s. CoRREcTIoY.-In publishing the names
OF the American State Central Committee for
Alegany county, one name was inadvertent-
ly omitted. We think it proper therefore,
to re-pubish it. 1t consists of Mcssrs Jacob
Brown, Horace Resley, Thomas A. Keller,
Charles II. Ohr, and Lloyd Lowe.
KEEP CooL-Tho Injunction, keep cool,
frequently seems not less important as az
fecting our physical comfort, than as re-
straint upon Incorporate passion. Each
man, of his own volition, can apply sover-
eign and almost infallble remedy for violent
anger, which is, to think twice before he
speaks-to pause for reflection before he acts.
But it is sometimes little mole difficult to
keep the physical system COOL when the
thermometer ranges from 30 to 100 degrees.
For the benefit, therefore, Of all who may be
within available distance we would take oc-
casion to state that at the Ice-Cream Saloon
Of Mr. j. G. TreibGr. they can procure the
choicest Icc-Cream--the best luxury Of the
season, and tho best thing in the world to
cool the individual swetering n sea of
Precipitation. And he can furnish not only
splendid article nf ce-Cre3m but all man
ner Of other good things for the elmer man
We are under many obligations 20 our
friend, Mr.. TrciLcr, for the delicious Ice
Cream and excellent Cake soUt Us few days
since. They were amply discussed by our
selves, and the attaches Of this establish
mcnt, and pronounced of An excellt Mt quail
ty. Mr.. Trcihcr's kind remembrance of the
Printer exhibits, we think, conference.-the
disposition, and his delightfully."- lavored Ice
Cream is certainly an eloquent exponent Of
its owa merits. Try it and sec.
Man kILLEb.-On Sunday night, as the
eastern bound Express train due here at nine
o'clock, T. N was within two or three miles
OF this city, a. slight iolting Of the cars
induced the Jelicf that a man, or something
else, was upon the track, The cars were
stopped as soou as possible, y search institu-
ted, and dead man ronrd on the track -
The Express then came on to the city, and
an Engine was dis patched to bring tho man-
gled corpse to this place. His head, with
the exception of the face from The eyes down,
was cut off, both legs severed near the an
kles, one of his arms broken, and indeed, cv-
cry part of the man was horribly bruised and
cut. His name was John 7. Cavener and
he had been employed, till short time be-
fore this occurrence, as Waterman upon
the railroad.
Justice Strong summoned Jury Of In
quest and a verdict was rendered, that he
came to his doathby being run over by the
eastern bound train of passenger cars" 1t
appears that he was found asleep upon the
track, about eight o'clock, by a small color
cd boy, who walked him up and told him to
get off the track or the cars would run over
him, but he needed not the warning and in
an hour afterwar'ai he was Crushed beneath
the ponderous wheels Of the Tx press train.
A WOMAN KiLLIp.--An accident han
pcned, on Tues''ay morning last, jU$5 at the
southeastern LIMITS Of the city, by Which
German woman, named Catharine 'Ecsser
lost her life. Justice Strong sumai6iivd
corurtrs jury, and an inquest was he!t,' bvcr
the body, which resulted in verdict, that
"Mrs. Catharine Kesscr came to her death by
being accidentally run over by buFthen
train of cars" The circumstances attending
her death, as they appeared in evidence,
were briefly these: While Tie railroad en-
ployecs were engaged in making up bur-
then train, this woman went, inobsarvcd
between two of the loaded coal cars standing
on the main track to fiji her bucket with
coal. While there, the Engine was switched
of to another track for the purpose Of get
ting more cars Tor the train, and when it re-
turned, with the other cars the conclusion
produced in coupling them, knocked her
down, and the cars passed over her. She
was cut in two across the hips. One arm,
and also one leg was cut in pieces.
She Evcd for few moments alte: the &C.
cur.ente. Her cry, ooh my lifcr' uttered
in the German vcrnacular, attracted the at
tention of the conductor, who, upon going
whence the noise proceeded, found her in the
horrible condition just described.
This melancholy occurrence should serve
ss an eloquent warning to those who venture
thoughtlcssy and carelessly about the rail-
road, when the cars are in motion, and the
usual operations, in making up trains, are
going on.
CEMENT MILLs-These Mills, the proper
ty of DR.. George Lynn, which were con-
sumcd by fire several weeks ago, have been
rebuilt, and are now employed in grinding
Cement. The superior machinery used in
these Mills was built by Messrs. Tay-
lor & Co, of this city. while the brick work, |
carpenterins, &C., was done, in an excellent
manner, by The mechanics whom Mr. Lynn
has employee. about his establishment The
portion where the Eoilcr is located, and such
parts as are exposed to the fire, are construct
ed of brick. These Mills grind 900 bushels
per day, and in a little while the amount
will lie increased. The Cement is of su- |
pcrior quality.
The enterprising and energetic spirit mar
Tested by DIR. Lynn is highly commcndable,
and we should be pleased to see it initiated
by others. Cumberland possesses all the nat
ural advantages for manufacturing city,
Capital and labor ju,liciously employed in
that direction would ;,II n - .,t,,r,,
