I&HE.
AccmNr-A two horse carriage, cons
tanning Dr. Rudolph Heser and lady, Miss
Louisa Hunsaker. and a lad named Adolph
Vockerodot, met with an accident Sunday
afternoon, which was extremely frightful and
came near resulting in the loss of human
life. Within the past few days the river has
risen considerably, making it necessary for
the ferry TO land at the upper dyke, and the
road leading from the main shore to the fer
~ landing is now in places oyerilowed. DR..
Ieiser drove down to the boat just as il was
about to land, and the commotion Of the water
produced by the boat, it is thought, caused
one Of the horses to become uneasy and rest
less; tins feeling was soon communicated to
the other animal and they both commenced
backing, and in a short time precipitated the
vehicle with its living freight, over the east
side of the dyke into water fifteen feet in
depth. The excitement at this time is better
| imagined than described For a moment the
den and 50 unexpected, and the fate Of the
inmates Of the carriage SO imminent, that
those on the dyke and ferry were struck with
astonishment and terror at the sight before
them. A young man named Vim. Sinton,
who had more courage and presence of mind
than the balance, plunged into the water
and busted himself IN rescuing the la
dies, which he succeeded after
much exertion, in doing. Fortunately
all persons were saved, and it was certainly
a miraculous rescue. The team, belonging
to Mr.. Robert Warnock who keeps a livery
stable on the corner of Main and Ninth
streets, aud which was valued at three hund
red dollars, was drowned DR.. Heiser in
forms us that, had his instructions been heed
ed by those standing near, the accident nigh
have been avoided, as he repeatedly called t.
ing, but from some cause his implorings wer'
not regarded, and the accident was the re
suit Too much praise cannot be bestowe
upon young Sinton for the exertions he mad
to rescue the unfortunates. After he had Sc
the example, others then extended their aid
But for him the accident would, beyond doubt
have resulted in the loss of human life. On
Of the ladies', Mrs. Heser, was SO badl
, frightened that she tainted twice before he
husband and Mr.. Sinton succeeded in gettin
{ her to the shore.
I After Mr. Sinton had, almost unaided an
alone, saved the lives of those in the carriage
he made every effort to rescue the team, bt
! the horses had, by this time, become so bad
entangled in their harness, that he found
impossible 10 save them
The carriage aud part of the harness wei
: taken from the water yesterday.

and you will be convinced: but to take full

the place(Nselt- and you will not exclaim.
with the man from Cairo, that there were

The CExErARY --5p-in WEI thcr has fairy
come and should be improved by the owners Of
lots in the Cemetery to clear the walks Of weeds
and to beautify their grounds. Mr.. r. Camp
bell, the proprietor, is thus far sono $4,000 out
OF pocket, expended in fitting up the grounds,
and it cannot be reasonably expected that he
should be at great continued expense in improve
ments, especially as the sale Of lots has been very
limited during the past year. We unde rstand
Mr.. Campbell offers to sell lots at $l5 each until
the first Of June, after which the price will be
raised.
