Killed by His Own Invention.

A FRANKLIN, n.y., paper tells us Of
m old cololed man who invented 1.
wagon so arranged that, after being
set in motion, it runs itself BY virtue
Of tho fact that the weight of grayit:l.
ton is thrown forward Of the center
motion, and consequently the machine
is compelled to run. 1t has been the
intention ofthe inventor to have his
wagon at the fair, 90 that its value
might be tested publickly, and tho
old man mounted the machine, ad.
|justed the bands, tipped the balance.
weight over the center of motion,
gave tho driving wheel a shove, and
started for Franklin, to report to the
Secretary of the association, and have
his machine regularly entered on the
books. About one mile of there and
here, unfortunately, an accident &c
CURED. The machine was humming
along tho smooth, sandy road at about
fifteen miles an hour, and tho happy
inventor was on deck, feeling AZ
proud as Fulton on board his fret
steamboat, when, in lnakiug the turn
just near the margin of the Red Poud.
the starbOard front wheel coIlided
with = beavy.set post.oak sapling,
aud the rebounl was 90 powerful that
the old man was thl own forward over
the dashboard, and was at the same
time struck by tue tango of tho div.
ing wheel, which precipitated his
speed 40 much that, when his head
struck the fence panel, On tue oppo.
site side Of the road, he was 80 badly
smashed that his death must have
taken place Immediately. Coroner
Hart6eldb inquest was uncertain rs
to whether hs had been killed by 4
sudden stroke Of the drivipg.wheel,
or BY too nasty collision with tho
panel of the fence. The machine.
after the accident, struck out with
freedom, and, passing the residence Of
Capt. Lea, soon made its way across
In tile direction Of Boisseau's meadow,
but was arrested 10 its progress ~ a
large log, which titled the balance
weight back Of the centre of motion,
and the wild wagon was standing
gently at rest when overtaken by tho
coroner and bis party, who were fol-
lowing along to take care Of the killed
and wounded. Since the tragic death
Of the inventor, no man has dared to
mount the fiery, untamc.l steed, but
our informant assures us that it will
be on exhibition at the fair grounds,
aud We invite the attention Of inven-
tors and machinist to its peculiar
mechanism. We will not vonch for
any mans lite who mounts it and
sets it in motion in q timbered local..
y, but it can be managed safely on
the half mile track on the fair
grounds, and will be put to it's best
speed, If any man can be fouul who
is competent ~ guide it.
