ANOTHER ACCIDENT ON THE PENNSYLVANIA
Iletrutom).--The fast line from the West, due
here at six o'clock this =morning, had not ar
rived at this station at 12 o'clock to-day. We
could of course gather no information explan
atory of this delay, except such rumors as
were cautiously whispered outside of the rail
road depot. from which we inferred that an
other dreadful accident had occurred, some
where in the vicinity of Altoona. ,
To THE PUBLIC.-C. L. Bowman, No. 1,

fully announces :to citizens ureistrangers, that
he will open on Saturday of this week, and
Monday of next week, a large assortment of

fall and winter dry goods . Cotton and foreign
goods have not declined, though there has
been some abatement in the premium on gold.
The cheapest class of goods now in the mar

year is domeitic 'Woolen'gobds. Otir motto is
small profits, and a disposition to please those

in the State, if alleviating the sufferings of

In securing the right to manufacture Dr. Mc-,
Bride's King of Pain, Messrs_ Kunkel & Co.

SWORD PRESENTATION. —This morning Capt.
Harvey W. brNight, of the 210 th Penn'a reg't.
was made .the recipient. - of .a very beautiful
sword, which was purchased by the members
of the Captain's company, mid presented to
him as a token of their respect for their com-•
mender. The presentation speech on behalf
of the company was made by private Ed
mund Misenhelder, whose remarks were very
appropriate to the occasion, and expressive of
the estimation in which. Capt. klaNight was
held by those under his command. , The cap
tain responded,lloinking the generous donors
for their valuable gift, and in a brief but stirr
ing speech, he asserted his determination to
make good use of the sword, and never dis
grace it. Both addresses were -listened to
with marked attention on the part of those
present. •
IMPOiSTANT O.IIDEr.--A Matter in which. Every
One is, interested.—An order has just been
issued in relation to tl}e draft, which says:
"If the quota of any district shall be entirely
filled by volunteering, after the draft, but be
fore the drafted men are sent to general
rendezvous, then the person drafted will be
excused. Volunteers will, be accepted and
counted on. the quota,' as well as drafted men,
till it is filled; and when filled, and before the
drafted men shall have: been, sent to,the general
rendezvous, for every additional volunteer
mustered in la drafted man. will be excused,
'the person to be ex.cused being taken from
the bottom of the list of those drafted, in the
reverse order in which they were drawn; but
in no instance will a substitute be exonerated
or excused." Unde r the above it will be seen
that those districts behind in their 'quota
here may yet get "out of the draft" by proper
exertion. Let a sufficient bounty fund be
raised "and enough men may be had within
the next two days to fill their quotas.
LOCKING TELE DOORS OF PASSENGER CARs.—
It
is a rule at all railroad depots that persons
before they can enter a passenger car, must
show their tickets to employees stationed at
the doors thereof. It is a custom with con
ductors, the moment a train starts, to lock all
the doors of the cars. The object of this is
stated to be the prevention of the escape of
passengers whO "may have entered the train
without purchasing tickets. The inconsist
ency of such a claim is apparent in the face
of the fact that no passenger can even get his
trunk checked or enter a car without first
showing his ticket. lithe door in the passen
ger car burned near Thompsontown had not
been locked, the Pennsylvania railroad would
not be responsible to-day- for the murder •of
six innocent passengers. There is scarcely an
accident occurring on arty' 'read in connection
with a passenger train that is not aggravated
and increased in its lioirers by this fooligh
habit of locking the doors of the cars. We
refer to this fact in no spirit of hyper-criticism.
We do so merely to. counsel the managers of
our railroads, as well. for their protection,
as for the safety of the lives and limbs of
travelers.
Since the above Was written and in type,
the following protest.from the survivors of
the fearful accident atThompsontoivn, yester
day, reached us in.the .columns of the Phila
delphia Press. It tells a story which admits
of no comment:. ."

