SYMPATHY OF TIE BoDY WITH AN AMPUrATED
MENBER.--At Towers Mill. in Lanesborough,
Mass, on Tuesday, young man named Jerry
Swan was caught by the arm in some machinery,
and the limb was so badly broken and mangled
that immediate amputation was necessary. This
was successfully performed, but according to tho
Pitt.feld Eagce. Mr.. Swans connection with the
discovered limb did not cease with the operation.
The Eagle says:
"On recovering from the stupor (produced by
the use of choroform), Mr.. Swan still complained
sorely of an aching hand. Late in the evening his
distress became very great, and he insisted that
the hand was cramped by being doubled up. The
limb had been placed in a small box and buried.
His attendants dug it up and Strengthened the
hand and be wns soon easier. This morning the
limb was again buried. But he soon complained
Of q sensation Of cold and great pain. 1t was ac-
cordingly taken up again, wrapped up, and dc.
posted in tomb, since which hsis again reliev-

A Now Steam Passenger Car.

A new steam passenger car 'rhc Novelty" has
just been put upon the Western Division of tho
Pennsylvania Central road. The pttsburg Chron-
icle thus speaks of it:
The car is built pretty much after the fashion
of tho cars used ON tho Birmine CHAM Passenger
Railway, aud in exterior appearance differs but
little tromt those vehicles. 1t is twenty -Gye feet
long, and will easily accommodate forty passen
gers The seats arc arranged In the same manner
as IN the street railway cars, are exceedingly well
finished and comfortable. So,no six foot Of ono
end OF the car Ia pariitoned off, and here IL placed
the engine through which the vehcle il NOV cd. -
II is but four horse power. and u level grade
tho ear makes thirty miles per hour and on mn
ordinary grade will easily accomplish twenty or
twenty five. But il it's speed with such nm engine
be extraordinary. the inconceivaby Y small quaint
~ o iuel 1t consumes il even moro 81. With
two bushels OF coal, which may bo at u cost of
seven cents. 1t will run one hundred miles -
THIS shows with what advantage cars of this do
scrption might bc introduced on our passenger
railways, aud furnishes tho most convincing ey
dence ot the chenpness Of steam as motive pow
er. even on such lines, when compared with horse
flesh
"Ihe machinery Is not observable ut all from
the outside, nor is thcre an thing in tho
OF the cur to denote thnt it IL worked hy steam,
beyond II delentc little smoke pipe ascending
through the roof which might be o silly mistaken
for stove pipe. The trip occupied us some six
hours. including various delays at the different
stations nloDg the road, where tho car WIS ar OBJ
Ject "i the greatest curiosity, and attracted cro"ds
"f wondering spectators. The "Noyelty" il the
first car of the kind ever built, and judging from
its performance yesterday we seti down as c-
o'dei success. 1t is intended for tho accommodation
ut picnic and pleasure parties, u service for which
1t is admiralty adneted.'

E-sors Fstaa and Tdaa1e:
The names Of Seward and Lincoln are fire.
quenty mentioned, by letter writer's and 9TH
ers, for President and Vice President On the
Rame ticket. There is no doubt but a multi
tude ofpeop'e would be highly pleased to have
both those leading men on the Republican tick
Ct. But there are obvious objections 10 such
In Arrangement.
In the first place, it is hardly probsble tha.
the .sational Convention would dsem it good
policy to ignore the element of Democratic an.
teceaents in the party, By placing two old line
Whigs on the ticket. i general policy has pre-
Tailed Of selecting candidates for high Office
from each wing OF the organization, which has
worked THUS far admirably in practice.
II the naxt place, there is pretty general
desire among the most discreet men in our
ranks to take one Of the candidates from a
slavo sttte, in order to avoid the cry of Sec
uonaIism that would be raised, as wns the case
in 1sas. If Seward and Lincoln were both
nominated, it would not only be alleged that
they were "sectional candidates, but both
taEeu from, one section of the party. Whatever
personal strength each might have, their run
ming on the game ticket, iDstead Of strengthen
ing, would have tendency to weaken it. Lin
coins presence on the presidential ticket
would doubtless reconcile many Of the COL
scrratire class in the doubtful Sta,cs to support
Seward. But with the double drawback above
named, the load would prove too heavy for even
Old Abe's great strength. If both cur candi-
detss axe 10 be taken from the Free States, one
of them should be man Of Democratic ante
eedents, and both should ho taken from the
doubtful States, or at least be entirely aecepta-
bic TO them. COMMON SCSsE.
