The sUtemcnt of the public debt
published by the U. S. Treasurer on
the first day of October, shows that
during the month of September near
ly eleven millions ($11,000,000) of
our national debt was paid. Is not
this fact a more powerful argument in
behalf of the election Gen. Grant,
than all the speeches that were made
during tho month?
Tbe New York World declares
that though supporting Mr. Greeley
it should never be willing to trust the
"Financial policy to bis uncontrolled
guidance." "We have no faith," it
says, "in bis financial wisdom, and
we never had." And that is the
kind of left-handed support the old
man is receiving on all sides. No
wonder there is no enthusiasm for,

For our own part, w bile we deny
the right of slaveholders to bold
slaves against the will of tbe latter,
we cannot see bow twenty millions of
eople can rightfully bold ten or even
Jive, States in a detested union with
them, by military force.
Let the cotton States, or any six or
more States, say, unequivocally, 'We
want to get out of the Union,' and
propose to effect their end peaceably
and inoffensively, and we will do ovr
lest to help them out not that we
want them to go ; but that we loathe
the idea of compelling them to stay."

I demand that there shall be a
fair, ojen, free discussion before the
Southern people, and an honest,
unterrified, unconstrained vote, and
if they approve if the people of the
South say they want disunion, I will
consent to it (Cheers.)
Carl Schurr said in Cincinnati on
May 8: "I think the convention
would make a fatal error in nomina
ting Horace Greeley for the Presiden
cy. Instead of being the strongest
candidate that can be put forward, I
regard bim as the weakest It is not
possible for bim to wiu the German
rote. He has been a life-long tem
perance man, and his name bas been
associated with the most ultra and
unreasonable acts of which they
have been guilty. He is, tbrreforo,
most objectionable. Tbe Liberal
ticket cannot be elected without Ohio
and Illinois. Neither of these States
can be carried by Mr. Greeley. I
have known Mr. Greeley for fifteen
years, and our relations during that
time have been of the most friendly
character. But be is not by nature
or by education suitable to fill the
Presidential office. His lack of dig
nitr, his idiosyncracies, his crotchets,
eminently unfit him for appropriately-
occupying so high and honorable a
position."

