years Of age, graduated several years ago,
with great credit to himself at Medical In.
slilutim in the Stale of New York, aud since
that period praclced medicine in the niegh-
borhood in which he died and near which he
was born. His practice was extensive and he
was not only the physician bu! the friend of
those families which he professionally visited
and The community al large, testified the high
esteem in which he was held by the unusually
large concorse of people, which attended his
remains TO the grave. 1t is estimated that there
were over one hundred vehicles, and five hun
dred persons at The funeral. His talents were
of superior order and his moral character un-
blemished For several years he had been a
most worthy member of the Presbyterian church,
and he departed this life in the prospect of a
blissful immortality. He has left aged parents,
a youthful widow. and two children of tender
years TO lament his loss. His funeral sermon
was preached by his pastor, the Rev. Mr.. John

clans in the United States, would effec.ually Sc

We, the undersigned. feel much pleasure in
recommending Clickener's Sugar Coated Vegeta-
BILE Extract Pills to the most favorable considera-
ton Of the public. We have used them freely in
our private practice, and have ever found them a
most efficacious medicine. We know OF no medi-
cinal concoction 50 sure as those pills, all others
which we have analyzed being more or less in
iured by particles of deleterious matter, an evil
which DR.. Clickener has avoided, by the invention
Of a singularly Ingenious machine which extracts
the essences from the vegetables without any al
10y whatever. CEckener's Pills are adapted to
all constitutions, being sufficiently mild for infants,
and yet most powerful purgatiye. Another of
their pecrliares is that their operations are un-
attended with nausea, pain, gripe, which is the
result Of the expulsion of all impure matter from
the ingredients that compose them. We have TO
add that the coating of the Pills with sugar is a
new and happy era in medicine, the advantages oil
which are too obvious to require comment"

RAILROAD ACCIDENTs.-A dreadful collision
took place by the meeting of two Locomotives
with trains of Freight cars on The New Y York
and Erie Railroad between Great Bend and
Lanesboro' on Wednesday of last week, by
which not only an immense loss of properly in
the destruction of Locomotives was caused, but
it is feared fatal injury was inflicted upon the
limbs of two or three persons. We are in
formed that the train going cas-: from Binghamp-
ton being little behind time, the one coming
from The east, which should have waited at
Lanesboto', was recklessly pushed forward in
hopes of reaching Great Bend before meeting
the other But they met in deep cut and
short curve of the road where it was impossi.
bic TO discover each other till close together,
when they met with tremendous force, smash
ing up the Loc0mtves in terrible manner and
breaking he legs and seriously wounding the
Engineer and another man on the train going
east, while the Engineer going west, who was
chiefly 10 blame. jumped off and escaped.
Dr.. Patrick Of this place, who was sent for,
Informed US that the injuries were very serious,
and tha, he was apprehensive ampu,aton would
have TO be performed on The Engineer whose
leg was so badly crushed. Since then we have
heard that The leg was taken off by Dr. Jack
son of Binghamplon, but the man has since
died
Several accidents have occurred on the road
hitherto, by collisions with cars or other obsta-
cfes on the track, or by running off and break
ing engines, by which immense losses have al
ready been sustained by The company but this
