Lovely boy, how brief thy stay.
Short and hasty was thy day,
Ending soon thy journey here,
Pain and grief no more to bear.
Pillowed on Savior's breast,
Sweetly sleep and softly rest
Soon the morning shall restore,
The buried child we now deplore.
May these fond parents wait in faith and
hope till they, like little DAME, may stand on
that blessed shore and sing their sufferings o'er.

SERIOUS ISJURY.-We have been informed
that. on Monday the Goth instant, Mp Green
wood Eaton, engaged in hauling logs on the
Moshannon for Mr.. A. J. Ames,) met with a
rather serious accident. He had three logs
coupled together that would scale about 1000
feet, which he was drawing down the hill with
an OK team. The logs started to run upon
and endanger the team. Mr.Ames being close
bT, ran and loosed the oxen from the logs, and
called to Mr.. Eaton to take care of himself
whereupon he stepped aside, threw his arm a
round a small tree, and standing on his right
foot on the root on the side next the road. As
the first log approached him it ran over a root,
and when it had passed its centre the front
end dropped down on his foot, the sharp edge
cutting it almost off just below the ancle on
ly a few tendons and a small piece of integu.
ment on the sole holding it on. DR.. Campbell
of Kylertown, was Immediately called to dress
the wound, who, upon examination, found the
injury so serious, as to deem ampntation ne
cessary to save his life. On Tuesday DIR. r.
V. Wilson of Clearield, was summoned for
consultation, who freely and frankly concur
red in the opinion that amputatiou was indis-
pensabIe; and accordingly the limb was taken
OH below the knee, by Drs. Campbell and Will
son. The patient was completely under the
ihnuence OF Ether, and he says he recollects
nothing of the operation, whatever. He is
doing well, so far.
