A frightful accident occurred on July
9Th, near cambridge. Mr.. s. J. Wolf,
miller in charge of the Eureka mills
was oiling the machinery, when by
some means, he suffered his right arm
to be caught between some powerful
cast cog wheels, which crushed the arm,
bones and all, from the wrist to the ell
bow joint. Mr.. Wolf was by himself,
and came very near dying from hemor-
rhage and nervous exhaustion or shock,
before assistance could be rendered.
He managed to walk down from the
second floor and stopped the mill, and
got outside before he fell. When he
was found he was apparently insensible.
His arm was amputated and at last &C
counts he was alive.

Conference closed on Sunday evening
last at this place, and on Monday the
delegates departed for their several
homes, seemingly delighted with their
visit to our town. The deliberations of
the body were very harmonious through
out, and the preaching to our people
was very good and highly appreciated.
On Saturday night Mr.. Householder
preached at the church, and on Sunday
at II O'Clock services were conducted at
the church by Prof. Summers, of Nor
ristown, and at the courthouse by Rev.
C. T. Carroll, of Rutledge, whose name
was Inadvertently omitted from the list
of delegates last week; and on Sunday
night the pulpit at the church, was
again ably filled by Mr.. French. while
Mr. James Wolfe preached an excellent
sermon at the courthouse. The address
ses of Revs. d. w. Carter and G. T,
Carroll before the Sunday School on
Sunday morning are highly spoken of
by those who were so fortunate as. to
hear them. The reports of the minis
tiers from the several churches in the
District made a favorable exhibit for
Methodism; since the last conference
large number of acceSsions have been
made to the church, and religion seems
to be spreading with steady step.
