Railroad Accident.
Another Frightful Railroad Accident—Fearful Col
lision upon the 'Worcester Railroad—Sixteen Lives
.Lost, and many Persona injured. 7 , • - - - -
,Pitovnitirca, Aug. 12.--An awful•accident oc:
coned this morning on the Worcester
The regular passenger train fiend Boston'r.ame
in collision with an excursion' train'iOrning down,
demolishing both engines and several of the cars,
and causing the death of no less than sixteen per
sons, Whit 4 many others were injnierl.
Amonetherdead is a riewibby belonging to the
train, named George Griffin.
Mr. Taft, President of the Worcester Railroad,
was on the train and was slightly injured.
The engineer, named Southwick, was badly hurt
by leaping from the engine.
The cause of the calamity was a difference of
two minutes in the watches of the conductors.
The scene is described as a most frightful one.
The accident occurred at about eight o'clock this
morning on the Providence and Worcester railroad.
A train from Whitinsville, conveying an excur
sion party to Providence, came in collision with
the regular passenger train that left Providence in
the morning for Worcester.
The engines, cars &c.; - were torn to atoms, and
from sixteen to twenty:Lparsorui were killed, while
a dozen others, it is feared; are mortally wounded.
The scene is represented as dreadful in the ex
treme. The extraction of the dead from the ruins
of the cars, the agony of the survivors on recogniz
ing the bodies of their friends, the sufferings of the
wouoded, all made up a terrible pidture.
Most of those killed were on the excursion train,
and belonged to Uxbridge and Whitinsville.
ANOTHER AccouaT.—Providence, Aug. 12.—The
collision occurred between the regular train, which
left this city at 7.40 A. M., and a train which start
ed from Uxbridge at 6.20 A. M. The latter train
consisted of eight first-class cars. It contained a
party on an excursion from Whitinsville, Provi
dence and Newport.
At the time of the collision both trains were go
ing at almost full speed, so that the effects of the
concussion were terrible.
Tne place where the accident occurred was about
five miles from this city, at the junction of the Bos
ton and Providence and Boston and Worcester rail
roads, near Valley Falls.
The first car in the excursion train was smashed
to nieces, the tender being driven right through it.
The second car was not much injured, but was
driven through into the third car about half its
length. The five rear cars were only partially
damaged.
In the first passenger car there were only twelve
or fifteen passenger's, three or four of whom were
killed outright, while nearly all the remainder were
more or less injured.
In the third car the effects of the collision were
frightful. Some of the passengers were killed in
stantly, while others received serious if not fatal
injuries.
One account states that fifteen passengers had
been taken out dead, and as many more, probably
were mortally wounded. Several of the wounded
had limbs brokers, and their 'bodies badly disfigu
red.
Among the killed is the fireman of Uxtidge train
lie leaves a wife and two children at that place.
The greater portion of the killed and wounded
resided at Uxbridge and' Whitinsville.
J. P. Butts, of Millville, and his grandson, a boy
ten years of age, was in the first car, and escaped
most miraculously. The car was totally demolish
ed, but he and the boy were thrown, in a most in
explicable manner, out the side of the car, ar.d
rolled down an embankment. Mr. Butts sustained
no injury, but the youth was severely cut in the
head. Another passenger in this car escaped in
the same way without injury.
Most if not all the other passengers in this car
were either killed or badly wounded.
A large number, who escaped more serious itju
ry, weee cut by splinters.
The train from Providence consisted of only two
cars, being first and second class, nearly all the
seats of which were broken up.
None of the passengers in this train were dan
gerously injured; although about half of them were
badly cut and bruised.
There were about fifty passengers in this train.
Among them was Mr. Southwich superintendent
of the road, whose head was badly cut.
The superintendent of the transportation d.epart
meet, also, Mr. Taber, the clerk of the road' and
Henry Cord, the conductor, all escaped uninjured.
The first assistance rendered to the sufferers was
by those who were oe board the 7. 30 A. M. train
for Boston from Providence, which lett the latter
place after the train which came in collision with
the Uxbridge train arrived at the junction, and a
bout five minutes alter the collision.
Rev. Mr. Penny; rector of Grace Church, Provi
dence, is among the killed. Also Mrs. Richmond,
wile of John Richmond, of Providence.
Those on board this train assisted in placing the
wounded in a car which was hot injured, and took
them back to Pawtucket to obtain medical assist
ance.
The accident was the result of carelessness on the
part of the conductor of the Uxbridge train, he be
ing behind time and hoping to make it up so as to
catch the steamboat.
