MONDAY EVENING, IfABCH 28, 1881. INTO AN ABYSS. A Locomotive unit Tender Gi Tiiruugli a Bridge nod Cruuli a Ueat. Thrilling Leaps for Lite. Philadelpliia Timed. The breadth of a hair Satui day morning was all that steed between a traiu-lead of people and what would have been one of the most frightful disasters that has oc ec cui red since the jt eat Tay bridge horror in Scotland, nearly two year a,fe. A mh g!e half feet of a yardstick further and the 125 people would have been lnnled. te a sudden, horrible and appalling death. The Southern mail train from Bosten te Xew Orleans, known as the fait line, which left Philadelphia at 0:53 and con sisted of two passenger cars, both of which were leaded with passengers, . and a baggage and a mail car, was a little be hind time. The usual running schedule between Philadelphia and Wilmington is 53 minutes, being due at the latter place at 7:50. The engineer, an old and tried empleye of the read, wishing te make up for lest tunc, was running the train at the rate of about foity-five miles an hour. Theio was a pictty heavy fall of snow at that hour and lights along the track weie in many iustaneu entirely obscured. Everybody who bus traveled ever the Philadelphia, Wilmington & Baltimore read will i ecellect that at a point a little north of Wilmington is Brandy wine creek, which is in reality a small, deep river, be ing 800 feet wide and fiem twenty te thirty feet deep. It is navigable for beats as far up as Zdarket street, at the northwest end of Wilmington. The railroad ever the stream has two spans and a drawbridge in the middle for the passage of beats. Be tween the traffic of tha hilts and the traffic of the can; there i.s a constant ne- e-ssity for some one te be present at all times, net only te work the draw, but te adjust ths signals, which are arranged at intervals for neatly half a mile up the track, and which tell the engineer of a train when the bridge is open and when it is closed, the former being indicated by a red light and the latter by a white liaht. The drawbridge itself is about seventy-. live feet long, and when open leaves a gap about iilteen feet greater than the length of a car. On this occasion the bridge tender, James .Tohntei, of 700 Buttonwood street, Wilmington, luid thrown open the bi idgc te let through a caualbeat in tow of the tug Falcon, Cap tain Ileacoek, of Wilmington, in charge. The canal beat, Geerge W. Pugli, which is owned-in Philadelphia, was leaded with bleaching powder for the Jessup & Moere paper company and was en its way te (he upper Wilm'ngten wharf. On beard this beat weie two peisens. Captain Duncan and his "wife. The former was at the helm ; his wife was down in the cabin getting bieakfast, and this cabin, which is in the front of the beat, had just passed the centre of the drawbridge and the beat was just half way through. Meantime the train, with its living 1 1 eight, came thundering en. The morn ing being cloudy, as stated, and the snow tailing thick, the red signal light had es caped the engineer's eye. Reth Hemphill and his tiieman. Edgar A. Cornelius, weie unconscious et danger until within forty feet of the bridge. Then, like an electric dieek, the last red light this side of the bridge caught the engineer's eye and told that the biidgc was open. Action was net less quick than in-itinct. Upen the instant the engine serf anted down biakcs. The automatic brakes worked like magic. The train slacked instantly, but the mo mentum of its speed was tee great te save all. The engineer and firemen held en with a grip of iron until the quivering, groaning, creaking iron, as though iinpa tiert of all restraint, made its plunge into the fatal gap. In the same instant the engineer and fireman had .punned, tee. en cither side of the track. They lauded en the wooden cress-beams of the bridge and, miraculous as it may seem, were saved. The engine, the moment it sprang into the gap, broke loose from the tender and went down with an awful crash en the top of the canal beat, staking it faiily in the middle. The captain's wife, who, as stated, was in the cabiu making breakfast, felt herself violently thrown en the fleer,.while the beat was thrown en its side and lifted almost out en the shore by the shock. The next moment the woman was seen limp ing up the side of the beat, and was speed ily icscucd by her husband, who had jumped ashore when the crash