A few minutes alter twelve o clock yes terday morning engine 730, drawing ex press train o. 1, eastbound on the Pitts burgh division of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, came dashing at tbe rate ot fully thirty five miles an hour around a curve, three miles west of Confluence, and sixty nine mile west of this city, when the en rineer. 8. F. Pritchard. saw just ahead i larre piece -t rock that bad rolled down the S'de ol the mountain on to the track. (juick as thought he sprang from his seat. without relaxing bis hold on the throttle. ammed it shut and put on the air-brakes. The next instant the engine went crashing and grinding ever the rock, was thrown from the track and turned over aud over. stripping it of its machinery and crushing everything about it that would break. The tender also was broken up, but the sudden stoppage did no other damage to the bag gage and ladies'sleepingcars composing the train, than to badiy spring '.heir plauorms. 2o one on the train was hurt, but on in vestigation it was found that the engineer. tr. l'ritchard, bad been killed, and the fireman, J. W. .Flaherty, of Confluence, had three ribs breken and was very badly bruised, though probably not seriously hurt. Two half-grown boys, tramps, one named McGraw, of Baltimore, and the other named Boyle, of Pittsburgh, were riding on the front platform of the bag gage car, but their presence was unknown until tbe accident. Boyle was instantly killed, but McGraw escaped with a few scratches. He could tell little of his com panion, whom he aaid he bad known for only a tew days. Tbe fireman is a young unmarried man. Unless he has received internal injuries not known he will soon recover. The name of the engineer of the ill fated locomotive deserves to be embalmed in verse and story, and bis sad death should cause universal sorrow and sym pathy, for the world loses much when it loses such men as "Benny" Pritchard, as he was familiarly called. When the horror-stricken trainmen and passenger; reached the battered wreck of what had a moment before teen a splendid picoe ot machinery, almost endowed with life, the manly form of the brave engineer was found standing erect, as if his engine was running smoothly over the rails. One hand grasped the throttle and the other the handle of the air-brake valve with a clutch that could not be loosed. His lips were pressed closely together and his face wore a determined but anx ious look, that alas, was never to change, lor penetrating bis side was the cold, cruel polished iron handle of the "reverse bar." The engine ia turning over had pressed him against the bar and he bad died in stantly and peacefully died at his post ol duty died that men might live ! othinc is known of his thoughts or actions after discovering the rock on which hij ouick brain told him be or al others on the train must come to their death, lie laid noth ing, hut simply sprang from bis seat to his Spartan duty and to his death ! This the fireman, his only companion, saw, but no more, as in an instant he himself was hurled into the air. That the engineer's action was successful in putting on the air-brakes is known, lor it saved the train from wreck and its sleeping human freight from death. Whether he succeeded in throwing back tbe reverse bar is not known, for though it was not reversed when the crath was over it might nave been before. It is probable, however, that the hero saw that all he could do in the b-ief moment, between tbe discovery and the collision was to close the throttle and hold the air yalve opep long enough to ensure the pat ent brakes a full supply of condensed air, that, thanks to the noble man at tbe throt tle, did iu work faithfully. & F. Pritch ard was a young unmarried man, but an engineer of experience, skill, and, as his devoted sacrifice shows, of coolness, brav ery and solf-torgeUulneta. He was the son of Major Pritchard. of Connellsville, who, and the young man's stricken moth er, may have their grief softened by the memory of the bright name their brave son leaves behind him. lutiouary soldiers who are known lobe interred here : Jacob Hush, Oliver Drake, Geo. Beelcr, Jacob 'I iihue. Soldiers ol the late war Interred here Ross Hush, Itoas Hyatt, J. Moon, P. Len hart. A. AuscL Foster Younkin. Unfortunately the majority of soldiers ot Turkey!oot, who lost their lives in tbe services were never brought home, their remains being lelt on the battle field. It is to be hoped that the good people of Turkeyfoot will never forget this assem bling 4f themselves together every 80th of May. While we were looking over this ceme tcry, which is more than a century old, and by tbe way has become very much crewded. we could but think ot the many weary feet, sad hearts and sorrow lul eyes mat nave gone lrom this hatiowcu spot oi ground alter viewing for the last time all that is mortal of loved ones who have gone on before. We cannot refrain from reminding tbe citizens ot this vicinity of the necessity ot laying out a new cemetery at tne Jersey church, and that there be more pains tak en in keeping the old ene in repairs. W think there is nothing that would convince a stranger as to tbe refinement and finer feelings of a community man tne way tney annoint the city of the dead. The Tur key fool church.betler known as the Jersey church, has the honor of being the oldest church organization in Somerset county has been a centre tor church going jieopie for over a century. There are many legends find anecdotes which tradition has hauded down since the first settlement, that would be interesting to the community if properly written up before they are lost to history. .11 AC Cornkh Stoxb Latixo. May 22nd, (Ascension Day) was a memorable day for Comp s church. It was the day appointed lor the laying ot tbe corner stone tor a new cnurcu em flee in Somerset county, to which Mr Samuel Cetnp, in his last will, bequeathed 1,000. to be used for the benefit of the Lutheran and Kelormed congregations, worshipping at this place. At the ap pointed hour a large number of people were assembled; aud after the introducto ry services a well prepared sermon was preached by Iter. 31. F. Pfahler. (Luther an) from tbe text, I Cor. 3d cbap. 11th v., followed by a German discourse by me writer, from Zac 13 chap., l r. Aller nearly S200 more funds were cured, the corner-stone laying proper, was attended to, by the writer, both ministers having placed their right hand on the cor ner-stone, during the act ot me consecra tion. A tin box in the stone contains a Bible, Lutheran nymn book, all the writings in regard to the building, a copy ot the He formed Messenger, the Christian World and the lielormiste Uausfreund. Tbe building is to be Wiii feet, frame, with a steeple 65 feet high. The building committee, two Lutheran and two lteformed, deserve a great deal of credit lor their faithful labors to accom plish the work, for w hich they were elect ed B. KxErrEK. The Beet is the CnKAr-E8T. The an. nouncement that a new edition of W eb- ster's Unabridged Dictionary has just been published, containing many new and valu able features, suggests the thought that buying a Dictionary Is a good deal use buying an egg or a watch ; a bad one is not cheap at any price. Welister being the standard authority tor the English lan guage, he naturally has luany imitators, but imitators are usually held at their true worth by the public; who wants a wood en nutmeg, though it may look ever so much like the genuine article T I lie pc.p ularity ol Webster is based upon this prin ciple. iryou want a handy tumg to carry wun vou, a companion that you can always re- y upon, and one that will never lire you, i really raf tneenm, we recommend that you get a copy of the pocket edition ol Webster, witu iu lo.uw worus anu mean- ings, rules lor spelling, tables of weight and measure, abbreviations, words, phra- and proverbs from the ancient and modern languages.

