publish such terrible and frghtul accidents that hap

proprietor of the lacyville Hotel, Lacyyie, Pennsy
wanna. 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
was instantly killed, and the mangled body Of young
Spring was carried home to his afflicted parents as a
corpse For thirtysx hours, said Mr. Spring, he laid
insensible-many thought him dead; but for thirty
six hours Mr.. Spring continued rubbing him with
Railways Ready Relief when he at last became sens
BILE to pain and life appeared to be infused with
IN his body.
We give the fathers evidence as the result of the
accident:
"On looking on the bleeding and manged face of my
son, my heart sickened. l never saw such horrible
sight before All his front teeth were knocked OUT
large holes were cut through his throat and chm up
into his mouth his jaw was broken, and his body was
full OF bruises and cuts every one thought nm dead,
and many said they would much rather ind him dead
than alive set to work and washed the blood from
his face and wounds, and for hrty-six hours, rubbed
his body with remedy-God bless it that Will new
er be forgotten Railways Ready Relief He then be.

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 in this city,
| 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,
"where is DR.. Wilson? Has he been here? My son
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 MIR. Allen, he
asked, "What would you recommend MIR. Allen hav-
ing the great and beneficial effects of Railways
Ready Relief in gun-shOt wounds, replied. 81 will dc
all can" So, taking of instruments, l took
out fourteen shots from his arm. His flesh, however
was completely mutiated and feared that mortfca-
ton would take place. |, however, poured a large
quantity of Railways Relief in 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 Reliefas drink. The next day he was at his
business in the telegraph office. The Doctor, on his
return surprised that Impractical person shoulo
attempt surgical operation, aud, although he pro
nounced my SURGERY botch, he admitted that there
was much virtue in the Ready Relief.
