Hearttending Scene.
From the Wheeling Intelligencer.l

From the Wheeling Intslligencer.]
The Cincinnati and Pittsburg
express coming West over the Bal
tinore and Ohio Railroad one
morning, last week, about mile
cost of Glover's Gap, ran over and
instantly killed young man Of
perhaps eighteen, and child of
five or six, which he Vas trying to
rescue from danger The young
man was mending fence not far
from the track, and the child,
whose brother he was, appears to
have left the house with the inten-
ton of err ssing the road and go
ing to him. The child. when seen
ny the engineer, was walking along
heside the road at sale distance.
When the brother saw the train
coming he ran toward the road,
| apprehe ending that the child mig ht
attempt to cross before the train.
As the train approached, the child
seeing his brother coming Oh the
opposite side OF the road turned, i,
with strange fatality, and started
to run across the track directly in
front Of the engine to meet him.
The brother sprang upon the track
to snatch it away, and in an instant
the locomotive was upon them and
tuey were crushed beneath its
ronderous wheels. The train was
stopped as soon as possible. and
all went back to see the sad spec
tacle. The child's body was dread
fully mangled, and the upper por-
ton of the young mans head had
been crushed completely away.
The father and mother had come
out to the roadside, aud were bend
ing over their dead children and
utteling heart piercing lamenta-
tions. 1t was scene to mel
hearts of stone, and many were
moved to tears. The engineer
who was much affected aud horri
fed by the danger as may bt
supposed. turned as white as +.
sheet when he looked upon tn,
mangled remains. He is pro
nounced entirely blameless, a.
there was no time TO stop the train
even if there had been reason t,
apprehend that the enid would ge
upon the track. The name of tn,
family our informant was not sur,
Of, but he thought it was Sisson.

A FAITHFUL WATCHDOG
A TRUE STORY.

ABOUT the year 1850, a personal
friend of the narrator, residing in
q remote New England town, left
his young wife and happy home,
to seek his fortune in California.
On summer afternoon, nearly
eighteen months after ward, as she
was sitting on the lawn before the
cottage of which she was the sole
occupant and which and was
situated on a retired road nearly
two miles from a small village, she
was agreeably surprised by the ap-
pearancc of an expressman, WHO
had brought her two thousand dol
lars in gold, and welcome letter
from her long-absent husband, the
gold being the result of his first
years labor at the mines.
After the excitement of her sur
prise had somewhat suhsided, she
began to think that it would be up-
safe for her to remain alone in the
house with so much money. 1t
was the hard earnings of her self
sacrificing husband, and should be
safely kept.
While she was pondering in her
mind what TO do with the money,
and also whom she could get keep
her company that night, she saw
her butcher, a resid,n of the viii
lage, riding along the road in his
wagon towards his home, and hav-
ing confidence in him as a trust
worthy friend and adviser, she call
ed to him to stop, that she might
relate to him her good fortune.
The butcher listened attentively
TO her story Of fortune, and said he
would leave his faithful dog Bose.
a large mastiff, who, he said, per-.
fectly understood his business when
any property was entrusted to his
care for safe keeping.
The butcher said to his dog,
:" Bose, do you lie down on that
door rug, and don't you let any
person come into this house to
night )" saying which the butcher
rode away.
The lady feeling perfectly safe
thought she would make friends
with the dog, and offered him some
think to eat; but Bose would no,
eat, neither would he take any no.
tice OF her, except to occasionally
follow her with his eyes wheneve,
she moved about the room. Fail
ing to make a companion of thu
dog, she began to be afraid, ant
her personal fear of the dog wa.
now greater than the fear of losing
, her money.
The lady retired to bed, leaving
, the door Of her bed room ajar, 81
that she could see the dog as b,
lay on the rug at the sitting-roon
door, and who seemed to keep
,, constant watch upon her, so mucl
so, that she dared not go to sleep
. and almost wished the dog was no
e in the house. At last she fell int,
q drowsy slumber, from which sh,
/. ives suddenly aroused by Bose q
he sprung from his place on tn,
rug toward the window. She heart

was quiet. She was 90 mucl

Hoofland's German Tonic

Was compounded for those not inclined to
extreme bitters, and is intended for use in
cases when some alcoholic stimulant is re-
qured in connection with the Tonic proper
ties of the Bitters. Each bottle Of the Ton ic
contains one bottle of the Bitters, combined
with pure SANTA CRUZ RUN, and favored in
such a manner that the extreme bitterness Of
the Bitters is overcome, forming a prepara-
ton highly agreeable and pleasant to the pal
.ate, and containing the medicinal virtues OF
the Bitters. The price of the Tonic is $l.5O
per bottle, which many persons think too
high. They must take into consideration tn at
the stimulant used is guaranteed to be of a
pnre quality. A poor article could be fur
nished at cheaper price, but is il not better
to pay little more and have good article ?
medicinal preparation should contain none
but the best ingredients, and they who ex-
pect to obtain cheap compound will most
certainly be cheated.

HAPPY MARRIAGES.

The Cameron Pa. Herald has
the following sensible remarks.
We are glad to find arguments like
these gradually coming the public
through other mediums then these
columns
Marriages are happy where they
take place from pure love, between
two persons who are already
thoroughly acquainted with each
other, and who are quite content
with each other as they then are.
First, love must be the motive.
Marriages of convenience, as they
are called, almost always turn out
to be anything but convenient, and,
on the contrary, exceedingly in
convenient.
l. people marry for money. even
if the money be obtained, the hus-
band or wife who is taken with it,
is OF course, and necessarily re
garded merely as an incum brance,
TO be endured for the sake OF the
more highly priced pecuniary ac-
Quisitlon. Then, it it chance that
the coveted money be not received,
or that it be subsequently lost, the
situation is still more deplorable,
for the incumbrance alone remains
without the compensation calcula-
ted upon for its endurance, and be
comes all the more uncomfortable
Ii people marry for what is call
ed position, they marry for some
thing which cannot be obtained in
that way. A sound title to posi-
ton can only be got by merit. new
ef by matrimony.
Secondly, happy marriages can
only take place between people
who are well acquainted and who
arc satisfied with each other as they
are
Young persons who are 50 blind

rendered torpid, who are unable tt
perceive each others faults, ant
who marry, in real form, All imas

ly undeceived by tie experienc,
Of married life; and such matche:
are most miserable.
So of those who marry, not be
cause they are satisfied with eacl
other as they now are, but who ar,
quite confident of their ability t,
change the character OF the per.
son they wed. Such hopes prov
delusive. Do not DO deceived b,
the idea that you can re-mould
character already cast, in conse
quence of assuming the matrimo
nial relation. The probability is
that the Objectionable or disagree
able qualities which you alread
perceive will increase, and not di
minish, after marriage, while tn
possibility of discovering new one
always exists.
/ These suggestions may be heed
ed with advantage by the endles
procession concession continual
moving toward the gates of matri
mony.
