An accident occurred on the H. & 8. rail road at iho fourth mile post uear tho Paper Mill. There is a deep cut there through rotten rock and Hmcstofio. Considerable of earth is intermixed with tho looso stone and rank weeds and grass grow upon tho surfaco making it seem perfectly safe. The heavy rain of Sunday loosened up tho ma. tcrlal. Just ns tho early morning train, which leaves hero at 0 o'clock was passing around tho eurve, tho vibration brought the slide down, nnd tho engineer beheld with horror, about ono hundred tons of earth and rock land just In front of the train. Tlio cnglno was reversed, but too lato. The train plowed through about two thirds of tho slide, scattering tho rotten rock and limcstono on both sides of tho track. Tho pilot of tho engine, and tho back truck of tho passenger car wero dis placed, throwing each crosswise upon tho track. Tho engineer kept nt his post. Su perintendent Leader, Col. John Jamison, and six or eight passengers wero In the car but no ono was Injured. Tho new engine which just arrived was Immediately called Into scrvlco and did good work. It was nearly ovening when tho earth was ;rc- moved and the wrecked train brought back to tho depot. In order to prevent any re. cur re n cc at that point. Superintendent Leader directed that all loose earth bo re moved, nccordincly about one thousand tons wero taken away, and tho road made absolutely safe. Travel on tho road was very little delayed. Tho engine north brought tho passengers and freight to the placo of wreck and they were then convey ed to the train this side of tho wreck and brought to the depot.

Tho Knights of tho Golden Eaglo aro a very flourishing order, as will bo seen by lato reports from tho grand castle. Tho order Is in successful operation In twenty. thrco States.

Tho three degreos aro sym inlio of a soldier battling for his faith. Ho is tirst a pilgrim, then a knight, and fin ally a crusader. Ho has for his aim that of a Christian warrior, struggling to gain the immortal crown. Tho lessons taught in tlio degrees aro impressive and calculated to lead men to a higher existence, thcro being nothing of a frivolous or objection able character.

Yours of tho 20th of Juno In answor to my Inqnlty to Bccrotary Bayard as to whether tho Btato department had any knowlcdgo of tho .cxlstcnco of an or ganization In this country or clsowhcro having for Its object tho emigration of colored peoplo In largo numbers to Brazil and the soveral Central and South American countries, and It so whether they wero go ing thcro as bona fldo emigrants encour aged nnd protected by thoso governments or under such contracts to labor as will re duce them to a condition ot Involuntary servitude, and If to, would Mr. Bayard use bis lnflucnco as Minister of Btato as far as may be compatible with Internationa law to prevent such wrongs as might bo perpetrated upon a credulous people You Informed mo In yours of Feb. 0 that tho Stato Department had no knowlcdgo ot the exlstcnco ot any organization in this country or clsowhcro having for Us object tho emigration of colored peoplo from this country to Central and South America. I was glad to bo Informed however that Mr. Bayard mado tho necessary Inquiry in re gard to tho matter through Iho Representa tives of our government In thoso countries. In yours of Juno 20 1 found enclosed a copy of Minister Jams' dispatch No. 133 to Mr. Bayard In Which ho states that ho has no knowlcdgo of any organization sanctioned by tho goycrnmcnt of Brazil for tho pur. pose of importing American negroes Into that country and that Brazil wns looking to Europo for immigrants. Ho stated that 1 n would look Into tho matter and mako a moro extended report. I also received two copies of tho Ilia Knca dated Starch Cth and 21th, In which tho editor In speaking of colored immigration grnphlcally'scts forth tho inconvenience which they would bo subject to, In those countries. Although his homo is thousnnds of miles from our shoro nnd under Monarchical government, where tho Portuguese lnnguago Is spoken, ho seems to bo thoroughly conversant with tho American continent. Ho writes upon matters that aro transplilng In this country with the enso and quick slghtcdness of n most enlightened Journalist. You will please transmit any Information that may como to tho Stato department that concerns tho wclfaro of my raco (Iho African). ou will plcaso accept my sin. ccro thanks on behalf of tho State depart inent for tho promptness of action and also on behalf ot Secretary Bayard for establish, log an efficient Foreign Servico, and Presl dent Cleveland for bis earnest endeavors to administer tho government upon truo de. mocratlc principles as was laid down by Jefferson, that la ot tho peoplo and for the peoplo and by tho consent of the people. Yours respectfully, Bteitien W. Hill, Espy, Pa, I will not intrudo upon your valuable space by copying lengthy editorials upon tho subject but will give you a few brief extracts. Tho Now York Herald of Jan uary 20th contains tho following dispatches from Kansas City dated January 10th in regard to a schemo for colonizing African laborers in South and Central America. "A movement effecting many States, hundreds of thousands of people, has been inaugur. atcd in this city and now assumes definite shape. What tho political conscquenco will be no one can tell. The headquarters of the new movement aro in Topeka, Kan sas. Tho work to bo done will bo in tho Southern Stntcs." Tho Rio Neva speaks as follows of tho Topeka schemo. "It would appear from our latest American exchange that tho Topeka scheme for establishing colonies of American negroes In South nnd Central America Is making rapid progress in the south and is attracting widespread attention. Tho promoters of the scheme in Topeka, Kansas, havo effected a regular organization under tho corporatcd title, "The South and Central American Immi gration Leaguo of tho United States of America," whose capital stock Is placed nt $2,000,000." The Rio Xetcs is a Brazilian paper published in the city ot Rio Janiero, I beg lcavo to state that the writer of the foregoing In giving publicity to tho abovo is aware that tho peoplo of this section of country havo little concern In the wclfaro of tho colored race. It will bo of Interest to many however to know tho friendly attl tudc of the administration towards us and how it Is appreciated by somo of us. I am not prepared to say to what extent tho colored peoplo !n the Northern States will support President Cleveland in the coming election. I am not working in the interest i ' i Olltioal pnrtles but for tho welfare of ray lace, it Is my duty therefore to stato to what extent tho administration has assisted and also my belief that it was done In good faith.

We have made an extra push this season lor good quality Car pets at the least possible price In Brussels there are three sorts besides the Wanamaker that will make a stir.
