Frightful Accident.

Lie v uSluId OuIOllClc VI ldSb
evening gives an account of fright
full accident, caused by one of
Montgomery Queens circus wag-
ons, which was being run down the
hill, by hand, to the main tent.
Instead of waiting for sufficient
help, two of the men started down
the hill with the wagon-a ponder
Gus vehicle heavily loaded with
cooking utensils. The wagon be-
gan to move faster and faster, and
at last, in fear of their own lives,
the men let go of it. Down the
street it plunged with the fury of
catapull, never stopping in its
course until it reached and went
half way through the residence of
Stephen Z. ellis. The railing in
front of the house was but as a
bubble of air in the path of the
wild wagon, and the front of the
house was driven in as though it
was but tissue paper. The front of
the house and the furniture of the
room broken into presented dis
NAL spectacle, but the most serious
result of the accident was the in
jury to Miss Fanny ellis, sister
of the gentleman named. The
room was occupied by Miss ellis
and her little niece as their Sleep
ing apartment, and they were
chatting in bed when the wagon
plunged in upon them. The bed
stead was crushed to pieces, and
Miss ellis was seriously and per-
haps fatally injured. The attend
ant physicians have held two or
three consultations. and state that
the result of her internal injuries
will not be known for two or three
days. Should she recover she will
be confined to her bed tor two or
three months, and may remain a
cripple for life. The little girl was
badly cut about the head with pieces
OF glass from the broken windows.
The fragments were all extracted
and the wounds dressed, and she is
getting along we'll. The man who
chung to the brake was carried with
the wagon clear into the house, and
was slightly bruised. Mr.. ellis
and his wife occupy an adjoining
apartment in the front of the house,
which was unlnjured. That portion
which the wagon entered is COM
plete wreck. We learn that Mont
gomery Queen has expressed his
deep regret at the unfortunate occur
renee, and has stated his readiness
to pay all damages that have been

An Irish Earl's Cruise.

About month ago a foreign yacht an
chored off Tomkinsviile, Staten Island.
There was sick man aboard who had
been cruising round the water world
three years IN search of health. He was
q young man and very wealthy one,
and took with him his aunt and doctor
for companions. For two years he had
been scudding away from the winters
and summers of Europe by cruising first
in the Mediterranean and then on the
coast of Norway, but without permanent
benefit. He then hurried across the At
lantic hoping to find new life in the new
world. But he finally cast anchor as
above stated, sicKer and weaker and
wearier than ever. He could sail no
more. William Butler Duncan, o bank
| er, gave tine sick man an asylum on Cas-
tleton Heights, Staten Island, aud he
sent his yacht back to England, we'll
knowing he would never need it again.
A few days ago the sick man died. He
was Charles William Francis Bury, the
fourth Earl of Charleyille, member Of
ond title OF Baron Fullamore. The tam
lily seat is Charleyille Forest. Fullamore,
| Kings county, Ireland. The Earl was
born thele in 1852. On the death of his
| father in 1860, he succeeded to the titles
and became the proprietor OF the largest
landed estates in Ireland. He was edrl.
Gated at Eaton, and left there in 1871. He
was born to wealth, and titles and hon
ors, and had everything the world could
give but health. He sought it every.
where, but could mot discover the elixir
of life. His body is now being waited
across the sea Tor deposit in the family
tomb in Charleyille Forest, and the Earl's
|uncle, Colonel Alfred Bury, will sue
ceed to the titles.

TROY, O.-The marauders were out
again last Tuesday evening, but it hap
pened they were Of musical kind. We
refer to the midnight marauders, a band
of young men who. favored Troy with a
concert on that evening. They sing like
Imartingales, and gave us programme
lengthy, rich and varied. Troy seldom
is favored with such fine amateur music
as these young men produce.
New Years day opened about hdf past
2 O'Clock by an alarm of fire, and the en-
gines were out promptly. Fire was dis
covered in the residence of Mrs. Resson,
supposed to be incendiary, but was put
out without much damage.

wishes of the entire community, and the
eatables were fine and the dance lovely

How Postage Stamps are Made.

In printing, steel plates are used, on
Which two hundred stamps are en-.
graved. Two men are kept hard at
work covering them with the c0lored
inks and passing them to man and
girl, who are equally busy at printing
them with large rolling hand presses.
Three of these little squads are employ
ed all the time, although ten presses can
be put into use in case of necessity. At
ter the small sheets of paper upon which
the two hundred stamps are engraved
have dried sufficiently they are sent into
another room and gummed. The gum
used ior this purpose is O peculiar COM
position, made of the powder OF dried
potatoes and other vegetables mixed
with water, which 10 better than any
other kind, for instance, gum arabic,
which cracks the paper badly. This pa
per is also of a peculiar texture, some
what similar to that used for bank notes.
After having been again dried, this
time on little racks, which are famed by
steam power for about an hour, they
are put between sheets of pasteboard
and pressed in hydraulic presses, capa-
BILE OF applying a weight of two thousand
tons. The next thing is to cut the sheet
in half; each sheet OF course, when cut,
contains q hundred stamps. This is
done by girl with large pair of shears,
cutting by hand being preferred to that
OF machinery, which method wonld de.
stroy too many stamps. Next, they are
pressed once more, and then packed and
Tabled, and slowed away in another
room, preparatory to being put in mail
bags for dispatching to fulfill orders. If
a single stamp is torn, or in anyway mu-
tilated, the whole sheet is burned.
About 100000 are burned every week
from this cause. For the past twenty
years not a single sheet has been lost,
such care has been taken in counting
them. During the process of manufac-
turing the sheets are counted eleven
times.
