A FORTUNATE M1sF0RTUNE.-When
Mr.. Jas. N. Cook and his wife were re-
turning home from the temperance meet
ing on Wednesday evening, May 9th. the
team became frightened, and started to
run. One of the traces unlocked, let
ting the tongue down, and in that con-
dition the buggy was drawn some dis
lance. Finally the tongue caught against
something, the horses broke loose and
ran away. Mr.. & Mrs. Cook were both
thrown upon the ground. Mr.. Cook was
but slightly hurt, and was soon on his
feet. His wife was unable to walk, or even
to rise, although she had no broken bones
so the Deacon was obliged to leave her
alone while he went home,- about half q
mile,-and got another team with which
to take her home. Upon examination it
was found that her head was badly
bruised. and one wrist sprained very
severely, otherwise she was 'lnburt. But
little damage was done to either the bug.
gy or team. Mrs. Cook is now able to be
about the house.

J. The death Of NJ. H. Scribner, an.
nounced in our Frankford correspon'
dence, will occasion sincere grief t.
many of our readers, as it does to US.
The deceased was quite generally
known throughout the county, and Wa.
as universally respected. He exem-
pli6ed ono trait of character which
everybody admires, and that was faith
fulness in the discharge of duty. Du'
ring three successive sessions Of the
Legislature, he was elected to the Of
fee Of Enrolling Clerk. Of the popular
branch,-the third time without being
present, or even asking for the position,
He had established a character fol-
fidelity to trust. which made his SER
vices in demand, and although his
health aud the condition of the wealth.
er combined to keep him from the
Capitol for three weeks, the House
kept the place open for him, until h<
was able to occupy it. His private
life was free from blemish. His agod
parents, aud brothers and sisters, have
the sympathy of large circle Of
friends.
