making a bid for the noruination on

His first order a taking command of
the Fifth Military District cau hardly
be f -;und fuilt with, inasmuch as it re
commends the abstinence of military
inferforeuee with civil, authorities ex
cept in cases of necessity. Though
this is tho letter of tho order, it ia evi
dent, from certain acts of the General,
that it was not conceived m the1 prop
er spirit. Competent officers have been
removed and bitter rebel partizans sub
stituted. Just and healthful luws have
been repealed and the control of State
matters bids fair to pass into the hands
of Preaident Johnson's parasites. This
lust was the motive fur the sending of
a special message to Congress, by the
President, last week, wherein he enu
merates his past valuable services and
present use and prays that a vote of
thanks bo tendered tho gallant soldier
by that honorable body for his at

of execute them. Naturally enough

of it as the coolest joke of the season.

The Democratic party, remarks the
Tribune, proposed a few years ago to let
tho negro vote, on the ground that he
would vote just as his former master
told him; yet, by refusing to carry
out their own proposition, showed that
they did not believe it to be true.
The same party still contends that the
negro will only voti as he is told. If
so, why don't somebody tell him to
vote the Democratic ticket ?
. ' Tho Democracy arc very active in
publishing reports that the Radicals
are securing the votes of the negroes
by oners of land; and yet the only
negro wIid has secured land by voting
was one near Richmond, Va., who
had a farm presented him by the Con
servatives fir voting tiic Democratic
ticket. He was right. Suffrage is
good, but a farm is better. He'll vote
the Republican ticket for the res! of his
life, and own Ids farm besides. .When
the Conservatives can nflord to buy
up colored votes so expensively, the
negro is in a fairway of getting his
rights. The Democracy arc proclaim
ing in one breath that the negro is in
power in tho South, and that they arc
planning insurrections. Who ever
knew tho party in power to get up a
rebellion agaiust ' the party out of
power? They arc also publishing a
great mjny crudely invented accounts
of fearful negro outrages in the South,
in 'which' the" outraged'- and inocent
white man fires the gun, and tho vio
lent and uncontrollable negro is shot
through the heart. . -
But the subject on which .the Dem
ocratic organs harp most feelingly are
the "black-aud-tau . iconventions."
They . forget that from tho time the
Apostle baptized tho Ethiopian, aud
doubtless befure, the Heaven of the
Christian's hope became a "black-and-tan
convention." . ... , .

ed and impulse controls the judgment.

occasionally sends forth an effort reson

that its usefulness is not entirely
eclipsed by its more pretentious neigh

class attending the Academy, under
the supervision of JIUsE. M. McClin-
tock, whose efforts in the Musical De

cess. The music consisted of sacred
songs and ant ncms, which were wen
received by the audience. As it was
held in the M. 11 Church, they were
not allowed to make any demonstra

were conducted with consi lerablo

present interesting topic, of female

a success, owing to the fact that many
persons are opposed to paying for such

we used to have exhibitions free, but
now they must bo paid for. In reply,
we urge that it is only a small shift
ing of financial responsibility. The
Students used to get up the perfor

