misfortune of our neighbor, FL. A. New
bury, who fell from a load of hay upon
his head and neck. paralyzing his spine
from his shoulders downward. Doctor
Stevens says that Mr.. Newbury has no
sensation below his stomach, and is
helpless, save slight use of his arms.
Mr.. Newbury is most genial man.. and
is respected by everybody for his kind
ness of spirit to all-rich and poor alike
and his urbanity of manners; and yet
he never stultifies his ideas or personal
ity for the sake of saying !" Yes yes" to
everybody for the purpose Of being
agreeable. All feel like putting on
mourning at his sad mishap, for every
heart is tinged with sadness.

have gone to Nebraska for the benefit Of
her daughters health Not long since

may be stayed, and that she may come
back to Bristol with renewed health.
