FIRST EDITION T J &.A.LS TER Particulars of the Railroad Accident Near Clarksville, Tennessee A Scene of Horror. Tim Louisville Courier-Journal of Thursday Elves the following account of the recent acci dent on the Memphis and Louisville Kuilroail, eitht miles from ClMrkeville, Tonn.: The accident occurred to passenger train No. 'i, from Memphis to Louisville. In crossing the bridge end trestle over Kudd'x creek, eight miles below Claiksville, at 1 o'clock yesterday morn ing, the greater part of the structure gave way and precipitated the whole train Into the valley or bed of tuo creek, from an altitude of about thirty feet. The train consisted of locomotive, caboose, express and bnggnge cur. two passenger coaches, and one sleeping car, all of which were dashed almost to splinters, and afterward, with the exception of the sleeping car, entirely de stroyed by lire. ritorr.KTV nrvniovF.n. The fire made nearly a complete ruin of the train and its contents. Only three, passengers eitvcd their bnggnge. All the remaining private property, save the garments, money and jewels upon the persons of the passengers, was con Binned. The express books nnd papers were saved, and from the.in it is ascertained that there was about tl(K),0(K)in the safe. At last account from the wreck the safe had not been recovered The destruction of the cars, express and mall matter and baggage, Involves u loss little if nuv short of ;i00,000. WHAT THE PASSENGERS SAY. As described by those who were aboard the ill fated train whcn'it went down, the situation was awful in the extreme. In conversation with the above-named gentlemen, now at St. Joseph's In lirmnry, we have gleaned many interesting par ticulars concerning the disaster. Most of the through passengers from New Orleans disem barked nt Memphis for Chattanooga, and the curs were partially fdled up to the time of the accident. Soon after leaving Paris, whore the train men are changed, the passengers retired for the night. An increased rate of speed was noticed by the passengers, and It operated to make many of them wakeful. Mr. McColl, one of the killed, was even alarmed nt the rapid motion of the train, and expressed his conviction that there was danger ahead. Other gentlemen in the same sleeping car shared this feeling of insecurity, and two of them, Mr. Doll nnd Mr. White, rose and dressed themselves a little while before the terrible crash. This idea may have been imaginary, but there was n fatal connec tion between it nnd the fallen trestle. THE MIDNIGHT HMAhll-ri'. About 1 o'clock the sleeping travellers were nwakened by a sudden rough movement of the train, as if it" were off the track. After this jolt ing motion the train appeared to come to a sianusuu, nnu mosc who naa uccu aroused con gratulated themselves that ull was right again, lust at that instant, they say, the train was on a poise ready to fall over the trestle height. In another second the whole lino of ears had pitched dowuwnrd, nnd lay a crushed and ghastly heap In the basin of the creek. Notwithstanding the tinning and shattering of the cars, and the indiscriminate wreck of human beings, hardly a voice was heard. The stillness was as profound as death. Two spans of the bridge, about fifty feet each In length, nnd four bents of the trestle fell. The speed was so high that it carried the train under the track on the other side of the creek. The train fell in a zigzag or letter S po sition, ana so lay upon tne ground. THE WKKCK ON FIKK. While, the unhurt passengers were humanely engaged lu releasing and caring for those inca pable of helping themselves, the di'bris of the train took fire from the engine furnace. This occurrence, dire as it might have appeared, created no undue excitement, owing to the pre cautions adopted bv the cool-headed men per forming the work of extrication. The fire burned slowly, beginning nt the engine and gradually approaching the rear sleeping-coach. The euti're train aud contents, us we have stated. were eonsumed.except the New Orleans sleeping car, which was badly damaged, dearly all ol the bridge nnd trestle-work also fell a prey to the conflagration. A I.ONEI.V MT.CTACI.E. On the side of the trestle upon which the train fell is a dense thicket, and the place has gene rally a dismal appearance. The wounded men nnd women, being thinly clad and mostly bnre looted, suffered greatly from exposure to the night air, which was sharp and chilly. Their situation was toriom indeed. ?io one Knew whence to look for assistance. It was finally suggested that some one reconnoitre the ground and tind means lor succor, tn uoout two uours after the catastrophe twohoursof Inconceivable allllctiou of mind and body the Houth-going train arrived upon the scene. The living nnd dead were tenderly transferred to this train and taken to Clarksville. Here, It is almost need less to mention, the victims of the deplorable and fatal break-down received the most devoted attentions at the hands of the citizens and the olllccrs of the railroad. THE FATAL HTlttrrTl'KE. This consisted of four spans of short wooden girder bridges joined to a