And many were the tears we she'd
When sister went away
'No bitter tears had she to weep,
No sin to be forgiven,
But closed her little eyes in sleep,
To open them in heaven.

And Summer flowers are seen;

The following statement Of an eyewitness, a

riot in that city. After the publication of such
facts it is idle now to enquire who is responsible.

RAILROAD AcclDENr.-An accident occurred
on the Morris and Essex Railroad on Monday
evening, by which the 4 O'Clock, P. Nj. train
from New York, was delayed for several hours,
and the subsequent trains both ways thrown out
OF their regular time. A COW, which was about
a mile east Of Morristown, in the cut through
Ford's Woods, ran up the bank to escape the
engine, but fell back, and her body, after passing
under The engine and tender and first car, was
caught BY the next car and shockiugly torn to
dribIets. The car was also thrown off the track,
and the whee-truck so twisted and buried into
the ground that il was found impossible 10 re-
store it, and for want of sufficient screw-iacks,
&c, tie train did not get on its way till about
midnight. Fortunately no injury occurred TO
the passengers.--.Ne1rark .Adr.
The Bedford gazette. [volume] (Bedford, Pa.) 1805-current, 1855-08-24

This, we suppose, is fair specimen ofthe
fauntrd gratitude, and magnanmity OF the
press Of that party.

Recuscaatioa from Dromniag.-The Glas-
gov Herald mentions remarkable case of re-
srscitation from drowning. Miss Murdoch, a
young English LADY,, was bathing with girl
named Shaw. when the latter got out Of her
depth Miss Murdock placed her out Of danger,
but herself sank to HE bottom. She lay there
for fully Eve min6es, when the body was recov-
cred, cold aud inanimate. gentleman had
her conveyed TO bis house, where the body was
rubbed with brandy, mustard applied, and bath
put in requisition. To the surprise OF all she
gradually recovered. The case is mentioned as
giving encouragement for the trial OF remedial
mrasures, however cold and inanimate the body
NAV be when brought out of the water -eXcep-
ting, OF course, in cases where submersion has
taken place such length time as 10 preclude

Singular Adventure Ct a Lost child.

On Saturday, the 9th ut., child Of Henry
Nicholson. residing about two miles north OF
RockawaV, went into the woods with an older
brother to hunt the cows. The boy was only
about five years old, and by somr means got
separated from his brother, who came home
without him. The mother then started in
search of bin, but he could not be found. On
Sunday, the parents, aided by f." neighbors,
searched in vain, and in the afternoon some
seventy persons turned out to Scour the woods,
bot they found no tiace 70 him. On Monday
probably over one hundred persons were search
ing the woods IN all directions, and on Tues
dav and Wednesday, it is said, that two hun
drrd werp searching, but without discovering
him. On Thursday morning, a young man from
Denmark Forge concluded he would search,
and accordingly went from his house TO Beach
Glen, directly across the mountain, which over
looks the Glen. On the top OF that mountain,
lying on rock, he found the child alive and
bright. but very thirsty and hungry. He had
lived on berries. and told his discoeerer, that
he was looking for the red COW, and had not
found her vet. Being very timid eit is sup
posed that he bad beard the calls of the men
looking for him, and bid himself, torthey went
several times through the mountain where he
was found. For the same reason he had not
dared 10 app+oach the houses at the Glen, which
we're in sight When found hr had given up
hope Of finding his way home. He bad been
without food from Saturday noon until the next
Thursday forenoon, about FIVE days, except the
berries he picked in the woods. During that
time he had not bad single drop Of water
The little fellow was disincliued 10 tell bis adj
ventures, but called londly for bread and water,
which Were. given -sparngly at first. The
boy is now as we'll as ever.-.Aeuark (,H. j. J

HOW TO PREVENT BIRDS FROM
PULLING UP CORN.

Asit will soon be time to plant corn,
l thought would give you the meth
cd practiced by farmers in this neigh
borhood to prevent birds from pulling
it up, viz: With a bushel of seed mix
about one pint of tar, which is done by
putting it in tight vesSel, land pouring
the tar over it; then put on water warm
enough to partially melt the tar; stir up
with stick, drain off the water, and
mix in enough lime, plaster or ashes, or
. mixture Of all three, to dry The corn
and prevent it from sticking TO The hands
while planting.
1t can be done in fifteen minutes, un>
less you wish to soak the corn; it you
do, let i! soak in the tar-water.
The birds after trying a hill or two,
and finding the tar very unpslatable,
they let it alone. Even the hens, ,aiter
getting taste, give it up as bad job,
and have never known or heard of
corn treated IN this way being injured
by the worms.
BY this method, farmers may save
themselves the trouble of putting up
scare-crows, which certainly add Moth
ing to the looks Of the field
