II ECONER Ed.

The boy who was shot by his father, in
mistake for a Deer, in Covinsion tp, some
weeks since, we are pleased 10 say, has en-.
tirey recovered. The ball, as has recently
asceriained, no, only went through the body
from behind, near the centre OF the breast:
but il also passed into one arm below the
elbow. The arm was soie, the skin and
flesh broken, as the boy supposed scratched
in some way at the time of the accident
After the swelling of the arm subsidized aud
was relieved from inflammation, the little boy
fancieG he felt something there, which did
not properly belong TO flesh and bones. AT
his solicitation The attending physicians cut
into The flesh, and 10 the surprise Of all, the
bullet was found there aud extracted. 50
the bullet passed through the body and into
the arm, without touching a vital part, or
breaking bone, and the brave hearted liIle
fellow has the bullet as momenlo OF the
sad accident, while the sound state Of his
health and body, is a momenio of Provden.

GREAT RAIL ROAD PRoJEcT.-A Legisla-
tive letter from Albany, New York, says -
"The Mammoth bill Incorporating The Allan
tic and Pacific Rail Road Company, contains
the names of six officers of the State gov
eminent, as corporators, wilhAhe consent OF
the general government, 10 construct road
from the Mississippi to the Pacific. The
proposal is 10 survey six hundred miles OF
the route by April, 1854, and construct a
single track within five years after, together
with line of telegraph. The capital is to
consist OF one hundred millions of dollars
This is the most magnificent enterprise
which humanity has ever conceived, and il
any set of men in the country can finish th'
work, it is probably those who are applying
for this privilege"

u Nat Osirander
"Dr J. Reynolds. SIR-Having for many
years been afflicted with two large and invei-
crate Cancers, (one upon my right hand. the
other upon my left arm) | sought in vain for
cure at the hands ol our most experienced sur
geonS.
Hearing of your successful treatment of
Cancers, | determined to have the benefit OF
your experience, and for this purpose came to
New Orleans, eight months ago, when spec
dily received relief, by yonr mild and eifec-
tnal mode of taking both Cancers out without
the aid OF the knife. The Cameo: up,n my
hand weighed over quarter Of a pound, that
on my arm, more than three quarters of a
pound, yet the new and healthy flesh took
their place so rapidly that was entirely res
tored to health in few weeks ia
AS token of gratitude for your able and
successful treatment Of my Cancers, volun-
tarily add this my testimony to yeur numer-
ops credentials, and trust that those effected
with Cancers may be directed to you, for a
speedy and effectual cure Respectfully.

MeSsyS. Sanford a. Parh-Gents: This

the last two years. Her disease baffled the

that her recovery was past all human hopes.
As last resort, with very little hope, pro-
cured Wistar's Balsam of Wild Cherry
After using few bottles, found, to my
agreeable surprise, that her health was i'm
proving rapidly. She is now so far recov-
cred, as to be able to attend to her regular

convenience. Her rapid Improvement and
present health, warrant me in the belief that
she will soon be entirely restored.
