FATAL RAILROAD ACCIDENT-The
morning train from Plymouth to Lam
caster, on the B. c. & NJ. Railroad, on
the "a inst, met with quite serious &C
cident at the switch about mile south
of Wells River, which connects that
road with the White Mountain Exten-
sion. The train was running at high
rate of speed and while passing the
switch, the rod which holds the switch
in place broke, throwing one car down a
high bank and rolling over several times.
A Mr.. Brown, the brakeman was Instant
ly killed, and conductor Eastman fatally
injured. Five others were injured
among them was Sam. X. Lee, travel.
ing salesman, quite we'll known in this
vicinity. He was at first reported as ia.
tally injured, but is now doing well and
will probably be ont again in few
weeks.

The Following

is from the Black River Gazette, and
would say for the benefit of the afflicted
hereabouis that DR.. Smyth anticipates
making a professional visit here of some
weeks, commencing about the 18th of
January.
The most delicate organs of man are
the eye and ear, and when afflicted the
whole being suffers thereby. Delicate as
these organs are, DIR. S. w. Smyth treats
all diseases of both with success, because
he has made them a special study, and
the man who wins renown, must win by
applying himself directly to the subject
matter. DR.. Smyth removed a cataract
from the eyes of Mrs. Miles, os Yer
gennes. after she had been blind for fif-
teen wears, restoring her sight CON-
pletely. an operation seldom If ever per-
formed by any other physician in this
State. He also treats caiarrh success
fully"

BRooKLTNE.-Mrs. Betsey Whitney,
the oldest person in town, died on Fri
day evening, Nov. 9th, in her one hun
dredth year. She outlived all her near
relatives, her husband, Mr.. Israel Whit
ney, having died many years ago. Since
that time her home has been with a
nephew. Her genial disposition aud in
telligent social powers made her an at
tractige companion, even after four score
years ard ten had left their burrows on
her cheek and dimuess in her eye. The
events of days long past were fresh in
her memory and she loved to rehearse
them. For some years, however, she
has been gradually failing till at last the
silver chord is loosed and the fettered
spirit free. Mrs. Whitney, or Aunt
Betsey," as she was familarly called, was
one of the few Of whom every one who
knew her spoke well.

A PERILoUs ADvENTURE.-Mr. Geo.
G. Chaffee, formerly resident of this
section, but now of Whitewater, Wis.
on the Both ult., met with an accident ON
the railroad, by which he lost one horse,
had another injured and suffered other
damage besides narrowly escaping with
his own life. The Whitewater Register,
in which we find the accident, says that
Mr. Chafee was walking beside the
wagon and neither saw nor heard the
train till his horses sprang, when about
one rod from the track. He attempted
to hold them but his feet slipped and he
was drawn within Ell ght feet of the track
when the engine struck the horses and
pitched the wagon over Chaffee into the
ditch. One of the horses was all torn to
pieces, the other was dragged throug b
the cattle guards and escaped with ter
