Serious Accident.

Mr.. Lem. Ma8Ianness and Mr.. T.
F.Winders met with a serious acci
dent last Sabbath, from the running
away of span of horses, while on a
visit to sick friend near Upper
Sandusky. Their team took fright
at some saw logs, lying by the road
side, just as they were in the act of
turning a corner. They started so
suddenly that Mr.. McMannes, who
was driving, had not time to tighten
his hold on the lines. AS the car
riage turned over, both gentlemen
were caught in the wheels, and drag
ged some distance. The horses ran
about half mile and were only stop
ped by the lines becoming twisted
around the axle-t tree. Mr.. Winders
though bruised considerably, was
not much the worse. Mr. McManness
was not so fortunate however, as
his ankle was found to be disloca
ted. He was taken to the "Pierson
House," Upper Sandusky, where
DR.. .McConnellreduced the dislocation
and he was able to be brought home
on the train Monday evening.-Find

PoIsoN1Na.-The families of Gen
j. II. Young, Mr.. S. W. Hit and
Mr.. s P. Smith we're poisoned about
two weeks ago, by eating unwhole-
some herbs, prepared as greens.
The English Dock, one of the finest
greens ever known, was probably
mixed with our common Rhubard
leaf; and as the latter is known to
be powerful poison the effects.are
attributed to it.
Gen. Young's family were sue
cessively taken violently ill, and,
with the exception of Mrs. Young,
vomited freely and relieved their
stomachs of the poison. Mrs.
Young was nauseated and continued
in that disagreeable state for days,
and finally commenced vomiting.
For three days the doctors were un
certain how the case would termin.
ate, but we are pleased to know that
she now is out of danger.
In the other families all were re.
lieved within a few hours except
Lizzie Hit. who suffered agonies
similar to those described in Mrs
, Youngs case, and she is now re-
covering Urbana Gazette.

Baugher married very worthy
young woman at Danville. He re-
mained there, and did nothing for
his own support, or that of his wife.
About a month since he reported
that he had obtained a situation in
Mansfield, and had rented house
there. He had all his goods packed
up, also all the goods of his wife,
also the provisions &c. on hand,
had them hauled to Loundenville.t to
be shipped toMansfeld, and told
his wife that he would take them
on, and be back for her in three or
four days. He has not been seen
in that county since, and the goods
have disappeared. He went to his
fathers near Titfin, O. and reported
that his wife had died of consum-
ton. His deserted wife is at Dan

vetoed the whole batch Of bills re-
Gently passed by the Tweed Legis-

These bills we're hurried through
without consideration or discussion
as a sop to the lobbyists who had
been grinding away at the Legisla-
ture all winter, and the aggregate
amount of the subsidies they grant
ed was such as to make the hearts
of the tax payers sink within them
Governor Hoffman has done the
State a valuable service by his action

Change in County Auditors Term.

One of the laws passed by the
Legislature st its late session is one
changing the expiration of the term
ofAuditor from March to November.
Under the old system, County Au-
ditors go out of office without an
opportunity to close up their busi-
ness and complete their settlement.
The change closes the term after the
entire business of the year is COM
pleted. The new law extends the
terms of Auditors now in office
until November of 1871.
