NThe readers of the Chronicle will
surely make allowance for any Deficiencies
of the present number, when we make the
following brief statement:
Last week intelligence was received of
the death of Miss Mary Huston, (siste- of
Mrs Wor ien,) at Athens, Bradford Co.
Mr.. Charles Huston who was assisting in
the Office was called away to attend
her funeral. Early in this week, Mr.
Worden was called to attend the fu-
neral of his father, who died at jackson,
Susauehanna Co Thus fall around us
the honored and the beloved Miss Huston
was well known and is most affectionately
remembered in Lewisburg. Mr.. Worden's
father was a minister of the gospel, and
we hope some suitable notice of him will
be written for the Chronicle. We can see
no reason why Mr.. Worden (who is alum
dainty qualifedD should not write such
notice of his honored father. This article
is hastily written without Mr. Wordcn's
knowledge, and without the possibility of
of consulting him. 1t is written too by
one, who but for the peculiar circumstanc-
es of the establishment might almost be
considered an intruder into the Editorial
chair. We know not what may be Mr..
VS. view of our article or Of its propriety;
but this we know; We write with the ut
most respect for him and for his family,
and with the sincerest sympathy for his
and their great bcreavments. J. A.
On the same day that Mr.. Worden
left, Mr.. Cornelius was attacked by this
sly insidiOus fever, which completely dis
qualities man for business, and yet half
persuades him that it is only bad cold.
Jack is generally pretty sharp; but be
was slightly fooled this time-hc was.

Ey" One Of those dreadful accidents,
the bare recital Of which causes the blood
to curdle in the veins, occurred on the
new Portage railroad, near the foot of
Plane No. Q, on Monday, between 6 aud
! o'clock, Z. NJ. The locomotive Hercu-
les left the foot of Plane No s, taking on
board before starting large huckleberry
party on their way home, and, proceeding
a. rapid rate, came upon land slide,
which had occurred during the afternoon
at the east end Of tue deep cut, near the
foot of Plane No Q. The locomotive IN
its rapid course passed over the slide, the
conclusion throwing those on board down
an embankment thirty feet high, the To-
comotivc following. The tender and a
train of cars attached were parted from
the locomotive and remained upon the
track. All were more or less injured, and
William Berry, son Of Jacob Berry, of
Gaysport, aged about II years, was most
horribly mangled and instantly killed.
