A CITIZEN of our county, Mr.. Kirkpat-

Halls Gap, last week, when his horses be-
came frightened, and started of down the
great hill. Mr.. Kirkpatrick jumped off
of the wagon and fell on his head, which
seriously injured him. lie is still unable
to go about, but his wounds are not fatal.
The wagon and team are but little dam
aged. II was narrow escape, however, as
the prccipice on the West side Of the Gap
is over one hundred feet high in some places
and the road 'ess than 80 feet wide.

A LARGE number Of bark and wood-cut-
tiers passed through town last Saturday eve
ming, each one with pocket full Of cur

as their funds lasted. They seemed to he a
happy and healthy set Of men, and no doubt
felt, with as much as five or ten dollars in
their pockets, as rich and independent as
Astor himself. And, truly, not one ofthem
would exchange places with the dead Mill
ionaire, to-day!

transportation to the various depots along

was all in vain; the young fellow per-

took his morning practice. On the fifth
day they besieged M. Delsarte in his

stop the nuisance. M. Delsarte replied:

[Paris Letter to the London / Times.l


at tile Haute Marne Assizes case
has been tried, resulting in capital sem
teuce, the circumstanees Of which de-
serve publicity. In 1850 Ta man, still

surprised by the samekeeper OF a forest
in, tho Hauter Marine. Am information
was laid against him., and, he. was
brought before tie Correctional Tribu-
nal, condemned to the forfeiture OF his
gun, TO fine, and even, believe, to inn
prisonment. Rambouillet received the
sentence, without protest., aeknowl-
edging the offense imputed to him,
and resolving to turn over q new leaf.
He kept his pledge, and from 1850 to 1870
be laid himself open TO no reproach. He
seemed bent on blotting out by his good
conduct the stigma Of his condemnation.
When'he met the gamekeeper he avoid
ed looking at him, not with the air OF a
man harboring grudge, but like man
prevented by shame from enc0untering
the witness OF his fault. It was OBJ.
served, however, that he often isolated
himself from others, and frequently
