Sleighing Accident.

On Monday night, about O'Clock, q
sled accident took place in the city,
which may terminate somewhat
seriously. 1t would seem that Mr..
Alb an than Bingham was driving a sled
from Riverdale, having GA board Miss
Margaret Bingham. his sister, young
lady well known in Ogden, when, BY
some means, Mr.. Bingham was thrown
to the ground. The horse then became
1nmanageable, and went on in its mad
career until it reached tree standing
almost in front of the lot of Mr.. Thos.
Browning, on Main street, nearly OPP
posite Seventh street. Here the sleigh
came in collision with the tree men
toned, and Miss Bingham was pitched
violently out, and fell heavily against
the tree, seriously ihjuring her face
and otherwise shaking her consider
ably. The horse continued its wild race
for ABOUT fifty yards, when it ran with
great force against another tree,
damaging itself. Miss Bingham, though
seriously hurt, it is believed and hoped
that her recovery will be q speedy one
The sleigh was broken and the animal
seriously injured, A party following in
another sleigh placed Miss Bingham in
their conveyance, and conveyed her tC
he residence OF Mr.. Joseph Wright, or
south Main street, where she is receiv
ing hs attention that kind hearts Car
suggest.

WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH THE
TREATY.

The Tribune, in a spasm OF exasper-
alton, calls it "a shameful treaty." We
should be greatly grieved at this were
it not that our neighbor is professionally
retained to denounce everything dem
ocratic and to eulogize everything re-
publican. If the Tribune should esti-
mate any act OF the administration by
its merits rather than by the rule of
offensive partIsanship we should look
tor the crack of doom within the next
twenty-four hours and send u score of
expert reporters to give al account of
the accident in the next mornings
Herald.
By the way, the feeling in favor of
commercial union with the Unite d
States seems to be growing apace on
he other side of the st. Lawrence.
The closer the Canadians can get to US
the happier they seem TO be. II they
have something TO sell us and we have
something TO sell them they see no
reason why the process OF tree swap
ping should be interiered with.
Even Mr.. Chamberlain, however,
declares that commercial union Is an
extremely dangerous thing, because by
and by the Canadians viii want
political union, too. The United
States and Canada, 10 thinks, should
be kept apart o: they may fall in love
with each other, and the British llon
would never consent to have the
Wedding March played on such an
occas sion; and as tor giving the bride
away, he couldn't think of it foc q
minute. When Mr. Froude asked u
Canadian if he would like to become a
part of the republic he replied, If
Barring Brothers should invite ME TO
become member OF their firm do vou
think | would object ?"
Well, well, there is time enough 10
think of that. The matter is not in the
air and there is no profit in wasting
time on dreams. What is wanted now
is simply friendly relation which will
enable both parties TO sell and buy aud
make penny or two by the trAusac-
son. In this treaty business certain
concessions had 10 be made by both
sides, but on the whole the upshot has
been fair and square.
Still, there is sclno party capital to
be got ont of il and it would be n Great
pity not 10 make things a. disagreeable
~ circumstances allow. The republi
can senator who can't growI at what
ever the democracy does is not tit for
his position and should instantly re.
sign.