TIEVEORtilA ELECTION.
The Democratic journals arc crow
ing hugely over the result of the
election in Georgia last week, claim
ing the success of their ticket by a
majority of fifty thousand. In 18C8
Georgia gave Seymour a majority of
45.G88. How this majority was ob
tained is briefly told in a despatch
from Jons II. Hale, of Savannah,
Chairman of the Republican Commit
tee, to Judge Edmonds, of Washing
ton. Mr. Hale says tbat in the city
of Savannah, "The Greeley party
bad full control of all the polls. The
managers were all Democrats, and
disregarded the provisions of the law,
and would not allow Republicans en
titled by law to cast their rotes. Af
ter attempting to rote for several
hours they abandoned the polls and
went borne. Over two thousand Pus
publican voters were deprived of their
right to vote. The good behavior of
the colored men only prevented seri
ous trouble. Col. E. Bryant, Dep
uty Collector of Customs, was seri
ously assaulted by plug-uglies, who
bad leen appointed as special deputy
sheriffs. A great outrage upon the
rights of citiiens has been perpetrat
ed. Tbe polls were surrounded by a
large body of police, armed with mus
kets, sabres and clubs. They patroll
ed the streets mounted. This morn
ing the roads leading to the city were
picketed and voters from the country
were driven back and not allowed to
come to the city to vote. Only four vot
ing places were provided for cigbttLou
sand voters in the county, and these
all in one building.
THE BEELET EKCAFADE.
It is not to be wondered at that the
Greeley managers at tbe Liberal head
quarters in New York city are dis
satisfied with their candidate's speech
es on bis Western tour, and have sent
bim peremptory messages to keep qui
et until after tbe election. If any
thing could drive political schemers
mad, it mast be the damaging gar
rulity of a vain old man who, having
broke away from bis leading strings,
is trying to tell the pcojJe what he
knows about governing the country,
in tbe fond anticipation that be can
win votes for Limself. ' But their can
didate bas got loose, and there is no
Lelp for it He is very headstrong,
and thinks he knows better than any
body else what to say, as he demon
strated wben be replied to one of bis
traveling keepers, Mr. Randolph, of
New Jersey, who undertook to ad-j
know my own opinions bettor than
anylody tlsc." It is very probable
that be m rigbt upon that point, for
Lcn a nun cbangea hi opinions
every twenty-four boura it ia hardly
possible that bi mort intimate asso
ciate tibould bo very well ported an
to what be thinla. Mr. Greeley Las
given up about everything be ever
professed in tbe way of a political
opinion, whether good or bad, and
about all be has left is bis prewnt
conviction tbat Jeff Paris and a few
other traitors ought to be made eligi
ble to office, under the plea of univer
sal amnesty. And for this be would
tarn the country upside down and
surrender the Government to the
Tammany and Ku Klux combination
of financial and political "harpers.
lie compromised his protection doc
trine to get bis nomination, and stands
to-day before the country without an
idea upon tbe tariff nibjert which he
dare avow. In lieu of any opinion
as to that matter, his present absurd
proposition is, to refer the whole sub
ject to the bcparate Congressional dis
tricts ; which, if it has any meaning
at ail, is simply a proposal to let each
district mako. a tariff to suit itself.
This would be dcccntralizatipn and
local self-government in a superlative
degree ! Next, Mr. Greeley surren
ders bis pet doctrine of secession,
and tbat so suddenly and inconsist
ently that the telegraph wire has
scarcely ceased to vibrate with bis
pro-secession speech at Pittsburgh
when his anti-secession disclaimer at
Cincinnati is made. This red-hot
doctrine of rebellion is taken up and
laid down by Mr. Greeley, as occa
sion serves, with all the ease and dex
terity of an accomplished mounte
bank. It in with him a mere juggling
implement, to be caressed or repelled
as it may win votes for bim South or
North. lie sees nothing dangerous
or alarming in secession, and is ready,
as he has publicly avowed, to take
its devotees back into puWic confi
dence without any profession of pen
itence on their part Neither does he
make an avowal of penitence for h im
sclf for having heretofore advocated
that pernicious heresy, and by that
advocacy lured thousands of well
meaning Southerners into rebellion.
No ; be is simply willing to adjourn
the doctrine now, as not compatible
with the present state of affairs, and
not to be raised again until the South
ern or some other States shall by a
majority vote determine to secede,
In such an event as that, he holds
himself free to revive his old doctrine
should he see fit ; for in his Cincinna
ti disclaimer it will be noticed that he
only denies that he has "a present
belief, a present conviction tha t any
State has a right to dissolve this
Union at its own pleasure."
The Cincinnati movement started
out with a bold avowal of civil ser
vice reform as one of its thief objects.
It, however, promptly gave the false
hood to that pretense by putting in
nomination one of the most persistent
office seekers and offieo traders, and
one of the most inveterate advocates
of the spoils' doctrine, that could be
found in the whole country. But
Greeley feared that, notwithstanding
his well known fame as a life long
champion of the spoils doctrine, his
hybrid followers might take the plat
form declaration as serious, and hasti
ly conclude that, with bim, partisan
service would not be made tbe meas
ure of official reward. Tbcrctore, to
prevent and correct misapprehension
upon this point, 60 vital to the suc
cess of his campaign, he took the
very earliest occasion to announce,
as he did in bis Portland speech, as
before quoted in 27ic Globe, that all
who worked for bis election should
be considered in the distribution of
government patronage. This bold
and desperate offer of the spoils of
victory for help sunk the civil service
plank of his platform a thousand fath
oms below the service, and was bail
ed by "the party of principles'' with
yells of frantic joy. '
Once Mr. Greeley made much pro
fession of regard for loyality to the
flag, but the exigencies of partisan
warfare have driven him to part with
even this common badge of patriot
ism. With bim loyality is no longer
a claim to public confidence, and in
the interest of his secession friends
he bravely denounces the battle scarr
ed defenders of their country as dis
seminators of hatred and revenge, lie
cause they dared to come together in
peaceful array at Pittsburgh, on the
anniversary of one of their proudcBt
victories of tbe Union cause, and de
clare their attachment for and confi
dence in the hero of the war. So,
too,' has the peripatetic candidate
given up his clamor for immediate re
sumption of specie payments, seeing
that it might damage bis chances for
election, and now goes for opeuing
the treasury vaults and turning all
the gold loose, eo that the government
will have nothing with which to re
sume. In lieu of enforcing the pro
found aphorism that "the shortest
way to resume is to resume," posting
a notice on the treasury door tbat the
government bas resumed, be now
proposes to secure by bis own elec
tion the rigbt of ihc people to reflect
and cogitate and think about bow and
when to resume. ... . :
So much for Mr. Greeley's swinging
-'round the circle, and for bis efforts
to box tbe compass backwards. His
stock in trade is rnnning low, and his
fresh additions, such as tho exploded
humbug of the Credit Mobilier, can
not prove very attractive, even to the
unsophisticated fanners of Indiana.
Like an escaped locomotive, his keep
ers may rest assured Lc will step
when be gets out of steam, whether
be is on tbe track or upset in a ditch.

