SIIOrKINO RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
A dreadful accident happened on the Cen.
tral Railroad at about ten o'clock on Tuesday:
the Sl.st nit., the particulars of which we
gather from a gentleman who was a passen
ger in the train at the time.
The Express train coming East, when
about nine miles west of Syracuse, in conse
quence of the brakeman turning oH tho wrong
switch, came in collision with a freight train,
on the other track.
The shock was tremendous and the effects
ppalling. The baggage car of the Express
train was flung over on one side the loco
motive demolishing one of the freight oars
literally bounded up on those farther ahead,
and it remained in that position when las
seen.
The first shock of the concussion sent the
engineer headlong through the passenger
car nearest the engine. Ho was terribly
mangled. Tho poor fellow died almost im
mediately, shrieking "For God's sake, save
me save me save me!" His name is
Coleman, and is said to have resided in Ro
chester, where he has b family.
The fireman was very badly hurt, but may
recover.
There were other persons on the engine
and tender, but they jumped off, and escaped
with slight bruises.
In the freight train there was a man asleep,
an Indian, it is said, w ho was instantly kil
led. His body was literally crushed to a
jelly, and ' had to be lifted piecemeal from
amongst the rubbish.
The scene is repotted to have been one of
the most painful imaginable. There were
about three hundred passenger in the train
coming East a mainriiy of whom were
ladies.
On experiencing tho first shock, a scream
of terror was raised, the passengers all
springing spontaneously from their soals", and
rushing frantically towards the doois. ;Sit
down!" "sit down!" ''and you will be
safe!'' eotr.o gentlemen shouted, and not in
vain ! The panic was over in a moment,
and, our informant assures us, rot one of the
persons was materially injured : but their
escape, under tho circumstances, he says
was miraculous.
Workmen were engaged during the night
clearing oil the wreck and making arrange
menu for burying the dead.
The train coming east consisted of five
passenger cars, and at the time of the colli
sion it was supposed to be going at the rate
of thirty miles an hour. All the platforms
were smashed and many of I lie windows
stove in, but apart from this no great injury
wns sustained.
Great indignation is expressed in reference
to the sw itchman, of whose carelessness this
shucking affair is the result. As he was not
seen after tho collision, it is supposed he has
ruu of! to escape arrest. .V, Y. Express.

02?" The old adage about the lamb and
lion advent and exit of fickle March has
been most emphatically established this
year. The first week of his administration
was as mild and lamb-like as that of May.
The lamb has grown up suddenly to a fierce
old ram, and, in the shape of frosts and
hurricanes, butted every body and every
thing in a most unheard of manner. The
buds and flowers that precociously peeped
out have been nipped. The little streams
that took off llieir icy overcoats and prepa
red for a merry dance under bright skies
and many a passing flirtation with the little
flowers which last season to often kissed
thrir tiny tide, have had their hop-' blasted
and shrunk, like disappointed wooers, into
freezing silence.
The river has been frozen over during
this week , the fourth time for this season.
The canals ate in the same condition.
Spring business had commenced and all
the boats were already running. The ice
came upon them and they have all been
frozen up. Numbers ol rafls of lumber
have been stopped in the ice. Fortunately
it is not very strong or much serio'js dam
age would result.