i"""7...,r t",, Oerurrci-A
The telegraph oil last Wednesday
uight gave us meagre liarlieulars of a
terrible 'accident on the Lake Shore
Railroad, which oceured on that dav
near a place called Angola, twenty-one
miles iroiii iiullalo, tlie train from tho
West, due nt Buffalo at 1: 30. ruiiniiiff
off the track nt that point. We have
the following additional Particulars
from the Erie Dispatch Tho train
passea Angola station. at a -speed ,oi
twenty-live miles an hour, and upon
leaving the "frog" which connected
the double tracks at the station, the
last truck of the last car lumped the
rails and pounded along tlie ties. The
signal bell was sounded, but the train
was on a down grade, with snow on
the rails, nnd beforj any perceptible
effect. could be produced upon its speed
it had reached the centre of ft high
embankment located a few rods. cast of
the station, and the last car was run
ning wild over the embankment and
bridge. Within ten seconds of the
time when the entire train' mMit have
gotten entirely over the bridge and em
bankments, this last car swung around
so as to leave the i-ond bed entirely,
and at the most precipitous point ol the
embankment went over, on a fteop
slope, into a sulf forty feet below. The
action of this car caused the one ahead
of it to leave the track and rush madly
down the opposite side of tho embank
ment, a few rods further along, at least
twenty-five feet below the rOad bed.
Now comes tho horror of the scene.
These two cars having parted with the
train, which could not be stopped until
some distance had been made, the last
one of the train, and the first to leave
the track, when over on its end with a
force which caused every "passenger,
the stoves and nil tho scats of the car,
to sink 'like a dead weight in (he lower
end. It turned a complete somersult,
and stopped on its side near the bottom
of the precipice, forty tcet below the
track, the other car rolled down and
rested on itsside. Thpsijjnul of'down
breaks" bad attracted the attention of
the people at the station, but none ol
them were able to roach the scene soon
chough to render ellicicnt 'assistance.
Wc gather from the lips of those who
were first present, tho following particu
lars. The last car of the train had no more
than stopped its somersaults before it
was on' lire. Tho nature of the em
bankment, togeather With the ice upon
the steep declivity, would not ndmit of
immediate assistance, even though
hundreds of people had been nt band,
for no one could go down the bank
hurriedly without lcarof death. The
men who were first at the scene man
aged to roach the car by going down,
ono linliling upon another, thus lor
niiiiga line from the track to the car.
But they were too late. Tho men, wo
men, and ehrildren in the car had been
so severely injured by tho fall and
fright that they were alarmed and
helpless, and before the feeble assistance
which was hastily organized reached
them, the car was so far enveloped in
(lames that theirrcscue was impossible.
Thesccnc at this timecannot bo describ
ed. Tlia voices of men directed tobeaven
for help, the shrieks and prayers of
women asking tor assistance, nnd the
wailing of children, was the most soul
piercing and agonizirtg' sounds which
ever reached mortal car. The flames
were gaining rapidly, and arms were
protruded through tiic shattered win
dows, heads were extended, and the
cry for help was intensified by tho in
crease of heat, of pain, of agony, and
tho certain' prospect of destruction.
The reader must picture this scene, we
cannotdeseribo it. Our cars wilf never
lose tlie sound of tho plaintive waib-,
the besecehing for help, the heart-rending
shrciks, tho fiery scene nnd the
last, last look. Tho few men who
could, who' Were not struck dumb,
worked manfully. J hey succeeded in
taking out three persons, who were
removed elsewhere to die, but they
could not subdue the flames which
were roasting their fellow beings alive.
They could npt answer the prayers of
the agonized victims ot IJeath. 1 hey
could do nothing but look at them
roast, listen to them shriek, sicken nt
the sight, and pray God to deliver
them from another such scene. As
the odor of burning flesh, human flesh,
arose upon tho air, it seemed as though
the spot had turned into a very hell,
and when shrieks came from the flames
and ,n noke, hands were he'd aloft
through tlui grim atmosphcre,thc world
and flesh seemed a mockery and worm
in reality. It us close tins horrible
scene by saying that from the last in
formation w'e could obtain, but five out
of forty of the passengers in this car
escaped.. ' The rest fully forty were
burned alice 1 . "
Meanwhile the other car was more
fortunate. It did not take fire. Tho
first man out of it was tho conductor
of the train, who was severely injured.
Others came, out and when assistance
arrived many were found injured unto
death'. It was soon cleared of its mor
tal contents much sooner than the
flames could consume the other v&r
and its contents. As the injured ones
crept or were brought forth from this
car, they were removed to the residence
of a gentleman near by, who threw
open his house nnd dispatched mes
sengers for help. At one time wc
counted twelve wounded men and wo
men in this house, who appeared to be
dying." A little distance off there was
another house, where several more
were as badly injured. All that could
be done by the assistance at hand was
done with a will, but thcro were no
nhvsicians. no stretchers, nothing to af
ford anything like what tho nature of
the case demanded. :
' Inside of two hours from the timo
the accident occurred physicians and a
coroner arrived from Buffalo, under
order of the railroad company, and the
physicians immediately seB to , work
with a will. . They did what was in
their -power, but their assistance avail
ed but little, except iu trilling injuries,
Most of tho victims were bevond tlir
help of man.
Then camo tho frantic inquiry after
friends, Hie rush to and fro of passen
gers who had been saved and had
friend) or relatives on the train. The
appeals and importunities of these wc
will never forget. Shocked almost
beyond endurance by the scene pass
ing, they could only" nsk for informa
tion in that feeble 'frantia way which
cannot - bo answered at such timo to
their satisfaction. All of them found
that somo cherished one was missed,
hut whether dead or dying could not
be immediately ascertained. ' '
At tho hotel near the station was a
man named Hubbard, from St. Catha
rines, 0. W., who was oue of tho few
taken from the burning car. His feet
aud legs were burned to a crisp. His
body was blackened and blistered to
the waist. His right arm was torn
from the body, and remained attached
only by the skin. lie lay there two
iong hours in agony, and at last death
camo to his relief.
The dead taken from tho cars, and
those who died from their injuries,
were removed to the freight house of'
tho station. . At the timo of our visit
there were sixteen of those bodies laid
along close together as they had been
brought In, a ghastly nnd sicken
ing sight. Some Ui them were burn
ed. Tho atniospbero was loaded
with the odor of burning flesh. Most
of them seemed to to have been killed
outright by the concussion of the roll
ing car which was not on fire. There
were fifteen of them we have said but
three of these, so far as we could
discover, had been burned, Tho bal
ance had been killed or die.l of wounds
received in the car which did not
burn. And according to the best es
timates there were at ieast th'rty-twd
persons who went to ashes with the
ear which burned. We looked along
the lino. Win. II. Ross, of North
East, was the only face we recognized.
But the coroner was ready to com
mence 'an examination. 'The Claim
Agent of the road was aiso present. A
Buffalo physician proceeded to divest
nockcU of their contents, which be
handed to the Coroner, who examined
hem and called them aloud to the re
porters, afVr which they wero deliver
ed to the receiver. It was a sorrow
ful task.