General Grant Habits.
I From the RochcMcr Democrat, September 27.
We are permitted to publish the
following letter from the widely
known philanthropist and organizer of
the Christain Commission, which did
such human service during tho war
George II. Stuart Miss Guernsey is
a highly esteemed lady of this city,
who enjoys the personal acquaintance
of Mr. Stuart, and knew that that
gentleman was thoroughly informed
with regard to the personal habits of
President Grant Hence she address
ed a note to him and received this
reply :
Philadelphia, September 25, 1872
Dear Miss Girnsey In reply to
your communication, in which you
say "it is commonly reported here
that the President is in the habit of
getting stupidly drunk every day. I
know you are well acquainted with
him and should be glad to have the
story contradicted on good authority,
I have to say that since General
Grant became commander of the
American army, and during his Pres
idency, I have had frequent opportu
nities of seeing bim at the front, in
social intercourse, at dinner table, in
tbe White House and elsewhere, and
have never seen him "stupidly druhk,
or under the influence of liquor in
any sense of that phrase. So far as
my observation enabled me to judge,
the statements which have been so
freely circulated about President
Grant's habits arc wholly without
foundation, and a base slander upon
the character of one to whom tbe
country owes a debt of gratitude
which can never bo paid. In No
vember next the Keystone State will
record her verdict against tho per
sonal calumnies by giving Grant her
electoral vote by a majority of thirty
or forty thousand.

MI LEST OBATOU.
A lne Tketa far Klaleala.
It is very well known the Presi
dent does not possess what is vulgar
ly called "the gift of gab." He can
not make an extemporary speech, nor,
we believe, a speech of any kind.
His life was snown tnat no can race a
hostile force, when bullets and can
non balls are flying about like bail.
with perfect coolness and selfposses-
sion : but an array or upturned races,
though ever so friendly, puts bim out
of himself; be hesitates, stammers.
and, finally, retires as dumb as an oys
ter. There is many a shallow-pated,
empty-hearted fellow, who bas never
done a solitary thing to redeem bis
life from perfect contempt, who will
talk on his feet by the hour, on al
most any subject; and yet this silent,
quiet soldier of ours, who has per
formed acbievemcnts tbat will lire by
the side of the most renowned in his
tory, is comparatively tongueless. '
It is a prrcat convenience ana some
times a pleasure, to others as well as
to ourselves, to bo able to improvise

