'. It. R Accident, A very serious accident
happened, about 1 mile west of Mifilin on
Thursday night about 11 o'clock. The
Cincinnati Express east was In two sections
the 2d section leaving Altoonu, nearly an
hour later than the first. This train not
being able to make schedule timo fell bo
hind, and the second section did not see
the red light until rounding a curve the en
gineer found his train close upon the first.
Ho promptly applied the air-brake and ar
rested the motion of his train. The sudden
check, however, parted the coupling be
tween the express and baggage car, tho
engine and express car dashed ahead, con
trolled by the break of tho engine alono.
The accident was the immediate result of
tho coupling breaking between tho tender
of the second engine and the express car.
Had the coupling not broken, no accident
would have occurred. As it was, when the
coupling parted, the rear train came easily
and gently to a stand still, tho passengers
not knowing why they stopped. But when
the engine became detached, it lost con
trol of tlie breaks, and flew with lightning
like rapidity into the first train, which was
running at the time it was stritck,at a speed
of full fifteen miles per hour. The result
of the crash was that the two rear Pullman
cars of the first train, wore violently driven
into each other. It Is a strange fact that the
porter of the rear car, who occupied tho end
apartment, was uninjured, while five per
sona were instantly crushed to death, and
several injured.
The persons killed were Matthew Know-
lea and J. W. Bacon, of Chicago ; W. W.
Dortz, wife and one child. Mr. Dortz was
an employeo in the House of Represent
atives at Washington, and was on his way
there. The cngino which did the damage,
did not leave the track, and was so littlo
injured that it took tho train on to Ilar
risburg. Marysville News. Our correspondent at
Marysville sends the following:
On the evening of Doc. 5th, a melancholy
accident befell a young man of this place,
by the name of Eml. Kunkle, which caused
his death instantly.
Young Kunkle was employed by tho P.
R. R. Co., with a gang of men under the
supervision of W. G. Hoke, on tho track a
short distanco above Newport.
These men were taken to and from their
work from this place by the Ballast Train,
and on returning on Thursday evening
about one mile east of Newport, tho train
uncoupled from the engine while running
at the rate of 25 miles por hour, throwing
tho young man, (who with some others had
been setting on tho dead wood of the en
gino, with their foot braced on the end of
the first car,) on the track, the wholo train
passing over hiin,raangling his body almost
beyond recognition.
This, it will be remembered is the same
Mr. Kunlclo, who was thrown and almost
dragged to death by a hoise in Rye twp.,
last summer. The shock to his mother,
(who has been an invalid for somo time)
was so great that she is not expected to
live.

A ' Montgomery's Ferry, Deo. 0, 1872.
Mr. Editor I take the privilege of giv
ing you a few notes of the times and do
ings in our quiet place. Boating is played
out for this season and the animals are not
sorry as the greater portion of them have
the Epizootic. Numbers of them have died
and been pitched over to the care of Davy's
Locker. Farmers are very busy slaughter
ing their Porkers the heaviest one that
I have heard tell of, was one killed by
Frederick Buck, which weighed 880 pounds.
Thanksgiving passed over very quietly,
generally observed by our citizens.' '
A robbery whs committed in the borough
of New BulTiilo, oil the evening of the 4th
inst. The parties have not been apprehend
ed at the date of this writing, but warrants
havo been iHsuetl lor tlieir arrest. .
A hunting nai ty started out last nieht
for OpposHiuns they reported this morn
ing, one 'Possum, and the party all greased
with "lie." I think it was not 'Possum
oil, but tho extract of Rye. Game is very
iilenty this fall such as Wild Turkeys,
tnbbits, Squirrels, &c. Rabbits havo been
killed in somo cases that show a disease
similar to the Epizootic. The weather is
fine. More anon. Mabtauon.
Cninberland County. From the Cumber
land county papers we copy the following:
The post-office at Lisburn, this county,
was burglariously entered on Sunday night
of last week. The burglar succeeded in
carrying oil' tho letters that wero in the
office.
Tho store room adjoining tho post-office,
occupied by Hon men & Co., was broken
into tho same night, and robbed of eighty
dollars and an overcoat.
On Wednesday evening last, Edward
Low, son of Mr. John Low, of Carlisle,
while playing iu the Court House, acci-
dently slipped from one of the steps and
fell, breaking his iclt arm immediately
below tho elbow,and severely spraining tlie
right arm. Ono of his legs was also con
siderably bruised. Medical aid was imme
diately summoned, when the broken arm
was placed in its proper position and tho
lad otherwise cared for. We are glad to
learn that he is recovering rapidly.
Ou Friday night last an attempt was
made to rob tlio post-office iu Carlisle. The
burglar mistook tho Herald printing office
for tlio post-office, and gained access to it
through a window in the rear of the build
ing. He soon, however, discovered his
mistake, and vacated the printing office.
Whether he hoped to get into tho post-
office from the printing office no person
but himself knows as the rooms join each
other, and a printing office is a poor place
to seek plunder but nevertheless his plans
wore frustrated. After leaving tlie print
ing office, he proceeded to the rear window
of tho post-oflice which is one or two be
low tho window in which he entered tlie
printing office and wliilo endeavoring to
t'orco tho shutter open, the noise awoke
Mr. Harry Brenneman, who was asleep in
tho office at tho time. Mr. B. immediately
procured his revolver and llred, when the
villian beat a retreat down Liberty alley,
and escaped. Had the burglar gained ad
mittance to the office, Mr. Brenneman,
would, in all probability havo been mur
dered, and the office rilled of its contents.
A teamster in ShippeiiHburg was arrested
in that borough on luesday evening,
charged with cruelty to a horse.' Ho was
invited to pay tlio usual lino and costs
amounting to $12.84, and after a fow hours
reflection in tlie lock-up accepted the in
vite.
Juniata County. The following wo copy
from tho Miffiintown Independent:
On Saturday last Rev. Solomon Soiber,
of Delaware township, near Thorn psontown
full and in falling broke his left Wrist.
A young man named Albert Smith, a
flagman on a freight train on tho Penn
sylvania railroad, was injured about tho
head while watching hot boxes on the train,
by coming in contact with the abutment of
a public road bridgo that crosses over the
railroad, at a point betwoen Granville and
Lewistown, on Thursday last. Ho was
knocked oil' the car on which be was stand
ing and when found was unconscious and
remained in that stato about 24 hours after
the accident oocurred. He was brought to
Patterson the same day and medical nid
summoned, and his wounds dressed. He
is getting along as well as could be ex
