ANOTHER SEVERE ACCIDENT "A dis
tressing accident occurred to Mr.. MICHAEL
REARDoN, on his farm in the town of
Kossuth, on Saturday morning last. Mr.
X. was engaged in burning brush on some
land that he had been clearing, and, at the
moment Of the accident, was trying to get
together some long logs that had burned in
two in the middle. He had hitched his
oxen to heavy stick, when, upon starting
them up, the butt end of the log caught
against some obstruction, and the other end
was raised and thrown over striking Mr.. r.
and fracturing his left leg, just above tue
ankle, in a most shocking manner. Dr.
III. S. BALcoM, of this village, who was
sent tor Immediately, found the injured
man suffering intensely. Both bones had
been fractured and ground together, and one
piece was protruding from the flesh. DR..
B. dressed the wound, and on Sunday Mr.
r. was brought in to Manitowoc. He is
now attended by lis family, at the residence
of Capt. MULHoLLAND, and under the pre-
fessional care of DR.. BALLOON is doing as
well as could be hoped, considering the ag-
gravated nature of his injuries. Mr.. r. is
an industrious, worthy citizen of the town
of Kossuth, who is dependent upon his
own exertions for his livelihood, and this
misfortune is a sad pull-back to him and
his family. He has many friends who
wish for his speedy recovery.
THANKs.-Our friend, Capt. ALBERT
WrTENBERG, that whole -souled brewer,
will please accept the thanks of the Pilot
Office for two kegs of Incompatible lager,
which his generosity prompted him to place
in our sanctum. Captain W. is the pros
prietor of one of the best breweries in Wis.
consn, and we are glad to record the de-
served and increasing popularity his lager
is gaining among those who indulge in this
healthful and strength giving beverage.
Nay lie always prosper. Those who once
become his customers always continue to
patronize his establishment. r.f.e .rt f

STEAMER ALpENA. I'VE are pleased to
note the increasing favor with which this
crack steamer Of the Goodrich line is re-
garded. The officers of the Alpena, when
she took her place on this route, with the
exception of MIR. BEMIs, were all strangers
to our people, but the care and solicitude
evinced by Capt. DEMAUT and his officers
for the comfort of their passengers, have
insured them speedy and well-deserved
popularity We have heard these things
remarked by several of onr citizens who
have been passengers on the Alpena, and
it gives us pleasure to record them.
