From the New York papers of this morning
we take the following additional particulars of
the Hudson River Riilroad disaster:
WRETCHED lNHUMANITV.
Help was tardily sent for and tardily arrived,
Superintendent Toncey seems to have tried to
do his duly, but disorganization and "confu
elon worse confounded" reigned. AH the stories
fireviouely told of the inhumanity displayed are
n part true. This is partly chargeable upon
the railroad laborers, but more so upon the
fiends who swarmed like vultures around
the bodies, robbed them, broke open
trunks, rifled them ot their contents, read
letters found upon the bodies with jeers, and
indulged iu various vulgar deviltries. There
was no control exercised over t&em until Mr.
Charles bullock, the Cold Spring station agent,
drew bis revolver and drove them away. Mr.
II. O. Eastman, of Pongbkeepsie. also rendered
valuable services in enforcing order. These and
other gentlemen deserve credit for their
deeds. They labored up to their knees la the
water and oil, taking out the bodies and caring
for the property.
CONDITION OF TflE BODIES.
They state that the roofs of the two first
sleeping-cars were entirely blown off by the
explosion, and the bodies for the most part were
found floating upon tho surface of the water,
face downward, their clothing being saturated
with kerosene, as was the inonev, jewelry, and
papers found oil their persons. All were elegantly
dressed, one lady wearing. costly diamond rins,
watch chain, etc. Some of their limb) were
burned to the bone; other oarts we re parboiled.
Their faces were swollen but not distorted, aud
Indicated that one or two gaps of suffoca
tion ended the death agony. The oil had given
a saffron tinge to some parts of the skin, and
the eyelashes and whiskers of the men were in
some cases burnt off close. Nearly all retained
their hair. But one, a lady, had her face de
stroyed. APPEARANCE OF THE ItCI.NS TIIE NEW BRIDGE.
The appearance of the ruins is desolate In the
extreme. The new bridge is nearly in order to
run a train over, and all the energies and sym
pathies of the railroad company seem given up
to that work, rather than to the tak of searching
for the lost bodies. Rails and iron-work from tho
wreck, warped by the intense heat, car-wheels,
half-consumed trnnks. and the charred ends ot
timbers are plied in confusion in tbe ghastly
creek. A strong odor of kerosene pervades the
air, and the snow-clad ice Is moist with the oil.
ThroDgs of country people surround the place,
with countenances overspread with consterna
tion. And, singular to relate, merry sleighing
parties are made up to visit the dreadful spec
tacle. DR. NANCREDE.
Dr. Samuel J. G. Nancrede, who lost his life
by the disaster, was a native of Philadelphia,
son of the late eminent physician, Dr. Joseph
(. Nancrede, and grandson of the old naval
hero, Commodore Truxtoa. Dr. Nancrede re
ceived both hla classical andj'medieal
education at the University of Pennsyl-'
vania. He took his medical degree in
1851, but having inherited a sufficiency of
worldly goods, and being of a delicate physical
constitution, he has never practised his pro
fession, though, since his residence in this
city he bas acted as medical examiner to one
of our life insurance companies. He was well
known, and much esteemed in the higher
walks of social life in his native city, and
much beloved by a large circle of personal
friends who deeply deplore bis untimely
crd. He bas resided in the city for the
last two or three years, during which time he
bas been a great sufferer from the trout, for the
relief of which most distressing malady he bas
made two or three visits to the famous waters
of St. Catharines, Canada, whither be was bound
fn fearrh of health when the destroyer overtook
tiro. He leaves a wife and son ten years of age,
to whom he was most tenderly attached, and
whose grief at their dreadful loss cannot be
measured. -

Important 4anoanceineut from Oti. Mrhenrk.
The Washington correspondent of the N. Y.
Tribune writes:
There Is tbe very beet authority for the an
nouncement that the Alabama claims and the
fishery troubles are to be immediately settled.
Minister Sebenck. in conversation this evening.
remarked that tbe public will kuow within
twenty-four hours why be is detaiued, and the
lnfereuce drawn from this aud other hluts
dropped in otficial circles is, that a commissioner
will be in this city to-morrow with power to
negotiate a treaty, and that oeneral ocheucK H
to have charge of the matter on the part of tbe
Lnited states.
. It is known that a proposition for a partial
settlement has already been made by authority
of the Britlfch Goveruuient.I'mt that, the terms
Icimr unsatisfactory to the United States, the
negotiations were postponed. It is supposed that
tbe agent wno is expected to-morrow will Have
uioie extended powers. Mr. Sumner savs there
is no ground for the statemeut, editorially made
by a New York journal, that he ttauds 'in the
wav of a settlement with Kngland, unrlnir that
no arbitration can be complete which does uot
include tbe question of the premature recogni
tion of belligerent ritrhts.
Tbe New York Times' correspondent savs:
"There will be 6out to the Senate to-morrow

