When the staging began iolottcf-and sway, one of the men exclaimed. •‘Bovs, we are gone!” and lie leaped from the falling timbers, alighting, it is miraculous to state, upon the ground unhurt. The others remained at their jxxsts, aud were all. more or less seri¬ ously, and one or two pet haps fatally, injured. The spectacle, as the work¬ men lay in an almost crushed and mangled heap upon the groni.d, was one of honor—the groans and screams of the wounded titling the air ami causing the stoutest hearts to shudder. Drs. Morgan and Walker, of Coch¬ ran, and Dr. J. D. Hen man, of East¬ man, were at once telegraphed for, aud each promptly responded.—When they arrived at the scene of the acci¬ dent, the unfortunate men had been extricated from under the debris and made as comfortable as possible in the houses near by, where the doctors at¬ tended them—doing all in their power to alleviate their sufferings. We have been u liable to learn ihc names of all the wounded men, but are informed by Dr. Ilerrman that Messrs. Lee, Morgan and Evans are among those most seriously hurt. The* former is a citizen of our town, and received painful internal injuries, be¬ sides having the index finger of Jiits left hand crushed, perhaps rendering amputation necessary. Mr. Morgan also received painful injuries, while Mr. Evans is, perhaps, fatally injured, having had two or three ribs broken and his skull fractured. All of the unfortunate men. except Mr. Lee, who was brought home on Sunday last, arc still at the Empire Lumber Mills, and doing as well as could be expected. Dr. Iletvuian informs us that it i* indeed a miracle how one, falling the distance these men did, (over fifty feet) with heavy timbers thrown upon them, could escape death, lie states that the hand of Providence surely upheld and saved them from a premature cud. 1’lir Aeridrul at lim pirr-.-A True Ntatvineiit of (he Afiair.
