THE COLLUIO OK THE CAMOEJI AD AT
LASTIl' RAILHO.IU. '
Ax Accockt mo . EvR-vmNase.
The community wai Marted on Saturday
night by tbo varied rumors of a fuarful colli
eion on this road. Tho fullowiuff account
wai obtained bj our roportor from ono of tbe
jiisseogors, sou we consider it reliable :
'l b regular afternoon eipresi train started
t a quarter after 4 o'clock from Cooper's
l'oiot, and was ronuing at a Tery rapid rate
tjf speed, and had reached a point about six
miles below Iladonfiold, and twelve miles be
low this city, when the passengers were alarm
ed by a violent concussion and surging to and
fro of ths cars. Our informant was. sented
with several friends on ihe very last seats of
the last car. The fores was so great that he
says, their seats were rocked violently and
wrusj crashed under them. Tho middle car
escaped without Injury. As wo jumped from
the enrs a sight was presented, oppuling tho
stoutest hearts. Two lurge locomotives, sev
eral freight or wood cars, the first passenger
cars, Under and boggngo car were piled, lit
erally one on top of the other, to a height of
thirty or forty feet. Soma of the inmates of
the first car crept out from the ruins, and
others were dragged ont, covered with their
own. blood or that of others who had been in
jured near them. Many or those uninjured
worked mnufully in relief of tho poor suffer
ers who were speedily carried among tho
bashes growing along the truck. The sight
was a very paiuful one. On either side the
poor fellows were lying, surrounded by per
sons endeuvoring to reoojinizo or assist them.
It was socu discovered thut the loss of life
was not so grent as we feared.
Incidents. The firf-t person we saw was
tho fireinnii, who30 body lay among the bush
cs, with the head almost severed by a long
ond deep gneh, from his shoulders. Tho en
gineer of the down truin, seeing that a colli
sion was inevitable, gave an alarm and jump,
ed cleur of the fulliug mass uronnd him, but
his Ureinan was caught amid them, and no
doubt was struck by a piece of irou from the
locomotive and thus killed Instantly. The
engineer picked him up and carried him to
the car which was epeed;!) lilted up for the
sufferers
Dounelly, the conductor of the express
train, wjs most terribly mangled ; his legs,
below his knees, were actually torn and mash,
ed into ribbons of flesh and muscles, lie
bore his agony with great fortitude, and
seemed mure anxious to kuow '"Who wan
blamed J" A scene occurred here thut brought
tears to every eye. The poor fellow hud his
wife uud children on tho truin Tor a trip to
the ocean. The poor woman was iu the third
car with her children, and, as she came near
the spot where her husband lay bleeding and
dying, unknown to her, she suddenly recog
nized him and threw her arms around his bo
dy, uud frantically entreated "My dear Wil
liam" to speak to her. Dr. I'itney, of Abse
com, whottf activity and kinduets to sullerers
entitle him to the warmest pruise, dressed his
wounds, and used till possible skill iu his ef
forts to savu him, but iu vaio, as he died be
fore we reached Camden.
The down way-train coming about an hour
bebiud ns, took all of us on board, the dead,
wounded and unharmed, and after several te
dious deljys, prudently made to avoid meet
ing the excursion to start down at 7 o'clock,
we reached Camden about hull-past eight o'
':1jcU. ...
The persons who were mostly seriously in
jured were ull in the front car, and fortuuato
iy all the ladies escaped.
Tie Caw. TLe decided opinion of ull at
the wreck w that it was entirely the fault
of the Conductor and Kugineer of tho up
train or wood train j indeed uo one there or
ut U.uldoulield seemed to think otherwise.
