In the snit for libel instituted by Stephen

The venerable end universally esteemed Judge
Wm. Crunoh, for to long a period connected with
the judioiary of the Dietriot of Columbia, expired
at hie residence in Washington, at an early hour
on Saturday €Yemng.
Wm. Fry, ao esteemed dtiien of Philadelphia,
died in that oity last week, at tho age of 78.
Mr. F., in oonneotion with Robert Waleh, Eeq ,

A young fiend named John Fitigorald, aged
18, killed his father, mother, and his brother
James, 14 years of age, at North Sterling, near
Oswego, N. York, on last Wednesday night. It
was done with an axe, and in revenge for some
fanoied grievance. Ho had beforo attempted to
poison his father aod mother by putting stryob

A Mr. Brown, a member of the Stillwell M. E.
Churob, in New York, was arrested and spent

members on temporal matters, and when the
minister, Rev. Mr. Thompson, attomptod to

For his temerity he was arrested by a polloeman-
THE OHIO
It is well known that IA Ohio three candidates
are running for Governor. Medill is the Demo
oratio candidate; Chase the Republican candi
date ; and Trimble is “ Bam'a ” candidate. The
fusion between Bam and the Abolitionists is all
blown up. The Know Nothings will not swallow
Chase. It is an unfortunate turn of affairs for
him, for his eleoiion as Governor by the fusion
party was designed to place him on high ground
as the Republican er.i-J.dMe for the Presidency
next year. If the K. N.'s of Ohio would join
the Abolitionists to elect him Governor this year,
it was supposed they would do the same all over
the Northern States next year, and give him a
ohanoe for the Presidency. This year's election
in Ohio was to be the test of his availability on
the wider field next year; and, alas for his
vaulting ambition 1 the experiment is likely to
ruin him. He oan neither be Governor nor can
didate for Preeident. Hear what the Cincinnati
Tima, the leading organ of the K. N.’s, says of
Chase's ohanoes. Here it is :
•< We have a cheering letter from Knox county
in our oolumns to-dey. Bam is at his old trioks,
playing possum. There were never brighter
proepeots for putting Looofooolsm to the rout
than now. ' Drop Chase and rally on Trimble,’
Is bolng passed through all tho Counoils over
the whole State. Stand from under, Sam’s
awake.”
Bam'o organ admits, then, that Sam 11 plays
poeeum,” and "is at hie old trioks.” A candid
admission, that, for his organ to make. We
thought Bam wee going to play fair this time, as
far as previous habits would allow, and meet
their enemies faoe to face. But in Ohio it seems
not. He is “playing possum ” again. But how
they are going to put “Locofocoism to the
rout” by running two candidates against the
Demooratio candidate, the learned and enthusi
astic editor of the Tima is in too mnoh of a
harry to explain. “Drop Chase and rally on
Trimble !” Well, a large portion of tho K N.’o
will do so. Bat the Abolitionists and another
portion of the K. N.'e will stiok to Chase, and
both will como ont behind. The Demoorata
have a glorious chance in Ohio this year, and
they evidently intend to make the most of it.
We have the same ohanoe in Allegheny ooun
ty. Pa., this fall, if the Democrats will wake up,
and make “ one long pull, and strong pull, and
pull &U together,” for ft victory-
Extlosiof or the Boilers is a Paper Mill*
—The boilers la the paper mill of Hanna &
Sons, at Steubenville, exploded on Friday night.
The ends of the two boilers were blown out, and
the boilers themselves hurled through the north
end of the mill, oarrylng all obstructions before
them —thrown entirely out of the mill, upon the
grounds adjoining- A German, a sort of ft sub
engtneer, by the name of Frank Stambaugh, was
the only person in that part of the mill at the
tlme b e was not killed, but horribly scalded.
The akin and flesh on his f&oe, breast and arms
appeared to be literally oooked—eo muoh so,
that the blood ran down off the injured parts.
The damage to the mill is estimated at about
52,000, partly covered by insnrance.
Utowaht, it Tara.-We hear it reported in
the streets that one of the chief features of the
Republican Convention to-day will be Jane
Wheeler, alias Johnson. She is expected to
make a epeeoh. Passmore Williamson is a
prominent oandldate for Canal Commissioner.
H« will net be present, for obvious reasons.
gTUKarsiiow, it is announced, will be a can
didate for Governor of Missouri at the next
.leaden He has been a candidate for the gal
lows for a twelvemonth- an elevaid position he
baa shown himself eminently fitted for.

