Miss Sarah E. Newman has been ap-
pointed Postmistress at Moorefeld, in
the place of Rev. Nr. Champion, re-
moved.
On the 9TH inst, Susan, daughter of
Mr.. Jefferson Watkins, while feeding n
surgar-cane mill, was so unfortunate as
to have her right hand caught by the
cogs Of the wheel and before she could
be relieved, her hand was so badly
crushed as to render amputation OF
some of her fingers necessary.
4 son of Mr.. George MillesOn, ex-
Sheriff of this county, was severely
wounded a few days since by cradling
scythe, as very nearly to cause his death
by hemorrhage. Young Milleson and
his brother were together cutting corn
and buckwheat, growing in the same
field. The wounded lad was at the
moment of the accident cutting up n
hill of corn, when the brother with
full sweep of the cradle with which he
was cutting buckwheat by his
side, struck the right leg of the lad
about midway between the ankle and
the knee, infictinga very deep and dam
gerous wound, severing the tibial artery.
He is now recovering.
Our worthy fellow-citizcn, Mr.. John
Wolford, living near Pleasant Dale, was
so unfortunate few days since as to
fracture both bones of his right leg.
The accident was caused by his step
ping upon rolling stone while running
at full speed. Mr.. Wolford fell to the
ground, rs though he were shot, and
soon discovered that he had broken both
bones of his leg. Assistance was soon
procured, when he was carried TO his
residence not far distant.
DR.. Snyder was called to the case.
The limb was set and placed i'll an ap-
propriate instrument. Mr.. Woltord is
daily improving, and his friends will be
rratiiied to know that he will soon be
restored to the pursuit of his usual busl-
ness.
Mr.. John Grace, a son of Jacob Grace,
deceased, of the village of Springfield, OF
this ounty, met with very serious
and very nearly fatal accident, causing
the amputation of his leg. Mr.. Grace
WAS at the time of the accident, stand
! ing upon the platform OF a thrcshing
machine. driving the horses attached to
it, when his foot slipped through the
platform, and was caught by the master
wheel of the machine, and so entirely
crushed, as to render the amputation OF
his limb unavoidable.
DR.. Snyder amputated the limb with
the assistance of Drs. Moore and Bowen,
of Springfield. The case rapidly mended
and the natural limb is now replaced by
an artificial one.

We are informed by our Postmaster
that the Lewisburg mail, which left
here Wednesday morning of last week,
was robbed at Lewis, fifty miles east of
this that evening. While the carrier
was at supper all the pouches were
stolen They were afterwards found
near there, cut open and rified of their
contents. No clue, so far as we know,
has been found as to how, or by whom
the act was perpetrated. We hope the
matter may be investigated and the
thieves properly punished. We have
had no.mail on that route since the rob-
berry.

The deep interest manifested by the
Democratic candidates themselves for
the success of our ticket ut the late
election has been the subject of univer-
sal remark. 1t is true that, so far as
the State ticket is concerned, there was
little of personal ACKNOWLEDGEMENT to be
secured by our triumph but this fact
only serves to show the purity OF motive
and honesty Of purpose that actuated
the men under whose leat Q ship the
Democrats were marshalled, aud the
constant, energetic and Jealous efforts
of our candidates have deserved, as
they have elected, the warmest COM
mcndation. While il would seem al
most invidions to give special promi-
hence 70 an individual where the labors
of all were so untiring and so praise
worthy, we cannot omit u reference to
the indefatigable eXertions of the
distinguished gentleman whose name
heads this article. Abandoning for
time the emoluments of a
lucrative profession and that domestic
comfort which at his time of lie Is
specially priced, Colonel SMITH en-
tered the late canvass and conducted 1T
TO the close, for the sole purpose of
aiding the triumph of those principles
to which his party is pledged. He ap-
piled to the discussion of the great
questions of the day, fund of common
sense such as few men possess, and in
his expositions of political measures
and political men he brought to bear
the results of long experience, deep
research, and mature intelligence. Had
the day yet come when prejudice can
he beaten down by conviction,
and deep-seated abuses removed
by the efforts of the champions
OF truth, no extension of power would
have been granted to the now dominant

De TocaUEvILLE, in his work on
America, gives this forcible sketch: "a
newspaper can drop the same thought
into thousand minds at the same mo-
ment. A newspaper is an adviser who
does not require to be sought, but who
comes to you briefly every day Of COM
mon veal, without distracting your
private affairs. Newspapers, therefore,
become more necessary in proportion as
men become more equal and individuals
more to be feared. To suppose that
they only serve to project freedom would
be to diminish their Importance; they
maintain civilization"

From the Piqua Democrat.l
1866.

The next regular election for Prcsi-
dent will be in 1865, if the Radicals do
not succeed in destroying the country
! before that time. The leaders of that
party have commenced arranging their
plans for success at that election. The
first great object is to keep the South
ern States unrepresented in Congress,
and they try to peevcnt them from
taking part in the Presidential election.
the Radicals have no hope of receiving
any favor of any of the Southern States.
Hence their action. 1t is not the re-
suit of principle, but of lust for power.
1t is the right and privilege of those
States to participate in that election,
and if their Electoral vote, if counted,
should elect to the Presidency man
who would not havc been elected with
ont such vote, then we Will guarantee
that the vote will be counted and the
man so elected, WILL BE inaugurated.
The great danger that our Radical
friends apprehend is the disintegration
of their party in the Northern States.
Two months before the recent election,
they were alarmed for their prospect in
this State, so great was the manifest
deInOTallZatlOn OF tnc 1nelnDtlS OI luc
party But, through threats, proscrip-
ton, and severe party discipline, aided
by frauds and base Misrepresentation,
they succeeded in retaing for the time,
most all of their old party friends. To
this rule however, we are glad To be
able to state that there are many hon
orable exceptions. In order 70 keep
their men in line, they have to keep
them in constant excitement-constant-
" on the move, and generally on the
"double quick." Whenever the masses
OF the Republican party can DC permit
ted by their party leaders to have time
for reflection, then will the organiza-
tion of the party become defunct-it
will only livein history. The fanatical
leaders of this Radical party are aware
of this fact. Hence their thorough sys-
TEN of base falsehood upon their politi-
cal opponents. Whenever the excite
ment in the country becomes too low
for their healthful prosperity, we will
hear of riots as in Memphis and New
Orleans, gotten up by them in different
parts of the country, and then blamed
on President johnson. Excitement is