trestle, aud were but three years old, while the trestle was but two years old. It was thought to be a perfectly safe portion of the road. The rcmuauts of timber left standing show perfectly sound. All endeavors on the part of the railroad com pany to discover the cause of the accident have been fruitless so far, as the bridging Is nearly nil burnt. Some of the surviving passengers, however, attribute the casualty to either or both the reckless speed the train was making or the Insecurity of the bridge und trestle-work. It is not believed to have resulted from any defect In the machinery of the locomotive, us the en gineer, w hose life was sacrificed, was known to be exceedingly careful in that matter. The tra velling public should be Informed of the true origin of this fearful disaster with the least pos sible delay, and no doubt the railroad authorities will act upon it promptly aud rigidly. The NiihinIi-iiu on llip New Jersey ltiiilrantl -.Hlntc iiIoiim Kmcuim of llie 1'itMSeiMern. The New York n'm of this morning gives the following particulars of the railroad uecideut near Newark, N. J., yesterday: The Washington train, duo in Jersey City nt 4- 55 I. M. yesterday, met with a serious acci dent on tin; southern outskirts of Newark, at 5- 1S I. M., by which the locomotive was de stroyed beyond redemption, the track torn up for some distance, and the whole train thrown olf, but miraculously without loss of life. The train which met with the accident was ubout an hour behind time, in consequence of an accident in the early part of the day near Washington. After leaving Elizabeth, they ran across the meadows ut ubout forty miles an hour, and when turning the curve near Broad street, about three-fourths of a mllo south of Chesnut street station, the engineer, Kdward l'alge, saw a signal flag of danger a short dis tance ahead, and blew down brakes sharp. Heforc the speed of the train had been very ma terially diminished, the locomotive struck a band-cart loaded down with Iron rails, which half-a-dozen laborers were pushing along on the same track. , The concussion was a very severe one, send ing the heavy iron rails flying in all directions, and throwing the locomotive oil of the track to the right. At the same time the track was lorn up, ana coiiliequemiy tlio cnUrg train, con sisting of the mall car, baggage car, and four Eassenger cars. After tearing along for two undrcd feet, the locomotive jumped over to the southern track, where It was brought to n sud den stoj) by some of the Iron rails which had pierced it and doubled up under the fire-box. The tender keeled over on Its side, and the mail car breaking loose, smashed down a telc graph pole and shot off nt nearly a right nngle, demolished a high board fence, and brought up on Its side In a much damaged condition at the rear of a citizen's dwelling. The baggage ear followed lu the samo direc tion, but the forward trucks being broken to pieces, It plunged head foremost Into the sand, and left the rear truck across the track. The passenger cars were also thrown from the rails at the first shock, nnd had a rough passage over the tics, but were not much damaged owing, it was said, to being provided with some body patent bumpers. Those who witnessed the collision say that if the men having the hand-ear in charge had not become panic stricken and lied, they could have pset the car off of the track. The accident ap pears to have resulted from not having sent the signal (lag further around the curve, and alo lu allowing the hand-car on the track at all when the express train wus over due. . niillxtonc Hurled Down n IIIII-lde Horse nnd Cnlile Killed, and the Ileal li of Several Children Caunt-il. The Louisville, Ky., Efpn-s gives the follow ing particulars of a strange and fatal mishap which occurred near Princeton, lu that State: A man by the name of Hoot Crow was baulinj upon bis Wagon two lmmeuse millstones, one of which weighed 3850 pounds. While passing along the side of a high hill the heaviest stone rolled from the wagon and sped down the de clivity with fearful velocity, crushing small trees and shrubbery in its course. The house of a farmer, named Darnell, was situated at the foot of the hill. The millstone went crushing through a fence, and into the yard of the farm er's house, where were a number of beehives. In the yard were playing a bevy of children. The beehives were nil upset. The bees, iu con fusion, .lighted upon the children, stinging every one of them in a frightful manner. The progress of the grea t stone was not im peded in the least bv Its collision with the hives and went bounding into a stock pasture beyond the house, it dashed through a herd of calves and horses, killing two of the former and one of the latter almost instantly. The children in the yard had been completely covered with bees, and each one was stung by them until their per sons were entirely covered with w hite swellings. One of them died a short time nfter the terrible occurrence, and the others are entirely speech less nnd blind. They can hardly recover. The bounding millstone finally struck