Melancholy Accident

a heart-rend'ng catastrophe occurred
on Fast Day, near Orrstown, Franklin co.
a party OF four young men, consisting of
John Blair, Thomas Bard, James Soon.
s,er' and Charles A. Sponsler, left that
place with their guns, and proceeded to
'ne country, in pursuit Of game. In the
afternoon, the death of cue of their mum.
ber took place under the following circum.
stances: james Sponsler had Just loaded
his gun. and rested the barrel on his arm
to put on the cap, and while in the act of
letting back the dog on the cap, it slipped
from hts thumb and melancholy to relate,
The whole load was lodged in the head
oi his brother Charles, an active vcuth of
about lS years, who stood about four or
five feet behind hun. The back part of
his head was completely shattered, so that
he fell to the ground a corpse. The agony
OF the friends, and of his bro.her especial
ly, was int nse. Fears were entertained
that he might lose his reason, but it is now
hoped that no such result will take place.

For the Gr-ette


Ma. EDlToR:-It IS but seldom that / suffer
myself to notice the incongruous productions of
the editor of the n0minalIy True Democrat, for
the reason that in most instances they bear on
their face too palpably the sembIance of sophis-
try to need refutaton; but when Individual,
protesting 10 Promulgate truth, so far transcends
the limits of his duty as TO distort that principle
in such manner as to destroy even the sha-
dow Of its existence, | cannot longer withhold
an expression of my sentiments.
hold that an editor of newspaper, whether
political or not, has no legitimate right wifully
to misrepresent facts, in order to influence the
minds of his readers. The denizens of a repub-
lie should exercise the right of suffrage INTEL
LIGESTLY and this end cannot be subseryed by
the federation of conniving duplicity in our po-
litical organs. Whilst admit the right of one
man to differ in opinion with another in regard
to any theoretical principle, | wholly disclaim
the integrity and patriotism of politicians who
knowingly publish articles calculated to mislead
the unsuspectIng members of either party.
Such are my opinions-and they opinions
which will meet the approval Of every real
friend of republican Institutions. Now, let me
ask, has the True Democrat in its recent course,
at all accorded with such sentiments' No. Its
statements relative to the whig county meeting
were such as no one, who attended the meet
ing, would pronounce true.
To the editor, who prcdicates that the reso-
lutlons reported by the committee were not
adopted, O. | would simply say, never promu-
gate an assertion which common sense lcotstd re-
pudiate and as to his informant, would sug-
gest to him the proprety OF procuring pair OF
leather SptciGcIes, when he again assumes to COM
pute numbers at whig meeting, as in that case
hc may be enabled to report little nearer to
ftcts II.

For thus pledging himself, then, he was
