Seriously, II Not Fatally Injured.

A terrible accident befel Mr.. GeoH, q
French farmer, who lives some nine miles
northwest of this city, on the Dunville road
yesterday afternoon, which will in all proba-
bility prove fatal to him. He was on his

of his place his team became frightened from
some unknown cause, and ran off. One of
the wheels OF the wagon struck a stump,
which upset the bed of the
vehicle, which fell on him
the brake striking him in the breast and
face, indicting fearful wouRds. A lad who
was with him in the wagon escaped with only
few slight bruises. The unfortunate man
was Ii tied into wagon, driven home and
medical aid summond. Rev. w. @. Young
of this city who was passing that way saw
him and says that when he left he was Just
alive and that was all.

Mans SeIf-ImpOrtance.

Mrs. Jameson, in more instances than
one, shows her belief in self-importance
being mans prime quality. Here is one
thing that breathes hard spirit. "Per-
sonal vanity in d man is sheer, unmiti-
gated egotism, and an unfailing subject
ofridicule and contempt with all women,
be they wise or foolish" The Countess
of Blessington, who was almost as wise
as she was handsome, has left few out
spoken opinions, of which one is that
Self-possession and dignity ought to
characterize man Of birth and genius,
and poet should neither be gay nor
fippant." Here is o singer: "Men can
pity the wrongs inflicted by other men
on the gentler sex, but never those which
they themselves. inAiot. ON women"
Though the following would apply
equally well to women, IL is worth re-
Numbering as showing that to delicate
minded woman the man who prides him
self on being bear, growing out I'M
palatable truths at every breath, is not
considered the pleasantest of compan-
ions: Your plAin-seeking men," says
the countess, fare usually either Of OBJ
fuse intellect or Of il1-natured dispose
tons, wounding the feelings Of others
from want Of delicacy Of mind and sen.
sibility, or from Intentional malice"
The countess grows concise, and in
saying ''that woman's head is always
influenced by its head" utters an cpl
gram worthy Of Pope. In the same cpl
grammatic mood must this have been
conceived. "Great men direct the
events Of their times; wise men take ad-
vantage Of them; weak men are borne
down by them" Elsewhere she says;
" In the society OF persons Of mediocritys
Of intellect Q clever man will appear To-
have less spirit than those around Him,
who possess the least, because he is dis
placed in their company" %

stricken By Famine.

Certainly no country claiming TO be
oppressed as Russia is with ills, physi-
cal, moral, political and social. Ac-
counts have been received from Orch
burg that the distress is such among
some Of the Ural tribes that they are
selling their male children for grain,
and leaving their girls to perish OF cold
and hunger. An entire Iliad OF woe is
conveyed in this simple sentence I: HUI
man suffering, bodily and mental,
could not be greater, sii CO 1t has
quenched the common impulses OF our
common nature, and forced rude peo-
pie to obey their most savage instinct
OF self-preservation. The government
Of Orenburg, where these horrors are
ACQUIRING, is on the eastern frontier OF
European Russia. II has probably
about 1b4, 900 square miles, and pop
ulation of near 100000 but the So
called Orenbufg country is three times
as large, and includes over $500, 900
people, extending from the Volga TO
the Sir Dafia and the Amu-Daria.
The Inhabitants, like the surface aud
the soil, are Of varied character.
The land is more elevated than that OF
any region in the empire, with many
low-lying tracts and steppes. Forests
are plenty, save In the north the soil
is fertile, though little cultivated, and
the many natural resources are unde-
veloped. The natives are composed OF
Russian. Bashkir, Tertar and Khirgiz
tribes, with Kalmucks and number OF
Firms. The trade is mainly with
Bokhara, Khiva, Tashkend, and the
Khirgiz, the exports being gold, silver
and other metals, corn, skins and
manufactured goods; the imports, cat
tie, cotton, and articles OF Asiatic trade.
The imports are either sold to Russian
merchants OF the custom-house on the
frontier OF are carried by Asiatic traders
into Russia and disposed OF at the great
national fair Of Mini Novgorod. The
Bashkir tribes are the chief traders,
and the Ural Cossacks are fishermen and
cattle-b breeders. The principal fair OF
the government is at the district town
Of Menseliusk, where goods TO the value
Of 81 ,000, 600 are annually sold. The
dominions Of the czar are 90 vast, and
such q proportion of hisSsubjects are
barbarous, or, at best, semi civilized,
that the most sagacious5 and enlight-
ened measures alone could reach the
entire people. But the political meas
ures are nearly as bad IS they can be
and little aid can be expected from st
Petersburg, when the emperor is princi
pally occupied in keeping bis head on
his shoulders and his subjects from
open revolt. Enormous debt, universal
corruption, widespread pestilence, wars

dable sort, famine, a heterogeneous and

The woman's Christian Temperance

The Woman's Christian Temperance
Union met at the residence Of Presi-
dent Hamlin, on the afternoon of
April 20. The meeting was opened by
scripture reading and prayer. The
secretary's and treasurer's reports were
read and adopted. The juvenile COM
mittee stated that the subject Of tenn
perance had occupied, this month, more
time than usual in the graded school.
In one of the rooms the compositions
ware upon tobacco, and the youthful
writers treated the theme with marked
ability, giving many good reasons why
It should not be used. In the same
room Prof. Mead has given lecture OF
an hopr upon the charts. This lecture
10 considered by the scholars a rare
treat. Before long the compositions In
the same room will be on some other
temperance topic, and the ladies ex-
pressed desire to 60 and hear them.
Lessons also have been given In the
lower schools this month. The third
Wednesday in May will be the annual
meeting. The evening will be devoted
to dime sociable in accordance with
the proposition of Capt. Woods, who IL

Iooxers-on In Congress.

The spectators are often as interesting
in their way as the representatives.
Sometimes one-half in the mems galleries
are negroes. Every grade Of uncouth-
ness or Of fashion is represented among
the on-lookers of both branches.
"Wheer do they daunceP" asked tall,

prospective feminine voters in the
opposite gallery. "Wbeer do they

The number Of regular attendants,
too, is surprisingj for watching the

fascination, akin to that of gambling.