against a large limestone clilf near the house, and was broken into atoms by the concussion. IOHNt'H bvtlie tirent Flood in Texas. The (ialveston, Texas, News .says that a gen tleman well acquainted witli the. whole Colorado valley, from Austin dowu, and who examined the most of that, valley immediately after the overllow in 1M52. gives the following ns a near approximate estimate of the loss of cotton by the present overllow in lour of the river coun ties : In Colorado county 8,000 bales. In Fayette county 6,00a " In liastrop county 4,0m) " In Travis county 2,ooo " Total 20,000 bales. The above estimate is based on some know ledge of the extent of bottom lands cultivated, and on letters recently received showing the elevation of the water. Very little information has been received of the condition of the coun try below Columbus. The same gentleman has received, however, a.lcttcr from one plainer sta ting that almost one third of his crop has been destroyed. I'll AXIL. Iuunlurntion from Europe and the I'nited Htalcs A correspondent of the New York Tribune, writing from Kio Janeiro, June 27, says: From tabular statements of the immigration movement in Brazil for the year 18tiS, furnishnd to the Kio Janeiro press by the Official Agency of Colonization, we gather some very interesting statistics. The number of immigrants landed at hio Janeiro during the year was 81555, to which must be added about 8500 landed In the southern provinces, making the total immigration for the year throughout the empire not more than 12,000 at the outside. More than half of the immigrants were Portuguese; the tiermans rank second in point of numbers: and the English (with whom arc included the Scotch and the Irish) come next. Spaniards are few, but there is a respectable number of French and Italians. Of the French, there were several families from Algiers, hardy, robust farmers who left their homes on account of a terrible drouth which reigned in that country. They settled in the province of Parana, whero they have since been joined by nearly a hundred of their countrymen, who sailed directly from Marseilles for Brazil. The number of North Americans is put down at 405. About 250 of these were from the South ern States, of whom more than half went to Brazil at their own expense, and nearly all had friends or relatives already settled in the empire. Including the Tartar expedition with 117 per sons from New Orleans, 182 North Americans received "assisted passages" from the Brazilian Government The German immigration has augmented rapidly in the last few years, owiug to the good management of the Brazilian Immi gration Agent in Germany. A table is given showing the emigration from the port of Kio Janeiro, from which it appears that the immigration exceeded the outgoings by 4I1!6. No fewer than ii;lS North Americans lctt the country during the year convincing proof of the failure of the scheme for establishing an American colony in Brazil. With 405 arrivals and 58S departures, the residuum Is seen to be very small. Of the !5:iS who left, about 100 were immigrants from the Southern States. The Brazilian Government, iu its anxiety to promote immigration to its shores, has made liberal arrangements to assist In paying the pas sages of immigrants to Brazil. During the year 1 xt'iS the aggregate number of thoso who received "assisted passages" was I2.'!'i. More than half this number were British subjects; I5S5 were Ger mans; 132 North Americans; and only two Por tuguese. This is remarkable, considering that more than one-half of the total of immigrants of the year were Portuguese. During the year 55 vessels, of various nationalities, arrived at Kio Janeiro with immigrants. Brazil has a Passengers' act intended to pro tect immigrants on board the ships which take them to its shores. This law applies to all ships carrying four passengers iu the steerage to every hundred tons of burden, its execution is cou tided to the Official Agent of Colonization, who visits the ship Immediately on Its arrival into port, makes minute inquiries with regard to the treatment which the Immigrants received on their voyage, proceeds at nce to an investiga tion, if the complaints are sufficient to warrant it. and imposes such a line on the vessel as he mav deem just If those complaints prove to bo well founded. It is claimed that, owiug to these excellent regulations, which are rigidly carried out, eniigrnnts to Kio Janeiro are better pro tected than even those to New York. The great majority of the emigrants going to Brazil are laborers and agriculturists. Democratic papers in Illinois aro insisting that in the framlug of the new State Constitu tion special attention shall be paid to the tem perance and Bundny questions. In this respect, they say, tho present Constitution should be al tered in the sense of more' liberal reforms, and to this end, in all those counties where the Ger mans have influence they should use that in fluence to secure the nomination and election of candidates who possess liberal ideas, aud who are adyocatci of modern progress, SECOND EDITION LATEST BY TELEGRAPH.

