A SAD ACCIDENT.

Another distressing accident occurred
night before last at eleven o'clock, in the
yards of the Illinois Central railroad. A
Mr., Joseph Norvcll, who is a switchman Of
the yards, was engaged in switching cars
onto various tracks and while train of
freight cars were in motion, he stepped be-
tween them to draw acoupling pin and while
running along between the cars, his foot
caught between the double rails, and held
it fast. lie at once threw himself on the
outside of the track, with his knee on the
inside, and the loaded cars passed over the
ankle and knee, crushing and tearing the
limb into shapcless mass Of flesh and
bone. He was at once removed to the
stone depot and DR.. Parker, the railroads
physician was soon after on hand and found
amputation of the limb, close to the body,
necessary. This was performed in the depot
since it was feared that amputation at his
residence would prove too great a shock to
hisyoung wife. He isa young man, TWEEN
ty-nine years of age, and came to this city
about three months ago. His residence is
on Fourteenth street, between Washington
and Walnut. We learn from DR.. Parker
that ms chances for recovery are very slight
