On Wednesday last, an Irishman named John Drone, was carved up on the Portage Road, at the foot of Plane No. 10 by a train of frebrht cars. &! was cominK road, and a loco motive with a train The noise 'and confusion bewa. . ttn so that he paid no attention to train:: rs immediately be hind him. The Molt «s struck, him, and he 1.11, the entire train passing over him, cutting him literally in two! Michael Kelly and oth ,o, who were near, ran to his assistance but it was too late. He gasped fur a few minutes, without being able to speak, and died. From 4 letter tram his father, found in his pocket, it ,was ascertained that his name was John Decay, from Donegal, Ireland, and from the tenor of it, it was supposed that he was going home.

The following presentment was made by the grand jury at the conclusioa of their labors at -the Somersetshire (Eng.)'quarter sessions, hol den at Bridgewater, just pow concluded:—"No present, that at the close of Our duties as grand Jurymen our inquiries were directed whether 'the labors we wore called upon to discharge were any longer a public benefit. Almost all the cases brought before grandjuries have been previously inquired into before magis trates, the evidence carefully considered, and they have decided that there was sufficient .cause to put the persons on their trial. To .call from their homes a body of gentlemen un .adeustomed to, the examination of witnesses, and through them to interpose a public inqul. •ry,itot whether the person is or is not guilty, , but.whether the magistrate was right or wrong in saying that there was sufficient ground for 'putting him on trial, appears to us t be a pro ceeding entirely unnecessary, of no p.,1 i c utili 'ty, and frequently obstructive of justice, and 'we therefore state it as our opinion and belief that it would (except in political cases) be highly expedient and of great public benefit if grated juries were altogether abolished.' Hearing with the Teeth. Many pears ago en old subscriber who was entirely deaf, called nt our office, and with the help of a slate which he always carried with hint, we were enabled to converse with eael other. Iu the course of our interview, he re marked that for many years he had not been •nble'to bear the loudest thunder, but added that to his great surprise, a few evenings before he was at the house of a friend and was seated by the shit of a piano, his elbow resting upon it, and his teeth upon his thumb, when he heard distinctly the tune which the daughter of his friend happened to be playing. Again and again he tried the experiment, and he could al ways hear when the connection thus formed woo kept up, but could hear nothing whatever when it was broken either by the removal of his elbow, from the piano or by placing his thumb upon any other portion of his face.— From the character of our informant we have =vented a doubt of the truth of his narrative —and we give it now chiefly as a suggestion whether some simple instrument cannot be framed 'by means of which deaf persons may be enabled to hear with their teeth.—Rich mond Y - ct., Watchman.
