THE RAILWAY DISASTER.
Latest Informnilon Gtraaed Proarreaa of the
lurimri'i la vcktiaallou.
rot'OHKEFPsiE, Feb. 10. At the inquest to
day DaLitl Carroll testified as follows:
I reside at Old Troy, south of New Ham
burg drawbridge; I am eight watchman and
Bwitchiuun at the station; I was on watch at
seventeen minutes past eleven P. M. on Mon
day, looking out for the up express, which
was due at bine minutes past ten; I looked at
tbe middle of the oil train and saw fire flash
ing amoi g the axles; I knew it was a broken
axle, and hallooed to the boya to keep out of
the way; then the broken wheel hopped from
the track, severity-nine roda north of the
drawbridge; I followed the'engino down,
t lying to signal the engineer
by motioning my light ; seeing
I could get no answer, I then ran
back to the conductor in the caboose; I hal
looed, "There is a wheel off the track; put on
your brakes as tight as you can; "two men
came out and put on the brakes; I knew the
express car was overdue, and heard it coming
this bide of the low pput; I could do nothing
to stop it; there is a light kept on the draw
bridge tower all winter, and men have charge
of it; the light was there that night, a white
light, indicating "all right," and it remained
till it was burned down; men are kept there
to look out for it; I was standing north of
the station when the oil train passed, and
when I notified tbe oonductor of the oaboose;
it was a cold night; it is eighty rods from
the fetation to the drawbridge, aud eighty
roda from the drawbridge to the water-tank
south at Old lroy; tbe tower signal is used
only for hignalling the opening or closing of
tbe draw; I have been night watchman at
hew Hamburg twenty-one years.
Cornelius Hoe sworn Was engineer of the
oil train; my attention was first called to the
accident on my train when I reached the
trestle work ou the bridge, to atop at the
water tank at Old Troy; then I felt a shock;
looked and saw the tram was separated;
hallooed to the brakeman on the car nsxt to
tbe engine and said, "Don't pull no breaks
ob me; the rear of the train will run Into
tue;M I then beard some one hallooing
toward tbe rear of tbe train; I grabbed a red
light, and did not atop to look back, aa I saw
the express coming, and I ran down the
track; I met the flagman just above bis
fcbanty, and said, "For Ood a sake, put out
that wl ite light and get a red one and come
with me;" the express was half a mile below
me when I left my engine; I ran two hundred
feet from where my engine stood to the flag,
man's station; we ran about forty rods below
tbe latter when be met the express; we were
tignallirg all the while; the express was com
ing at f idl speed; they blowed their whistle
just as I got off the engine; I saw no signal
from tbe rear of my train before I stopped,
rrr did my fWwm; I don't think a he'l
coid would bave rung sny bell va Uia uui; J
I gave one whistle for brakes, expecting to
stop for water; I must have shut off when th
fiignal was given though I did not see it; I
slut off for water.
At tbe evening session Tearner Van Sicken
testified I saw the bacRace car fall; Just
before that I saw a man come out on the rear
platform of it; he leaped to the platform of
ice liufialo car, and took hold of the knob of
the door; be went in about one-qnarter of the
way; I mean about one-quarter of the way of
tbe car, as I judge, when the car on the north
end of it, which he went in, settled down
raduHlIy; then tbe whole bridge seemed to
tive wsv. that part under the south end of
the car first; afterwards I saw a man prilled
out in about tho same place; I sv no flames
about it when I went don; I was on the ice
boat about a hnudred feet from it; the Buffa
lo car was on the trestle work; the bggng
car was already down; when the Duffalo car
commenced to go down I hallooed to my com
panions, "Look at that man;" when the north
end of the Buffalo car weut down it appeared
to go down straight; tbe man I saw go into
the car bad a enpon with a square front;
it looked like tbe caps worn by sloeping
car conductors; the express was going
rnpidly and tbe engine was exhmsting as
though she W8i, reversed with steam on.
J. M. Inucev, Superintendent of the Ilud-
Fon Hiver lload, testified in regard to the
rules of the road. Tbe only point elicited
was that the use of bell ropes on the train,
which tbe rules required, was neglected, but
be thought no time was lost in signalling
dapper on that account.
The inquest adjourned until Thursday,
February KJ. Up to 11 o'clock to-night
nothing new has taken place at the wreck.

ENGLISH NEUTRALITY.
M. GUIZOT ON TUG FRENCH SITUATION LETTER
1U JUIl.
In tbe loner letter which M. Gulzot has ad
dressed to Mr. Gladstone, ho holds that the
"valuable principle of neutrality is capable of a
much wider application than It has yet received.
YWiyebouid not t-e two bunks of the Uuiue
cease to be a standing menace to France and
1'ruhPia, and ceas-e turout'Uout a i;iven lumnti
and breadth to bridle with fortresses and cuu
nous? There can be no doubt that if such a
stipulation is really just and valuable it must be
reciprocal; Mayence aud Landau must be dis
mantled, as well as Strasbourg and Meiz.