able to do it, much less a disqnalifi-1

cation or disgrace. Some of tbamoet
intellectual and cultivated men that
the world has ever known, have
shared the inability with less gifted
mortals. Our most philosophical
and learned President, Jefferson,
whose writings are regarded as mod
ele, changed the message of the Ex
ecutive to Congress, from oral into
written discourses, because of bis
aversion to the former; while our
most active and energetic President
Jackson, was almost as incapable of
making a speech as President Grant
is. The most copious and graceful
among our old authors, Washington
Irving, could scarcely deliver an ordin
ary dinner toast with composure.
Hawthorne, whom a high critical au
thority pronounces the best writer
of English that ever lived, would run
away rather than face tho common
est audienco, and ono of our most il
lustrious poets makes it the condition
of his attending a public dinner that
he shall not be called upon to say a
word. Artists, like literary men, are
supposed to havo some degree of
nous, but who that has been invited
to ono of their symposia cannot recall
some pitiable sight, when even the
best among them bas been got upon
his legs.
Eloquence is charming, and trie luc-
ulty of easy and graceful uttcranco to
bo desired by all men, just as cscry
woman ought to wish to sing with ex

who think it immense fun to ridicule
General Grant's want of oratorical
ability? How keen must be their
sense of humor, how delicate their
preception of the nature of a joke, and
how just, too, their appreciation of
the merits and demerits of human
character 1 Tho funny creatures, we
have no doubt, laugh to splitting
wben they encounter a bald-headed
old gentleman, and would die of a
guffaw should they see an armless
veteran in the streets. X. Y. Pout.

A few days ago Thomas J. Cray-

pigs were not yet old cnougn to leave

In Governor Wells' great speech,
made in Petersburg, after comment
ing on Mayor Kellcy's indorsement
of the Ko Klux organization, he read
the following extract from the May
or's speech, made at Petersburg on
Wednesday night:
" What shall 1 say or the dummy
driving bis horse along the Jersey
beach and calling himself President t"
I know, said the Governor, .Mayor
Eelley as an accomplished scholar ; a
gentleman noted for his refinement
and culture ; ordinarily courteous and
polite. I am surprised that be, of all
men, the Chief Magistrate of the
queenly City of Richmond, who
knows 60 well what decent respect
requires, should have been betrayed
into the use of such grossly improper
languagnc, but as be asked the ques
tion, I answer : '
Who was tho matchless hero of
Donclson, Sbiloh and Vicksburg ?
" The dummy who drives his horse
along the Jersey beach 1"
Who was it that led 100,000 he
roes to victory over Lee and bis be
fore unconqucrcd army from the Rapi
dan to the Wilderness -to the J amcs,
to Petersburg, to Richmond and the
old apple tree at Appomattox 7
It was "the dummy driving bis
horse along the Jersey beach 1" :
Who was it that planned, that
flanked, that fought, that fheHcd.that
charged at Steadnian, at Fort Hell
and Port Damnation ?
It was "tho dummv driving bis
horse along tho Jersey leach !"
ho was it that seized the tiger
secession by the throat, and, holding
bim there, said to those who cavilled,
to thoso who hoped and those who
feared, "I'll fight it out tn this lino if
it takes all summer: '
It was "the dummy driving bis
horse along ti c Jersey beach I
Who was it, after the victory was
won and the Union safe, said to Lee
and tho conquered army, whose, cour
age, honor and manhood ho respect
ed, "Keturn to your homes, and rou
shall not bo disturbed by the United
States authorities so long as you 'ob
serve your parole and obey the laws
of the place where you reside 7"
It was "the dummy driving bis
horse along the Jersey beach !' ,
Y no was it that said to Lee, "Let
the soldiers of your army who own
tho horses in their thargo takn them
home w ith them, for they will need
them for their spring plowing and
other farm work ?"
It was "the dummy driving his
horse along the Jersey beach!''
W ho was it when Leo, ise and
other Confederate Generals were in
dicted by a Virginia Grand Jury said
"The ofheers and men paroled at Ap

