E Mrs. David Long, of Beaver

EFT Mrs. David Long. of Beaver
township, Noble county, Ohio, about a
year ago noticed something growing on
her right breast, which increased very
rapidly in size; when first noticed it
was not larger than grain of corn, in
ten months it increased to the size of a
goose egg. Mrs. Long became alarmed,
thinking that something serious might
result from it. and thought it best to
apply to a physician. Several physi-
clans were consulted, and they all pro-
nounced it cancer. Among the physi-
clans consulted, DR.. Abbott was chosen
and commenced treating her immedi
ately. Mrs Long suffered intensely,
but she bore it patiently, and at the end
of six weeks the cancer came oat, leav-
ing no traces Of danger The cavity
being large it required some time to
heal, but that is well now, and Mrs.
Long is able to go about among her

Four Men Killed by the CavIng In
of a Coat Shaft, @

MAssILLoN. April 12.-Between IL
and IL o'clock last night, while engaged
at work shaking coal shaft about five
miles south of this city, and all uncon-
scious of immediate danger, five men
were buried alive, covered with about
six feet of earth, being about twenty
five feet below the surface. John Soun-
better. superintendent, and his nephew
of the same name, and two others,
names not learned, were killed. Mr..
Anthony Howells, one of the proprie-
tors, was badly bruised about the body,
head cut and one leg badly broken, but
is not considered fatally injured. The
land belongs to Messrs. Lee, Howells
& Warwick, who are sinking the shaft
preparatory to getting out coal. It
seems Mr. Howells' head was protected
by the boisting tub, which contained
enough air to preserve his life until res
cued. The other four were dead when
taken out.

ANTIOCH. MONROE County, OHlo,|


Ed. SPIRIT. 1t has heen some time
since any communication appeared in
your paper from Perry. AS we are much
interested in reading news from other
parts of the county, that often appears in
your paper, and thinking that your many
readers might be equally interested in
hearing from us on the questions and
news Of the day, we concluded to fur
nish few items.
The main question is, will we have
railroad ? or, will the railroad be built
from Woodsield to Bellaire Most of
our citizens think that the project will
be carried out; some have expressed a
willingness 10 contribute to the building
of it, How much will it cost, and what
kind of road will it be, and what it will
pay the farmers, has been already an
swered in your paper. 13z3 s

Our farmers are going to work with a

Our merchants appear to be selling
goods freely, and say at bottom prices.
We had visitation of some one in
the shape of thief, or thieves,the night
of the 9Th inst. They entered the shoe
shop of f. Rose aud stole two pairs OF
new footed fine foots, and one pair wo-
mars shoes, valued at sl4 SO, and last
of all they stole his account book; but
Mr.. Rose had his accounts 80 arranged
that he is able to call to mind about all
that were in it. No clue to the property
or the thieves has been found yet; we
iatter ourselves that it was not among
the citizens OF our town. We would
like to find out the thief, as we have had
several things stolen about town, ,such as
corn, potatoes, chickens and coal We
are getting tired of such sport,and want
