The New Hampshire Democratic

the principles long asserted by the

Thia is a pretty jpod record for
one day. Tbe Democrats all appear
pleased. Now let us hear from the
Republicans. Inter-Own.
SrsTon St. Clair of Indiana
County has introduced a bill into tbe
Senate to establish a new and uni
form fee bill for (Seers of counties
containing a population not exceeding
one hundred and fifty thousand. It
pri'poses a reduction on all fees now
allowed by law of twenty-Gve per
eut Why didn't tbe Senator in
clude tbe pay of Legislators in his
bill ? We observe that members of
both Slate aodNationul Legislatures,
when taken with economical fits, in
variably forget to include tbeir own
salaries in tbe proposed redaction.
Crime has increased so rapidly ia
tbis State that the penitentiaries at
rbiladelnbia and Pittsburgh will no
bnger accommodate all the criminals.
A bill has therefore been introduced
in the Senate, and reported favorably
for the building of an additional
penitentiary for tbe Middle district
embracing tbe counties of Somerset,
Fulton, Iiedford, Franklin, Adams,
Cumberland, Cameron, Rlair, Hunt
ingdon, Cambria, Clearfield, Clinton,
Union, Snyder, Dauphin, Perry,
Juniau, Cenire and Miillin. The
Legislature evidently believes the
population residing in this territory
so mornl and law abiding that a email
prison will answer every purpose,
and therefore propose to appropriate
but $ 100,01)0 for its erection. The
implied rotnp'iment is certainly a
flattering one.

It woald b; grojs heresy to doubt
that conciliation is "s gem of purest
ray serene." Just how the thing
works "way down South," may be
gathered from the following excerpts
from high Democratic authority.

of the Miaaisiippi D3mcra?y, I'f

When the repeal of the revolutionary,

it will catch tip and carry the popular sen
timent with it, from sealmra to seaboard.
From tbe land of those great and
good Democrats, Wade Ilampton and
Hamburg Butler comes up a no less
uncertain sound. On tbe lOih of
Dec. last J. R. Johnson (Rep.) was
elected a member of the South Caro
lina Legislature from Sumnter coun
ty, whereupon tbe Democrats carried
off some boxes containing the bulk of
tbe Republican votes, but the certiG
cate of election was given to the
Republicans. The result of this tlec
tion so inspired the editor of that
Democratic organ, the Sampler
WaU-Jima that be slopped over with
conciliation as follows:
We require, and demand in the name ol
our mortified Sumpter Democrats and our
justly indignant sister counties, a t boron ch

premature. Nothing ia known of

Tbe South has put forth and defend

They w ere put off till Priday, when tbey
came again, and were again put off to Sat

tlie ladies urged that her husband was a
religious man. On Saturday the President
ordered the release of the prisoners, and

Revenge.
CincAiio, Jan. 14. Hon. John
Buehler, State Senator from the Fifth
district of this State, a banker, and a
resident of this city, was mortally
Slabbed to-day by a Bjbeniun nam
ed Maurice Marso. Three wounds
were inflicted, in tbe face, the arm,
and tbe abdomen, rerpec.ively. In
the latter iuctance the knife, a long
and ugly blade commonly known as
a bowie, penetrated to tbe bill, and
it is thought this will produce death,
as vital portions were severed.
i be asasiuaiioo seems to have
resulted from a generous oct on Mr.
Buehler's part Some three years
ago he loaned Marso a sum of mon
ey, taking a mortgage on bis house
and lot at No. OO'J North Wood street
as security. On this loan Marso
paid no interest, and appears to have
come to look upon it as a present.
Mr. Buebler recently sold tbe mort
gage to a third party, who foreclosed
it, and ibis so enraged Marso that
be determined to kill him.
Marso stated to-night, in an in
terview wiih a press reporter, that
be ground his kaife lait night "with
tbe express determination ot murder
ing Buehler," and he addsd, "we
have not had tbe end of it yet. As

telegraphs from Giurgevo, as follows:
"The mortality among the Turkish
prisoners at Frateshti is fearful. The
station of Fratesbti is becoming a
terror to travelers between Bucharest
and the Danube. Even if there is
no'bing worse there than ordinary
typhus, the mortality evidenced by
the numerous graves in the plain
surrounding tbe prisoners' camp jus