came. This was most lucky, for the next instant the tcudcr came, tee, and striking the water right where the beat had been sank out of sight. The locomotive lay en its side, also resting en the edge of the beat, with both smoke stack and pilot house gene. The excitement in Wilmington ten min utes later, when all sorts of rumors spread about, was tremendous. Hundreds of people fiecked te the scene. They found, what seems almost incredible, that no body had been injuied save the engineer and fireman, whose worst hurts were only ilcsh bruises. DepotmasterGekin and his assistant, Mr. Brieon, of Wilmington, at euce repaired te the scene, and after abeht thirty minutes' delay engine Ne. 74, in charge of another engineer and fireman, having been sent up te take the place of the wrecked one, the train resumed its journey. Net one of the passengers was aware of their narrow escape until all was ever. It seems from ali inquiry te have been one of these accidents in which blame can be attached te nobody, the thick snow blinding the eyes of the engineer te the signals completely. A Queer Customer. H. J. B. in Philadelphia Times. General Merritt, the present collector, is a mystery te every one who tries ti study politicians. He is a very commonplace man. He can neither speak nor write and is without following and without magnetism. He is a great, overgrown man, with a feet like a canal beat and a hand like a wind mill. He docs net dtess like a gentleman and has the manners of a farmer. lie is net able in council or in -the field and he is indeed commonplace in every respect. His prominence is simply due te that strange species of luck that we sometimes see, He is net positive in anything and is tee insignifi cant te excite much enmity. He has never been useful in a party sense and his geed fortune is simply bull-headed luck. He will, as consul general te Londen, create a great furore in court circles. I have an idea that even the queen will dispense with her old Scotch attendant, Jehn Brown, in order te have Merritt near her. Mrs. Langtry, Mrs. Cornwallis AVcst, Mrs. Wheeler, Lady Florence Dixie, Mrs. Plow Plew den and the Princess of Wales will go stark mad in admiration of Merritt. It is said te-day that Conkling will try te de feat Robertsen's confirmation, but he will hardly be se foolish as that, for he is sure te be confirmed, and the opposition of Conkling would hurt him very much and be very unpopular in Xew Yerk, ler all through the state Robertsen is held in the highest esteem. KAKLY METHODIST COXFEKKNCEs. By Kev. Gee. TV. JLybrand. Mr. Wesley's first conference of preach ers was held in Londen in 1744. Ten preachers were present, six of them min isters of the church of England, including the two Wesleys, Jehn and Charles, with four lay ministers. The first annnal conference in this country was held in the St. Geerge's church, Philadelphia, July 14 and 16, 1773. The church in which they met was commenced by the Dutch Reformed church in 1763, but they were net able te cemplete it. It was purchased by the Methodists in 1760. The original church still stands, and is the only original church among the Methodists in Europe aud America that still stands. We have n account of this first conference in As bury's Journal. He calls it a " General Conference." It embraces the entire work in America : Methodism had been intro duced in Philadelphia, New Yerk city and parts of New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia and North Careliua. Richard Beard man and Jeseph Pilmore were Mr. Wesley's first missionaries te America. They were abundant in labors, but were net sufiic'eutly itinerating, and Themas Rankin and Francis Asbury set them an example. Themas Rankin has left a record of this meeting, from which I quoted ; " Wednesday, Thursday aud Friday we had our Hist little conference, There weie present seven preachers, be sides Brethers Beard man and Pilmore, who were te return te England. The number of all the members in the different societies did net exceed 1,160. Frem the wonderful accounts I had heard in England, and during our passage, I was led te think there must be some thousands awakened and joined as mcmber.