Serious Accident. Last Saturday morning Mr. S. C. oan met with a most scvero and painful accident at Knoxea mill, llo lad been tail-sawing on the mill for several months, and at the time of tho accident tho board saw was not run ning, so ho turned in and was helping Mr. Geo. Klump edgo some boards that had just been sawed. Georgo had put a board on the "carriage" and run it through, taking ono edge off, and Mr. S. being at tho other end, lurned the board, which was only about six inches wide, and was run ning it back. As he camo near the satho board, upon which his hand was restuij;, beaan to vibrate, a'jd icfore the unfortunato man was aware of it hit? right baud struck the saw, and was instantly mangled to pieces. lo came up to the office of Dr. Blaine who dressed tho wound. Tho thumb was taken off close to the - hand ; the first, or index finger was amputated between tho first and second joints ; Iheseeimd finger was tortl completely out of its socket, and was afterward licked up near the saw in the mill; the third finger was taken off at the second joint, the little finger being the only one which was unhurt or saved. Those who i-aw the hand before it was dressed say it was horrible, it being torn rather than sawed or cut, and the mang led flesh and bones presented a most 6ickeniug sight. The Doctor dressed tho wound and rendered the Hufferer as comfortable as possible under tho circumstances, and although yet in great pain be is getting along as well as 2ould be expected. Mr. Sloan can rest assured that he has tho sympaty of the entire commu nity, and that our citizens will lend him any assistance he may ask. Ex-Congressman, Chapin Hall, well linown lo our older class of citi izens, died at Jamestown, N. Y., last Friday night.

He brought with him several crates of peaches from tho orchard of Mr. (Jeo. Boeber whic are the finest ever yet brought to this place. Wo know 'cause we had chance to try them.

We hopo our farmers and fruit growers will give a little moro atton tion to the subject, aud in a few years we can export instead of import these delicacies. -Persons going fioni homo to Rchool, seek the best advantages at tho lowest rates.

Quite a number from this place ara talking of going. Messrs. Tate & Van Giesen aro now iu full communion with tho Pro- thonotary's office at the Court House, having made the connection by tele phone. The lino works so perfectly that one can readily distinguish voi ces with which ho -is laminar, and when at tho Prothonotary's office you can hear quite plaiuly the ticking of tho large clock in Mr. Tate's office. It saves many a trip betweeii the two offices. Since this line has been found to work so well others of our citizens are talking of connecting their places of business with their homes by this ingenious invention. -Mr. Charles M. Cott, of Colum bus, Ohio, arrived in town last Friday. His wife, formerly Miss Adelva Roberts, and two children have been visiiting here for several weeks, whom he has come to see.

M. was making his pleasant visit here, two weeks ago, wc did not think ho was going to leavo the single state so soon. Yet so it is ; ho has left tho ranks of the Bachelors and has taken unto himself a wife aud can hereafter sing : "Oh! tlie eleventh of September, We long shall remember," Ac. So Hymens Recruiting Sergeant en listed him at last, and enrolled his namo iu tho army of married men.

AVe cannot here forbear incidentally remarking that the day was auspic ious; that the sun ahono brightly on the 11th of September, a favorablo omen, which prognosticates a happy married life ; thereby making good tho saying, as it is written, "Happy a the bride whom the sun shines on." Although not weather-wise we are of the opinion that if the 11th of Sept., this year, had happened to have fell on the 10th (although the respected anniversary of Perry's Victory on Lake Erie) it would not have been a auspicious iu all poiuts of view as the day, for although there were no ''ahad fiies" Covering in the air, thero was some rain and "a mackerel ski." Not to be prolix in writing of this happy event; not venturing to give advice, for that is the province of the Parson, wo closo with our congratula tions to the happy pair, who journey through lifo together.