The latest account is, that there are sixteen dead
and twenty five wounded, but it is impossible, as
yet, to state the exact number.
Some of the wounded are shockingly mutilated.
The citizi ns of this place are doing everything
in their power for the relief of the wounded.
THE YELLOW FEVER IN NEW OurEssig—Timm-
BEE iVloammEs—New. Orleans, Aug. 9.—The lev
er rages still in our desolated city with unabated
severity. The number of deaths during twenty
four hours ending at 6 A. M. to day, was one hun
dred and ninety-two, of which one hundred and six
ty four were of yellow fever.
New Orlecins, Aug. 10—The report of the Board
of Health for the twenty-four hours ending at 6 A.
M., today, exibits a total of two hundred and
twenty four deaths, of which one hundredand eighty
tour were of yellowdever:
The totat number of,deaths from Saturday last to
Wednesday, (four days,) was eight hundaed andfif
ty. three, of which seven hundred and six were of
yellow lever.
The distress and misery of the population are in-,
conceivable. Physicians, nurses, and all others are
worn out in attendance on the sick and dying. Aid
from the North will do much to relieve us, if it is
. promptly furnished.
New Orleans, Aug. 11.—The fever is progressing
more tearfully than ever. Many persons who bad
it before have been again attacked, showing that
no one, however thoroughly acclimoted; can be re
garded as sate from the frightful disease. Four
clerks in the dry goods store of C. A- Barrier, were
attacked, and all died the same day. There is no
prospect of any improvement in the health of the
place; on the contrary, as the epidemic strengthens
its foot-hold, tae panic spreads and the ravages of
the pestilence increase.
AN EXTRAORDINARY MAN.—David Wilson, an
old revolutionary soldier, a native of New Jersey,
died, after a short illness; in Dearborn County, In
diana, in August, 1853, aged One hundred and seven
years, two months and thirteen days. He had, at diff
erent periods of his life, five wives, and at the per.
iod of his death, was the father of forty-seven child
ren? While residing in Pennsylvania, near the old
Redstone Fort, his wife gave birth to five children
in eleven months ! This extraordinary.man, when
in his one hundred and fourth year, mowed one week
for Esq. Pendleton, f Hamilton county,Ohio, about
two miles from Cincinnati, during which he mowed
one acre per day of heavy.timothy grass. He was
about five feet six inches in height. • His frame was'
not supported by_.ribs,as the frames of ordinary
men are, but an apparently solid sheet of bone sup
plied their place. He could hold up his hands is a
vertical position, and receive a blow from the fist
of a powerfaman, on the lateral part of his body;
without inconvenience. He. served throughout the
entire revolution, under Gen. Washington, was en
gaged in most of the Indian wars since, and . was
the companion of Marion and Rodgers, and of many
distinguished early piongers of our Western and
Southern wilds. Our readers may rest assured that
this statement is correct, as we received it from Mr.
Alexander Wilson, of North Madison, who is the
forty-fifth Child of the subject of this paragraph:—

A DISAPPOINTED OFFICE SEEKER.--The junior
editor of toe Montgomery .(Ala.) "Advertiser" was
an applicant for office. His claims were rejected.
He writes an aaicle which breathes the right spirit.
The tollowing is his conclusion—the summing up
- Disappointment of office, in numerous cases, is
a blessing in disguise. Let us hope that it will
prove so to us. We have escaped the cares and
vexations of office. We shall escape the insinua
tions of those who taunt office holders with " fight
ing for the spoils of office." We shall shall escape
malignint criticisms. We shall escape that state
of solicitude which periodically is painfully exciting
Not only this, but in many cases we will select an
employment more pleasant, more congenial, and
pecuniarily more profitable. How many office.
holders will, in a year or less time, probably, my
friends, willingly excnange with you? They will
have discovered their mistake in accepting office—
their responsibilities gfeater—their comforts fewer,
and their compensation less than they had antici
pated, and inadequate to their support.
Let us disappoint the Whigs. They hope for
success in the approaching election, relying largely
upon the lukewarmness and hostility to the admin
istration of those whose applications for office have
been rejected. They have precedence for it in the
election of 1h49, alter the inauguration of General
Taylor, when the democrats achieved victo.
lies. Let us open our eyes to the impolicy of this
course so confidently expected by the Whigs, who
presume that our attachment to the democratic
party, is even weakened by failure to obtain the
places we sought.