The commander of the vessel, Lleut.Com. Thos. O. Sel fridge, ordered the naino of the man off th3 sick list, and that he bo placed on working duty. This order Sur geon Green refused to obey, thinkfcig that a re turn to duty nnd exposure to the sun might pro duce a dangcroHB inflammation of the wound. For this offense Lieut.-Com. Self ridge pre ferred tho charge. A third -charge, of "conduct unbecoming an ollicer," is added. Surgeon Green was appointed from Connecticut, nnd is a son of Commodore Joseph F. Green. This case attracts much atten tion, as its decision will determine whether the commander of a vessel or its surgeou has tho right to decide when a sick man is able to do duty. The trial, which commenced on Thurs day, w ill occupy ubout four days altogether. I'lirrlinNCM for the Navy. A general order issued from the Navy Depart ment declares that In all cases where contractors provide articles of an inferior (piaHty to those called for by the contract, and at a time when expedition is required, or fail to provide the ar ticles at the time stated In the contract, the com mandant will order the purchasing paymaster to go into the market aud purchase the articles on the best terms for the Government, the differ ence In price toj be charged to the contractor; or, in the absence of order from the comman dant, the purchasing paymaster will do the same.

The Boston Trarrlier says: It will be remembered that a telegraphic de spatch received from San Francisco reported that the crew of the ship Southern Cross, of Boston, had been poisoned at Manilla. .May IS. but whether they hail died was not stated. A letter received here from the captain, dated Mav 10, says that twenty-four men of his crew, out of twenty-seven, had been poisoned on the lsth by drinking coffee, but fortunately medical aid had saved their lives up to the hour of writing, and he was In hopes that they would soon re cover. How the poison was put in the coffee was a mystery. It could not have been the cook, for he was among the sickest of the men, and at one time it was thought doubtful whether he could recover. Tho event caused much excitement ou shore, nnd the police were Immediately put iu requisi tion to find a clue to the perpetrator of such a diabolical act. The coffee was taken ashore und subjected to analysis by the chemists and mili tary surgeons. As later dates have been received from other sources, and us no mention is made of any of tho men having died, we infer that they all recovered. About the 8th of June the ship was reported nearly ready to sail for Boston. Advices since received state that the ship Southern Cross had sailed from Manila May 28, for Boston, and hence we Inter that her crew had recovered. E. K IL IKTELLlUt: Hi CI3 . Court of Quarter Neulona Judffc Fierce. To-day the Court, was In session at the old court room, to complete the business of the July term. During tho first two weeks of the term a petit Jury was in attendance, and by the commendable Indus try of the Judge, District Attorneys, and all cnpraired In the conduct of tho business, the heavy prison calendar was so disposed ns to justify a vacation of two weeks, during which time the new court-room has been undergoing a thorough cleansing and air ing, of which it stood in need, ami those persons whose calling keeps tnem confined In the crowded forum all the year have been seeking recreation in more genial quaitcrs. The next term is to be held by his Honor Judge Brewster, who, it is understood, intends to dispose not only of the prison cases that have been accumu lating since the middle of July, but also the bail cases of the term aud those remaining over from April and May, to effect which he will no doubt re quire double daily sessions, and most probably night sessions. To despatch public business speedily Is a most laudable object, but during the long hot. days of Au gust the Jurors, witnesses, lawyers, aud perhaps the Court Itself, will find it an ungracious task. I.unnry Ciuie. Before Judge Peirce this morning application was made, upon habea corpus, for the discharge of Mr. James Barret from tlio Pennsylvania Asylum for the Insane. The proof was that last spri ng the peti tioner became troubled In mind over family difficul ties, and took to excessive drinking, which aggra vated his already Impaired understanding and made blm unfit to be at liberty. lie was, therefore, placed In the asylum by his relatives, under oillce found by a commission, and warrant Issued by Judge Hare, In pursuance to the recent statute upon the subject, anil was confined there from May 29 until a few days ago. At first excitable and violent, he had since boeomo culm aud reasonable, and by his attendant la considered sane and harmless, though the physician says his mind is sMll deranged. The managers of tho asylum ex pressed no desire to detain him, and his Honor, viewing the whoie case, thought it proper to grant his discharge, and so ordered. FIXAIVCJK AND COJIMEKCi:.