dictates that we should observe the
condition of that Convention V,

It was "the dummy driving his

Who was it that restored Virginia,
reclad her in the full, bright, shining
garb of a sovereign State, and now
calm and serene, unangercd, patient
and faithful, dares, unmindful of the
threats, the abuse, and the living
slanders heaped upon him, to do bis
duty alike to friend and foe, to God,
bis country aud himself ?
It is "the dummy driving his
horse along the Jersey beach !''
Who is it that will live in the
hearts of his countrymen revered at
home and abroad, the great soldier,
tho modest citizen, and the faithful
public servant, unostentatious, unas
suming, brave, without ambition, for
bearing, resolute in doing what he
deems right, but never offensive in as
serting himself as soldier, Generator
chief for a thousand years after his
poor dotractors have gone down to a
forgotten grave : '
It is "the dummy driving his burse
along the Jersey beach !''
No words can give any adequate
description of tho dramatic effect and
tremendous power of the reply. Iho
voice of the speaker was as clear as a
bell, and was heard by every man of
the 3,000 persons present ami might
have been heard by 20,000. As of
ten as be commenced the refrain, "It
is the dummy," the audience arose,
shouted, cheered, laughed and wept
alternately. Such an effect has rare
ly ever been produced on a mass of
)cople. It seemed an Inspiration.
Ihe effect of that meeting will never
be forgotten.
Horrible Dratb.
A frightful accident occurred at the
iron mills of Preston, Graff & Co., on
the Connellsvillc Railroad just above
the upper Monongahela bridge yestcr
da'. A man named Joseph Rartel
w as standing . on the railroad track
looking at the operations going on in
the mill, when the West Newton ac
commodation train, due here at 8:20,
came along and striking him threw
him on the fly-wheel, where he was
carried round and then flung into the
pit horribly mangled and crushed.
When picked up he was dead, but it
is not known, nor perhaps never will
be, whether he was killed by the lo
comotive or. the evolutions of the fly
wheel. Coroner West, on being no
tified, summoued a jury and proceed
ed to hold an inquest The employ
ees of the mill who were examined,
testified that tho train was running at
the rate of eight often miles an hour,
and that no bell was rung or whistle
blown to signify its approach. In or
der to obtain the testimony of the
railroad attachees on the train, the
inquest was postponed until this even
ing at seven o'clock. 1 he deceased
was an engineer by profession, and
resit'es, when at home, at Clear
Spi:ngs, Cuinlerland county, Mary

TERRIBLE FIBE IS I.St I RIAI-
The Place in I lninex.
Mapkip, October 3. A terrible
fire occurred last evening in the town
of Escurial, twenty-four miles north
west of this city. A thunder storm
which had been threatening during
the afternoon broke violently in the
evening, accompanied by vivid
flashes of lightning. The Palace of
Escurial was struck by a bolt, imme
diately setting it on fire. The flames
quickly spread through tho buildings,
and the Royal Library, containing
thousands of volumes of great value,
was soon one sheet of flame.' The
palace itself seemed doomed to des
truction. Flames were issuing from
the windows and other parts of the
building, and dense volumes of smoke
filling the halls and entrances, made
all attempts at rescuing the paintings
and other valuables fruitless. The
splendid gallery of paintings, the col
lection of ages was threatened with
destruction. The fire was soon com
municated to the church or monastery
adjoining the place which at : latest
reports was also in imminent danger
of being destroyed. Owing to the
strong wind the fire progressed with
fearful rapidity, flames occasionally
shooting to a great height and light
ing up tha surrounding darkness.
Shortly after the fire broke out a des
patch was sent to the King's palace
in this city, informing His Majesty of
the occurrence. He immediately dis
patched a brigade of firemen with all
the necessary apparatus to Escurial
and followed quickly in person. ' The
news caused great excitement in
Madrid, and many have gone to the
scene of the fire. At midnight the
fire was raging with unabated fury.
An immense crowd of excited citizens
were congregated in tho vicinity, all
actively exerting themselves to save
the building from destruction. The
appliances for fighting the conflagra
tion were meagre and unserviceable.
The arrival of the King's firemen was
momentarily expected.