Uo the 10th, the Heraldo and Siglo XIX news
papiTß began to publish remarks on the actual
condition of affairs, hrenkiug through the hoods
in which Iho press had hitherto been held.
Tbev bulb published the plan of Ayutla, and
precipitated tho is6ue of a prouuDoiameuto in
iho capital, which was at first proclaimed by a
part of tbo garrison, and in tbo evening by the
population, who adopted it. Un the night of
the 1 Idtb. thc commission appointed by ffanta
Anna pat at liberty the gontlemeu that bad
been appoint! d by him, who wore some sixty in
number, aud were tho principal agents in caus
ing the general adoption of tbo plan of Ayutla.
About tbo middle of tbo followiog day a
meeting of tho populace took place in tho Ala
meda, numberiog from 8,000 to 10,000. They
finally confirmed tin* piau of Ayutla, with the
addition of making a provision for tho organize
inn of tbo Natiouai Guard From the Alameda
they marched to the I’alace Squaro, and wanted
to enter tho psUoc to destroy tho furniture of
Santa Anna. Several shots were fired, and one
man was killed.
The populace thou went to the offioe or thc
L'uiversal newspaper, and destroyed most of tne
paper, type, fixtures aDd presses. Thence they
went to tho bouse of the banker, Lizardi, burned
all his furniture, inoluding a large quantity of
valuable papors, bonds, Sic. Tho house of Senor
Bonilla, late Minister of Finance, sharod a simi
lar fate, including his very valuable library,
worth somo $16,000. The whole damage done
to his plaoe is estimated at $40,000. The house
of Stnora Tosta, Banta Anna's mother-in-law,
was next attacked and everything in it destroyed,
iuolndiDg threo handsome carriages. These
were first filled with various artioles, then set on
fire, and so dragged through the city, like
ohariots of fire.
The house of the banker Esoandon was also
entered, aud somo damage done to it—not more
perhaps than $4OOO or s6ooo—before the mili
tary arrived and fired on tho people, killing four
and wounding ten. The other ministers and
objeots of the popular vongeanoo had taken the
precantloD to remove most of their property,
and secreting it in some plaoe of safety. Be
sides those above mentioned, some forty were
killed and as many wounded by the military
during the prooeediDgs.
On tho following day the statuo of Bant
Anna io tbo market plaoe, was thrown down
from its lofty pedestal, and tho people wanted
to drag it through the Btreeta, but were pre
vented, and four pereous woro shot on this
point.
On the evening of the 15tb, the now govern
ments sent, under Gen. Vega, expresses to the
various Governors of the Departments or States,
requesting them to prouounoe, and at the same
time they Bent to the commanders of the liberal
foroos to inform them that everything had been
regulated aooording to their views, and to re
quest them to oome to the oapital alone, leaving
their foroes behind them, and for the purpose
of electing offioers and arranging the govern
ment
The liberal party, however, wore not satisfied,
and sent on to tbo oommanders, telling them to
bring their foroes, and that they would then be
able to carry out tbeir plans. The new govern
ment was ia fact oomposed of a largo proportion
of tbo members of tbo last one, and olosely uni
ted witb the Churoh, for whioh reason the liberals
oould not adopt it.
D. Luis do la Rosa, late Mexioan Minister in
Washington, has boen appointed Governor of
Puebla, to tbo great satisfaction of the liberals.
Sr. Lizardi bad olaimed $2,000,000 for bonds
and valuable papers burned, and (aooording to a
privato note) tho American Minister says ho has
lost his rights, as ho aooopted the Cross of Guo
dalnpo from Santa Anna.
The press was free, and the Verdad , the Mon

