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.

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.

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,

Washington, July 31 The following are tho
facts which will be elicited by the court-martial
now sitting here for the trial of Passed Assistant
Surgeon Charles L Green, of the navy, ou the
charge of disobedience of orders and treating
his superior with contempt, preferred against
him by Lieutenant-Commander Selfridgc:
Iu February last, while the United States steam
er Nipsic was lying at Asplnwall, nu ordinary
seaman named John Simmons was under medi
cal treatment for a severe wound in the head in
flicted by a cutlass. 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

or, in the absence of order from the comman

same.

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.

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.

Our local money market to-dav, though very
Irregular, as usual of late. Is rather easier in conse
quence of Improved supply. The disbursements, on
account of the Treasury in the purchase of United
State bonds arejnmstly absorbed in New York; hut a
portion finds its way to our market slowly, aud if the
present Treasury policy continues during tlio niout li
of August us in the present mouth, an Improvement
in our money market. 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 bulk of the oilenngs are
generally taken at '10 per cent, bevoud which
business borrowers of good standing aro unwilling
to pay unless under a pressure of circumstances.

loans were neglected. City sixes were steady at

NEW VOUH MONEY MARKKT.
The following extracts show the state of the New
York money market yesterday :
From the Herald.
"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

"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."
