FANNY FERN WEARING TUE BRgEcnEs.-l
last weeks N. Y. Ledger, tina. audacious
daughter OF Eve, Fanny Fern, boldly confess
es that in the recent rainy spell, which made
walking in skirts impracticable, she donned
full suit of the male FERNS habilments,
and thus equipped took long evening walk,
to her emiuent comfort and delectation. Her
husband, indeed, accompanied her, but
whether in her cast off integuments the re-
cord saith not. BE this as it may, Fanny
ayoYs IN the face of a sneering world, tina,
heneeforth she will wear the breeohes.
When last heard from, she was seeking a re :

SAD ACCIDENT Mr.. Matt. Nealley, well
known and highly respected citizen of this
county, living near Flint creek, met with n
terrible accident, day before yesterday. He
was moving, with machine, when, by the
breaking of some part of the gear, he was
thrown from his seat, and the mower passed
over hun, breaking several OF his ribs, and
lnhicllng several shocking injuries on his
head. His jaw was dslocated, his nasal bone
crushed, and his face badly cut. His physi-
clan thinks there is Il possibility of his re-
covery.
f75"On Friday last, the engineer of fast
train was arrested BY the authorities of n
"one horse town" 10 Dauphin County, Pa,
for running through the borough at a greater
rate Of speed than is allowed by their ordi-
nances. Having neglected, however, to give
publicity to these ordinances, they could not
impose any fine, and their discontinue was
aggravated by the malicious excuse Of the
engineer that she didn't know there was
town there !" This, we think, was adding
insult to injury.