The following little inoident from the Albany
Knickerbocker shows what a high estimato em
ployees of railroad companies plaoe upon human
life:
Ono of the most inexcusable aots of rookless
ness that we ever heard of took plaoe on the
Albany and Boston Railroad, on Tuesday after
noon. As the 4:80 train got within a fow miles
of Chatham, a train on the Hudson and Berk- ■
ehiro Railroad was discovered going towards
Chatham also. A challenging signal was im
mediately given from the Albany engine to the
Hudson to oatoh them if they oould. The train
from Albany consisted of engine, one or two
baggage oars, and three ooaches heavily loaded
with passengers. The one from Hudson had
two ooaches with a few passengers, consequently
was light, and gained upon the other about five
seoonds to the mile. Both engines were “wide
open,” and doing their best. After running
about throe miloo side by side—the Hudson and
Berkshire traok takes a ourve round a rook end
a stream, and orossos the Western Railroad
traok nearly at right angles—the engineer of
the Albany train oaloulated that the Hudson
train would lose three seoonds in going round
the rook, while the engineer of the Hudson train
imagined ho could gain still more, as his train
was now under full headway. Having gained
fifteen seoonds, and got even with the Albany
train the Hudson engineer thought he oould
get over the orossing ahead. The oaloulations
were very oloee, and would have done for horeo
boat captains, but was oriminal in railroad en
gineers Instead of gaining, the Albany engine
lost two Beconds, and Btruok the other train in
the centre of a passenger oar, outting it in two,
and oarrying the entire Albany train through
the oar. As the Albany truok struck the other,
the engine wasßUSPlaoed, and struok sleo P- !
ore instead of tfofails, and just after passing
through the oar, jumped around crosswise of
the track, considerably wrepfced. Had the en
gine of the Albany train gained a few seoonds
i instead of loosing, the Hudson train would have
struok the Albany oars in the oontre, and the
loos of lifo and limb that would then have en
sued, can be easily imagined. The oar from
Hudson had but throe passengers, who escaped
miraouiously—the conductor being the only one
hurt, and he not very Berioualy. Whether the
Western Railroad Company will reward the en
gineers for their close calculations, or discharge
them for their recklessness, we do not know.
The matter is before the Board of Directors for
investigation. _