LOtU KOISUTII.
Louis Kossuth has written a letter from
hi asylum in England lecturing the U.S.
Senale for rejecting Mr. Saunden, ai Consul
at London. He wai petted, feted, and
patronized by the people here, until he hai
fancied himself entitled to a Voice in our
councils, or at least a tort of public moni
tor. He is simple enough to imagine that
he is an object of reverence and worship
to the Americans because they happened,
in their thirst for exciting parades, to make
a fuss about him, and extol his speeches as
something extraordinary for a Hun.
He must, in his close study of our history,
have overlookril the fact that similar dem.
onstrations were made in favor ol public
dansvese, whose reputation was undoubted
and whoie only virtue was a well devel
oped calf. He forgets that he was distin
guished by thrir notice ; that they picked
him up as an object for the display of their
skill in processions, banquets and speech
making; an animated rattle played with
by grown up children to be thrown aside
when the charm of its novelty had worn
away.
In this state of mental apotheosis, ima
gining himself the Guardian of liberty and
solidarity throughout the world, he has
cooliy pointed out to the Senate the error
of their ways and intimated a re-considera
tion of their action as the only means of
propitiating offended deity. At the same
time he suggests to President Pierce that
consistency requires him to re-nominate
Mr. Saunders at once. The Germans and
the press are culled upon to urge the same
action, llf says
From what 1 have seen in America, I have
the oiinlident be In-1 tlint the public opinion
will nut have ratiliod thisileeil. I have been
aUo often told, while in the United States,
that the elected ones of the people deem it
thrir duty and highest honor to be the ex
pressions of the popular will, so that I cannot
doubt that if public opinion wouM, in a con
stitutional way, manliest itself with consists
ent vigor, the President of Ihe United Stales
would exercise his privilege with pleasure
by once more proposing Mr. Sanders as Ihe
American Consul in Loudon ; and the Senate
now conscious of the political consequence,
of its refusal, would sane I ion it unanimously ;
and so personal feelings yielding to hiaher
aims to 1'nlelity towards republican princi
ples, both the elevated branches of that great
Demociulic, Power would be anxious lo give
iu this critical moment an unmistakable de
claration lo Ihe world, that the oppressed na
tions in Europe r.ave no reason to doubt the
sy m pat hies o the Uniled Slates, while thedes
pors would learn Ihnt Ihe republican sympa
thies of an American Slates-otiicer are a sure
claim to tho conli lence of the American
j Government.
It is apparent that his one idea has ab
sorbed all the rest of his brilliant mind.
The only charitable excuse we can find
for him is monomania. On that plea alone
can he possibly be defended from the
charge of unsuflerable impudence. "Be
ware of foreign influence" was the counsel
given to us in the infancy of our republic.
That great man who gave it never supposed
that an exile governor of a foreign republic,
who made no end of harangues in favor of
non-intervention, could so far forget him
self and us to dictate to our Senate from
the British capital. One can scarcely be
lieve it possible that vanity and conceij
could so far outstrip propriety and turn an
exiled patriot into an impudent charleton.
The dignity of the U. S. Senate must have
been deeply impressed on Kossuth's mind ;
he must have an exalted opinion of the
character of the American people, when
EXECUTION OP-DAVID JEWELL, AT
flTTSBlRG.
David Jewell was executed in Pittsburgh,
at two o'clock on Friday afternoon. '
Large crowds thronged Ihe street from an
early hour, and at lime it was difficult to
suppress disorder. About four hundred per
sona were assembled within the. jail-yard to
witness the execution.
During the entire night and Friday morn
ing, the prisoner was visited by the clergy,
and joined with them in prayer.
At one o'clock on Friday afternoon the
Sheriff informed Ihe prisoner that the time
hid arrived, and the executioner, a disguised
s'.ranger, knocked off his iron and pinioned
his arms. The Sheriff ttua escorted him to
the place of execution.
The prisoner stepped forward and thanked
the Sheriff for bis kindness, begging that he
would not be the executioner. He then read
a dying declaration, reviewing ihe proceed
ings of the court which oonvicted him, and
denying premeditated murder. He had
never known his victim before he went out
with a friend to redress that friend's grievan
ces. Heated with drink and maddened to
insanity, he had no lecollection of events
until after the fatal blow attributed to him.
He concluded by addressing his young
friends, urging them to avoid Ihe intoxicating
cup, cordially forgiving all, and hoping lobe
forgiven. He felt confident of the mercy
nnd forgiveness of God.
The clergymen then offered np prayer, the
prisoner joining audibly.
The hangman proceeded lo adjust Ihe rope,
when Ihe piisoner requested a prayer from
the SheiilT, which was at once acceeded to-
Jewell then commenced praying, during
which the Sheriff gave the signal, the hang
man touched tho lever, ami the unfortunate
man swung in Ihe air, his neck being broken
immediately.
In about half an hour tho body was cut
down and placed in a coffin, to be buried on
Sunday.
Juwell displayed much firmness and resig
nation throughout.
MANIFESTO Of THE CZAR NICHOLAS.
"We, Nichola I., ice.'
'We bava already Informed our beloved
and faithful subjects of our progress of our
disagreement with the Ottoman Porte.
Since then, although hostilities have com
menced, we have not ceased sincerely to
wish, at we still wish, the cessation of blood
hed. We even entertained the hope that
reflection and time would convince the Turk
ish Government of ita misconceptions, en
gendered by treacherous instigators, in which
our just demands, founded on treaties, have
been represented as attempts at ita inde
pendence, and veiling intentions ef aggran
disement. Vain, however, have been our
expectations, so far.
The English and French Governments
have aided with Turkey, and the appearance
of the combined fleet at Constantinople
served as a further incentive to its obstiuan
cy ; and now both the Western Powers,
without previously declaiirig war, have sent
their fleets into the Black Sea, proclaiming
their intention lo protect Ihe Turks and to
impede Ihe free navigation of our vessels of
war for the defence of our coasts. After so
unheard-of a course among civilized nations,
we recalled our embassies from England and
France, and have broken off all political
intercourse with those Powers.
Thus England and France have sided with
the enemies of Christianity against Russia,
who is combating for the orthodox faith.
"But Russia will not betray her holy call
ing; and, if enemies infringe our frontiers,
we am ready to meet them with the firmness
bequeathed to ns by our forefathers. Are we
not Ihe same Russian nation of whose exploits
the memorable events of 1812 bear witness
"May the Almighty assist us to prove this
by deeds. With this hope, combatting for
our persecuted brethren, followers of the
faith of Christ, with one accord let all Russia
exclaim 'O, Lord, our Redeemer! whom
shall we fear 1 May God be glorified and
his enemies be scattered.'

