One load of twenty-four, journ eyed part way on foot, as their horses were unable to draw them through the immense snow banks, and we hear several of them left their overshoes in the snow for some summer pedestrians to appropri ate. But after they reached their desti- JLittle I'aUs. nation, they well made up for the un pleasantness of their coming, by immedi ately commencing and long continuing their programme of entertainment. Several ladies and gentlemen from Her kimer were present also. All were agreed that th e y had rarely enjoyed so pleasant an evening. A terrible accident occurred in the eastern part o f our village Saturday last, which resulted in an undescrlbably agon izing death ofChai’les Wolher o f Mohawk. about 12 o’clock Saturday, Mr. W . descended in the well o f Mr. H enry Myers, (who resides near the village line of Mohawk and Ilion), for the purpose of cleaning out the bottom . T h e well is about 4 2 feet deep. W h e n Mr. W . had gotten within about 10 feet o f the bottom, a stone upon which he rested his foot gave way, and im m ediately the entire wall caved in, burying him under its im mense weight. Preparations to remove the stone were immediately commenced, and soon after the accident a large body o f will ing men were diligently working to remove what they could but suppose the crushed remains o f the unfortunate man, and more earnest and livelier -work -was never done. When the three noble and bold who were working w ithin the weU, had gotten within about five feet of the bottom, they sent up aery to the anxious crowd above which electrified them with joy. What could have astonished them more than to hear “ he is alive.” The noble men worked then even faster than before, and at 12-30, midnight, ( 12 J hours from time o f uccident), the almost lifeless and horribly mutilated form o f the poor victim, was drawn from the well-— Although his vital powers were almost exhausted, and sensibility well nigh gone, yet he was perfectly conscious, talked and recognized friends. Drs. Fox, Comstock and Rasbach, were in attendance and did all that could be done to resuscitate the unfortunate man, but tbelr efforts were unavailing, and he lived but an hour and a half after his rescue. H is left leg was badly broken, and bead and body very badly bruised, aud probably he m s in jured internally. When found, his bead, rested upon a large stone in the bottom of the well and a stone rested! on his head, and his body was immovably fixed by im m ense stones p ressing against him , and that he lived iu such a condition for so long a time, is little ,short o f a miricle. Being conscious, the agony he suffered and the horrible thoughts he must have endured, were probably such as few per sons have ever realized and none can de scribe. Mr. Wolber was about 30 years old; an honest hard working hut poor man, who strived Iiard to support Ms wife and four children, who ape loft to mourn his sad death.

People sometimes ask why does Dr. R . V . Pierce, o f Buffalo, N . Y ., spend so much money in advertising his. family medieinea, which are so well known and' surpass all other remedies in popularity and sale. It .is well known that A. T. Stewart considered it good policy, and undoubtedly it paid him to spend many hundred thousand dollars in advertising his goofls, yet nobody questioned the ex cellence gf his merchandise. The grand secret o f success lies in offering only goods which possess merit to sustain themselves, and then through liberal and persistent advertisinglmaking the people tborougbly acquainted w ith their good qualities. Men do not succeed in amassing great fortunes, establishing thriving and perm anent business, and founding substantial institutions like Dr. Pierce’s Grand I n v a lids’ Hotel at Buffalo, which costs over two hundred tborusand dollars, unless MCoIiawJk. — The funeral o f Mr. Charles Wolber took plage Tgpsday afternoon. — L a st Ihuraday, P h il.

Dr. Pierce does not attempt to humbug you by telling you that his Golden Medi cal Discovery will cure all diseases. He says, ‘‘if your lungs are half wasted by consumption, my Discovery m il not cure you, y.et as a remedy for severe coughs, and all curable bronchial, throat, and lung affections, I believe it to be unsurpassed as a remedy.” The people have confi dence in his medicines, because he does nofc over-recommed them, and when tried they give satisfaction. His Medical Ad viser, a book o f over nine hundred _ illustrated by two hundred and eighty- two engravings and bound in cloth and gilt, is offered to the people at so moder ate a;price ($1.50, post-paid), that it is no wonder that almost one hundred thous and have already been sold.

