on of Mr. Geo. Richards, in either attempt
ing to run across th street is front of a sleigh
that was passing, or to get on to it, fell imme
diately in the track of the runner, which part
ly passed over him ; but the gentleman dri
ving fortunately checked his horse in time to
aave the boy from any injury, though not from.
terrible fright.
FittE. On last Wednesday evening, about
dusk, a bed in the upper story of the house
occupied by Mr. Babcoek, in the south-past
part of this borough, was discovered to be on
fire, which was fortunately extinguished with
out doing any other damage than partially
burning the bedstead and bedding. It is sup
posed that the Cre originated at a flue, which
stands on the boards of the floor, which igni
ted and the coals falling down set the bod on
fire. This shonld servo as another warning to
our citizens.
Alleoed Horse Tuief Cacgut. Thomas
McGhee, Esq., Deputy Sheriff of Clinton Co.,
passed through this place on Monday night,
having in his custody a man named Aaron Ire
ley, of Jefferson coanty, charged with stealing
a horse of Mr. Kustar, of Clinton county,
foms six weeks ago. It i. supposed that the
fellow may have knowledge of other offences
of a like nature, vhicli have been committed
in some of the neighboring counties during
the past year.
Ttrohe and Clearfield Railroad. An c
lection for officers of the Tyror.o and Clear
field Railroad company, was held at Philips
burg on last Monday, at which the old Board
was re-chosen, with the exception of electing
?m. Irvin, Esq., as one of the Directors in
the placa of Gen. J. Patton. An interesting
report of the Chief Engineer of the road, was
read to the meeting of the stockholders. The
work on the line, we are pleased to learn, is
progressing, the contractors having at this
time ISO hands actively engaged on it, and
they say if the company will do their duty, in
one year Ironi now the road can be made ready
to run cars between Tyrone and Philipsburg.
We, like the spirit that is manifested by all
who hare are actively connected with the road,
and we look confidently for an early comple
tion of that portion of it which is already un
der contract.

the general government several thousand dol

QyReported that a project has been start
ed to induce the State to subscribe $5,000,000
to the Sunbnry and Erie Railroad. We should
like to know upon what grounds the appropri

Government lands cost one dollar an acre on

cable to other sections than Kansas ; though
Snooks thinks that a fellow that would carry
on here in that way, would fin 4 himself "jerk
ed" for trespassing, in double-quick time.
3L7"Expected an explosion among the land
speculators in Kansas, who appear to have got
on a full head of steam. A letter from Leav
enworth says that ."a lot containing 50 acres,
lying half a mile from town, sold at private
sale, a day or two since for $11,000; one ol
53 acres for $12,000 ; and one of 1G acres for
$3,000. Single lots, 21 feet by 110, are sell
