back. The horses ran a short distance, when they were caught by Mr. D. Weidman, who sent the team back to where the accident happened, and through the assistance of some friends righted up mat ters, wheti they started for home, arriving here about 8 o'clock p. m. This Judicial District has been divided, Wayne and Pike counties forming one dis trict, and Carbon and Monroe another. If this apportionment receives the signature of . the Governor before the first of May, it will necessitate the appoiutment of a Judge to resiie over the Courts of Pike aud Wayne until the- ejection iu November next, when one will be tinted to serve for ten years.

Howard Marsii, son of ex-Seriff Marsh of this place, met with quite a serious acci dent on Thursday of last week. He had been engaged in boiling some oil, when it accidenily took fire, and while endeavoring to lift the kettle from the fire, spilled a portion of the burning oil on his left hand, buruing the back part of the hand and fingers in a fearful manner. Dr. J. II. Shull was called and administered to the wants of the sufferer. . . Hess Brother's have transferred the manufacturing department of their tobacco business to the corner of George and Monroe streets. Hereafter their establishment on main street will he used as a wholesale and retail store.

All lovers of the weed should give them a call. The April number of Wood's Household Magazine, now upon our table, well sustains its reputation as a first-class, live publication. While its contents are not deep or scientific, its pages are free from trashy sensational stories, and are full of bright sunny reading that goes home to the heart. The magazine contains its usual number of illustration?, and its general appearance compares favorably with the high er priced magazine. Subscription price one dollar a year; with chromo Yosemite one dol lar and a half. Subscriptions may begin with any number. Address. Wood's Household Magazine, Newburgh, N. Y. The Street Railway is the most general and important public improvement that this community can boast of. Property in general is much enhanced in value because of it The fare to or from the Depot was for merly 25 cents, then 20 cents, but the Rail way Company reduced it to 10 cents. Freight has been delivered more promptly than ever before and at much reduced rates. While coal is sold at less profit, delivered in any quantity and more promptly than ever, and of the same or better quality. The Company has never attempted, even, to practice any imposition whatever on the public, but on the contrary manifests every desire to do every thing that is honorable and fair. Hence the Railway is not only a con venience and profit to this community, but to the traveling public as well, and deserves the kindest consideration at the hands of both, and we doubt not will continue to re ceive it from all fair minded and honorable persons. Opposition therefore, is not ouly uncalled for, but is a moral wrong. B. J. Van Cott, late proprietor of the "Lackawanna House" at East Stroudsburg, has sold out and moved to Newton, N. J., and will take charge of the "Anderson House," of which he has become the proprie tor. Mr. Van Cott, has resided in this county, for the past three years, one of which he spent at Kellersville and the last two years at East Stroudsburg, during which time he has been in the hotel business. Mr. Van C. is a live man and knows bow to keep a hotel as it should be kept, and we can as sure the denizens of Newton and the public generally, that his table will be supplied with all the luxuries of the season, prepared in a style to tempt the most fastidious, and knows how to eee that every guest feels at home and at peace with himself, "the world and all the rest of mankind." The Massachusetts Legislature wrestled with the Senatorial question nearly all of last week, without result The struggle began on Tues day, with Judge Hoar, Mr. Dawes, Judge Curtis and Charles Francis Adams as the chief candidates. Dawes and Hoar exhibited nearly equal strength among the Republican mem bers, each receiving over eighty votes. Judge Curtis was supported by the Democrats, and his vote stands steadily at about 74. Mr. Adams does not get many votes, but is in a good position to get the ultimate Republican strength. In this respect Gen. Ranks is his most formidable competitor. The last ballot for the week was taken on Saturday. It gave Dawes 85, Hoar 75, Curtis 68, Adams 14, Banks 7, with several scattering. Th Dawes men profess to be confident of success, but there is a general impression that neither Dawes nor Hoar can be elected, and that the Democrats in the end may name a Republican who will be chosen.

A few days ago we happened to hear a . n ' . . a conversation, or portion oi it, oeiween a mother, with peculiar notions, and her daughter, a "gushing maiden" of sixteen. It was on the subject of fitting a dress, lhe mother insisting upon a low neck and the daughter objecting. The fair "beauty una dorned," opened the discussion by saying, Ma, don't you think this dress is very low in the neck?" ''not at all," replied the mother. "But ma, why need I have it so ow? Miss. , covers her shoulders and she is such a nice girl." "Well, my dear, Miss. , ha3 her dress made to cover the freckles. Then she has no bust at all It would be a pretty sight, indeed, for her to dress like you." "But ma," she . said, 'it leaves my shoulders so bare, and here m 'ront I am afraid the gentlemen will look. "Woll mv Hp.nr. T am ashamed of you. If a gentleman looks at your nose are you to put a patch over it? Don t your mother now what is proper?" At this juncture the conversation was interrupted by some one entering the room and the pretty little story was spoiled. We enjoyed it very much and think the ''blushing maiden had the best ot the argument However, we will wait and see whether the dress was made in accord ancfl with the mothers notions.