VVe consider it im iluable and cannot .do without it. «S ^ T he T ribunb A lmanac for 1877, which is ju s t published, is clearly the best of the long series o f this standard politi” cal annual. The new editor of the Al manac, the Hon. Edward M cFherson, un til recently Clerk o f the House of Repre sentatives, is perhaps the most accom plished and complete political statistician .of the country, and every page of the Alm anac has had his personal labor and supervision. To meet the demands of the unprecedented situation o f our nation al politics m a n y i>ages pf n ew m a tter have been added to the Almanac—all of the highest value and importance. The his tory and practical workings o f the Elec toral College, for instance, can be more correctly and satisfactorily learned from the concise statements of the Almanac than from any other source, and with vastly less labor. T h e popular Presiden tial vote o f tho last fifty yoars, lists of all prominent officials in Federal and State Governments, and the minor civil offices under the former, the abstract o f the pub lic laws o f the last session of Congress, the tables o f revenue, banking, currency, trade and manufactures o f the United States, ai-e all given in this compact and cheap hand-book, which willFe wanted “ early and often” by ever citizen who pretends to even ordinary intelligence or the cur rent topics of that day. The price of the work (25 cents), compared with its value, is merely nominal, and is undoubtedly an excellent use for the money. The Al manac, this year, is one-third larger than ever before, but is sold at the old price. E . F , K u i i k e r g B i t t e r W lm e o f ir o n . • E. F.

In tho fall o f 1872, in jumping from my caiyiage I sprained my ankle and was unable to walk. An agent o f the Buffalo Courier c-alled a t my house, (of course you know what he call ed for—it was to collect my subscription) and finding me in great pain commenced telling a wonderful story about a most wonderful medicine that he had found in Buffalo and that he would go and bring to me for trial, as it was in his valise. Imagine my surprise when I found it was your golden relief—made here in Fre- donia ! I sent to yoU for a bottle, ar ’ after using it a few times the pain entir ly left and a speedy cure was obtained- This agent o f the Courier said he cou nob live without it, as he was an alm ost constant spfferer from Neuralgia, and that it was the only medicine that gave him instant relief. B o you will see that others appreciate your wonderful m edi- cine as well a s myself, and I will add that in all th e numerous cases where I or -my fam ily have tried it, it has never failed to give relief. So you will not wonder that we have learned to rely upon it in all those cases for which you recommend it. Yours truly, D. S. FORBES, 0. T. Moore, proprietor of the celebra ted wholesale tea and coffee house, 14 Front street, Rochester, N. Y., certifies ^that Dr. Fenner’s Golden Relief cured him of sore throat more speedily than anything he has yet found. His family has learned'\to rely on it in Headaches, Neuralgia, Rheumatism, Toothache, etc., and would nofc be without; it. C. W. Tenant, Fredonia, N. Y ., certi- fies.that two bottles o f Dr. Fenner’s Gol den Relief cured' him of a bad Rheuma tism, after all other treatment had failed. The best families in the land are now keeping it constantly in the liouse for family use, and attest to its extraordinary powers and healing capabilities to con quer pain and annihilate disease from the syatem, Ask for a circular entitled ‘ ‘ People’s Rem edies. ’ ’ For sale by deal- H*roxQ Mrs. Kobert Tizruer. of Unadilla.

I tried many remedies with out effect, until a resort to the Balsam was had, which, by the blessing o f Divine Providence, soon restored me to health. ‘The Balsam is now our resort when ever any of our family is attacked with ooughs or colds, and it has never failed to give the desired relief.

No Medicine was ever sold on such favorable terms. ] | l f it was unreliable it would be the greatest folly to guarantee it. It costs nothing to try it as it can be returned if it does not give sasisfaction after using two-thirds of bottle.