I saw Russian soldiers digging huge

Hartford, Conn, January 16.
Tbe latest advices from tbe scene of
the railroad disaster last night, and
from places where the wounded
were taken.' place te number of dead
at tbirteea. I s po-sible more may
be found ia lb wreek.
Conductor T, M. Eimer gives tbe
description of the accident :
1 had been in tbe mail compart
ment in tbe baggage car, where I
lefc Mr. Jones, Superintendent, as
sorting tickets. I bad started to go
through the train, and bad got just
by tbe front door of the baggage
car, and was about to open it, when
I felt the rear end nettling, and heard
a loud crash. My band was almost
on tbe door-knob. Close by in tbe
tbe eorner or the car was a stove, in
which was a verry hot fire. My
first thought was to get away from
the fire so as not to be burned. Tbe
rear end of tbe car went down a lit
tle and settled, and tben tbe whole
car dropped down, with but very lit
tle pitching, oo one side and etrnck.
1 bad jumped back from the door,
and vas a few feet back clo&e to tbe
wLdow, when the car brought np.
Just as it struck, a heavy beam fell
down upon the roof nd came through,
striking me on the bead, knocking
me down and cutting me on the
temple. I was stunned by tbe blow,
but soon saw what the situation was.
There were three other men in the
car, all passengers, whom I did not
know. It was very dark in the car,
so that I could see nothing excepting
a streak of light which came through
tbe bole in tbe roof made by tbe
beam, and large enough for a man to
crawl tbrjugb. The other men saw
the opening and we tried to get out,
but lound we could not reach tbe
roof. Meanwhile tbe water was
coming into tbe car through tbe floor
and windows, and was rapidly ris
ing. It got np to a point above our
wastes aud stopped when we knew
tbe car had struck bottom, and tben
we felt safer. Tbere were no expres
sions of alarm by either of us. We
waited for the time being without
making auy effort to get out through
tbe hole, but when everything came
to a standstill we went to work to
rescue ourselves, which was accom
plished by luting one man up to the
roof, and after he got through he as
sisted another, aud then others were
helped out After getting out we
eat to the car behind the back of
the oue tbat was lying cornerways
out of which the passengers were
crawling through tbe windows. This
car was pitcbea down, and it appear
ed as if more of the passengers must
be jammed on the lower eud. Tbe
cries were heart reuding ot men aud
women, many of whom appeared
be suffering from extreme pain. Some
were crying piteoosly, "Ob don
step on me." ''Get off tor my legs are
broken." "Help op, do," and
such cries and appeals. We assisted
several ladies out, and got out one
young roan who was up to his eyes
iu water. After doing this I was so
thoroughly chilled through that 1 be
came uumb, and bad to give up.
Mr Elmer was about bis regular
business yesterday, and ran ou trains
back aud forth to Tariffville. II
wears a patch over the cut on tbe
temple.
Tbe bridge was built by A.
Bnggs A Co., Springfield, Mass..
December, 1875. It is a Ho we truss,
with two spans, each span being 163
feet long. I here seems to have beeu
nothing wrong with the structure
The limbers, where tbey were bro
ken off aud - splintered, are sound
The spans were long, but some of the
most experienced railroad men agree
that tbe accident was wholly caused
by tbe tremendous weight of two en
giues passiug over it at tbe same
time. Both certainly weighed sixty
tons, and possibly mote. One man
who stood at the depot in Tariffvil
as the train left tbere noticed us
make-up, and waned iu suspense
see whether it would pass over the
bridge safely, and, while be was
waitiug, heard ibe crash. Tbe sup
pusitiou is tbat tbe supporting irou
rods broke, causing the timbers
snap.