pondeuce which has takeu place within tho ptst

Tbe Cincinnati Times of Tuesday evjnin:
ears:
Last ever ing, In the quiet little suburbia to vn
of Greenwood, adjoining Locklatid, there was
enacted a bloody sensation which disturbed its
usual tqnanlmity. A colored mn by the tia ue
of Robinson, who has on two former occasions
I fen ci neerned in very serious affairs, one of
wbich wue the killing of a man about a- year and
abHlfao, was tbe principal aggressor lu this
terrible affair.
It appears that Robinson, like "O hello," hid
been utllicttd with the pangs of jealousy for
some time part, lie felt luut uoiumg wo'ild
satisfy him In liis then moody and revengeful
disposition but blood, and with that object lu
Mew armed lilmseit with two revolvers aud a
cat bine and started on his bloody and treache
rous mission shortly after nightfall. Arriving
near the colored Methodist church in Green
wood, be stationed himself where he could
obtain a good view of the front door.
Here be awaited with the ferocity and Impa
tience ol a bloodhound uutll the services were
over, aud then, as the congregation had ab mt
nan enictgea into ihe open air, be tired his c.ir
bine iulo the crowd. This shot failing to wound
any, be again placed bis carbiue to bis shoulder,
and taking belter aim, again tired. A shriek
followed the report, and a pierclnz cry raug
out, "Good God, I'm shot !"
Consternatiou low took possession of tho
crowd, for the second shot had convinced them
that it was a deliberate attack made upon them.
Some ran into the church and others, m jra un
daunted, gathered arouud the wounded mm to
ofler assintance. But no sooner were they
gathered around the prostrate man than a
third and a fourth shot were fired by the con
cealed assassin, and this time Copeland was
shot. Agnln the crowd wavered, some fell bick
into tbe church, while others sought safety by a
rapid retreat elsewhere.
The demon seeing the crowd 11 vine. emDtled
the chambers of one of his pistols, and this
time wounded Mr. Busby and his wife. Tuls
seemed to satisfy Lis thirst for revenge, and he
made an attempt to escape, but he did not suc
ceed, for that same eveuiug he was pursued and
hunted like a wild beast by the excited popu
lace. He was finally secured by the M ir.-hul of
Lockland, and placed iu durance, but such Is
tbe animosity exhibited by the friends of the
sufferers that it is feared he will he summarily
disposed of by a tribunal of bis fellow-citizen.
come ot tbe parties snot are badlr wounded.
and our informant, Auditor La Rue, thinks
dnngerously.
Such a liewdish attempt at wholesale murder
has seldom been made. Had the parties who
bad aroused his jealousy been singled out as his
victims, the analysis of his fiendish uess would
be clear, but to deliberately fire Into a promis
cuous crowd is beyond comprehension, unless
he was indifferent to who were the objects of
his wratb, and that murder by wholesale was all
be desired.

The N. Y. Express of last eveniug says:
About 11 o'clock la-t night, when the keepers

The New Orleans Commercial lS'illetin of the

accideut reported by telegraph:
Yesterday about noon, a singular accident oc
curred in lront of the store o' Mr. Laurent Uter,
dealer in looking-glasses, etc.. iu the Toure
buildings. Five or six workmen were engied
In setting up a large glass plate In the frame
of tbe shew window, to replace a broken one.
The plate being of unusutt dimensions, aVjut
eight feet by ten, the operation required con
siderable care and no little skill. A geutlern in
passing near the place at the time entered te
store; and, in a eomewnai omctous manner,
warned tne workmen ot mo gre n a ingers at
tending such operations, at the same time hi
exhibited one of bis wrists v. here could be
plainly seen an ugly scar, occasioned, he said
bv an accident resulting from putting up a simi

