Se&ious Affliction. It would seem our
neighbor Uoodlander's eyesight, as well as
his sense of hearing, has been very serious
ly impaired within & few weeks, judging
from the f&ct that he failed to notice the
R-publican "thunder" in Maine on the 10th
ef September. Come, George, you niusn't
take "on oohard" about Maine, or you will
turn entirely deaf and blind after the Sec

to prevent any disputes as to their beins :

Fatal Accident. It is with de?p trgrct '
that wo announce the Midden and unexpect- :
J dsaih of Dr. II. P. Thompson, of Cur
wencviile. 0:1 Wednesday, Sept. 19th. He
on a vi-i'.t to pome patients, several ,
mi! from town, and as he was coming
down a hill at a rapid gait, was thrown from
tlie twit of his sulky forward. In the fall
fcjt became entangled in the shafts and
n wheel of the -6ulky, and as a conse
'juuce Lis face struck the ground firt, and,
i'i this position, the Fulky passing over him
roke his neck.No person saw the occur
rence, but, we learn, the marks on the
round would ir dicate that the accident oc
curred in the manner above related. Dr.
Thompson was one of our most estimable
ailizens, and his sad and sudden d:ath has
oast a gloom over the entire community in
which he resided.
Apropos. -Mr. Ferdinand II. Jordan,
publishes ' a card" in the latt Republican.
addressed "to the Editor of the Kaftsman'a
Journal,' to which our neighbor appends the
following: .
'The above note was handed to the editor
the Journal lat week, but, for some rea
son unknown to us. he refused to publish
it," ' .
The reason is obvious : The "eard", con
tains no request to publish. It merely asks
the XDtihdraical of his nam from the list of
wldiers, with which ice had nothing to do.
Ferdinand signed, or authorized his name to
be signed to the Constitution of the Soldier's
'jeary Club,and if be did not wish it retain
ed there, why did he not,like a brave soldier,
-we tha "musio" and erase it from the club