Son of Lfe—Three Passenger, a Baggage and
Mx Freight Care' Wreaked arid Destroyed by
lfire.—About four o'clo'bk yesterday morning
a most fearful oollision,occurred on the Penn
sylvania Railroad,. near Thompsontown
station, about thirty-eight miles west of this
City. What is called the Fast Freight had
reached Thompson:town running behind its
schedule time, with a full knowledge of the fact
that the fast line from the West was, momen
tarily expected at that station. The freight
train had hardly stopped, and the, flagman
bad scarcely reached the end of the train to
Unfurl his signal, when the fast line from the
West came thundering along : The engineer
of the latter train was runnine on his own
time, calculating, of course, tha t b the road was
clear, and from the fact that this train not
Stopping at Thompsontown, the reader can im
agine the fearfulness of the collision when it
occurred. The engineer of the fast line had
but a moment to observe the'fiagman of the
fast freight, when he immediately put on his
patent ,brakes and reversed his machinery,
coolly and courageously remaining at his post
on the engine, there to do what he could to
diminish the awful destruction by which he
was so suddenly confronted.
The effect of the collision was terrific. The
baggage and three passenger cars of the fast
line were literally smashed together. At
once a scene of fearful confusion, intense ex
citement and heart-rending suffering ensued.
One of the passenger cars, containing some
thirty passengers, was discovered to be on
fire. Those in charge of the trains, with the
passengers who were not injured, made every
effort to rescue the unfortunates in the burn
inoc, car. Tho.brakesman, (L. Imbrie,) and
the conduct& (John Mullison,) who were on
the platform of the oars, supposed to have
been there in answer to the signal of the en
gineer, to assist in , stopping the train, were
literally mashed together, and then almost
entirely consumed, their charred remains
mingling, as it were, in a common crisp. We
have been furnished with the following list of
passengers who were , injured, but not killed,
by the collision:
G. H. Abbott, .Chillicothe Ohio ; collar bone
injured.
William Jones, Downingtown ; both legs
broken.
Temple Jones, Downingtown ; one leg
broken.
John Reeves,. Philadelphia ; leg broken.
John Brach, St. Clair, Schuylkill county ;
tone leg broken..
E. Williams, Baltimore ; one leg bro
ken.
Jonas' Henry, Mifflin township, Cumber
land county ; bruised slightly.
Lehman Goldsmith, Philadelphia ; one leg
broken
William Newmire, Allegheny city ; slight
injuries.
John Raviland, Cannonsburg, Pa. ; slight
injuries.
Catharine Stanton, Indianapolis ; scalp
wound.
William - Notestoin, Johnstown, Juniata
county ; leg broken and eye bruised.
Solomon Booke; Mail Agent, Mifflin, Pa ;
internally injured, seriously.
.FURTHEIr DETAILS
Since thOabove was written and in type, we
have been able to gather some additional facts
from passengers who were on the train at the
time of the collision. Some of these posi
tively assert that there were at least thirty-five
passengers who lost their lives in the burned
car. From others, again, who reached the
scene of the wreck a few hours after the oc
currence of the accident, we learn that only
six persons lost their lives in the burned car.
One passenger, a large-framed man, in at
tempting to make his way through the win
dow of the car,' succeeded only partly, and
while held in the narrow window frame, be
came a prey to the flames. Those who exam
ined the burned car insist that if more than
six persons had perished, their charred bones
would have remained to tell the story.
CLUE' OF THE WOIINDED. 4..
As soon as 'the news of the accident reamed
this' city, Mr. Samuel. D. Young, Superin
tendent of the Division on which the acci
dent occurred, summoned a number of onr
most eminent physicians, preparing himself
also with every necessary article of relief, and
proceeded at once to the scene of the disaster.
Whatever relief medical assistance could af
ford was promptly rendered, and we are happy
to state that the wounded were all able to pass
to theirvarioug destinations in the trains which
left this city yesterday afternoon and evening.
A lady passenger whose injuries were of a
character to prevent her removal further than
this city, was lodged at the 'United States
Hotel, where she is now kindly cared for.
DESTBECTION OF MAILS AND BAGGAGE.
The baggage car caught fire from the burn
ing passenger car, and in the confusion which
ensued, the mails and a greater portion of
the baggage were destroyed. These are very
important, being through mails from the
great west. It is, of course, impossible to
estimate the value of the baggage destroyed,
but it is fair to suppose that it is great.
LERTVAL O 1 .THE REMAINS OF THE DEAD. •
The remains of six dead bodies were
brought to this city last evening. These were
of course in a condition to be beyond recog
nition—the faces and arms of all being en
tirely consumed. Superintendent Young at
once ordered the placing of these remains in
charge of 3. Brisbin Boyd, undertaker, by
whom they will be interred at the expense of
the railroad company.
COBWEB'S INQUEST.
Of course a coroner's inquest will be held
on the remains of the victims by this fearful
accident, by which all of the facts will be
developed, and from which the public
will learn who is responsible. 'lt is time
that an -example be made of the guilty
parties.in such transactions, in order that the
employeeg and managers Of 'railroad compa
nies may be taught a severe lesson, and that
the lives of the traveling public maybe hereL
after regarded by such as these as worth kre
serving by common care and ordinary vigi
lance.
INCIDENTS
One .•-o€-the, , ,-the,- painful incidents connoted
with this transaction iePresentediu the fact,
that wife of conductor ktullison was in

