A Child Cut to Death by a Reaper.

Mr.. James Wetherlie of Vernon River
was cutting grain near his residence Oh
Saturday afternoon last, and his little
daughter, four years old, contrary to ex-
press commands, persisted in being in the
field with him. He sent her into the
horse three times, the third time pretend
ing to be angry with her and threatening
punishment if she remained in the field.
On coming round again to the place near
which he left his child, and not seeing
her, he concluded that she had return

she did not do, but hid herself in the tall

furrow. just as the horses passed her by

sionary fields have been larger than usual
and prospects are bright. Twelve mis-.
sonaries have been released. Only twen-
ty new laborers have gone out, though
calls Tor workmen are urgent in the field
of labor. Native pastors nearly equal
the missionaries in number, and some
of them are developing great power
and having great sasSsaa. The
report concludes with brief no.

Lost Race Of the Mon oDgahela.
The Pittsburg Commercial.

Several years ago considerable excite
ment was created in Paramount, West
Va, by the discovery of traces of an old
macadamized road. extending along the
right bank Of the Monongahela, opposite
that place. Recently the government
engineering party engaged in the survey
Of the Upper Monongahela River, with
the, vie " Of slack watering that stream
from Morgantown to Paramount examined
this old road, and from the members of
the party we learn that there can be no
doubt but that ktnis road furnishes
another trace Of the lost race that once
dominated the Continent long before the
Indians came into possession.
There are traces Of the road for nearly
eleven miles along the narrow strip of
bottom land between the hills and the
river, though at many POINTS the river,
having shifted it's channel and cut into
the hills, has entirely obliterated every
evidence Of it. Generally the road lis

Of ages by the river floods. OF else bv the
slow washing off the hills skirting it.
It's width is said to be fifteen feet,
The most curious feature about the
road is that the stone from which it is
formed appears invariably to have been
burnt. Wherever the road shows itself
in the cutting banks, it is marked by
the black substratum Of ashes. In depth
the broken stone varies from six inches
to eighteen inches, of irregular fragments.
The materials employed appears to have
been largely composed of boulders of red
sandstone, and the conjecture is that
they were broken after being made hot
with water thrown over them. There