Is inevitable. In New York money is reported very easy at 5frt percent., which is fully 1 per cent below the rales current here. Tnia condition is very exceptional, and It Is dlillcult to account for it on any plausible hypothesis. We quote call loans at Cm i.7 per cent, on Govern ment pledges, and street, loans at s,12 per cent, nominally for good paper. There is some pressure on the outside market, which accounts for the irre gularity in the rates.

"The markets were dull to-day, perhaps most bo since the summer season set In. Kvcn the Vander bllt stocks were comparatively inactive and ne glected. Tho money market was without new fea ture, exoept that there was a shade less inquiry for funds. The rate on call was 6 and 7 per cent., with the usual exceptions at B on prime collaterals. The chief attraction of the day was the Government market, where considerable excitement prevailed over a remarkable rise in all the Issues, based upon direct speculative purchases of stock houses, who still boldly assert that Secretary Houtwcll intends to continue his extra purchases of bonds during the month of August. "Nothiug is known ofUelally from Washington with reference to the matter, but the operators referred to announce that they have positive Information of his plans. The termination of the July purchases Inst Wednesday Induced a great many 'bear' sales, and several prominent Government dealers are re ported 'short' of the market I'erhaps the stock operators saw an opportunity thus presented of making a 'comer,' the scarcity of some of the Issues being such as to enable them successfully to manage one, and the less bold Government operntors have been caught In their own trap. It Is an Interesting tiattle between the two classes of Wall street ope ra! ors. "The stock operators are shrewd and have long been watching an opportunity to 'twist' tho tJovcrn nicnt men, whose professions ol 'more legitimate' business have rendered them somewhat, unpopular. Napoleon, it Is well known, goes to war for an Idea. Here are two sets of business men In desperate con test, arising out of a like unsubstantial origin. Tho rise of five-twenties in ixnidon to S31, materially aided the 'bulls,' for the German bankers came In as buyers. At the top of the market In the afternoon the 02's sold at 12fi,S and the 67 s at 122 V The speculative interest was again xtrong ou tne teu tonics, the coupons selling at 114), and upon the currency sixes, which rose to UOr. "Towards the end of street business there was a re action from the highest prices, and the market closed at 6 o'clock this evening with the following quota tions: t'niled Stales Oh, 18S, registered, la3r 123;; do. do., coupon, WtttVU; do.

"At the close of the homicide trial vesterday, In the Court of Oyer and Terminer, Judge t'ardozo told the District Attorney to give notice to the persons' who had pleaded guilty to the indictments for usury to attend on the Kit h of August, at eleven A. M when sentence would be pronounced. "Foreign exchange was barely steady, the offer ings of second class bill being quite abundant. The range of quotations was as follows: sterling, 60 najro ouiiuiiciiiui, iir.fsiia ura ; good to prime bankers', M9'4.110'. ; Hhort sight, llowsmo.': i ne goiu market was dull and the naYj transac tions the result of sales on the 'bear' side. The feel ing for a decline was stimulated by tho light engage ments of specie for the City ol llrooklyn, which sails to-morrow, and the price broke to 130 ''. From thlB point there was a sharp rally to 136?,, Just before the closing of the Gold Room." Flillndelplilu Trade Report.
