SERIOUS AccIDENT.-On Tuesday last,
as the workmen at the Crown Point
Marble Works, were engaged in loading
a heavy block of marble, the derrick
gave way and fell, striking F. p. Fletch-
err, Esq, of Bridport, on the head,
knocking him down, and falling on him,
broke his ann below the elbow, and
bruised, very badly, his left leg from the
knee down. DR.. blanchard of Bridport,
was speedily summoned, and skillfully
dressed the injured parts. The wound
on the head is only scalp wound-the
skull is not fractured. On Wednesday
when our informant saw him, although in
good spirits, Mr.. Fletcher was not able to
be removed. He is very seriously injur-
ed. The doctor does not regard the in
juries as likely to prove fatal. Mr..
Fletcher is engaged in developing a black
marble quarry at Crown Point. Since
the above was in type we learn that Mr..
Fletcher is gaining rapidly. In fact he
was in Middlebury yesterday on business.
PoRr HENRY.-Mr. James Cain. of
Burlington, recently stumbled and fell
upon the corner of a plank, at Port Hen
ry, and was instantly killed.-On the 9TH
instant Mr.. James Cross came to his
death by the fall of a stone that took off
the top of his skull, while he he was at
work in the Moriah ore-bed, No. u. His
remains started for Canada on Tuesday
last.-On Monday of last week, Mr.
George Pelky was assaulted and bruised
by unknown parties, so badly, that there
is little hopes of his recovery. His as
sailants have fed.-At the election here
last Tuesday it was quite lively, and the
political animosities rose higher and high
er with the excitement of the contest.
There were several quarrels here, and
quite serious assault upon Abel Huntly
by William Dodge.-Moriah gave so
Democratic majority. - Mr.. Jonathan
Wetherby has recently built new house
at the cost of S102,500, deer park at
$4,000, and horse.barn at $4,000
Thirty new buildings have gone up here
this season, and forty more are to be
built. W.
Stedman's Washer in the West.
The following letter speaks for itself:
AMITY, WASHINGTON Co., Pa, |
Oct II. 1870.
Mr.. s. b. ROCKWELL,
DEAR SIR Il made u purchase of
the right to make and vend o. F. Sted.
mans Washer for Green county Pa,
Sept, 10Th. 1 hired tinman to come
to my house and make the washer 1
have been very successful. have sold
forty washers at $40 each and have more
contracted for. have sold as many as
seven in day. | think l can sell by
perseverance five hundred in this county.
have been enlisted in the cause of
patent rights, but never did | see little
thing take down the people of Western
Pennsylvania as this washer does.
1t is in my opinion the biggest little
thing in the United States of America.
There never was an invention gotten
up that afforded such large profits for so
little money invested, or so much help at
so little cast.
This washer is certainly the wonder Of
the century
Washing machines have heretofore been
an entire failure, as they required as
much soap, as much water, and far more
labor, besides the rubbing action of the
clothes.
Now Stedman's Washer saves soap,
water, time, and the wear and tear Of
garments, and what is Of far greater con.
sequence, it saves the constitution and
health of our dear wives and daughters,
and promotes longevity and prevents all
that is loathsome and dreaded on washing
days.
Now. Stedman's Washer inaugurates a
reign of cheerlulness, and we see smiling
wives and pleasant looking daughters
wherever it is used
can recommend your general agents
to you; think them worthy Of admira-
ton and the fullest confidence.
Hoping that we all may be crowned
with large success in this humanitarian
work. | remain your humble servant,
SAMUEL BRADEN