announcement the .crushiiig colamity of
her great loss. Hid - the flagman of the
freight train been left off by the conductor of
that train, at a proper distance from the.sta
tion, it is alleged that this accident might
have been avoided, as the freight train was
behind, time. When the freight train stopped
at the station, the flagman had not reached
the end of his train to give the signal, when
the collision occurred.
The remains of conductor Mullison could
only be recognized by the keys and ticket
punch found under them.
THE LATEST
Thursday Noon.—We are pleased to learn
that Mr. Bookes, Mail Agent, who was report
ed dead; is still, living, and hopes are enter
tained of his recovery. His escape from the
flames was almost miraculous.

A Friendly Confab between
Sally and Flora.
REPORTED BY JENKINS, 1,110 °TERMED TT ALL
"How are you, Miss Flora, the belle of Broadway,
With your silks and your satins, and flowers so gay—
Your new-style cloak of frosted gray— •
Your waterfall hat, like Niagara's spray — •
Where did you get them, and what did you pay ?
Ohl dear, those fine trimmings of velvet and gteeri,
Are fit to adorn the robes of a queen—
They are the loveliest I ever hate seen!
Such a love of a hat as that, I declare,
Ought to make the Jones Rouse officers stare,
Whether young or old ;
But do tell me, Flora, if my friendship is dear,
That I may in similar attire appear,
Where such'thinga are sold -
" Well, Sally, I'm not very selfish, you know—
And never have but one string to my bow—
So 'twill give me great pleasure, my dear, to impart
A secret that will thrill and gladden your heart.
At atime when gold has reached a fabulous price,
It takes a pile of greenbacks to get anything nice,
Even Irian city marts of trade.
But you need not go so far as that, my dear,
So long as we have fashion'S bazaar right here,
Where all such things are made.
At Mrs. Mayor's blue front, No. 13 Market street,
You will tad an assortment full and complete,
Of the iffiest fall goods;
Cloaks, Mantillas, Bonnets, and fancy Beeves,
Ribbons, Bowers, trimmings, and the prettiest hats,
Together with nubias and hoods.
But this is not all, a thousand things more
Grace the shelves of the blue front store.
It is there that ladies resort by the score,
And gain-ingress and egress in sections of four,
no great is the crowd,
All anxious and eager to see tho fall styles,
Arranged in boxes and bundles, and piles,
Just arrived from France and Great Britain's isles,
And arc lovingly longed for with maidenly smiles.
By the meek and the proud.
But, Sally, delr,.l•would have you to know,.
That Mrs. Mayer's prices are exceedingly low,
And this la the secret of the constant flow,
Of custom—not confined to'the high or low,
But by people of every station,
The fabrics are the best the market affords, •
And all that with beauty and fashion accords
'Cheaper thcri the:churl/ere—these are the words
That cause almost an ovation.”
