Killed in Oregon.
Jos. Connell, formerly of Mullett,
the unfortunate person.
The very sad intelligence was received
here last week, of the accidental death of
Mr. Joseph Connell, a former resident of
Eullett, which occurredfat Glencoe, Ore-
gon, on_ the 7th inst. l'he circumstances
of his death are as follows: -He had one
horselartek--' to -p -u•
chase a cow, anddrove up to the farm
gate just at noon, on his return, his wife
and faintly standing- in the doorway
watching him,. Before he could•disniount
the horse got frightened and started to
back, and in less time that -I -it takes to
write it, had fallen over backwards, Mr.
Connell being thrown beneath the horse
with fearful -.force,- the ground being as
hard as rock. One of his sons hastened
to his assistance, and found him 1.111C011-
8C1OlIS ; he was carried into the house and
medical aid summoned, consciousness re-
• turning in the meantime, but -he not being
able to speak or. move: On a doctor's
arrival he found that the brain and spinal
cord had been paralyzed, and did what he
could for hiim but all to no purpose, as
he lingered in great,agony until 4 o'clock
next morning, when he took to vonioting
and Choking, and death put an end to his
sufferings. 1
He was buried the next day, a very
large number of sympathizing friends
following the remains to the grave, and
his funeral sermon being preached the
following Sabbath. A faithful member
of the Methodist Church he had- labored
hard for about 4 year past to get a ehureh
erected at Glencoe,and with the assistance
of friends had succeeded, the church being
opened lit April, but he did not live long
to enjoy`lthe privileges he had labored so
hard for .z ;..He 'leaves a wife .and 10 chil-
dren to Mourn his untimely death, fortu-
nately in good circumstances. It had
been the intention of himself and wife to
come east soon, on a visit to their old
friends and associates, but the anticipated
reunion was ordained otherwise,
Mr. Connell was for a number of years
a resident of the 13tli con., -of Hullett,
(Mr. John Govi,er buying his farm) mak-
ing a large number of warm personal
friends during his lresidence here, who
vvill be very sorry indeed to hear of his
untimely and unfortunate death. About
8 Years agai he removed to Oregon, the
facility for getting land and salubrity of
the climate offering inducements which
he thoinaht did not exist here.

with the recent stealing of some flour from
Trick's Mill, that the parties were not only
tracked down the Varna Road towards

the guilty parties were. They were not
experts or 'they would have covered up
their tracks much better than they did.

yield him 45 bushels to the acre. He
should be careful toasee what it really does

more of it will be sown.
