A CARD.

We are always happy to reply to
courteous and gentlemanly questions.
And in this instance it is an unusual
qualification and pleasure to be able to
set troubled, well, say mind, at
rest.
Hence we cheerfully inform the au-
thor ofthat great literary effort signed
I" Kirk" that the gentlemen whose
names are oftenest found in the local
columns of The HERALD, are our
friends, (than whom to defend no
pen would be swifter than ours,) and
who not only give us carte blanche to
so use them, but themselves furnish
us with more personal items than we
could possibly find space for; and We
have often and often demonstrated
with them for terming you Romeo"
Nick-names have such propensity to
stick.
You should really have prefixed or
annexed diagram to the fms of your
obtuse observations. 1t is cruel to
SO puzzle your readers" and subject
them to the imminent danger ofbrain
fever, tho you may have moth
ing to fear from it yourself.
They may safely infer that man
who" never accepted compliments"
would be able, as to natural curiosity,
to fill the place left vacant by the late
lamented Jumbo.
And if you have discovered how to
turn around the Post Office corner
without risk of colliding with other
pedestrians, here is chance to be-
come famous, and a public benefactor.
: All the fat men and women will
rise up and call you blessed f; and by
taking out patent on it, you might
do well.
In conclusion we would merely re-
mind you that the world at large is
discriminating, and there are places
in it where excess of figure will not
"make up" for the lack of some other
essential properties; places into which
even personal anatomy cannot carry
man, or vice versa.

GREENsBURG ITEMS.

The boiler to the saw-mill, short
distance east of this place, exploded
about noon today, and killed the
owner, Mr.. McGill. The mill was
stopped for dinner, and the men
were all away except Mr.. McGill, who
was standing by the saw when the
explosion occurred. His body was
blown. some distance away and was
considerably torn and mutilated-one
leg and one arm being torn off and
the top of the head crushed; pieces of
the boiler were scattered in all direc-
tions. The men at the boarding
shanty felt the force of the escaping
steam and some were forced to the
ground. The explosion was undoubt-
edly caused by using muddy water in
the boiler the valves becoming clog
ged in such way as to prevent the
escape of the steam. They were
warned not to use muddy water and
some of the hands threatened to leave
if the boiler was not cleaned and clear
water used: but all was unheeded by
the owner. Mr.. McGill is native of
Pennsylvania. His remains will be
sent to his home to-day. d.
