ACHAPTER OF ACCIDENTS.

Mrs. E. ID. ,Hinckley, in company
with another lady. was, riding put, a
few days ago, when, for some reason
the horse became frightened and ran
away, upsetting the carriage, and in
juring Mrs. Hinckley quite severely.
Mrs Hartwell Rider, in alighting
from her carriage at neighbor's,
where she went for flowers, last week,
fell and broke her hip. DIR. Squire
has the case in charge, and hopes are
entertained of final recovery.
A son of J. J. Ryder was thrown
from his pony, few days ago, and
found in>the road in an iasfnsible con-
tdition.. tHe has fully recovered. -.
III. A. Dyson, Esq, returning from
Ravenna last Monday, when near the
Rapids, was, in consequence of sud-
den start of the horses, precipitated
backward from the buggy to the
ground, striking on his head. He was
unconscious for some time, and is yet
suffering severely from the effects of
the fall.
Some Democrats in this vicinity, en-
tertained forebodings, some time ago,
regarding the success of our State
ticket this fall. They have been at
tentive readers of Republican papers
thus far during the campaign, and
have now become thoroughly convinc-
ed that Ewing and Rice will be tri-
umphantly elected, and have gone to
work with vim that foretells victory.
A few quotations from the Cleveland
Leader will show how the scales were
removed from their vision.
"All the miners in the State will
vote for Foster"
"Foster's majority will not be less
than 100000"
GA great majority of the Irish are
deserting the democracy and will cast
their ballots for Foster"
"The German voters almost to a
man will vote for Forter."
Fosters majority will not be less
than 80, 1000"
"All the soldiers will vote for Fos-
ter"
"Au the hard money democrats, and
there are thousands of them, will work
and vote for Foster" ~
Fosters mojority will not be less
than 10000"
Thurman, and Thompson, and
Hurd are secretly working to defeat
Ewing"
!" Fosters majority will not be less
than Is, 5,COO."
90 There are well grounded rulnors
in circulation that Ewing will with
draw, he has already given up the cam
si'sf @ fSo@psoS fs a and sAi Ha4a G cease % thsir
plotti1gs against him he will with
draw"
'' Fosters majority will not be less
than 10000"
ION inquiry at the National head
quarters, we are informed by Mr..
Committee, that SO counties have re-
ported, and the report shows that near
ly all of the Nationals who desert the
party will vote for Foster, while the
n National vote will be increased from
to 400 per cent. and will be drawn ex-
clusively from Ewing's forces. This is
. sftreuaelId6us boom for Foster. His
nAajorily Will not be Jess tAan 5000"
Our reporter had an interview to-
day with Mr.. Foster and he is conf
dent that he will be elected by about
1900 majority over Ewing"
The news at Republican head
quarters to-day is from several por-
tions of the State, and of q nature
more favorable tor the success of the
republican State ticket"
I have given Che above quotations in
their order; and as a political barome-
ter indicate very plainly that the re-
publicans are driven to the wall. The
game of brag and bluff was commenced
too early in the campaign, for if there
was any democrat SO weak as to be |
by 1t, , he will get bravely' !
over it about a week before election.

Since writing, we have learned that
Mrs. Hartwell Rider, mentioned above,
died last night, the 2sth. very sudden
". She had been very nervOus,s as a
result of her injury. and had the night
mare, from which she awoke very
much frightened, and died in a few
caused by stopping of
blood around the heart. Mrs. Rider
had been a resident of this place about
forty years. She was q cheerful COM
panion, an excellent wife, mother and !
and the community, as we'll
as the family, have suffered a great
loss. H.