- of our societies ; "bat I was new convinced of the real truth. Seme of the above number, I also found afterward, were net closely united te us. Indeed our discipline was net properly at tended te, except at Philadelphia and New Yerk, and even in these places it was upon the decline. Nevei theless, from the accounts i heard, thcie was a real feunda tien laid of doing much geed, and we hoped te sec greater things than these. Tite preachers were stationed in the best manner we could, and we pat ted in love, and also with a full Resolution te spread genuine Methodism in public and private, with all our might. It was thought proper that I should spend a little meic time at New Yerk, and Brether Shadford at Phil adelphia." Nine preachers were in at tendence including Beardman.iud Pilmore The nine pieaeUers most likely were Themas Rankin, Francis Asbury Rich ard Wiight, Geerge- Shadford, Themas Webb, Jehn King, Jeseph Ycarbry, Rankin spells it Yea bury, all Europeans. Mr. Rankin, in vittue of his ellicc. being Mr. Wealey's assistant, presided. At this cnufeicnce there was, for the first time, a return made el the members a- fellows : NewYeik, ISO ; Philadelphia, ISO ; New Jersey, 200 ; -Maryland, 500 ; Virginia. 100. The whole number was 1,160. Pieachcrs, 10, stationed as fellows : New Yerk, Themas Rankin, te change in four months; Philadelphia, Geergo Shadfeid, te change in four ments ; New Jersey, Jehn King, William Waiters ; Baltimeic, Francis Asbuiy, Rebert Strawbridge, Abraham Whitweiih. Jeseph Yearbry ; Norfolk, Richard Wright ; Petersburg, Rebert Williams. Second conference held in Philadelphia from May 23 te 27, 1774. Third conference held in Philadelphia from May 17 te 19, 1773. At these conferences Themas Rankin pi elided. Ne conference held in Philadelphia till Sept. 22 te 26, 17SS, Bishop Asbury pre sided. The earliest journal in our possession dates from 1800. It gives the proceedings of the conference 'held at Smytad, Dela ware, from June 2 till tha 0th. 1800. Wil liam Pcnn Chandler the fir.st secretary. The secretaries front that day till this, have been W. S. Fisher, Jehn Eniery, (afterwards bishop) Rebert Burch, S. J. Cox, L. Lawienseu, S. Higgir.s, S. Dough ty, G. G. Ceekman, W. A. AViggcus. D. D. Lere, P. Coombs, R II. Pattiseu, W. J. Paxson, Jehn S. Janes, Nic. Cennell, ex-Secretaries, P. Coerabe aud W. F. Pax son. The piesent secretary, Jehn S. J. McConnell, is the peer se fur as we knew of the best. Twe or the bishop? that have presided at pi eceding sessions of the con cen feience have spoken in the highest ierms of his fitness for the position, and his elfi elfi eieucy. He is practical, piempt, catcful, patent aud paiticular, geed qualification. In addition has admiiable tack aud skill in atranging his work. We place him at the head of the corps of secretaries. ltr.Mulaltd fur Fifteen Miles. Very Many Lives Italleveil te Have ISecu Jj-.t in Nebraska. Floods. Fer several days past an ice gorge has been forming iu the Platte liver, near North Bend, a town en the lincef the Union Pacific railroad in Dedge county. On Friday the waters suddenly rose above the banks and swept the line of the rail road for a mile and a half. The water rose several feet in North Rend, and the fricht- ened people took refuge in the railroad depot, which is en high ground, remain ing there all night. The water has been slowly rising, cut ting off the people of the place from all communication. The whole valley of the Loup is flooded. It is a rich coun try, with about five thousand inhabit ants, and se rapid and widespread bas been the ii.se of the waters that it is fear e I that there has been a great less of life. A large quantity of broken ice is pouring out of the Loup liver, and iscariicd by the Heeds ever the country, mewing down tcl Oiiaph poles and destroying property. The west-bound train of the Union Pa cilc read was obligciUe turn back at Free man, but the fast-bound train get through. The railroad company has large gangs of men at work endeaveiing te save its bridges. The latest repot Is aie that the country is under water for ever fifteen miles, and rumors of great less of life are in circula circula latteu. It is said that people have been drowned by the score. It is impossible te get particulars, owing te the stoppage of all communication with the inundated ro re ro gieu. There is talk of sending out a re lief expedition, but uenc has yet been des patched. The3Iisseuri is rising very lapidly, and the waters are threatening the workshops of the Pacific railroad. A Tramp's Fortune. Kunnln? Through His Suddenly-Acquired Wealth. Wiliiam