Stupclng In the M'est.
The San Joaquin (Cal.) Rtrputilicun of
January !2.sd gives the lollowing :
The stage running between this cily
and Murphy's was robbed again this
morning, and Well, Fargo & Co.'a ex
press box captured. Tho account as re
ceived from tho driver, 15illy Cutter, is
about as follows: He lei't San Andreas
about 15 minutes before 5 a'eloek this
morning, and had proceeded about one
inilo in tho direction of Stockton, when
he was hailed by a man on tho side of
tho lull, who said ho wished to get on
tho stage. JJilly pulled up and tho fel
low came down and commenced unbut
toning the curtains of tho stage.
" As soon as ho could look inside lie
remarked that ho would have tho stage
all to himself, as there were uo passen
gers, to which tho driver said yes, he was
lucky in that respect. Just then tho
team started up, and nonio ouo said, " I
wouldn't go yet." Looking around liilly
saw a man on each side of him with a
shot-gun presented at his head. They
ordered him to pass out tho express box,
and told him to wait a few minutes nnd
they would hand it back to him. One
of tho robbers thou commenced pound
ing tho box with n hatchet, remarking
that it appeared very solid, to which Hil
ly answered that the company made them
strong to keep such fellows out of them.
Ouo of tho party asked Hilly if ho
had any money ; ho said yes, ho had 8!J;j0
or $550, ho could not toll tho amount.
Robber said ho must shell out, which ho
did, and found tho sum to ho $550. Ho
told Uilly to take off his boots, as ono of
his fellows was almost barefooted. JJilly
explained that it was rather rough to
leave a man there in tho rain without
boots, nnd tho brako to manage. Tho
robber said ho would givo him tho fel
low's old ones, which liilly refused to put
on, until induced to do so through the
persuasion of the shot-gun. Meant imo
tho bare-footed boy tried to get lJilly's
boots on, but could, nnd they were givon
back to him. They demanded his watch,
but, on his explaining that it was a pres
ent from his mother, they said: "Well,
you aro a pretty good fellow, and out of
respect to your mother you may keep tho
watch."
"While this part of tho play was going
mi, tho other man had been pounding at
tho express box with tho hatchet, and
finding he could not open it, ho told liilly
he had concluded to keep tho box, and
ho might drivo on. Tho driver does uot
know tho valuo of tho contents of the
box."

Tho legislature.
Several bills of general interest have
been introduced in tho Legislature
Among them aro tho following :
Mr. Warner read a bill providing for
compulsory education of all children of
sound mental and physical health, be
tween tho ages of C and 11 years, in this
commonwealth.
It makes it unlawful for parents or
others in chargo of children between tho
above ages, and sound in body and mind

or other sources of regular and and com
petent education. Violation of tho act
will bo a misdemeanor, punishable with a
Cno of $1 for each child, and imprison
ment for one day for each day the child
is so absent. I'ersous aiding or abetting
such absence, when unknown to the pa
rent or guardian, aro liable to the same
penalties. School boards aro required to
furnish necessary books and appliances
gratuitously to children whoso parents
aro pecuniarily unablo to supply them ;
and the money received from tines under
this act shall go to tho treasury of tho
board, and bo applied as other school
moneys. All children aro required to at
tend school at least three months in the
year.
A TorrlMo Railroad Accident.
A terrible accident occurred near New
Hamburg, on tho Hudson 1'iver llailrnad,
on Wednesday night last. The first no
counts received report that an oil train
hound north caught fire near (he bridge,
at that place at a Into hour.
Tho express train came along and ran
into tho oil train, catching fire also. The
oil train set fire to tho bridge, and com
bined weight of the two trains' broke the
bridge in two, and tho cars fell through
in a mass of wreck and conlu-iuit. .Sev
eral persons, unablo to got out of the
cars when the crash occurred, were burn
ed (o death or drowned.
The engineer, conductor and brake
man of the express (rain aro known to
be killed. Tho scene at the track was
fearful. Three sleeping ears are among
those destroyed. .Eighteen persons are
known to have been killed out right, and
many more are injured. Later despatch
es say that the oil traiu was bound south,
and when passing New Hamburg an axle
of the oil car brolio and dragged along
the ground till it reached the drawbridge,
when, striking tho timbers, it threw the
ear off its track and upon the up-traek
in lace of the second Pacific express. An
attempt was made to stop the express
train, hut not in time enough, ami it
struck tho oil car, and fragment of tho
011 car were scattered in every direction,
and at once ignited, enveloping the entire
express train in flames.
Tho express train was composed of a
locomotive and ono baggage car, one ex
press car, and live or six sleeping cars.