We owe to our own manly principle, to our
party, and to the success of the present administra
tion in its earnest endeavors to advance our country
in a career of unrivalled greatness and glory. For
getting the disappointment that has overtaken us,
with good cheer, actuated by high principles and
patriotism, unaffected by tailiure to receive office,
let us go forward to fight with more zeal the bat
tle of democracy the coming summer anal tall."
DE.ISION IN A LIQUOR CASE.—Judge Manches
ter, of Providence (R. 1.) has given an important
decision in a liquor case, in which the witness who
swore to the sale testified that he purchased the li
quor for the purpose 01 having the delendant con
victed. Tne judge decided that upon the uncorro
borated testimony of a man who would go upon
the stand and swear exultingly that he had induced
the delendant to commit the crime for the purpose
of having an opportunity to swear against him—
that it took away the safeguard which the law
had thrown around the citizen for his protection,
and the security of a lair and impartial trial when
accused of crime. He adjudged the delendant no.t
guilty, and ordered him to be discharged, This de
cision is, we believe, without a precedent.
TROOPS ORDERED TO THE Rio GRANDS.—TwO
companies of troops from Fort Aams, and two from
Fort Hamilton, each seventy strong, have been or
dered to be ready to sail for the Rio Grande. Maj.
G. Porter, of the Fourth Artillery, is in command.
Major Dela&ld, of the Corps of Engineer, is also or
dereb to superintend the erection of field works on
the fron-ier. This movement-of troops is made to
'Lest the movement of the Mexican authorities, who
have thrown large bodies of men on the Rio Grand.
More troops from the ports on the Atlantic are
shortly to follow; probably 1,500 will be sent.
Paten Hoes.—The annexed article Irons the
Cincinnati Commercial is important only as the
starting point in the operations of the coming sea-
We understand a party in this city is commision
ed to contract fur some tour or five thousand hogs,
by a gentleman from Kentucky, for December de
livery, $4 per cwt. net: but this commission is bas
ed upon a contract, made last winter to deliver 18,
000 bogs this coming December to one of those
sanguine operators who figured here last winter: so
that the the price is no indication of the market.
From a letter From a dealer on the Wabash,
which was shown us this afternoon, we learn that
$2,50a53 are seriously talked of in that section as
the opening rates for hogs.
LONDON, July 30-12 M.
OPE DAY LamEa.—The Morning Post states that
on the 10th of August we shall know whether Eu
rope is to have peace or war, as the Russian answer
will arrive by that date. The proposal sent to St.
Petersburg by the four powers is of the nature of
an ultimatum, and the Post is confident it will be
finally adhered to. If a reply be refused, there can
be no doubt that the powers will proceed to action.
, Arty attempt at delay or evasion will be treated as
if Russia pointedly refused the proposal, or rather
the ultimatum. Moderation is carried to its ex
treme length, and patience could no longer endure.
Russia must accept the terms offered, or England
and France, in the event of her attempting procras
tination, must require the immediate evacuation of
the Principalities, and at once give bold counte
nance and active support to Turkey, by sending
their combined fleets to the Bosphorus, if not furth
er. The Poet, therefore, repeats that the Russian
answer will be decisive.

aug 2 6t-28] Paradise Lancaster co., Pa:
Prospectus of the " Washington
Sentinel." I propose to publish is the city of
Washington, in September, a political newspaper,
under the name of the WASHNOTON SENTINEL. In
doing so it is proper I should make known the
principles it will maintain and the policy it will ad
vocate.
It will support cordially and earnestly the prin
ciples of the Democratic Republican party of the
United States. It does not propose to be the organ
o any department of the Government, except in
so far as independent maintenance of the doctrines
of that party may represent its opinions and express
its views.
It Will not be ambitious to commend itself to the
people by a blind flattery of their rulers. It will
seek public support by the bold avowal of the sen
timents which are common to the'genuine Denioc
racy of the Union, and by the condemnation of all
such as. may conflict with them, from whatever
quarter they may come. It will seek to be (and
it will endeavor to deserVe the tide, the organ of
the Democratic Party of the United States.
The Sentinel will maintain a fundamental truth
of that great party, that the States formed the Uni
on between them by the ratification of the Consti
tution a 6 a compact, by which also they created the
Federal Government, and delegated to it, as their
common agent, the powers expressly specified in
it, with an explicit reservation of all others to the
States, or to their separate governments. The ex
ercise of any powers beyond those thus delegated
is, therefore, a usurpation of the reserved authority
of the States by the agent of their own creation.
