having heard of the Franco-German war
buried every valuable thing she had day

so, she replied that, in the days Of the

would not come, but they did, and lmpov.
GriShed her; and that when the people said

TnE statement from Paris, describing
the military situation ''gcncrNlly," that
the French army holds the passes OF the
VOgrs, while the PrtisSian army Is massed
ut their base, is difficult to understand
with such light rs the maps afford. The
VOsges isn mountain range running north
east and southwest through the eastern
part of France some twenty miles from
the Rhine border. The left and centre
Or the French army Hnd the right
and centre of the PrlssiNns have been
operating west Of this raEge and must still
Ike west of 1t. The meaning of the dis
patch Is doubtless that the army of the
Crown Prince, ont the extreme Prussian
right, which fought its battles east of the
Vosges, has been trying to pass through
the mountains and make junction with
the rest of the army, willie the French
hold the passes. How they can do this
and hold Metz at the same time is some
thing of a puzzle, for the mountains ap-
pear to be fifty miles east Of TINT city. 1t
may be they are held by tho rctrc0ting
corps of MCMAHON.

From Oxford.

From Oxford.
Our town has recently been visited
with several very sad and lamentable
circumstances, both al accidental and
intentional character. Probably one
of the most serious and melancholy
Especially to the parents and kin
folks Of the deceased) was the unex-
pected and summary death OF Mr..
Samuel Strains boy, four years OF
age. Mr.. Samuel Strain, June I'd
lust., was driving upon the public
road southwest of Oxford, about
three miles, near where he resides,
with part OF load Of hay on the
wagon, also himself and boy. in COM
pany with another gentleman aud
team, aud through some cause .
race cnsued,, Before advancing very
far, the fore wheel OF each wagon
came in collision and resulted in
throwing the boy forward from the
load OF hay, and precipitating his
head against the opposite wheel.
which instantly terminated his lite.
This is sad affair, and one no doubt
deeply telt and very much lamented
by the bereaved. 1t will prove NO
doubt . valuable lesson to many that
are addicted to racing with teams,
undoubtedly under the most favora.
bic circumstances it is traught with
tho most fearful danger.

On THE Fiat game of ball,

ON THE FLY.-At game of ball,
on last Monday, the wounded were
numerous. Bradshaw, in attempting
to take ball on the fly, missed it
and the ball took him on the eye.
There was soon q largo swelling
around the eye, but We believe no Sc
rious damage was done. Soon alter
wards A. J. Free, cssayed to catch q
ball no. from tho bat. Instead Of
holIing It, it tore the flesh between
the third and fourth fingers Of his
right hand up some half inch rather
rudely. The damage is somewhat
serious, but it is hoped that it viii
not result in any permanent injury.
