OH LiUDASUM.-The Sunbury Daily
Of 4 recent date says 1t is only u few
days since a lovely child of a Sunbury
family was given few drops of old
laudanum, and it went TO sleep never
TO awake. Another like case was made
known to us, only the child happily
recovered. Its parents, who reside in
Shamokin township, came to visit some
friends here, where the child took di-
arhoea badly. Among the remedies
applied was laudanum, which had
been very long time in the house.
from which the liquid had evaporatcd,
leaving it nothing less than conccn-
trated opium, which proved so fatal in
the first mentioned case. We deem it
our duty TO warn parents against the
use of this old laudanum, and cite these
two recent cases for that purpose.
We copy the following from the
LemistoUn Gazette, and hope those who
are in the habit of jumping on or OIL
the trains while in motion, will do so
no more: 1.-TWO boys frcm McVcy-
town, who it is said have been in the
habit of stealing rides on the cars, as is
often the ease, met with a mishap
which resulted in the manning of one
for life, and ought to be n lesson to the
other as long as he lives. On Friday
morning Goth ult., they surreptiti0usly
got on freight coming down, and in
the afternoon attempted thesame feat
at the station across the river on one
going up. The first one succeeded in
boarding passing train, but the other
named Winfield Beatty, missed his
booting on the s.irrup, and letting go
his hold on I he rod, was thrown down,
the wheels passing over one leg below
the knee, twisting his foot two or three
times and fairly crushing the bones.
He was taken up and laid down at the
station, where some bystanders tied
handkerchief around his thigh to stop
the effusion of blood, and physicians
were then sent for. Drs. Marks and
Hurlbut having arrived. II was deem
ed best to take him to tlSc poor house,
and Sutp. Smith having furnished an
engine, car and strctcher, he was con-
veyed to the trestle work and thence
to the poor house, where his leg was
amputated above the knee.
