The Mercantile Beneficial Associa tion gives notice in our advertising col- Timns in reference to application for mem bership. Mr. W. A. RoliD, the Secretary, will receive applications at 739 Market street Message of the Governor of Virginia. Richmond, Va., Dec. 4.—Gov. Peirpont’s message shows the public debt of Virginia, with the interest funded, to be over $43,000,- 000. . There are 136 regiments of militia of the line, of which number 107 have been or ganized. The remaining 27 regiments are in process of organization. He recommends an amendment to the law so as to direct the further stay of execu tions, upon the payment by the debtor of the interest and twenty-five per cent of the pnnoipal, within ninety days from the Ist ■of January, 1868,' at which time the present stay law expires, and a like sum, with the interest, each ensuing year. He says the subject of labor is attracting .great attention in that State. The people must first depend upon the native labor now m the commonwealth, white and colored This is to be encouraged by the repeal of •oppressive laws. By the encouragement of -common schools, and by fair wages and good treatment, the negro ought to have a fair chance, find he should be tried hope fully. The next hope for labor, he says is from foreign countries. ’ The Governor discusses the Constitutional •amendment, remarking that the people of the South ought not again to be beguiled by the promises of professed allies and friends •at the North, The Congressional party is composed of a largeclass, the equals in wealth and intelli gence oftbe leaders of the party of the Presi- Et - ft embraces the flower and strength or both the old political parties in the North ern States, brought together by the late war, and now held together by a common senti ment and sympathy. It will become stronger lor many years to come. This may be termed the dominant party,led by the ardent find cultivated intellects now represented in •Congress. The Governor says: “The practical question for your conside ration now is, .whether, by the rejection of tbe proposed constitutional amendment,you are likely to place tbe people of our State in a better.condition. If the views I have pre sented be correct, there is no hoph of better terms. It is urged that it would be dishon orable to accept the terms offered iu the amendment. $ think the objection .is,not. substantial. There was no political power acquired by the surrenderor the confederate armies. The terms were as to the soldier,; the surrender of his arms, giving his parole that he would go to his home and remain there peaceablytmtil exchanged as a pris oner, of war, or released from his parole. The officers had more liberalterms granted ; them; but these terms only such as applied to; a prisoner in a military point of view. This position is fully confirmed by. the fact that after one of the Federal commanders had attempted to give a political status to a ! large division of the insurgent army, the • political feature of the treaty was ordered to be stricken out by the Government at -Washington.” In another place he says: . "Tie people of these States, as a conquered 1 nation or as individuals who have forfeited their political rights by the rebellion, are still under the ban of the government, or in the power of the conqueror. In the case of nations at war, the conqueror dictates the terms of peace; in the case of subjeots eh gaged m rebellion, When the rebellion is subdued, the government enforces or miti gates the penalty. The terms of the con queror in this case, or the penalties fixed by the government, are embadied in the pro posed amendment In a review of the case, there can be no disgrace incurred by the acceptance of the terms proposed, because they_ are-proposed by a powerful govern ment of the people to States disarmed and unable resist its authority. disqualifications proposed practi cally do not go to the army that surrendered at Appomatox Court House, I suppose not five per cent, of the individuals who com posed that army will be affected by the pro posed constitutional amendment.. There was perhaps, more able-bodied Virginians in the State who were detailed or exempted in:one way or another from military ser vice than were bearing arms on that -day. The disqualifications will fall chieflyon this class. They onght not to complain, beoause did not expose their persons in the strife to secure victory in a war they so largely contributed to inaugurate. There were few at Appomattox who had been ac tive in bringing on the war. The Ballroad Aceldent In Ohio. - 5,603 00 Ij4oo 00 1,400 00 2,400 00 - 1,000 00 Zanesville, Ohio, Dec. 4.— -By the acci dent near this place at nine o’clock this morning, ten persons were more or less se riously injured, and one killed. The westward bound passenger train had but a few minutes before passed safely oyer the bridge. Two engines followed the train over to the west Bide of the river, arid stopped at the west end of the bridge, the "Elias Fassett” standing on the west pier with her tender on the first span. The yard engine “Antelope” with one car attached, was standing about one-third of the dis tance on the same span, between the first and second piers, awaiting the nine o’clock east bound passenger train to pass, the bridge haying a double track. The engine of the passenger train going east stopped at the wood station, about one hundred yards west of the bridge, took on wood and water, and then passed on to the iron bridge, having a train of four passen ger cars, one baggage and one express car. The last three passenger cars of the train were crowded with people, the front one contained but about a dozen, and was used as a smoking car. The train had passed the middle of the first span of the structure when it gave way, precipitating the engine tender baggage and express cars into the river, with the front end hanging on the pier; also, the yard engine, tender and one car, find the tender of the engine “Elias Fassett,” the engine itself remaining on the pier. • The following is a list of the passengers iDjured— Jesse Hill, Pleasant Valley, Ohio, skull fractured, died at 2 P. M.; James Harland, Gain’s Station, Mich., slightly wounded in ihe head and ankle; Levi Claypool, Nash port, severely wounded in left ankle; Mr. Hart, New Jersey, slightly injared. Em ployes injured—Thomas Mill worth, express messenger, arm seriously hurt! Thomas Wing, conductor, severely injured in the neck; Van. B. Shipley, engineer, bruised in bead; Silas Higgs, fireman, leg broken, Geo. Thompson, fireman; slightly wounded- Robert Milton, colored porter, legs injured. The cool self-possession of the engineer of the passenger train, Patrick H. Smith, is worthy of all praise. From the time he felt the bridge giving way until his engine was in the water, he sounded his whistle for “downbrakes,’’and the order being obeyed checked the momentum of the train and doubtless prevented the other cars, filled with passengers from going into the river. The break will be repaired by trestling within three days. The immediate cause of the accident was the increased weight upon the bridge. It was constructed upon the principles of Bat man’s patent, and should have sustained ten times the weight which crushed it this morning. Cincinnati, December 4th.—Considering that the five carsof the Central Ohio passen ger train which met with the disaster to-day were filled with people, principally des tined for Zanesville, where the State Pomo 'ogical Society held a fair to-day, Jit is miracu lous that Jesse Hill, of Pleasant Valley, Ohio, was the only passenger killed. - Only two or three passengers were hurt, but all the employes suffered more or less. The bridge was one of Bolman’s patent, and was the first iron railroad bridge erected in the State, and has been heretofore considered perfectly safe. Travel by that route will not be interrupted. London, December 4th, Evening.—The Morning Herald declares that the rnmors that have been circulated'* of dissensions in the British Cabinet, and of the probable retirement of Disraeli, are without founda tion. The same paper announces that the Royal Commission upon the neutrality laws has been formed, and consists of thirteen mem bers,the mosteminentof whom have already been announced. Berlin, December 4fch, All the ques tions and differences between Prussia and Saxony have at length been adjusted. Paris, December 4th.—Mr.Blgelow, Min ister of the United States, to-day received from the deputation appointed for that pur pose, a gold medal and letter for Mrs. Lin coln, presented by the people of France, in honor of the virtues and memory of Abra ham Lincoln. Stockholm, Dec. 4.— lt is said that the Government has taken into serious con sideration the plans of naval and harbor defence, which have lately been suggested by Captain Ericsson, the famons inventor.
