ACCIDENT AT LELAND-A friend writing
to US on business from Leland, in this
county, incidentally mentions the follow
ing incident:
A serious accident occurred near this
place on Sunday last. Col Montague, an
old resident, living about three-fourths of
mile from Leland, (not altogether
thoughtful of his years, though in many
instances outstripping his younger COM
peers,) had just started out for sleigh
ride with a load of young folks; but before
they had proceeded great distance, their
excursion was suddenly arrested by the
cries of the Colonel, that he was hurt
that he should die, &c 1t was soon found
to be no joke, for blood was flowing freely.
The forward runner of the sleigh had
struck stick and thrown it upward in
such manner as to hit the Col. on his
nither seat, and the forward motion of the
sleigh drove the splintered stick into the
solid flesh some six inches. Suffice it to
say that the brave Col. was Immediately
waited upon by the ever laugh-loving Dr.
Hinkley his wound washed and dressed
| in apple-pie order, and ere the holy days
are over the Col. expects to forget his sor-
rows, and to stand A No. /, the bravest OF
| the brave

Democratic County Convention.


There was quite fair attendance of
delegates at the Democratic County Con-
vention, which met in this city on Tues
day, and the best feeling characterized
the proceedings throughout. Resolutions
re-affirming the Cincinnati platform and
of instruction in favor of Douglas were
passed, and eleven delegates and eleven
alternates appointed to the State Conven-
ton to meet in Springfield on the 4th
prox.
We have, however, been most unfortu-
nate about getting the proceedings. Our
friend BARRETT, of the La Sale Standard,
his hurry to get home on Tuesday evening,
gave us no time to make a copy of them
but promised to forward them in a print
ed slip on Thursday On Wednesday
night however, occurred the calamity (no
ticed elsewbere,) by which the Standara
office w's destroyed by fire, and with il
have gone, we presume, the official pro
! ceedings of the Convention.
fortunately, our memory ana That o.
others, has preserved the names of tht
delegates to Springfield that were appoint
ed, and beyond these we fear the doing.
1 of the convention are among the res perdi
| ta-things forever lost The delegate!
were, Gen. Jacob Fry, John Hise, T. Lyl'
/ DicEey, David Green, Asher Markham, J
W. Brown, Jno. L. Mccormick, II. G. w
Leland We have not been able to get tn,
names of the alternates.

how to weep. Love thy mother!
