A PAINFUL AocIDENr-Two BOYS

A PAINFUL AccIDENr-Two BOYS
DROWNED. On Sunday morning,
June I'd, two boys, cousins, named
Garrison and Cissna, were drowned
in small branch. which had been
greatly swollen by the previous nights
rain, in Pike County, near Taylors-
VILE They were of the ages of five
and six years. They went to feed
some pigs, and one of them waded
across the branch and the other, at.
tempting to follow, got into a hole
some eight feet deep. His cries of
terror brought the other to his assist
ance, and both were drowned The
mother of one of them hearing their
cries, rushed to their rescue and
plunged into the stream, and would
have persisted had not little son of
eight years caught her by the dress
and dragged her from the water. The
bodies were recovered and buried on
Sunday afternoon. The affair caused
great excitement in the whole neigh
borhood for miles around. We OBJ
tanned these facts from Mr.. David
Sparks, who was passing by the place
Of burial with DR.. Catch while the
two children were being Inferred.

In q country where the natural desire Of
the people is to reach the highest point in
ART, it is very difficult for success to be OBJ
tanned without the most arduous labor. Pub
lie opinion is extremely exacting and not OIL
ways just; but often unjust and cruel criti-
cism mas produced the most beneficial re-
sults; the greatest improvements have been
made under continued discouragements, and
In many successful efforts defeat seemed
certain to all except those concerned. In no
one branch of ar : has there been more trials
md failures-and in no single instrument is
there so many different parts to perfect in
order to make the whole q success as the Pr
aro-Forte; this is always attended with
great expense-requiring large capital and
tienRperseverence. G~RovENsTEEN s. Co..