San Francisco, Octolier 2. The
steamer China arrived at eight o'clock
this morning. She left Hong Kong
on the 27th of August, and Yokohama
September 7. Among tho passengers
are twenty-nino of tho officers and
men of the America.- Early Satur
day morning, tho 24th of August, the
America arrived at Yokohama, and
during tho day landed all the passen
gers and cargo for the port, and trans
ferred for tho Shanghai branch steam
er for North China. There remained
on board tho officers and crew, two
first-class passengers and one hun
dred and seventy-five Chinese for
Hug Kong. At 11 at night the fire
was discovered, and it burned till the
afternoon of Sunday. The vessel
was towed out of the way of the ship
ping and sunk. ' Three Americans,
fifty nine Chinamen besides Japanese
lost their lives. There was $200,000
in treasure and light freight on board.
The ship had been coaling during the
day. At ten it was reported all safe
and the officers retired. A little be
fore eleven the stewnrdesssmelt some
thing burning, and smoke was dis
covered rising from tho freight deck
below the ladie.9' saloon. Tbe alarm
was sounded and Captain Doanc, who
was first in the saloon with tho hose,
was driven back by the smoke, when,
with a sudden and furious roar, the
flames burst forth, deciding the fate
of the ship. The smoke prevented
tho flooding of the magazine, and at
tention was directed to saving the
passengers. The Chinamen were
aroused and the ladder gave way,
precipitating them in to water. Sever
al unsuccessful attempts were made
to sink tno burning ship by shots
from the war vessels.
A court of inquiry was convened
August 31st, Consul Shephard pre
siding, assisted by Minister DcLong,
and Captains Shireley and Perry.
After hearing the evidence it was
found that the fire apparatus was not
in good working order. The time
that elapsed before the stream was
started denoted want of preparation
or tardiness in tho engineer's depart
ment. If steam to the amount of
twenty pounds had been on tho don
key boiler at the time the alarm was
given first, and proper expedition
used in working it. the fire might
have been extinguished and the ship
saved. Praiso was justly due the
officers and crew for their gallantry
and perseverance. The court was
convinced that the fire was tho result
of intention, not of accident. The in
ducement may have been antipathy
toward the steamship company or of
ficers, or the fact that the Chinese pas
sengers were supplied largo sums of
inonev.
Winder's Infamona Order.
When it was thought that the I. n

villc in its march through Georgia,
General W. S, Winder issued the fol
lowing order:

By order of John n. Winder, Brig
adier General. V . S. V inder,
Assistant Adjutant General.
This order was too barbarous even
for Southern men, and one of them
called upon Winder and remonstra
ted with him on the ground of his in
humanity. "Sir," replied Winder,
"I will kill the last d d Yankee in
me siocKaue ueiorc Herman or
Kilpatrick shall release thoni. God
damn my soul if I would not rather
see those twenty thousand scoundrels
bloicn to hell than go io heaven
myself."
Winder is a supporter of Horace
Greeley for President, and Horace
is anxious to "reconcile" with the
scoundrel.
The Virginia Bridge.
We have the following facts from a
gentleman who recently visited the
Natural Bridge: On passing into
tbe gorgo below the bridge by the
usual route, he was surprised to find
the bed of tho stream (Cedar Creek)
dry, unsightly. Tho keeper of the
hotel statod that about two weeks be
fore, the creek suddenly disapjeared
from under the bridge, and our in
formant, on following up the gorge,
found tho stream pouring down into
the earth and seeking some unknown
channel beneath. On a careful ex
amination three leaks were found
the largest being through a fissure, or
"fault," in the limestone leil of the
stream.
These the visitor partiullv stopped
up in a few minutes, and sent a scanty
stream on its way to the bridge.
Similar facts were revealed by a
further examination, and the conclu
sion is inevitable ttiat the rocky
substratum of these limestone hills is
thoroughly honey-combed by the
action of water. 1 he conclusion is
further sustained by the fresh dis
covery of caves, some of them of
considerable extent, in the immediate
vicinity of the bridge. Some fine
stalactites from one of these caves
are exhibited at the hotel.

