SAW. MILL ACCIDENT.

On Saturday of last week, while back
tending on the saw-mill of Miller Bros,
who are removing the timber from the
property of the Hartford Flint Company,
on the Susquehanna hills, near Castleton,
Marshal Hamilton, of Flintville, was
accidentally thrown into the big circular
saw and received such severe lacerat1ons
of the right arm and leg that he was
taken at once to the University OF Mary
land Hospital, Baltimore, by DIR. l. ii.
Tobias, of Castleton. The arm was torn
almost off at both elbow and wrist, and
Prot. Winslow decided to amputate at
once. The arm was amputated about
midway between the elbow and shoulder.
He stood the operation very we'll and is
doing splendidly at this writing.

THE SINS OF THE FATHER ARE VISITED
ON THE CHILDREN.

A touching coincidence occurred in JUS
tice Richardson's police court few days
ago in the commitment of Edward and
Thomas Matthews, colored, aged respec-
lively seven and five years, to thu
colored Home of the Friendless situated
in Baltimore.
Their father, Charles Matthews was
sentenced to the State Penitentiary some
months ago for larceny and their mother
had died but the little fellows were cared
for by a kind woman until her death
lately. Constable Coleman Sheridan,
whose heart towards little children is as
tender as girls, loaded one hand with
an apple and the other with candy and
the spry little picaninnie's eyes shone
like beads as they mounted car for the
trip to their big home