There is no doubt tho up traiu was behind
time afcording to the road time table, at
least twenty minutes, mid according to rule,
should have waited at tho last turn out below;
hut instead of doing this, camo on, when an
txpriss train was known to be coming dowu
t ie road ut a rapid rate. The Kngmeer of
tliii exmi ts train came on them iust ns we
pasted a curve, and even before the brakes
vere put down. The Conductor of the np
train dir.ggeured tinuiediutely utter the colli
so i, astlieio was a disposition among tho
irmie violent to Ijucu biui. 'h'.Ui'la. Ltd-
Tiir. Oi KA.v-Cr.ossiNO Tki.kuiui'ii. During
the unsuccessful attempt to ly t'nu cuble
ocross tho Atlantic before it broke, there was
an interruption for some time of tho communi
cation with the shore, which was afterwards
as misteiiotisly renewed. This was not ex
plained iu any of the reports famished from
the other side Liute-iiunt Urooke, of the
United Sfc.tes Navy, however, gives the fol
lowing explanation in tho National Intelligen
cer, wliicli muy be the real cause, though it is
singular if so.
The conducting wires broke; the gutta
peirha, stretching with the outer wires, drew
the biokeu ends apart, coutiuuty was then
interrupted. But whea that portion of tho
Cable approached the bottom it became slack.
" The cable will be desposited in waves upon
the bottom." Then the gutta percha reliev
e J of t'uo strain, by virtue of its elasticity con
tracting, drew the broken separated cuds of
the conducting wires tojether, and continuity
was re-established. This re-estiiblishment of
continuity is a striking proof of the fact thut
the conducting wires wero biokcn, while the
gutta percha remained unharmed. Had it not
been re-established tho interruption would
have beou generally attributed to tho ubrasion
of the gutta percha and the error of construc
tion would have remained unexposed.
We see, by tho latest intelligence from
Liverpool sent by tho Associated News
Agency, thut the attempt to lay the cable
bas beeu postponed till next year aud the
company mean to sell the cabla which failed
nnd hare one constructed three thousand
miles long.
The Moos. A recent discovery by tho
Astronomer Hansel, whose study of the
moon's motion continued for many years, has
established the fact that the centro of gravity
of the moon, instead of being like thut of the
earth, at the centre of figure, is beyoud that
centre and farther from the side next to the
earth than it is from the other sido by seven
ty-four miles. 1 he nearer side of the moon
therefor, is a vast expanded protuberance or
mountain, seventy-four miles high ; aud any
fluid whether air or water, would How down
wards from the nearer to the further side of
the moon, for aught we know, intelligent liv
irnr bourns may exist. The nearer sido of tho
moon cauuot be inhabited, ut least by beings
to whose exiteuce air and water are essential
as is the case with all terristrial animuls.
The late mathematician, Oausss, proposed as
a means of settling the question whether the
moon is inhabited, that a huge monument,
should be erectee ou the Steppes of Siberia,
as a signal to the intiauitants or toe moon,
in the hope tbat they might be induced to
erect a similar signal to apprise us of their
existence. The discovery of llausel shows
.-Ijjat such an experiment would be attended
with no success inasmuch as the inhabitants
of the moon, if there are any, beiug on the
further side, could oevor see a monument on
the earth.
Con-tract A wabdku. Tbo Secretary of
the Treasury, on the 2d inst., contracted with
Thos. Agnew, of Hultiinore, Md., for the
construction of the custom house ut Indian
opolis lud., at a cost of 98,083,79, being the
lowest bid.
Ths Lowest Bidders. The coutract for
the work of the Croton Aqueduct, New York
bas been given out to the lowest bidder. One

The original manuscript of Walter Scott's
Peveril of the Peak was latt'v sold ut auction

! Tub Work on tin Capital Extension.
