An Awful Reaper Accident.

A chill Mangtd 10 eah.-Acci.
dents resulting from the use of reap
ing machines during the present har-
vest have been remarkable for their
frequency and severity. We have not
had occasion to chronicle ono more
horrible in its details than the follow
ing, related by the Dubuque Times:
Zone Of the most horrible reaper ac-
cidents that has ever come to our
knowledge occurred in a wheat field
three miles south Of the village Of Cas-
cade, in this county, on Thursday, Au-
gust ]. 1t seems that child but three
years of age strayed away from the
home Of its parents into wheat field
which was near by, and fell asleep
among the wheat Before long the
father of the child came along with q
reaper, driving at brisk rate He
vas startled by sharp cry, which was
lnosL instantly hushed. Looking
down to the sickle, he saw what was
once his infant child rolling before the
knives, already dead He instantly
stopped the team and got down. The
little creature was trightfuIly mangled.
The sickle had cut and mangled 1t from
head to feet. It's face " as not recog-
nizable, so terrible had been the work
Of the knives-its nose and checks and
eyes had all been lacerated. The skull!
had been cut through-and probably
this almost instantly killed the child,
as the head was evidently the first part
struck. The child screamed but once,
and then was instantly still

Head Cut OFby Il Train Of Cdrs.-The
following we clip from the Wiliamsport
Gazette of the 2Oth.
The body of John White, who lived at
English Centre, this county, was found
this Tuesday morning laying between
the railroad track opposite the old works.
The head completely severed from the
body, lay on the outside of the track. and
nearly the whole Of the face was cut away,
leaving but a portion Of one eye attached
to the skull. The remains were discover
ed by John Maroony early in the morn
ing, and an inquest was called by Justice
Craner. No evidence of foul play has
come to light up to the date of writing.
Mr.. White was heard to say about ten
O'Clock last evening that he had no bed
to sleep in, but would have one if he had
TO 20 10 SwampoodIe after it.
The deceased was about fOrtv-five or
fifty years Of age. He was attending
court as witness. His purse contained
Sl.57 and papers, and we learn from IA gen
tleman he had no more, a. he borrowed
what he had. 1t is therefore very prOha-
hle that lie came to his death in no other
way than by being crushed by the cars.

A MiraCHIOuS Cure.

Tho Catholic Standard, church
newspaper published in Philadelphia
gives the following statement of what
lis regarded as a miracle:
"We think it right to publish the
particulars of wonderful cure which
has lately come to our notice. A lady
residing in city in this state Pitts
burgh7 has been bedridden and unable
to stand upright for eight years and
six months. She has frequently been
pronounced incurable by physicians
This we know of our own personal
knowledge In fact, we know that
she had abandoned all hopes of a cure
by human means, and was thinking
only of patiently bearing her suffer
I ings in preparation for the end that
VAS impending. But the approaching
tcanonization of the blessed Paul of the
I Cross, founder of the Passionists, NOV
! ed some OF the fathers of that order.
who were in the habit Of visiting her
to afford her spiritual comfort, to have
many novenas said for her by reli-
gious communities and other piOus per.
sons, to their holy founder, TO the end
( that through his intercession, she might
be cured on the day Of his caroniza.
I ton. And it would seem that their
prayers were heard. 4 friend, in the
soundness Of whose Judgment we have
every confidence, writes to US On the
evening of June 29th she got uD and

She j. still very weak from excitement.
but there can be no doubt of the fact
We think it a duty to the newly
canonized saint, and to the Divine
Power. which is manifested at his in
terccssion, to give publicity to this
fact We can speak from personal
knowledge of the hclplessHeSs of the
infrmity and We can trust our cor
respondents Judgment as TO the reali
ty Of thc cure. We never call any
wonderful event miracle unless it has
been declared to be such by the HOLY
See, for we do not forget the lessons of
caution taught by the Holy See itself.
But we have no doubt that the cure
which we relate is a wonderful favor
altogether out of the natural order.

to induce her 10 make the endcavor to
leave her couch or not, We are not pre-

that day she arose from her bed and
walked to the window unassistcd Dr.
Fleming, who has for long time been
attending her, had pronounced her

others Of the medical faculty.

Judge Sharsyyood's Record.

The democracy is particularly fond of
rewar,Iing men with nominations who
have boxed the political compass, and if
the antece,Ients OF such men partook of
the ultra heresies of Calhoun so much the
better. We have already stated that
SharswoJl the democratic candidate for
Supreme Judge, was a renegade Whig,
and it appears previous to that he stood
in the ranks of the nulIifiers, he having
been the orator of the day at State
Rights meeting held in the Commission
er's Hail, in the Northern Liberties, Phil
adglphia, the year after the attempted
notification by South Carolina. Andrew
Jackson was then President, and it was
essentially an anti-Jackson meeting, a.
the following toasts drank on the occasion
will show:
'The Executive and his servile retain
ers touch bat bristie of the royal prerog-
ative aui tie whole stye is in an uproar.
Let them learn by the signs of the times
that the people know their rights, and
knowing will defend them"
This was an emphatic blow at old Hick-
ory aud his friends, but not more 50 than
the ninth regular toast on the occasion,
which was as follows:
''The ProclamatiOn-it bears no sem
blance To the creed of Jefferson
This referred to the celebrated procla-
nation Of President Jackson, in which he
warmed the uullifiers TO desist from their
reasonable practices, to abandon their
State-Tights heresies, and TO submit to the
laws OF the United States.
In his Grafton will be found all the
leading dognas advocated by the rebels
aud on which the rebellion was founded,
indisputaJly showing that like Ingersoll.
who would have been a tory had he lived
in the Revolution, Sharswood would have
been a rebel had he lived beyond Mason
and Dixon's line during the rebellion.
Taken in connection with his opinions
on greenbaclls, the best and safest cur
rency ever in the hands of the people,
honest Democrats must have accommO-
dating stomachs if they can swallow such
a candidate, for in doing so they condemn
Old Hickory and glorify John G. Cal
hOun. Here are the extracts-read for