The Sentinel will uphold and defend the Union
upon the basis of the rights of the States under the
Constitution; and thus by sedulously guarding the
latter, it will the more effectually strengthen and
perpetuate the former.
With regard to the exercise of the powers of the
Federal Government, the Sentinel will take as the
principles of its action that Congress shall exercise
no power which has not been delegated by the Con
stitution, according to a strict and fair interpreta
tion of its language and spirit; and that it shall not
seek to attain indirectly an object through the exer
cise of constitutional power, lbr the direct attain
ment of which it has no delegation of power. In
other words, all powers exercised must be clearly
granted, and all granted powers must be used for
no purpose except such as is clearly intended by
the Constitution.
In respect to the internal administration of the
Government the Sentinel will sustain the settled
policy of the Democratic Party. It will labor to I
inculcate the cardinal doctrine of Domocraticin
ternal policy; that this Government will best pro
mote the freedom and prosperity of the people of
the States by being less ambitious to exercise pow l ,
and more anxious to preserve liberty, and by leava',
ing to the individual States the management of all
their domestic concerns; while it contents itself
with guarding the Confederacy horn external vio
lence, and directing the foreign policy of the coun
try to the promotion of the common interests and
defence of the common rights and honor of the
States composing it.
The Sentinel will advocate such a progressive
foreign policy as will suit itself to the exigencies
and correspond with the expanding interests of the
country. £liat•policy should be energetic and de
cided; hut should temper firmness with liberality,
and make its highest ends consist with the strictest
principles of justice. The real interests of the
country, upon each occasion demanding attention,
Will be its guide in the course the Sentinel will
pursue.
.The national policy of the world in this age is
essentially aggressive. In the growing sense of
weakness of some of the nations of the Old World,
and the ambitious restlessness of others, a com
mon motive to colonial extension has developed
itself.
Our settled determination to repel interference
from abroad with our own domestic concerns will
prodipt us to avoid it in the affairs of other coun
tries, unless, by their foreign or colonial policy,
our peace should be threatened, our security en
dangered, or our interests invaded. For when the
selfish interests of other nations prompt a foreign or
colonial policy, which infringes upon our right s
and places in the pathway of our commerce a dan
gerous and unfriendly rival, such a policy must be
resisted by remonstrance, and, if need be, by war.
Our foreign policy should, indeed, be defensive;
but to be properly defensive, it must sometimes be
apparently aggrefsive. Our Administration should
he vigilant, watchful, and energetic. The world is
full of important movements, commercial and po
litical, deeply concerning American trade and
American power. It is time we had-an American
foreign policy. We must have it. We cannot avoid
it if we would. We have larger interests, and a
greater stake in the world and its destiny, than ev
ery other people. We occupy the best portion of
a continent, with no neighbors but a colony, and
a worn out, anarchial despotism. We are the only
people whose own Lind, without colonial depen
dencies, itl.washed by the two great oceans of the
world. Our agricultural prodinctions are more va
ried and more essential to civilized life and to hu
man progress, our mineral and manufacturing re
sources more vast, our facilities and capacity for
internal and foreign commerce more extended, than
those of any other people living under ono govern
ment. A continent, to a great extent unexplored
and exhaustless in its yet hidden wealth, is at our
feet. 'European trade seeks the great East through
avenues which are at our doors, or must be made
through our own limits. Europe, Asia, Africa and
the Isles of the sea, lying all around us, look to us
as the rising Power through the agency of whose
oxample and ever widening and extending though
peaceful influences the blessings of liberty, civili
zation, and religion : are destined to triumph over
barbarism and superstition of the millions of the
world. And shall such a people refuse to lay hold
upon their destiny and act upon the high mission
to which it is called—a mission• so full of hope,
though so laden with responsibility, which, it prop
erly directed, must make our confederacy the har
binger of peace to the world as well as the peace
ful arbiter of its destiny?
The Sentinel will therefore advocate a bold and
earnest foreignpoliey, such as the condition of the
country demands; but it will advocate it under the
flag of the country, nowhere else. Its foreign pol
icy must be consistent with the spotless honor and
unimpeachable good faith of the Country. To be
respectable at home and abroad, and to be great in
the eyes of the world, it must ask for nothing but
what is right, and to submit to nothing that is
wrong. It must be liberal and magnanimous to the
rights of others, and firm and immoveable in insist
ing on its own. It must in line, be true to its own
interest, rights, and honor; it cannot then be false
to those of other nations.
Such, then, is the chart by which we shall be
guided. Independant and free, we shall endeavor
go be honest and truthful. The true friends of
tDemocratic principles, we shall cordially support
and defend. Its enemies in thefields or in ambush
we shall oppose and on all proper occasions de
nounce.