[Juv«r Democratic Coaveatlon. ]
Oa Monday, the Beaver County Democratic ; <
Convention was held in the Court House. It
had been predicted by our opponents that we ,
would havo a “ sUm” meeting—they aaid that
there was not enough of life among us to bring
ns together; and a great deal of other stuff.
Early in the morning it began to rain, and it
rained almoet incessantly throughout the greater
1 part of the day ; but notwithstanding this, the
Democracy oamo out, and nearly every township
in the oountv was represented in tho Conven
tion. It was truly cheering to Beo that large
assemblage of faithful men, whom the mad op
position of proscription could uot deter, nor the
pleadings of new-fangled isms sway from their
adherenoo to the Democratic P*' 1 ?’!? av ? n S the
comforts of home and braving the difficulties in
cident to traveling on euoh a day. They felt
that doty called, and they obeyed.
The Convention was organised by electing the
firm ohampion of Beaver county Democracy,
Col Thomas Cunningham, President, Hon. Jo
seph Irwin and John Graham-two worthy men,
who have been long identified with he Demo
cratic party in this county-Vine I residents;
and Wm. L. Diokineon and L. B Dougherty,
Secretaries. , ~, . . . ..
Judge Irwin then offered the following Anti-
Know Nothing test, whioh was signed by all the
delegates present : , , .
“The undersigned delegates hereby pledge
themselves that they do not belong to any secret
or other political sooioty or organization that
makes either birth-place or religious belief a
teat of citizenship or eligibility to office, other
wise than the same is reoogmzod in the constitu
tion of the United States. ' .
The Convention was then addressed by the
President in one of hie happy, extemporaneous
etlorts. In this epceob, the eloquent speaker
dwelt upon the notions and policy of tko politi
cal parties of the day. He showed up in a clear
light the difference betweon the noble, libera
and benign policy of the party of Jiffereon and
Jackson, and the contracted views and discord
ant elements of the opposition. In his few but
pointed remarks, the Colonel unmasked the op
posing parties in a manner that was well calcu
lated to show the superiority of Amerioan De
mocracy over suoh contemptible isms.
The following ticket was then placed in nomt
nation by the CouvonLion :
Assembly —John While.
Treasurer —Hugh IS Anderson
Commissioner —Philip Cooper.
Poor House Director— Robert Potter
Trustees 0/ Academy— Wm. Davidson, R 0
M'Qregor.
Auditor —James W Pander.
Resolutions Blrong in language, sound in De
mooracy, republican in spirit, dignified in char
aoter, and practical in tendenoy, were then
unanimously passed.
A County Committee was appointed. Among
the other duties of that Committee, it was re
solved that they should require tho candidates
nominated to Bign a pledge similar to that al
ready signed by the delegatee; and authority
was given the Committeo to fill any vacancies
that should ocour, in the event of any candidate
refusing to sign the test.
Whenevor the Democracy of the Stato wish to
look upon a county whose Democracy are com
posed of the right stuff, who are doing their
whole duty, and doing it cfeciutsUy, let them turn
to Beaver; for here we are determined to leave
no honorable measure uniried—no proper effort
unapplied. _ VILLAGER

THE LATE lUILROAU ACCIDEST
INCIDENTS, Ac.
Burlington, on Saturday. had aesumod again
its business appearance, bul few idlers being
seen exoept about tho hotels, and in the room iu
whioh the Jury of Inquest is holding its ses
sions. The death of Mr. Oillespie, on Saturday
afternoon, caused but little excitement, as the
sad eront was anticipated before the amputation
of bis leg. He losses property valaod at some
$600,000. Tho brother of Mrs. Gillespie, was
with him all tho time, and on Saturday several
of his friends arrived in town. The body was
placed in a metallio oeffin, and brought on to this
I oiy, where it will remain in a receiving vault,
| to await the death or recovery of Mrs. Gillespie,
The body of Mr. Humphries, of Peoria, Illi
nois and whioh was about being placed in the
possession of Mr. Wright, was olaimeJ on Sat
urday, by a woman named Mrs Drake, of Bjh
ton, who exhibited a paper dated Boston, Au
gus't 29th, authorising her to tike charge of the
body and his eileots, among wbioh is $2,000,
and to prosecute tho Railroad Company. At
tached to this written authority, was a certificate
from a witness, who testified to tho truth of the
instructions, all of whioh was written in the
Bame hand, and very badly. This woman, when
doubts were expressed of tbo genuineness of
tho paper, beoamo very indignant, and stated
that she would writo to President Pierce and
some other dignitaries, all of whom she knew,
and go to Peoria and bring Mr. Humphries’
wife on, but that Bhe would get possession of
tho body. Tho remains will bo kept in Burling
ton until tho difficulty is settled.
Tho lion. J- M. Mac Cloy is improving, but his
injuries are such that ho will not bo aide to
leave for his home for two or three weekß.
John Kelly, of Pittsburgh, and all tho other
wounded in town are doing well, and it is thought
all of them will reoover. They are receiving
every attention from the oitizens of Boriiugton
and tho friends of the wounded, many of whom
have arrived in town.

havo beon killed by the accident:
