When the Times once sees the official vote

closely contested in some of the Congress

the result; besides there is a soldiers vote
in some cases to be looked after. However,
there is no use of Disgusting the fact, that
the next Congress will be more Radical and
revolutionary than the present one. We
may anticipate clustering times. Our affairs
are in bad shape and in ruinous hands.

Accident.

Our neighbor, Mr. Caleb Greasy, we are
sorry to learn met with painful accident on
Tuesday last He was employed in the Car
Shop of Messrs. Jackson & Woodin, of this
place, and in an unguarded moment placed
his left hand upon the cog wheels of some
part of the machinery, when it was drawn
in, and three of his fingers badly mangled
The two middle ones were amputated by DR..
Rittenhouse. Some hopes are entertained
of saving the forefnger.
Since the above was in type we are called
upon to chronicle another accident, which
occurred on Thursday morning, to Mr.
George Spencer, of Espttown, also an EN-
ployee In Messrs. Jackson and Woodin s
Car Shops. He was engaged in running the
circular rip saw and had stopped it for a few
minutes to attend to some outside work.
On returning, the saw was started by some
unaccountable means, supposed since to be
by the lad who does the oiling ofthe machin-
ery) and caught his hand, severing all the
upper cords connecting with the fingers. A
portion of the bone was taken out of the
third joint Of the fore finger and the balance
of the hand skillfully dressed by Dr. r. H..
Little, of this place. The patient bore the
pain with commendable patience.
Since the occurrence of this last accident,
we have learned that Mr.. Palmer, also had
one of his thumbs sawed off at the same
shops on Saturday last.-Be71cick Gazette

Our Relations With Mexico.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-THE Herald s
Washington special dispatch says there was
a meeting of the Cabinet yesterday, at which
the President produced portions of his an
nual message on Mexican matters. IF Min
ister Campbell and General Sherman find
that neither Maximilian nor the French In
tend to leave Mexico, the President will rec
ommend vigorous action to hasten their de-
parture. A belief is entertained that the
Emperor Napoleon desires Macmillan to
remain in Mexico until the French troops
are withdrawn. The Imperialists state that
Macmillan went to Orizaba to obtain news
of his wife, but it is still believed he has
gone there to embark for Europe.

enlivened by these meteoric lights dropping
and starting out from all points of the hori-
zon, hundreds of thousands in numbers,

GOOD ADvICE.-Never, saysanexchange,
use a lady's name in an improper place, at
and improper time, or in mixed company,
Never make assertions about her that you
think are untrue, or illusions that you feel
she herself would blush to hear. Many a
worthy woman's character has been forever
ruined and her heart broken by lie, manu-
factured by william, and repeated where it
should not have been, and in the presence
of those whose little judgment could not de-
ter them from circulating the foul and fend-
ish report. Respect the name of woman,
for your mother and sisters are women and
syou would have their fair name untarnish-
ed, and their lives unembittered by SANDER
Gus biting tongues, heed the i'll your own
words may bring upon the mother, the sis
ter, or the wife of some fellow creature.
