The train which left tnut Hill at fifteen miuutes past seven ck, was passing along near the spot do ted, when a female, apparently about teen years of age, was observed walk upon the track towards the city, a t distance ahead of the train. Theen ier blew his whistle, but the girl in d of getting out of the road, kept on way, merely turning around and look at the approaching train. When too to stop the train, and when the engine within a short distance of her, she cov t her eyes with Iter hands and threw Bolf across the rail.

Smith, which was on her r from New xork to New London. 'J he itropoHs was making her regular trip in Fall River to New York. The cut ter of the steamer struck the propeller a ,le forward of the midships, causing Iter sink almost instantaneously. The Me polis received a severe shock, but was t seriously injured. On the propeller re. as nearly as can be ascertaiuod, four pi passengers and a crew of eleven per ils.

Incidents, ifv. — Among the thrilling and art-rending incidents eoniieetcd with the luster, a passenger relates the followinir: A woman was seen struggling inthewa r. supporting her infant child in her arms -a rope was thrown to her, which fell thin her reach, and which she might ivc seized and saved herself, by rcliti lishing her hold u{on her cilild. She iked tip. saw the rope, saw those who juld have given almost their own hold on lite to save hers, then pressed her tild to her breast and sank forever. Among the passengers on the Metropo t was Mr. George Tappan, a merchant of ew Bedford, and a man of considerable piperty. He lias lieen subject to fits, and lis on his way with his wife to visit the buth for hri health. When the disaster furred he was very much excited, and liile making some inquiries he fell baek ards in an apoplectic fit, and expired in lantly. While Capt. Smith was giving his stute- icnt an old gentleman walked into the cab- j i of the Metropolis, and approached with • D agitated manner. "How do you do, Mr. : lordon ?" said the captain, extending his j land, and at the same time averting his ice. The old gentleman took the proffer il hand, and said, in a tremulous voice," 1 ante to ask about my daughter—is /he live, or not?" '-She is gone,", said the Inptain. "Oh !my Canl!" exclaimed the lev man, as he burst into tears. There i<.rc he dry eyes in that cabin. After- j raids the Captain said to our reporter: . 'She was a beautiful girl, only eighteen | rears old. Mr. Gordon gave her into my tharge only yesterday afternoon, to take ler to lier friends in New London, but now (he has gone with mv children."

The boy got relieved from the deadly grasp and took to his heels, but the snake coiled around fie dog, and would have crushed him if he had not fought like a tiger. 8%-Mrs. Sour beck, of Bellefonte, formerly of this place, was severely burnt a few weeks ago bv the explosion of a fluid lamp.

THESE lands were granted by the Govern ment to aid iu the construction of this road, and are among the richest and most fertile in 1 the world. They extend from North East and ' North West, through the middle of the State, ; to the extreme South, and include every variety of climate and productions found between those parallels of latitude. The Northern portion is chiefly prairie, interspersed with fine groves, i and in the middle and Southern sections timber predominate, alternating with beautiful prai ries and openings. * ; The climate is more healthy, mild and equa | ble, than any other part of the country—the air 1 is pure and bracing, while living streams arm , springs of excellent water about d.

I The great fertility of these lands, which are j a black rich mould from two to five feet deep, i and gently rolling—their contiguity to this road, I by which every facility is furnished for travel i ami transportation, to the principal markets I North, South, East, West, and the economy with which they can be cultivated, render them j the most valuable investment that can be found, ■ and present the most favorable opportunity for I persons of industrious habits and small means j to acquire a comfortable independence in a few years. Chicago is now the greatest grain market in the world, and the facility and economy with which the pro-! is of these lands can be trans oorted to t! at market make them much more pi L ';•> ,at the prices asked, than those more remote at government rates, as the cost of transportation is a perpetual tax oil the latter, which must be borne by the producer in the re duced price he receives for his grain, <&o.