The extension of the Capitol at Washington
is an extensive and magnificent scale. The
cost of tome of tbo items is given in the
Washington Union. The windows of the
north and south front! 81,9u0 each. The
marble workmanship on each of 'the eastern
front doorways $4,076. The two figures of
stationary to be placed over each door are
estimated at $6,260. The door bronte, and
bearing bas-relief of designs illustrative of
American history, will cost $13,200 for each
wing. They are designed by Crawford. It
is the intentiou to have one executed at Mu
nich, and the other, for the promotion of
American art, in this country. The door
opening from the old hall of the House of
Uepresentntfves into the corridor lending to
tho new hall will also be of bronze, bearing
bas-relief designs illustrative of American
history and will it is estimated, cost $16,416
designed by Randolph lingers. The sta
tuary intended for the eastern pediment of
the north wing of the Capitol, designed and
modeled by Mr. Crawford, it is estimated will
cost $40,260. For tbe design and model
ortbeStntae or Liberty, intended to surmount
the uew dome, of the Capitol, Mr. Crawford
is to receivf 3)00, the Indian Girl $429, and
the mnntel piece for the Senate reception
room $500.
Tub Ciiinksr Sugar; Cam-:. A gentleman
in New York bas sent tho editor of the I'ost
a samiilo of very good brandy, made from the
syrup of the new sugar plant, the Sorgho, or
Cninese sugar-cane, lie says it costs about
30 ceuts per gallon to produce, and is worth
iu the market from $1 to $'i per gullon, oc
cording to quality. In a note he says t
1 lie uiunulucture of spirit from the sorgho
may row be carried on by our farmers iu the
winter t e:i.-on, when there is no ether occupa
tion for tlicm, at the rule of u gallon of fer
mented svrup. This will find reudy sale ut
e rectifier's, who will turn it into alcohol
for enmphene aud other purposes. The
quantity of ulcohol now need for purposes of
illumination alone, to say nothing of varnish
es, chloroform und medicinal extracts, is cuor
ninu., nnd was beginning to have a serious
effect on the price of bieud, owing to the
nhoiesalo destruction of the careuls required
to produce it. Now, however, we have found
a substitute, which besides supplying syrup
aud alchohol, will also yield from the same
crop a lurge amount of forage uud grain for
the latumng ot stock.
Pkstcrction of a Susitxsox IJripoe. The
destruction of tho suspension bridgo over the
Deetnrdies canal at Hamilton C. V., has ul-
reaily been mentioned. The disaster occur
red on the 28th ult., during a violent thunder
storm. A gust of wind caused the guys to
part and the bridge, being as it were lifted up
in the centre was turned upside down and
descended with a crash, and borne by the
wind, fell some fifty feet nearer the lake than
it would have dono from the force of gravity
alone. The structure was 230 feet above
the level of the water. It was built by the
Great Western Railwny Company, for the
Canal Company but the latter refused to ac
cept it, on the ground that it was utt in a
sale condition.

GREAT improvements for 18.r7. This Ma
cliine was nut in sucessful operation in 1H33
and cnnltnued to be the only Reaping and Mow
ing Machine in the World, of any practical value
up to 184S twelve years after iis introduction.
Other Keepers are now offered with glowing ad
vertisements, Certificates. Diplomas, Gold and
Silver Medals, Ac. But the Farmer in search
of the best Reaper, and not posted in the matter,
had better seo a lilile further.
If there is any value in 24 years experience
in building Keepers, and using them in the har
vest field, and in the improvements made during
that long period, OBED HUSSEV.the Father
of Keepers, can claim it All who are satisfied
with the Best fieaper and Mower, aan be sup
plied by sending their orders early in the season,
as the crops indieate a large demand, and we can
not have over 200 Ready for the vast harvest
of I8f7. We guarantee that this Reaper and
Mower can not be beaten on fair trial by any
other Reaper that may be brought into the harvest
fields in 1RA7. and we also insure it to be the
strongest and most durable machine in use. We
would respectfully invite Farmers to examine
the machine thoroughly before purchasing, and
satisfy themselves of its superiority over all
others.
During the last 'our years, the euliorrihers have
sold between SOD and 600 of these Machines, to
the best ond most succetsful Farmers in Montour,
Union and the neighboring counties, (whose
names are too numerous to insert) to whom we
respectfully refer.
