BOILED ALIVE--A horrible accident occurred on the 28th ult., at Freeport, Armstrong county, by which a man named Frank McCallom lost his life in the following shocking manner. He was boiling salt at Mr. James' works, when by some mischance, he was precipitated head foremost into the cistern of boiling salt water. He succeeded in crawling out, but there being no one near to assist him, he unfortunately fell back again into the scalding brine. Notwithstanding this second and terrible mishap, he got out without assistance, and walked home. He was actually flayed alive, and after suffering unknown tortures, at last found ease in death, twenty-four hours after the accident. -Pittsburg Chronicle. ---------------------------------- ESTRAY--Strayed away from the subscriber, residing in Altoona, on or about the 1st of September, a LARGE BRINDLE MULEY COW.