Tho locomotive was at unco hurled into
the river and the engineer killed, and the
baggage and express cars were piled on
top of the engine. At tho samo time
tho Chicago sleeping car was ono sheet of
flame, and though desperate, attempts
wero made to rescue tho passengers, it is
said not ono got out alive. Two of the
other sleeping cars next to it wero also
wrapped in (lames, but tho passengers in
them all got out fcafcly, uud theu the
bridgo took fire. In less than ten min
utes afterwards tho whole structure fell,
carrying with it the Chicago car, and
burying it and iU inmates out of sight
under tho water, and among tho ruins of
tho locomotivo and express cars.
As soon as tho intelligence of tho dis
aster reached New Hamburg, two fire
engines wero hastened to tho sceue, and
by their aid the flames were soon sub
dued, nnd search was begun for tho bod
ies of the inmates of the Ihiffalo car.
Horrible, indeed, was tho spectacle as
ono after another of tho charred and
mangled bodies wero brought forth. 15y
12 o'clock all the bodies had been found
except that of Simmons, tho engineer.
They wero placed in a bnggago car, and
a firo was built to thaw tho frozen cloth
ing. It was almost impossible to identi
fy them, as in many cases tho faces were
so burned that scarcely a feature remain
ed. Tho conductor of tho sleeping car could
only bo identified by tho diagram con
tainingthe names of the passengers. When
among the rest, tho body of a woman,
with a child grasped closely to each arm,
was drawn out, a gentleman who had
been walking to and fro sinco tho dis
aster at ones recognized them us his wife
and children. Ho said that just before
the collision ho left his family to go to
tho smoking cur, and had hardly stepped
into tho adjoining car when the shock
camo, and separated thorn from him for
ever. Ouo of tho children was wrapped
closely in a shawl and was not burned at
all, though it hud been drowned. The
other, as well as tho mother, was badly
burned about the fuco and breast.

A Strange Story.
A correspondent of a Cincinnati paper,
writing from Richmond, Ind., tells and
vouches for tho truth of tho following
curious story:
About two years ago, Mr. A. married.
In duo t imo ho became a father, but his
wil'o died when tho child was a frw
months old. On her Ucath-bcd sho ex
hibited intense anxiety as to tho fato of
tho little ono sho was to leave behind her,
and earnestly besought her husband to
conlido it, after her death, to tho caro of
ono of her relatives. Ho promised, and, I
believe, did for :i whilo let tho child stay
in charge of tho person whom tho mother
had designated. Soino weeks ago, how
ever, Mr. A. again married, and at onco
reclaimed tho child, who as yet had nev
er learned to speak a Word, mid was una
blo even to crawl. Ono day this child was
left alouo for a few moments in its step
mother's bedroom, lying in a crib or cra
dle sumo distance from the bed. When
Mrs. A. returned, sho was amazed to sco
the child smiling and crowing on tho mid
dle of tho bed. In her astonishment,
she involuntarily asked :
' Who put you there, baby ?"
" Mamma," responded distinctly tho
child, that had never heretofore spoken a
word.
On ,i strict inquiry throughout tho
household, it was found that none of tho
family had been in tho room during Mrs.
A.'s brief absence from it. This, it is
solemnly averred, was but tho beginning
of a series of spiritual visitations from
the dead mother. Whenever tho child
wis left alono it could bo heard to laugh
and crow, as if delighted by tho fondlings
and endearments of some one, nnd on
these occasions it was frequently found
to have changed its dress, position, etc.,
in a manner quito beyond its own unaid
ed capacity. Finally, as tho account
the Cist Mrs. A. appeared one night re
cently at the bedside of Mr. A. and hid
second wife, and earnestly entreated that
her darling should bo restored to the rel
ative whom she had indicated as tho guar
dian of the child on her deathbed. The
apparition, which it is declared, was dis
tinctly seen and heard by both Mr. A.
and his wife, promised to haunt them no
more if her wish was complied with.
Jloth Mr. A. and his wile were too much
nwc-strieken to reply ! but tho next day
tho child was carried back as directed by
the ghostly visitant. Such is tho story
as seriously vouched by the principal
parties concerned, who arc most respect
able and intelligent people, and no spiritualists.
Kensington Itank Robbery.
On Friday morning the 3rd inst., the
Kensington Rank, Philadelphia, was
lobbed of funds to (ho amount of $(15,000.
