SuocHiNG AcCipENr-On "Wednesday
Of last week, while MIR Samuel C. Chadwick.
OF Arlington, was engaged in digging well
for Mr. ). w. Squircs, of ShafIsbury he re-
coivcd htal injury by the falling OF a barrel
u'cd for the purpose Of drawing mp dirt The
rope being rather small, gave way, just ms
they had got the barrel to the top OF the well,
prccipitatng the barrel with the contents 10
the bottom, some % feet, striking Mr. G. up
on the head and back, fraeturing the skull
aud injuring severely the spine in several
places. Ilo fingered until Friday evening
at about 10 o'clock in excruciating pain, when
hreXpircd His age was 81. He leaves a
wife and several children to weep and mourn
over the sudden death of a kind Husband and
father. This is indeed n sad accident, and
contains warning to those who labor in pla-
ccs surrounded by danger TO be very cau-
tious.-Bosnipqion Banner ' .'.''"'-.'. 30 ..'.

TmE WHEAT CRoP.-From all sections
t,e representation is that the Wheat Crop
mover was more promising. In Canada IT IL
unusually good. In the western and middle
States, it is much larger than usual. In our
own and other New England States, il looks
promising. From all parts Of Europe the ae-
counts are favorable for a large ingathcring
In almost all parts Of our own Country it
has been either gathered in, or has so far
progressed, that there is no danger that it win
sustain scrious injury.
Europe, with her abundance, will not take
our surplus. The inference then is, flour
win be cheap in the United States--chcapcr
than it now is.

well, a money lender from Vermont, while
on his way TO his boarding house at night,
was shot, the ball entering his forehead di-
rectly above one-eye and penetrating the
head two inches. He cannot recover. lie
had about $3.50 in his pocket, which was Sc
cured by the assassin"
Rather hard for one who sought to 'make
haste Many persons seat
tered through tho Western States, who went
there from the Eastern and Middle States to
lend money. The interest obtained in from
~ to % per cent; and the number of Dor
rowers at such rates is very great. The Cal
iiornia fever seized many Of the Western
farmers, and il run so high that they mort
gagged their farms, at high rates of interest,
to raise the means to get to California, This
short sighted policy, on their part, attracted
the attention of shrepd money lenders of the
east, and thousands of farms will pass into
their hands at one half and one fourth OF
their real value. Many of these California
adventures will never rcturn-many that
or obtain gold enough 10 eRsslae them 10 re-.
turn, and others will return impoverished,
but to see their farms pass into other hands
and witness the fruits of their folly. AT all
times money is much harder to DO obtained
at the west than at the east; but since the out.
break of the California fever, the rates of in
terest have ranged still higher. This fact,
that money commands high rates of inter
est shows that il is hard to be. obtained, and
also, that the west is no desirable place of
residencc-cxcept to money lenders. The
miser there can obtain his "pound of
hesh;" bat, as in thecase narrated at the head
otthis article. -riinA soma risk of having his
head bored by n bullet We deduce this
conclusion from these facts all, whether
they be rich or poor, having residences in
the east, had better remain here.
