Sad Accident.

On Friday evening Of last week, Mr..
Moses Clough, started from North Troy
village about five o'clock, to return to his
home in Potion, G. E. about three miles
distant. At nine o'clock of the follow
ing day he was found in the road, dead,
but short distance from his dwelling
1t appears that as he was passing through
a piece of woods in North Jay, he fell
from his wagon toward his horse and got
his left leg somehow entangled in the
cross bars of the thills. In this condi-
ton ne was dragged over a rough stony
road for about a half mile, to the place
where he was found. He had steady
horse, and appearances indicate that he
was some time going this distance, as it
was noticed where the horse stopped and
fed by the road side. The wagon was
found against large rock where the
horse became disengaged from it by the
breaking of the whiffletree and reins, the
latter being wound about the mans neck.
which was broken. Mr.. Clough had on
at the time, two coats, thick vest and
two shirts, all ofthese being worn through
on the back, and his right side most
shockingly mangled, although no bones
were broken.
Mr.. Clough has been impotent for
several years, having had but little use
OF either of his legs. Various opinions
are entertained as to the probable cause
of his falling from his wagon, many ex-
pressing the belief that he had fit, 9th
ers that it was an accident arising from
the impaired state of the road. He
leave wife and large family of chill
dren to mourn his untimely death and
shed the tears of affection to his memory.
Papers in this and neighboring states
will confer favor on his friends who are
scattered far and near, by copying this
notice.

er, literally supplying his son with mon
ey. which enabled him to indulge those
vicious propensities to which be Is repu-
ted to have been addicted. The excite
ment in the neighborhood of the tragedy
is said to be intense. Great numbers OF
people visited the locality yesterday, and
the house was surrounded by a great
crowd, watching every movement, and
inquiring constantly for particulars.
What could have melted young Gould
ey to the commission of such dreadful
crime, it is difficult to conjecture. The
murder of his father alone might not have
seemed strange, however unnatural but
when his unoffending mother, his young
brothers, and the servant girls fall be-
meath his cruel arm, the mind is at a loss
to conceive how an impulse sufficiently
fiendish to incite to such atrocities could
find place in the human heart. The
most reasonable, and at the same time
the most charitable supposition is, that
the young mans excuses had dethroned
his reason and given over his mind to the
sway of horrid and desperate imaginings
which found vent in one of the most
shocking tragedies that has ever occur.

ANOTHER Big CaoP OF CoRN.-Mr.
VIM. P. Dodge of his town, informs US
that he has raised he past season from
an acre and half # ground, PIG bush
els of sound corn, besides 16 bushels OF
culls, making in Ill 232 bushels. A
pretty good yield, We should think. We
are afraid some of Nh. Dodge's neighbors
will have short crop.
Judge Falbridge has also raised $50
bushels of King Philip corn from one
acre ana half of land.

For FE8IALEs.-It is a lanentabe fact that so
large number Of Females are afflicted withIrreg-
ularties, either profuse or suppressed, which rap
idly and surely undermine their health, shorten
their lives, and ofttimes renders them unfit for
those duties in life for which an all-wise Creator
has formed them. This state of things need not
exist when DR.. WHEATING's FEMALE REGULA-
TING PILLS are so sure to bring relief. They are
composed of materials, harmless to the most del,
icate constitution, but efficient in the highest det
gree in eradicting that train of diseases incident
to the sex, originating from Irregularities. They
are no Nostrum, but claim for themselves virtues
resulting from the use of those most valued REM
edies prescribed by the highest medical authori
ty, Ancient or Modern. Many Females give way
to dependency, imagining themselves in con-
firmed decline. To such we would confidently
recommend these PILLS, believing il there is a
power in any remedy to effect permanent cure

YORK. We find but little in the New
York papers to add to the very full re-
port given by telegraph of the Gouldey
tragedy. The EUening Post says ::
" Nr. Gouldey is about fifty years of
age. He is trustee in the Methodist
Church, of which Rev. IHr. Crawford,
'i'0 man "iio was S's,s---=--u-za4z-z-s7--s7
an insane man week ago last Sunday
evening, is pastor. He was formerly a
lumber merchant, and had retired from
business with an ample fortune. He
was esteemed by his church as an exem-
plary Christian, and by all who knew
him as an upright and honorable citizen.
His wife and daughter, we believe, are
also members of the same church.
Frank, the murderer, was awakened
by the revival last winter, and joined the
church on probation, or on trial. as it is
more generally called. But he soon ap-
parently lost all interest in religion, and
returned to the habits which his father
hoped he had reneunced forever. 1t is
said his father has urged him to attend
family prayer in the evening, but that he
has of late refused to do so.
But Frank is spoken of BY former ac-
quaintances as good fellow They say
he was never regarded as a bad young
man, although he was rather wild. 9th
ers say the family feared his habits would
lead him to some desperate act.
About nine o'clock last night, Mr.
Campbell, who lives next door to the
scene Of the murder, saw him at the cor
ner of Thirtieth street and Eighth aven.
ue, apparently much excited, carrying
something in his hand wrapped in paper
and going hurriedly towards his bome.-
He believes it to have been the Ratchet.
Subsequent to this, however, he was
seen in Showers oyster saloon 355
Eighth avenue, where he took refresh.

was in company with son of the late
DR.. Doane, and Nr. Horn, a nephew o.
Mayor Tiemann. He made an appoint,
ment while there to meet an acouain.
lance to-day.
The Ratchet which he used in the exc.
cution of his murderous designs is dull
and has the appearance of having beer
used foa opening boxes.
The knife is an ugly weapon-a butch
er's knife-with an inch and half blade
six inches long and four-inch handle
1t looks like new weapon, and has late
ly been made very sharp.
1t is stated that Mr.. Gouldey, in select
ing business for his son Francis, frs
placed him in lawyers Office, but as he
did not like the profession, situation
was procured for him in a hardware
store. 1t is said that the youthful muir
derer was a person of reckless habits
and according to one of the wounded girls
went to Staten Island on spree on the
morning of Tuesday, and the inference
is that he returned in very bad physi
cal and mental condition. Mr.. Gouldey
senior, is spoken of as an indulgent faith

SPECIAL NOTICES.
DR.. Wistar's BaIsam of Wild Cherry.

Where the above preparation is known, 1t IS so
well established as an infallible Remedy for the
cure of Coughs, Colds, Sore Throat, Hoarseness,
Bronchitis, Splitting of Blood, Pain in the Breast,
Group, HhoQping Cough, and every form of Pull
MoNARY COMPLAINT, that it were work of SUI
pererogation to speak of its merits.
Discovered by well known physician more
than twenty years since, it has by the wonderful
cures it has effected been constantly approaching
in public favor, until its use and reputation are
alike universal; and it is now known and cherish
ed by all (and their "name is legion'') who have,
been restored to health by its use as the GREAT
REMEDY for all the diseases which it processes to
cure.
Sir James Clark, physician to Queen Victoria
has given it as his opinion that
CONSUHP TON CAN BE CURED
The whole history of this Medicine fully con-
firms the opinion of that eminent man. Thou
sands can testify, and have testified, that when
all other remedies had failed, this has completely
cured; that when the sufferer had well nigh des-
paired, this has offered immediate relief; that
when the physician had pronounced the disease
incurable, this has removed it entirely.
The virtues of this BaLsan are alike applicable
to cure a slight Cold or Confirmed Consumption
and its power as a safe, certain, speedy, pIeaSan
and efeetualremedy cannot be equalled.
