Mrs! Moses liarrcll and her llttIe dauSh-
ter narrowly escaped serious injuries while
passing along the streets on Sunday last

the feet of runaway horse, and the en-
citcment occasioned by the accident and
the overpowering heat of the day made
Mr.. Harrcll seriously and dangerously III.
Happily, the child was not much injured
and Mr. Harrell has almost entirely recoy-
cred from the shock.
An unsophisticaled young man named

sible to lose at il. Indeed, 50 confident was
he of his ability to win that he staked his
watch on it, Officer Hogan got the watch
back for the SanduSkyite and gave him
some good advice.

A delcgation Of colored men will
shortly leave this civ for Springfield to
interview Gov. Culom relative to the ap-
pointment of officials of the Southern
Illinois penitentiarv. They assert that the
,olored element of the Republican party
mas been ignored in this As in All other
matters where the emoluments of office
,re concerned. and thar il i the only peni-
entiarv in the Union where di,tinction i,
made ON account of color. A colored man
: denied even the sweet boon Of being nun
shed at Chester and has TO while away the
lreary DAYS of hi, impri,onmcnt At Tolic>
1t is not to be wondered at that the color.
I'd heart is fired with indignation.