Nothing could give a more certain proof that
both France and Prussia arc anxious to secure
real and tatting peace." The second great
means of prefcerving peace, according to M.
uuizot. is "toe maintenance ot toe balance of
power In Europe, aud tbe value of congresses
and conferences oi tr.e treat powers to main
tain or re-establish tbia'equilibrium." That the
VtotK ot emicrent congresses (to which be
relers) has been faulty and defective, and that
mediocrity and petty feeling bave bad a lare
tbare iu them, M. Guizot is well aware. "But
1 am equally certain, be says, "that tbe bal
ance of power lu Europe has always becu, and
will always be in priuciple. lust, reasonable.
and liberal; and that on tbe whole its results
bave been most favorable both to peace and
progress throughout Eurooe."
ai. ouizoi ciot-es-witn an appeal to Mr. u lad-
stone to take up the cause of tbe balance of
power and the maintenance ot peace In Europe:
Y ill tou nut (he asks) defend them against ambi
tious del-pots aud conquerors? burely In the nine
teenth century this would be the grand, the natural,
and the historic duty oi England. For fifteen Tears.
In your noble struggle ou their behalf, you hvl
trance for an adversary ; ror tne future, may 1 not
rather say now, you have her as an ally. Moiern
France baa had her feverish dreams of arubtMon and
conquest. She has paid dearly for them, ami a dark
fate still frowns upon her; ttislnsof her past are
visited upon her w lieu ineir seison is over, when
they only seemed to recur for a moment, that she
night prove she had reiinunced them. I grant that
in this ardent and impetuous nation mere are sun
traces ef the old tsts aud old faults. Mhe Is
easily led asfay by brilliant novelty and by t'e
pomp and glorj or arms jv evert neies, tms is not
now her real Inclination and her true meaning it Is
only the inovemei't that still disturbs the surface of
tne ocean nen in Tempest, is enuen. u ne real and
eaiui st desire of France now Is for peace and the
development of her fruitful Industry. France Is a
country or asaldnous agricultural, industrial, and
commercial work ; a country In which we Ond prac
tical and scientific civilization, a strong vitality, anil
yet love of peace. She now wants time to reap the
irultof her part experience, and to learn the value
of that DOlltlcal freedom for which she has not
ceased to sigh for thre vfourttis of a century,
altoongh she has never Known now to use it or to
keep It, lu such a path Englaud Is her most natu
ral and valuable ally.

him to attend the London Conference, aud of
CouLt Bismarck s reply:
31. J-'avre to Count Biitmarck.
Pakis, Jan. is. Lord Granville has informed me
In Ins despatch of the 291 li of December, 87o, which
1 received on the evening of tbe loth of January,
that ycur Excellency, at the request of the tiugllsn
Cabinet, has placed at my disposal a safe conduct,
uhlch Is nectssary for tbe Plenipotentiary or France
at the Li ndon Conference, in order that he mar be
able to pass the Prussian lines. As I am mentioned
lu that capacity, I have the honor to request you to
forward the safe conduct In my name at s on aa
possible. Accept, etc, Julks Favks.
Count Bttmarck to SI. J tile Faore.
Vkkbaillka, Jan. 26.
I beg your ExceKency, In reply to your two letters
of the lUth Inutaut, to allow me to clear up a ml
nnderstaudlug. Your Excellency assumes that, ou
the proposal of the Government of Great Britain, a
safe conduct la ready for you In order that you
bhould lake prrt In the Loudon Conference. Tula
asbumpMou ft not correct. I could not enter upon
an ettietbl negotiation, thn basis of which U the pre
supnofcillon that the (Joverumniit of the National
Defense Is internationally In the position of b'Han
able to negotiate lu the name of the French people
until at least It baa been recognized by tne
French nation luelf. I Imagine that the
commanders of our advanced pos's would
have framed your Excellency permission to pass
through the German lines bad your Excellency re
queued such permission from the conitnauder of
tbe besieging army. It wonld not bave bee a wlthlu
the province of the latter to take Into regird the
political altuaiiou or the object of your journey,
and tbe authorization to pass our lions grauted by
i he m Hilary leaders, which from your standpoint,
adn.iliofio question, would have left the ambas
sador of bis Majesty the King In Loudon free la re
ference to the quebtion wheiuer, according to Inter
national law, the declarations of your Kxcellency
are to be regarded as the declaration of France,
to assume tbe proper attitude, aud ou bis side Had
forms by hl. h every prejudging of matters
mlpht be avoided. This plan your Excel
lency has, by your official request for a safo
conduct, with the oitlclai declaration that the object
of jour journey was to represent France at tbe
Conference, rendered Impossible. The above-men-Hi
bed political considerations, In support of which
1 refer to tbe declaration which your Excellency ou
the 12th Inst, ofllcl Uy published, preveut my com
plying wiih your wish that such a docu uent should
Ihj firwardrd. lu communicating this to you lean
nly leave to you aud your Government to xon-
s'der whet ner any other war can be discovered in
which the above-mentioned acmplea can be
allayed, and every prejudice arising fro. a your
presence in London be avoided. But eveu if such
a Plan can be discovered, allow me to ask If
Itzibe aavisame mat your Excellency should
leave Paris and your post as a member ef
the Government there, in order persoual'y to
taxe part In a conference about the Blaclc Sea, at a
mi ment when Interests are at S'ake lu Paris whmli
are' more Important for France and Germany than
article 11 or the treaty -of ism. Your Excellency
would also leave behind In Parts ine diplomatic
agents aud subjects of neutral Ptau a, who have re
gained, or rather have been dotalued. there lonir
after they had received permission to paaa through
the German lines, ana who mj, uieirio, bo mncn

cellency and the Minister for Foreign Affairs of the
Government d o. to. I can, therefore, scarcely
suppose that jour Excellency, in the critical post,

THE CREDIT M0B1LIER.
