One Step from the Alter to the Grave.

One week ago Mr.. Tony Laukoff was
married to Miss Agnes Krieft, both of
Newport, Kentucky. The young and
happy couple enjoyed their honeymoon
on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, deter
mining that on Monday morning they
would settle down to a commencement OF
their new life with all its business, res
possibilities, trials, &c. On Monday
morning they rose at an early hour, and
robing themselves in their every day at
tire, went to breakfast Each complained
OF feeling seriously i'll, aud neither could
cat The husband was compelled almost
Immediately to retire to bed, and in few
minutes his wife followed him. A phy
sician was sent for, who, upon arriving
in the sick chamber, aud after examina
ton of the sick patients, pronounced their
disease the cholera. Immediate atten
ton was given to them, but during the
day they continued to grow worse, and at
four and half o'clock the husband died
Ills body was removed to an adjoining
room. His wife was also in collapse
condition, and at eight and a half O'Clock
she too followed her husband into the
dark valley and shadow of death. The
bridegroom and bride were robed in their
wedding clothes, and on Tuesday both
were buried in the same grave. = Gin.

To accomplish this, the liver and stomach

DRAKE PILLS cleanse the stomach of all
bilious or mucous accumu.ations and, by
using the Sea Weed Tonic in connection,
the appetite Is restored

Distressing Accident This Korning-Fa

Quite a serious accident occurred about
half past nine o'clock this morning Oh
Section 10, Of the Morris and Essex r

near proving fatal to number OF men
employed on the works. Upon hearing
of the accident, which had been consid-
erably exaggerated, we FASTENED to the
spot. 1t appears that car. in the deep
cut at that place, which had been loaded
with heavy stone, got off the track, and
an attempt had been made to raise the
rear end by means of derrick which
stood close by In doing so one of the
guy ropes broke and the derrick fell

A Female Candidate.

Elizabeth Cady Stanton, one of the
women who adorn the So
cety of New York, presents herself rs a
candidate for Congress ia the Eighth
Congressional District OF that State. She
announces as her platform ''frec speech,
free press, free men and free trade, 'and says
that as neither party agrees with her up
on all these principles, it is necessary for
her to 60 to Congress at an independent
woman. Mrs. Stanton does not explain
how she intends to get round that provis-
ion OF the Constitution which says that re-
presentativesi Congress ''shall have same
publications requisite for electors of the
most numerous branch Of the State Leg
islature." As the Constitution of New
York confines the right Of voting to males
it would seen that Elizabeth is ineligible
But this, We presume, will be small dif
ficulty, the most serious obstacle being
the election. Ia her card Mrs. Stanton
is eloquent about the wrongs of women
of which one of the most serious is being
taxed without representation. All these
matters will be set right when she gets
into Congress, aad probably not before.