A rieadUb) Crlaa.
The attempt, only partially succe.-s-ful,
to wreck the Cincinnati express
train, that left this city on Monday
evening last for Philadelphia, has
been investigated by a Coroner's in
quest, and a scheme of villainy re
vealed that is almost unparalleled in
tho annals of crime. The scene of
the affair was an embankment sixty
feet high near Steamboat station,
twenty-three miles from Philadel
phia, on the short turn of a curve.
The bolt3 holding the rails to tho ties
had been drawn, and the rails forced
apart by bending until they were six
inches out of gauge, and a gap of
nineteen inches existed between the
ends. The rail w-as then wedged up
so that tho wheel would strike the
end with full force, throw the train
from the track, and send it whirling
down the embankment. The plan
seem to have been deliberately de
vised and executed. Such was the
condition of the track, when at half
past two o'clock Tuesday morning,
the Cincinnati express came along at
tho rato of twenty-five or thirty
mile an hour. ! The rest of the story
is told by a reporter as follows :
"When right; on the sharp curve,
tho train gave an upward leap, in
stantly followed by the sudden check
from the air brake that showed
Samuel Keller, the engineer, and
Philip Cline, tho fireman, were on
the alert and wide-awake. After dis
coveries showed that while their
promptness saved the train and lives
of sixty-four passengers, it had not
availed to save their own. The train
came to a sudden stop and the af
frighted passengers, starting for the
doors, were quieted by Conductor
Stackhouse saying, "The danger is
over, whatever it is." A visit to the
front of the train and the erej ;nv

being visible ; but from the depth of j
a ravine in some places one hundred!
feet below the level of the road, but
at that particular spot sixty feet, a
tongue of flame and the hissing of
escaping steam ad
dedto the horrors
of the scene. The engino had gone
down me ravine anu struc-K n large !
tree near the upper edge, severing it j Chicago, October 1. Most of the
around and giving a swing to the two j lumber fleets have arrived. A nurn
express cars behind it that snapped her of schooners had their head can

and left them with their precious part of their lumber. Tho schooner
freight safe, but standing out on the ! Lavinia had her foresail split and
verv brink of destruction. All the! lost her deck load, also her small
small trees on the embankment were ! boat. The schooner Northern Belle
swept away by the shock. Nothing! had her mainsail split. The bark
could be seen of the engineer and ; Emeline had her jiUxKirn carried
urenian, nui sea run orougnt them to

the wrecked engine. They were
tureiuii n-iii.juu, ivvuer, -wuueven,
bono iu bis body broken) from hi
neath the track ; Cline, headless and
terribly mangled, from underneath
the grate-bars of the engine. The
employers, after taking precautions to
prevent a collision from cast or west
bound trains, examined the locality,
and were horrified at the deliberate
attempt made to send into eternity
unprepared a train-load of passengers,
whose thoughts were only of home
and kindred."
The tools used by thtf desperate
villians were louud near the misplac -
ed rail. The verdict of the coroner's
jury declares that the accident was
the result of a criminal design on the
part of some parties to them un
known, to throw the train from the
track, the rails being forced apart and
blocked up so as to render it inevita
ble. . What is remarkable about the affair
is tnat a waicuman passed over tnc ihe fore and aft schooner Ironsides
curve only a few moments before the was caught out in the gale on Sun
train was due, and found every thing day and" narrowly escaped founder
