This paper has been discontinued for
the present, its proprietor, Mr.. E. B.

efficient service, during the campaign,
being one of the first papers in the

RaiIrOad Accident.

A heart-rending accident occurred
on the Marietta and Cincinnati Rail.
road, near Jones' station, a few days
since, the particulars of which, as we
learn, were these. A little boy
aged some two or three years, son ofa
German named Smith, residing near
the railroad, accompanied lis father
to his work in the woods. Becoming
tired the little fellow started for home,
and it is supposed, wandered off to the
railroad, on which from fatigue, prob
ably,he went to sleep. An extra freight
train came along in the evening and
the child awoke and raised to a sitting
posture in time for the engineer to
See him but too late to save his life.
The train was stopped, the body taken
up and after some inquiry the pa
rents were touned.
What the feelings Of those parents
must have been upon so suddenly be.
holding the lifeless and mutilatod form
of their child, those who have met
with similar bcreavements alone can
tell.