assist the workmen, saving tun be undertoo t
tbe business thoroughly. Ills offer of services
were declined several times, but ha persisted
in bis determination, and actually took hold of
the fcla-s as It was being pushed into the show
case edgewise.
The employes were inside the window, while
tbe young man stood out-lde and grasped tho
lower corner of the plate. Just at this moment
a large piece o the upper comer of tbe glass
broke, tailing npon the young man s neck aud
sliding dawn to the sidewalk. The other work
men' naii while let go their bold, and the re
mainder of the plate was also shattered to
pieces. The young man, as be arose from the
around, to which he had been prostrated, said
' Send for a doctor," nnd his life's blHd was
seen spurting fr m bis neck in large qmntUles
He was immediately led into a drusr store,

accident.
At the inquest a post-mortem examination

Opeolna;
of the RnKlUh Parliament Tha
uoeen'a rieeen.
London, Feb. 9. Parliament reassembled to
day. The following is the Queen's speech de
livered at Ibe opening of the session:
"Lords and Gentlemen: At an epoch of such
moment to the future fortunes of Europe, I am
especially desirous to avail myself of your
counsels. The war which broke out in the
month of Ju'y between France and Germany
has raged until within tbe last few days with
unremitting ard likewise with unexampled
force, and its ravages may be renewed after
but a few days more, unless mode
ration arid forethought, prevailing over
all Impediments, shall sway the councils of both
parties, whose well being is so fatally con
cerned. At the time when you separated, I
promised a constant attention to the subject
of neutral obligations, and I undertook to use
my best endeavors to prevent the enlargement
of the area of the war, and to contribute to the
restoration of an early and honorable peace.
In accordance with the first of these declara
tions 1 have maintained tho right and strictly
discharged the duties of neutrality.
"The sphere of the war has not been ex
tended beyond the two countries originally
engaged. Cherishing with care tbe cordiality
of my relations with the belligerents, I have for
bore from whatever might have been construed
asgiatultous or unwarranted interference be
tween the parties, neither of whom had shown a
readiness to propose terms of accommodation
such as to bear a promise of acceptance by the
other.
"1 have been enabled on more than one occa
sion to contribute towards placing the repre
sentatives of tbe two contending countries in
confidential communication, but until famine
compelled the surrender of Paris no further re
sult had been obtained. The armistice now
being employed for the convocation ot an assem
bly in France has brought about a pause in the
constant accumumulation on both sides of
human suffering, and has rekindled the hope of
a complete accommodation. I pray that this
suspension may result in a peace compatible for
the two great and brave nations Involved, with
security and with honor, and likely therefore to
command the approval of Europe and to give
reasonable hopes of a long duration."

The Berlin flIUalon.
Special Despatch to the Eveniiuj Telegraph,
Washington, Feb. 9. The Houne Foreign
Affairs Committee at a meeting to-day had up
the special message of the President on raising
tbe Berlin ml-blon to one of tbe first class. The
committee seem to be a good deal divided upon
the subject. It is urged that if the Berlin mis
sion is increased in point of dignity anjl salary,
bo ought the mission to St. Petersburg aud other
places. Members are of the opiuion that to
single out the German confederation, while
other great powers are overlooked, would be
construed as an affront. Tbe committee hive a
special meeting on Saturday to dispose of this
luaiter and also of tbe
Alabama ana Fishery Qaeatleaa.
In the mean time a special message is ex
pected from the President to-day or to-mor-low
on tbe fishery and Alabama questions.
Immediately after reading the journal this
m n.ii g Mr. Hooper, Chairman of tbe Ways
id Means, moved to go into Committee of tue
Wuole for the purpofe of takl ng up the bill for
tie repeal of the
Tax on Incomes.
It was fought at every stage by the opponents
of repeal, and finally the House refused, by a
vote of 103 to 107, to go into Committee of the
Whole. This vote indicates that tbe House is
not disposed to repeal the tax unless the matter
can be thtroughly discussed

Tbe Jersey City people are greatly excited
on tbe sut'ject of a new charter. The charter
prerented in tbe Htate Legislature pr icttcally
gives tbe municipal administration into the

many cltlens who prefer tbe present form of
government. On the other baud, many of tha
more enterprising and inlluential clflzens favor
the proposed charter as calculated to put an
end to the evils of Irresponsible rule.
Governor Merrill's queer remark. In address
ing the Iowa State Prison convicts, that he was

Inland State prisoners, in the course of which,
bis hearers were admonit-hed not to sleep in
fmnll, confined rooms advice which the poor
f, now wnnM pindlv bsve followed, even at the
lira ol trpiug in U ttu aa.
