publish such terrible and frghtful accidents that hap
pened to two young men the past month. The frs,
was that of young Mr.. Spring, the Oft D. Spring
proprietor Of the Lacyville Hotel, Lacyve, Pennsy
vania. Young Spring. while riding on the tow path
of the canal his horse became frightened and plunged
down precipice twenty-five feet deep. The horse
Spring was carried home to his afflicted parents as
corpse. For thirtysix hours said Mr. Spring. he laid
insensbe..many thought him dead but for thirty.
six hours Mr.. Spring continued rubbing him with
Railways Ready Relief when he at last became sensi-
BILE to pain, and life appeared TO be infused with
IN his body.
We give the fathers evidence as to the result of the
accident: 'sr
"On looking on the bleeding and mangled face of my
son, my heart sickened. l never saw such horrible
sight before All his front teeth were knocked out
large holes cut through his throat and chin up
into his mouth his jaw was broken and his body was
full OF bruises and cuts every one thought him dead
and many said they would much rather find him dead
than alive set to work aid washed the blood from
his face and wounds, and for thrtysx hours, rubbed
his body with remedy-GOd bless it THAT will new
er be forgotten Railways Ready Relief He then be-
came sensible to pain 1t seemed as if new life had
entered his manged body. After this, Il applied the
Ready Relief every five minutes for three days and
two nights. To the cuts and wounds ! applied Rad
ways Ready Relief and sweet milk. He is now near.

The other accident to which we refer is that of Mr.
Steadman, operator in the telegraph office at Mono
ton, N. b. Mr. E. s. Allen. who was present at the
time the accident occurred and is now in this city re-
ports the fOllowing:
While in the store of Messrs. Miles & Wood, of
Moncton, an old gentleman rushed in, calling for
doctor. "For Heavens sake" said he to Mr. Miles,
is shot, and am afraid that before the Doctor can be
found his arm will require amputation." "The Doc.
tor" said Mr.. Miles, "has gone to Coquon, and will
not return until late - and turning to Mr.. Allen, he
asked, "What would you recommend Dir. Allen hay
ing seen the great and beneficial effects of Railways
Ready Relief in gunshot wounds, replied. 81 will do
all can" So, taking case of instruments, took
out fourteen shots from his arm His flesh, however,
was completely mutated and feared that mortifca-
ton would take place. !, however, poured large
quantity of Railways Reliefin the wounds, and bath
ed the whole length of the arm with It, then satu-
rated piece OF cotton with the Relief and bound up
his wounds. then gave him teaspoonful of the
Ready Relief as drink The next day he was at his
business in the telegraph office. The Doctor, on his
return surprised thatan Impractical person should
attempt surgical operation, and, although he pro-
nounced my SURGERY botch he admitted that there
was much virtue in the Ready Relief