It having been agreed by tbe Baltimore and Ohio and the Pittsburg and Lake Erie Railroad Compa nies to form a connection at some point on the Monongabela river, within the city limits, the work ol arranging lor me trans fer of cars between the two roads will now pushed as rapidly as possible. The first step will be tbe establishment ot a steam ferry between the foot ot Twety- tilln street, bomu aide, aua a point ia tue vicinity tt the new gaa works, and the work ot constructing the track lrom tne mis line of tbe P. & L. E. road to the river has already been commenced. It is the intention of the two companies to build a bridge in the near future, and tbe ferry will therefore he only a temporary arrangement. The bridge will be built of iron, and will be located at the lower end ot Glen wood. The engineers of the B. & O. Company are engaged in locating the piers for the structure. When the two roads named shall have connected their tracks, they will be able to make the quick est time between the East and West by several hours.

(From oar Rtgolar CorrefpoiKlent) Washington. May 27, 1879. It ia difficult to tell to day what will be tbe outcome of the disagree ment between CoogreM and tbe Ex ecutive. That tbe bill will be vetoed has been known for some time. But! tbe unknown, is hew Congreu will meet tbe veto. If anything can be inferred from the public speeches ami private expressions of leading mem bers, tbe majority, if not as aggress ive and confident as it was before the first veto, is, at this writing, more compact and determined than it was immediately after the last reto. The legislative appropriation bill was signed by Senator Thurman jester day afternoon and was sent immedi ately to tbe Executive Mansion.. The President will probably send ia bis reto to-day. though some Republi cans are oi opinion that it will not be laid before Congress until the end of the week. The Southern members hare ad dressed a communication to the north ern Democratic members asking them to outline a plan of legialattre action in tbe present emergency, and signi fying their willingness to follow ibeir lead. The Demicratie mem bers of the House whoconceired this plan of getting a definite expression of policy from tbe Northern members desired to hare tbe joint committee act upon the proposition before tak ing any formal step to carry it out Should the joint commit.ee adopt the proposition, it will be 'submitted for signatures. ErerT Northern Demo crat who has been spoken to on the subject has signified his willingness to follow up the policy, and insist upon staoding firm and refusing ap propriations. The idea of tbe ad drees or document is that as tbe laws sought to be repealed more directly euect tne .Northern btateq. and, as tbe repealing ifgiiIiiru was inaugu rated by member from the North, i&ey should be allowed to lead in defining the policy to be pursued. Tbe joint conference committee will meet either to-day or to-morrow, when the question will be considered and passed upon, Tbe committee on post-ctnees and post roads have been giving 'their in tention to a system of return letter offices' such as bss long been in use in cogiatu. ijEe oojecij oi. a, propoeea bill is td'i-4 cure' thd mobi ucedy de livery f letters to writer in cases where the party addressed does no. receive them, lrom any cause what ever, such as a failure to take them from the office, illegibility of address, iodispoaition to receive them, or oth erwise.

Ia 1373 G la row was added, and as tbe experiment prored successful, the number was enlarged until now there are in that country 1C2 offices from which undelirered letters are returned to tbe writers, with 8 principal ounces.

The iron works of A. M. Dyers & Co, at Pittsburg, on tbe south side of the river, bare been visited by a strange misfortune. The lap-weld mill is built upon a vast mass of cinders, which the heat of the furnaces bss ignited, so that there is a subterrane an fire raging beneath tbe heavy rolls and other machinery used in tbe worts, it has been found necessa ry to dismantle tbe macbiner, and cart away tbe bed of cinders, as all the other efforts to extinguish tbe fire have prored ineffectual.
