and prominent lawyer in that place.
accompanied by his wife and'daughter,
got into a ear at tho West Chester
Railroad Depot, at Philadelphia, on
Thursday afternoon of last week. Pre-.
vious to the departure of the train he
lett the cur and proceeded to the wait
ing.rom. The whistle was blown.
aud Mr.. Wilson rushed out The
train was then in motion, and Mr.. VII.
son attempted to jump on the car, but
bis foot slipped. The conductor, who
was on the platform, seized Mr.. Wilson,
but the latter being Il very heavy man,
the former lost hIs hold, and Mr.. vii.
son fell. The wheels oi the ear passed
over him, cnusing instant death. The
disaster caused commOtion, and Mrs,
and Miss Wilson, upon going out to
ascertain the cause, were Mortified Ia
sec the mntiluted body Of Mr.. Wilson
drawn Out from under the ear. Both
tainted, and were carried into the rail

would sppear that the greater our
civilization becomes, the more Asylums
we need. Until the close of the war,
the one at Harrisburg contained all
the crazy people we had in the State.
Since that time one has been opened ut
Danville, and another at Warren, and
the Commission appointed to select a
site for the fourth insane asylum for
Eastern Pennsylvania, had meeting
On Saturday last, and chose the farm
of Adolphus Kent, near Gwynnedd, in
Montgomery county, on the North
Pennsylvania Railroad. The farm
contains about two hundred acres, and
the price is sl75 per acre. The choice
was made by ballot, six Of the commits.
sloners voting for the Kent farm, two
for the Hittrnann farm, near Norris.
town, and two for the Harman farm.
West Chester And still we need II
tith institution wherein to confine the
crimipally insane. The idea of in.
generating a crazy man or woman,
who has committed a murder or other
henious crime, with tho innocent in
sane, is so preposterous II proposition
that no sensible being can contemplate
II for q moment withou. shuddering.
Let us have a "crazy penitentiary."
The interest on the overpIus in the
State Treasury for three years, now
pocketed by a few bankers, will furnish
the right kind OF a building.

OF Hayes Southern Policy and the
Speakcrship. When interrogated by
the interviewer on these material
points Butler remarked: God moves
IN II mysterious way his wonders to
perform" and confessed that we are