Considerable excitement was occasioned
along Broadway on Tuesday afternoon, by
the discovery of a fiat boat containing a
number of persons with a load of furniture,
ice-locked in the river opposite the Bo
rough. They had started from Turtle
Creek, supposing; that they could force
their way through the floating ice to this
place. When they had reached the middle
of the river just opposite here, the ire
stopped and they were unable to move the
boat. The cold was intense and a keen
northwester blowing, ami Ihe men, women
and children in the boat had every prospect
of spending the night in their open craft,
without food or fire.
A number of our citizens succeeded by
great exertions, in reaching them in small
boats. After some three hours hard work.
cutting and breaking the ice with axes, a
couple of rope were passed to the flat and
the persons on shore drew it lo land. Those
in the flat were exhausted Iroin their pre
vious exertions and were almost benumbed
with cold. They must have perished had
they remained all night in the ice.

he thus thrusts his advice and suggestions,
his approval or condemnation upon those
to whom he owes, if not his liberty, at
least his subsistence. It is certainly unbe
coming for any foreigner lo interfere in
our affairs; much more so when that for-!
eigner was but a year or two ago a sup- j
pliant at our doors, not for protection, but
for bounty. S.ich assurance and imperti
nence as his letter exhibits, are without a
parallel. Surely no friend of Louis Koksulu
ever allowed it to be published.
As for Americans who are so assiduously
toady to foreign artists, we can only ex
press our pity. Fanny Ellsler laughed at
them; Dickens caricatuted them; Jenny
Liud bled them; and Kossuth has so far
presumed on their weakness as to hector
them.

DEAD CIIILU FOI IXD.
The body of a newly-born infant was found
on Tuesday afternoon, partially buried, im
mediately beside the Schuylkill al the west'
ern extremity of the Island in this Borough.
Attention was attracted to it by some dngs
that had collected at the spot and partly un"
j earthed the little corpse. On several persons
repairing to the place nnd raiding the body,
the spectacle it presented was most revolt
ing. Both Ihe feet and one arm had been
eaten off by Ihe clogs or hnga, and lh head
was also much disfigured. A jury of Inquest
was immediately summoned and several
witnesses from the houses close by where
the child was found, were heard. The body
was also examined by a physician, and pro.
nounced to be that of a child of mature
biith ; but on account of its accidental muti
lation, it was impossible lo determine whether
its death had been caused by natural or for
cible means, ll was supposed to have been
buried to conceal its birth. Miner's Journal,
