On Saturday morning last, about half past 9 a. m., Mr. Amos Shoemaker, one of the carpenters at work on Mr. Henry Fullmer' s new bnilding, in front of his stable on Frank lin street in 'tins' IJorough, came very near looking his life. Mr. S. in company with h. John Pv. 1'lair, undertook to carry a tool- ' chest up a small ladder from the second to and when Shoemaker, lost his hold and fell back-wards, to the ground, a distance of about twenty feet, among a lot of large stones, and iu the fall, fractured the left thigh bone about sis inches tbove the knee joint ; fractured the large bone of the left forearm at wrist (Barton's fracture); all the bones of the left elbow joint were crushed and mangled; both bones ol the right forearm broken about 1 inches above the wrist joint and the cuds penetrat ing through the flesh, and also received a fracture of the external table of the skull half an inch above right eye, several severe cuts of the scalp, and in all probability received some internal injuries. One of the employees of the hotel, who was near the building and witnessed Mr. S. fall, gave the alarm, which attracted the attention of a number of per sons who were passiug near the building at the time, who rushed in and found Mr. S. laying where he had fallen in an almost insensi ble condition. He was placed upon a door and carried to his residence on Ann street, when Drs. LeBar and Mutchler were called, who set the fractures and dressed thewouuds of the injured man and made him as com fortable as possible under the circumstances, llow he escaped being killed imtantly is a miracle-.

He finally accepted tl.e services of a cancer Doctor living somewhere in the wes tern part of New York State, who by caustic applications remove:! the fungus growth o! Cesh protruding from the corner of his eye ou two different occasions. Put this at most only temporarily arrested the progress of his terribly fatal disease, while it gave the suf ferer only a flickering hope. He attended to his ordinary avocation, doing more than an ordinary man's work, until about a j-carngo, since which time he only worked as he lelt like it.

Princeton college has lately been agitated over the dismissal some of the students who had connected themselves with various secret societies opular among their class. The rules of Princeton on this subject are very stringent, and every ap plicant for admission in required to tign a pledge that he will not encourage or join tiny secret society. Yet such associations have constantly existed there. The mem bers are at length fottnd out by the faculty, and have to renounce their . associations or leave the institution. The college authorities are not to be- censured, for they have a perfect right to make rules, and enforce them ; and it there are applicants who do it equal liberty to remain outside. Yice-Presidcnt Wilson was a man of frugal and modest habits, and died poor. His public services, were not productive of much income to himself, though of the greatest importance to the country. Al though oltcn occupying positions ol the highest responsibility, his opportunities for getting rich did not compare with those of many a subordinate in bfacial or private fe.

Among the dead of last week is William B. Astor of New York, probably the richest man in America, at the age of 8-1 years. Though immensely wealthy, the influence of 3Ir.

A large part of his money was invested in real estate in the upper portion of the city, where it increased in value with exceeding rapidity. The pub lic work with which 3Ir. Astor's name is mainly connected is the Astor Libray, founded in pursuance of the father's will, but largely increased in usefulness by the sou's liberality. Death of William II. Yv'itte.

The interest in the new Co;irrc?s, of course, centers in the organiza tion of the House of Heir.:sentative.s. It will bo eighteen years sineo a Democratic h-riealvor lias befn elected, and iu that in terval the Kei-ublican party has con t nil led the IIoue for nine consecutive Congresses. OftheUD'J members of the next House, the Democrats have 178, the llepublicans 108, and the Independents 0. Of the var ious candidates for the h-peakership, Kerr, of Indiana, Randall, of this .State ; Cox and Wooil, of New York, .Savior , oi 01ii ; Holinan, of Indiana, and Lamar, of Mis sissippi, were meinbers of prei-edin Con irres.ses, while Payne, of Ohio, and Walker, of Virginia, are new members. The rela tive htrenirth of the various candidates is variously estimated, and the result alone can definite ly determine who is ahead. Next to the Speaker the Clerk is the most im portant officer of the House, and for this ai well ns for tho minor offices there is no lack of candidates.