Tho burglars came disguised as pulico of
ficers, informing the private bank watch
men that there was a plut laid for rob
bing the bank that night nnd said that
they wero sent from the police head
quarters to assist iu keeping watch. Tho
pretended policeman were then admitted,
when they cooly proceeded to gag thejtwo
watchmen, and then admitted u number
of confederates, who wore armed with
burglars tools. Tho robbers were suc
cessful iu securing
amount of money,
wero made to break
the above named
Desperate efforts
open the burglar
proof sale, insiJo the vault, which con
tained millions of money and securities
belonging to the bank. Tho robbers
were foiled in this attempt. Tho police
were notified of the affair, but up to the
timo of going to press have found uo
traces of the robbers. The loss falls en
tirely upon the depositors.
Another Hank Robbery.
On Saturday morning tho messenger of
the Chatham National liunk, N. Y., had
stolen from his pocket a wallet containing
notes and drafts to the amount of over
twenty-three thousand dollars.
Tho messenger does not exactly know
when tho theft was committed. He
stepped into the post office to mako tin in
quiry, and while iu the lobby some per
son passing through the throng rushed
by mid jostled him, and shortly afterward
ho was jostled by two or three persons
together whilo passing along Dey street.
In a littlo while afterward he discov
ered that his wallet, containing tho notes
and drafts was missing. I'uyiuent was
immediately stopped, so that tho bank
loses nothing and suffers no inconvenience,
except tho trouble of obtaining duplicates
of tho lost papers.
fay In tho town of Newbury, Mass.,
is u dwelling which was erected in 1082.
It is a genuine curiosity, and is so heavi
ly timbered that it will stand live hun
dred years, unless pulled down. It was
usod for a garrison in the time of the
Indian wars. Tho stairs are made of
blocks of oak ten inches wide and ten
inches thick. What is quite as remarka
blo as anything about it is the fact that
tho dwelling is now occupied by the sev
enth generation of tho family that built
it, tho Christian name of each owner be

house.
Wanted the Owner of $700 Dollars.
On the Gth of July, 18C5, John White
wrote from Memphis, Tcnn., to Georgo S.
Thompson, claim ngont at Springfield, 111.,
requesting tho latter to collect tho back
pay of himself and brother William as
soldiers in tho Eleventh Illinois Regiment
at tho samo timo enclosing his discharge
papers. Tho letter stated that they bad
been iu tho hospital a long timo, and
closed thus: "Wo start for homo this
evening, in company that will help us
nlong : so I want you to get our money
as soon as possible, and scud it to dipt.
James K. Martin, Uunton House, Tcrro
Haute, Ind., and lie will fetch it to us."
Tho letter miscarried so as not to reach
tho agent until a month later, when tho
money was collected, amounting to about
$700 ; and sent by tho American Express
Company. Neither tho Whites nor Mar
tin could bo found, and tho Express Co.,
after advertising tho packago for some
timo, sent it to their principal office in
this city.
Mr. Thompson, the agent, theu de
manded tho money, offering to pay all
costs and charges, and to indemnify tho
Company against any claim of tho con
signees. Tho demand was refused, and
Thompson brought a suit in tho Supreme
Court. The referee, T. Sherwood, before
whom it was tried, decided iu favor of
1 honip.son, though ho confessed that it
Was a matter of great embarrassment to
him to say which party was right iu its
claim. His decision was based upon a
statement in Augell on Common Carriers,
that where tho consignee cannot bo found
then a new contract arises whereby tho
Company is bound to deliver to the con
signor. The Express Company appealed, and
on the argument yesterday it was con
tended that Thompson having no prop
erty in tho package or lien upon it, ho
had no status to maintain an action for
its delivery to him, and that the Company
was responsible only to the actual owner.
Decision reserved.
CO"-Tho New York " Tribune" men
tions a couple of incidents honorable to
human nature. One, the story of a poor
acrobat out West, who was dashed from
his giddy height to the ground ; and who,
when tho crowd gathered around him,
raised himself mangled and bleeding, to
gasp out entreaties for them to save the
two girls left unsupported on the trapeze"
lie refused to bo lifted until they were
rescued, and in tho agony of his fall and
shattered limbs directed how they should
be brought down. When they were safe
pain got tho better of him, and he was
carried as dead off the stage. The women
were strangers to him. The other is of
a little girl who wandered on to tho track
of tho Delaware Railroad as a freight
train of nineteen cars was approaching.
As it turned the sharp top of tho grade
opposite St. Georges, the engineer taw
the child for the first time, blew "Down
brakes," and reversed tho engine.
Rut it was too late to slacken its speed
in time, and tho poor baby got tip, and
laughing ran to meet it. "I told tho con
ductor," says the engineer, "if he could
jump off the engine, and, running ahead,
pick the child up before the engine
reached her ho might save her life,
though it would risk bis own, which he
did. Tho engine was within one foot of
tho child when ho secured it. nnd they
wero both saved."