To our future brethren of the press we extend
the hand of friendly greeting. The Sentinel is the
rival of no press of its own party, the personal en
emy of none of the other.
The present Democratic Administration has our
beet wishes for its success in the establishment of
the great principles upon whiCh it came into pow
er; and in its honest tabors to attain such an end
t will find the Sentinel its friend and coadjutor.

CONSUMPTION.
To cure a cold, wi th Headache
• and soreness of the body, take the Cherry
Pectoral on going to bed, anti wraplup warm, to
sweat during the night.
Fer a- cold and cough, take it morning, noon, and
evening, according to directions on the bottle, and
the difficulty will anon be removed. None will long
suffer from this trouble when they find it can be so
readily cured. Persons afflicted with a seated f
cough, which breaks them of their rest at night,
will find, by taking the Cherry Pectoral on going to
bed, they may be sure of Bound, unbroken sleep,
'and consequently refreshing rest. Great relief - from
suffering, and an ultimate cure, is afforded to thous
ands who are thus afflicted, by this invaluable rem
edy.
From its agreeable effect in these cases, many find
themselves unwilling to forego its use .when the
necessity for it ceased.
From two eminent Pyhysicians in
FAYETTEVILLE, TENN., April 16th, 1861.
Sir :—We have given your Cherry Pectoral Lo
extensive trial in our practice, and find it to surpass
every other remedy we have liar caring affections of
the respiratory organs.
DRS. DIEMER & HAMPTON.
To singers and public speakers this remedy is
invaluable, as by its action on the throat and lungs,
when taken in small quantities, it removes . al
hoarseness in a few hours, and wondorfully in
creases the power and flexibility of the ffflice.
Asthma is generally much relieved, and often
wholly cured by Cherry Pectoral. But there are
some cases so obstinate as to yield entirely to no
medicine. Cherry Pectoral will cure them, if they
can be cured.
Bronchitis, or irritation of the throat and upper
portion of the lungs, my be cured by taking Cherry
Pectoral in small and frequent doses. The uncom
fortable oppression is soon relieved.
Rev. Dr. LANSING, of BROOKLYN, NEW Year.,
states I have seen the Cherry Pectoral cure
such cases of Asthma and Brnochitis as leads me
to beiieved it can rarely tail to cure those diseases: ,
For Croup. Give an emetic of antimony, to be
followed by large and frequent doses of the Cherry
Pectoral, until it subdues the disease. If taken In -
season, it will not fail to cure.
Whooping cough may ,be broken up and soon
cured by the use of Cherry Pectoral.
The influenza is speedily removed by this rem
edy. Numerous instances have been noticed where
whole families were protected from any serious
consequences, while their neighbors, without the
Cherry Pectoral, were suffering from the disease.
SALEM, Ohio, June Ilth, 1+551.
Dr. J. C. Ayer write to inform you of the
truly remarkable effects of your Cherry Pectoral in
this place, and in my own family. One of my
daughters was completely cured in three days of a
dreadful Whooping Cough, by taking it. Dr.
Means, one of our very best physicians freely states
that he considers it the best remedy we have for
pulmonary diseases, and that he has cured more
cases of Croup with it than any other medicine he
ever administered.
Our clergyman of the Baptist Church says that
during the run of Influenza here this seasons, he
has seen cures from your medicine he could
scarcely have believed without seeing.
Yours respectfully, J. D. SINCLAIR, -
Deputy Postmaster,
From the distinguished Professor of Chemistry
and Ai ateria Medics, Bowdoin College. I have.
found the Cherry Pectoral, as its ingredients show,
a powerful remedy for colds, and coughs, and pul
monary diseases.
DARKER CLEVELAND, M. D.
BRUNSWICK, Me., Feb. 5, 1847.
Dr. VALENTINE Morr, the widely celebrated
Professor of Surgery in the Medical College, New
York City, says:—" It gives me pleasure to cer
tify the value and efficacy of ' Ayre's Cherry Pec
toral,' which I consider peculiarly adapted to cure
diseases of the Throat and Lungs."
Cures of severe diseases upon the Lungs have
been effected by Cherry Pectoral in such extreme
case as warrant the belief that a remedy has at
length been !build that can be depended on to cure
the Coughs, Colds and Consumptions which carry
from our midst thousands every year. It is indeed
a medicine to which the afflicted can look with
confidence for relief, and they should not fail to
avail themselves of it.