Tbe fflellea for Plow Trlul Overraled-Opl-
iaf Jade Prarava.
Judge Pearson delivered an op nlon In the
above mentioned case on Wedueidny, la Ilarrle-
burg, of which the following are tho tssentlal
points:
Fouiteen reasons bave been assigned by the rte
feudni.t'i counsel for a new trial la thu caso, all of
which huve received the care' til consideration of
thecouit. Many, si we eouceive, are founded on a
misconception of the language lined In tno charge,
the meaning of which Is quite dlilerent from tout
Imputed. 1 1 was onr denlre to caref'illy follow and
cany out the decision of the Supreme Court, which
we toot tC be a bluulng exposition of tho law of the
case. If we have ni'sunlerbtixid or departed
f'om It In any particular, It was turoug'i
lnsdveitsnco or Inability to comprehend its mean
ing, and not by design. The S;ipremo Court wld
fairly construe onr latigungi;. as we have th'Mrs, ac
cording to what we believe to he its purpoit aud
defctpn. We cannot believe that the jury was mis ed
ly aiiUMli contained Incur charge, nor that wo
iiibstatcd or mtssppiled the law. If we have, it will
doubtless be corrected on a review by the court of
hist resort. The facts have been submitted to thi!
jury, as we nndcrstend iroiu tho opinion, as was In
tended by Hint tribunal.
It is stri.' uMy complained that the court stated li
substance to the Jmy, that wheu the olllcets of tha
t'otrn.onwcalth found that when dividends were
made au ong the stockholders of a corporation
aiiiiuellv, or half yearly, precisely la the ratio of
stock held by each, thy had a rlgU to presume that
the same was nisde out of the profits of tho corpora
tion, unless that was explained or repelle 1 by proof.
We still adhere to t int opinion. The boos of tie
c nipary show that the dividend were so niad.
Whether that was sunicleLily explained by proof of
the transaction between Mr. Ames, the trustees,
and the Credit Mobilier, and ih nresumpt.on thereby
repelled, wis fairly left to the jury.
In prisentlng a enlcula'lon of the cUIra to the
Jury, the counsel lortlie Commonwealth, as we con
ceive, fell Into a material error by Including the sum
of 20,4i7-3o as due tinner the 8d sectlou of the
act of April T, ISTn. At the time this act was p.vssed
the ileleicant had sought redress by writ of error,
sgalnst what It considered an uujnst, and what
proved to be an Illegal, Judgment. Thn act Is ex
tremely penal, and, as we conceive, was intended
to spply to those who withhtld her just dues from
the State. There were thousand of eases to which
Hie law could applv without atl'ecting suits pending.
This clam was Introduced In the hurry of biHi
ni s.8 st the close of a protracted trial, wimoot the
knowledge of the court, and has been allowed by
the Jury, i rroneously. as we conceive. The Com
nonweslth must therefore remit the sum of
176,477-80 irom the amount of the verdict, else a new
tilal must be grauted. On the sura being remitted
by the counsel, Judgment will h entered ou the
verdict. John J. Psakhon,
President .ImUe.
The verdict was for J636,8CS-33. Thn counsel for
the Commonwealth remitted the 820,471-30, and
Judgment was entered lor the Commonwealth for
010,iilt3.
A new transcontinental pcheme of commu
nication is proposed. Tbe Trustees of the Ver
mont Central Railroad have purchase I all tho
boats and other property of the Northern Trans
portation Company, on the great lakes running
from Ogderisbunr. to Duluth, Minn., where thev
w ill connect with tbe new Northern Pacific
Railway. The plan is generally commended lu
Vermont, and will lead to important results.
Tn an unhappy hour a Cleveland judge ven
tured to argue the point with a female advocate
of woman's suffrage. A local paper tells the
result. ''Ills ready antagonist met bltn squarely
at every point, answering him in the most clear
and decided manner, nearly all the ladies pce
eent reinforcing her continually.".
