SINGULAR CAsuALrY.-The Hartford Cou.

accident which occurred at Sharp's rife fac.
tory, on Thursday afternoon last:
Willis North, one Of the workmen, was
clipping off shavings from bar or piece
OF steel, when one Of the shavings struck
him, producing at the momen, but little
feeling Of injury. Amer an examination OF
the place where the steel struck him, he re-.
marked ,ha, he believed that il had entered
his body, bu, neither he nor his fellow work.
men supposed at the time that 1t was any.
thing serious. In few moments he began
TO show signs which indicated tina, the inju.
~ was more serious than was Of first sup
posed. He was taken out OF the building,
and laid upon grass plat, where he soon
became insensible and shortly expired.
A post moriem examination Of tho body
showed that the fragment Of steel was one
and an eighth inches in length, and one
line in It's creates, breadth, tapering at each
end 10 point, and hal! line at its creates,
thickness. II was driven, poin, forward,
through three layers Of linen and one OF
flannel, cutting but one thread Of this last,
then through an inch Of flesh, passing be-
tween the second and third ribs. then ihro'
an inch Of lung lying nearly over the heart(
l, then penetrated the pericardium, grazed
the LEFT auricle, and perforated the aorta be-
hind the heart, and was found lying loose
in this great blood vessel, six or eight inch
"a from The vound in the skin. The punc-
,ure in the aoria was not larger than barely
10 admit the head Of pin, and was found
with difficulty.

~ The Buffalo Commercial Adver tiser,
TX ~, and Fillmore's organ) has the foil
owing important declaration:
:" Although there IRE soms very excellent
clauses In the twelfth article OF the Phila-
delphia platform. il can never. rs q whole,
receive the appreciation Of the North. As
nothing is at present to be gained by agita-
ting the question Of slavery, the North
would have been satisfied il the council had
left the question untouched. But II the
North is compelled 10 have creed on the
subject ofslayery, it must be either a north
ern or national creed; it cannot accept
q southern one, But national creed on
that subject is sheer impossibility and 1t
was a profound conviction Of this truth that
led us, as q friend Of the American Party, to
advise il TO let the subject Of slavery alone.
We knew that the question, il introduced
into the party, must prove IN element OF
distraction and division, for We could see no
middle ground on which platform could be
erected. We determined that we would not
stand on q southern platform we knew
that the south would not stand on q north
ern one. and deprecating sectional agitation,
as we have always done, We hoped that We
might DO permitted to act with national
party for tho accomplishment OF national
objects, without being required 10 stihe the
repuguance 10 slavery which We have al-
ways felt, and never hesitated to ayow.-
This objectional twelfth section has strong
southern leaning, and is so manifest an at
tempt TO coociliate the South by Disgusting
northern hostility to the extension Of slave
nv, that the North will not accept it,

LiQnoS SPILLED. The police Of our city,
having had information that two carts load
ed with liquor, would be in transit from
Portsmouth to Portland on Sunday night,
through the upper part Of the city. thought
they might as well take into their possession.
Repairing to the spot, they found the liquor
slowed away in barn near tho city line,
but just over in Dayton but in such q 20.
sitiou that 1t could not be moved without
being seized. 1t was in two carts, about 200
gallons, principally rot gut, in charge Of
three Irishmen. Tho owner OF the barn,
having refused to give it shelter longer, and
the proper authorities being ready to seize
when it should be moved, the teamsters
thought proper to save themselves the GER
tainty Of trouble, by staying in the heads Of
the vessels in which it was contained, which
they did, not without muttering curses loud

FREAKS OF CMrrrLs PKRsosAL.-A drayman,

charged with aiding slaves 10 escape. Six slaves
ready to euisrate North were also arrested, and
ii was discovered that the negroes OF that city
have secret society for aiding each other TO es-
cape-a form Of know nothingism that will not be
as popular among the owning as among the own.
ed classes. But the negroes are very insiiaiivs
animals, and their masters should not have set
them so dangerous an example. The slaves are
said to have their system OF signs, grips, and
can thus plot all manner Of treason against their
owners wi,hou, much fear Of detection. Spring

whose editor has recently visited Portland

"Seeing Is believing,"-and I have seen
the very hole made by the bulle, that went
through Mr.. Poor's hat. Yea, have nut
my finger into ii-no, the hat, bu, the t" hole
In the wall where IL tried to hide itself
AFTER exhibiting such bad taste. The wond-
or is, not that bit Of lead should 20 where
IL is sent, but that il should 90 as much on,
Of its natural course and all for nothing
Was IL Munchasucn who bent his to a hall
circle to shoot round bill. 10 must have
been that gun, with an addition to its crook,
edness, that perforated the hat;-otherwisc
the story Is more crooked than the gun
II its ingress had been at the top Of the
hat and its egress at the toe OF the boot, is
course would not have been more unnatural
than that sscribed to IL by the State Of
Maine. You might as well stand in the
door Of the Mail Office and shoot rat be-
hind the Post Office. But man has testi'
