Sad accident at Waverly.-We learn from
gentleman Of this place that during the latter
part of last week very sad accident occurred
in Waverly. The particulars, as far as our in
formant was acquainted, are as follows: A
gentleman Of that village, started from his
dwelling to 60 across the street for pail of
water. In the street he met an acquaintance
with whom he stopped to talk, and while stand
ing there load Of lime passed him. In a
few moments he went on, got his water and
was returning when another team came along
and as it reached the spot where he had so
recently stood, suddenly sheered off, appar-
rently frightened at something lying in the
road. Upon hooking for the object Of the
horses fright, the gentleman found his child
lying in the road, literally cut through and
through by the wheels of heavy loaded
wagon. The general supposition is, that the
child unperccived by the father, had attempt
to follow him when he went after the water.
and reaching the center of the road had fallen
down, and the wagon, supposed to he that
containing the lime, had passed over it with
out the knowledge of the driver or cry from
the child. We cannot give the name or age
of the child. a 49, ~~aa<. y

to the generosity of our citizens. Mrs. CR,sr

and furniture were completely Destroyed
Mrs. c. had her collar-bone broken, besides
receiving other injuries that have made her a
cripple since that time One Of the little BOYS

family were bruised more or less. Mrs. C.

no means of providing for their wants, and
unless she can receive aid, they will suffer
for the necessities of life. If any one that is
able will but give little, either in cash,
clothes, furniture, or any other articles ncc-
essary to house keeping, they can render this
lady and her family comfortable for the win
ter which will soon be upon them. We hope