Giessman was a German tramp five years age. He located in the ere fields in the western part of Lehigh county, fell in love and married a young girl, with whom he lived a few years and then sud denly disappeared. Last July he reap peared equally as suddenly and with piles of money. He had inherited $20,000 irem a deceased relative, he said. His wife, ip the meantime, had taken another hus band, but husband Ne. 2 w.ts readily re leased when Ne 1 came with his show of wealth. Gressman bought a fine house, clothed his wife in elegant apparel, bought her jewelry, bought fine furniture, horses, carriages, sleighs and fancy stock and lived like a king. His 926,000 lasted him just seven months and was spent in the most lavish manner. The last prop erty he had, some twelve seres of Iand,has just been sold by the sheriff. Hard Times During the Kevelntien. The following is a copy of a letter writ ten by Cel. Williem Gibbens, who owned one of the ferries at Paxtang, and pur chased supplies for the army during the darkest hours of the Revolutienay war. He came from Nantmcal township, Ches ter county, where he owned large tracts of land. His residence at Paxtang may have been only a temporary one : Paxtasg, March 9, 1779.

Saw Yerk un. On Sunday Venus attained her greatest , brilliancy. Fer a week or two she has glowed in the evening sky with a light! brilliant enough te cast a shadow. A t geed eye can new detect the planet at ' noonday. Its beauty as a telescopic ob- je"t increases daily, as the cresent that it I presents grows larger and narrower, it is related that Theodere Parker, when a boy, perceived the crescent shape of Ven us without a telescope iu the pure air of Xw England. Other instances arc kpewu of the crescent having been seen with the unassisted eye, but they are as rare as the cases iu which Jupiter's moons have been perceived without optical aid. Mere than 100 years age the Rev. Dr. Miles, an Englishman, had such a view of Venus as no ether astronomer has ever been fertu- ,nate enough te obtain. While viewing the planet with a telescope of moderate power, a red curtain of aureral light spread upward from the north aud covered the field of view. The effect was magical. The disk of the plant, which almost defies the scrutiny of the finest telescopes en ac count of its dazzling brilliancy, shone for a little time with a mild and steady light, which revealed the outlines of mountain ous regions and plains or oceans that ordi narily arc seen en-y by glimpses and indis tinctly through the glare of the planet's atmosphere, Abtiouemers will, no doubt, improve this eppsrtunity te leek for the supposi titious moon of Venus. Most2astrenomcrs class Vcnus's moon with the mythical little moon that some have supposed te be revolving about the earth only some four thousand or live thousand miles distant, but which is se small and se swift in its motion that we cannot see it. Seme as tronomers, however, maintain that Venus has a moon, and an American observer a few years age stoutly asserted that he had had a geed view of it.! Stirring Incident in Detroit. Mile. Bernhardt and Fauny Davenport played ' Camille " at the same time iu Detroit at different theatres, and while the French artiste was duly appreciated, the American actress was forced te give an extra matinee te satisfy the demands of the public. It was thought that Bern haidt would attend this matinee, conse quently the theatre was literally packed ; but the French artiste remained away. Mr. Abbey said she did net receive a pe cial invitation. In the evening Miss Dav enport was serenaded at the Russell house, where Bernhardt was also stepping. The band played the " Secret Leve Galep " and the " Star Spangled Banner." Miss D. appeared at the window and kept time te the music with ber hands while the lat air was being played. The compliment was quite overpowering, and she could only say te the large crowd beneath the win dow : " Thanks, my friends a thousand thanks ; I cannot say mere my Heart is tee full." The crowd cheered and the band played " Yankee Deedle." Miss Davenport again appeared at the window and said : " 3Iy friends, de net forget our neighbor a stranger. Play the 3Iar sellaise' for her." Which the band -did. Waving the banner which had been pre sented te her the previous evdning, en which was inscribed, " Come again," she disappeared amid the cheers of the crowd.
