GEO. F. WEAVER, JR., Seo'y.
NOT CAPTIIRED.—The report that Col. Wm.
Sipes was taken prisoner by the rebels who re
cently captured a train on the Louisville and Nash
ville railroad, is contradicted by the Louisville
papers. The Colonel was not on the train, having
passed over the road en route for Nashville a few
days 'previous.
LANCASTERUN SCHOOL Housa.—The teachers
and pupils of the North ward male schools will be
glad to learn that there is a prospect of getting
back to thidS old quarters it/ the Lancasterian
school house, for some months past used se a mil
itary hospital. The invalid soldiers are to be re
moved to the Camp Curtin hospitals, end the
rooms at once fitted up for re-occupation by the
school?.
&mem Piunr.-11 a recent skirmish in Tennes
see between several companies' of the Seventh
Pennsylvania cavalry and a band of rebel guerril
las, they had a hand-to-hand fight with sabres.—
The company of Capt. Charles C. Davis participa
ted in the fight, and the men acquitted themselves
like veteran soldiers, defeating the rebels and
capturing a number of then. Captain Davis was
in the thickest of the fight at the head of his com
pany, and escaped with the loss of his cap. A
letter from one of the privates speaks in terms of
the highest commendation of the Captain's hero
ism MI the occasion.
Row ter A DAECS.—Many of our local readers
are aware of the fact that in various obscure local
ities there exist low dance houses, patronized by
lewd men and women of the baser sort, including
some grey-haired sinners who are heads of fami
lies. The other night a row occurred at one of
these disreputable institutions resulting in broken
heads, scratched and bloody faces, damaged crino
line, and a general smash-up of beer glasses and
household furniture. We are informed that simi
lar scenes are of frequent occurrence at these dens
of iniquity where the youth of our city take their
first lessons in debauchery and immorality. Their
existence and locality is known to the condtables,
and it is their duty to return them as common
nuisances.
Polack Corm—Several "drunks" were arraigned
before the Mayor yesterday morning. Andrew Fil
ley, of Marietta, was found lying around loose
under the influence of bad whisky. He was dis
charged with notice to quit the city within one
hour, which he promised to do. James Gilham,
one of the York "cowls," same to this city, got on
a spree, and was picked up at the depot about four
o'clock in the morning. He tried a "sharp dodge"
on the Mayor to avoid punishment, but the game
didn't win, and James went to prison. An old
"bummer" from Carlisle, named James M'Math,
was found lying prostrate on the pavement with
his face cut. Whisky was the cause of the acci
dent. Some twenty-five years ago M'Math kept
a drug store on Front street in this city, and occu
pied a respectable position in society. From BMI/-
once and respectability he has descended so low
in the scale of moral degradation as to become a
besotted and despised drunkard, "by friends and
fortune quite disowned." The poor victim of in
temperance was discharged on promise of leaving
for home immediately. William Gibson, an old
and dilapidated specimen of humanity from Ches
ter, was also found on the street, with his brains
muddled and legs tangled from the effects of ine
briating fluid. He was ordered to quit the city
forthwith and promptly obeyed, having no desire
to return to the "calaboose," the accommodations
of which did not suit him.
THE LATE RAILROAD ACCIDENT.—FaII and
Grayleic Account.—Scenes and Incidents.—The
scene of the late terrible accident on the Pennsyl
vania railroad at Slip Rock, one mile east of Per
ryville station, was visited by the editor of the
Juniata True Democrat at the time of its occur
rence, who furnishes us with a full and graphic
account of the affair and the scenes and incidents
connected with it. The place is one of the most
dangerous on the road, owing to the peculiar for
mation of the rock, It i 8 a loose strata of lime
stone, under which the water collects and freezes,
and when mild weather thaws it, it becomes a
greasy mass, liable to be thrown upon the railroad
track by the vibration of any passing train.
On Monday morning the train came thundering
along, and when within about seventy-five yards
of the spot, down (lame a huge mass of this loose
rook upon the track. The engine and the whole
train passed over the obstruction, but immediately
thereafter left the rail. The engineer, Mr. Jacob
Elder, of Harrisburg, on observing the impediment,
"shut off," and while in the act of drawing the
brake he and his fireman were carried into the
river. Mr. Elder was seriously scalded by the es
caping steam before he was extricated from his
perilous situation. Both of his limbs were denu
ded of skin, and in drawing off his boot parts of
flesh and his toe nails came with it. The fireman,
Robert Frishey, escaped uninjured, but received a
cold bath, inasmuch as he had to swim ashore.
The express car was piled np alongside the loco
motive. The messenger when rescued was found
with his head parthillt but of the water with the
iron safe lying on his breast. He had thumped
so vigorously against the aide of the ear, to attract
attention, that the skin was worn from his knuck
les. He was rescued by Mr. Jones, of Cambria
county. The baggage car was cast along side the
express ear. The baggage master, after the gy
rations of his car were over, found himself stand
ing on his head! He escaped with alight bruises
and scratches. But the most complete wreck was
the first passenger car—it was shivered into a
thousand fragments. The tender of the locomo
tive remained about two or three feet up on the
embankment, (which was about fifteen feet high,)
and this oar, in its descent, struck upon it, com
pletely demolishing the body of the oar, and spil
ling out its human cargo. The scene at this time
must have beggared description, for even after the
removal of the killed and wounded it presented a
fearful and terrible spectacle. John Shearer, a
drover, of Greensburg, Westmoreland county, was
instantly killed. When found, the wheels d a
truck were resting on the small of his back. His
remains were forwarded to Greensburg. Mr. Don
ahue, of Terre Haute, Indiana, received an exten
sive wound on the head. Mr. Pryor, from Balti
more, had ono of his legs fractured and the other
severely burned. The other passengers were se
verely bruised and sprained, but were able to pur
sue their journey to Altoona and Pittsburg. The
wounded were removed to the sleeping oar, where
their injuries were attended to by Dr. E. D. Craw
ford, of Miinintown. Mrs. Dr. William Dickinson,
wife of Dr. Dickinson, Medical Director at St.
Louis, who was a passenger on the train, was the
subject of much praise, in her efforts to alleviate
the sufferings of the wounded. Mr. Elder, Mr.
Donahue and Mr. Pryor are now at the Patterson
House. The former is doing as well as could be
expected, and the two latter gentlemen are in a
favorable condition.
It was the wonder of all who viewed the awful
wreck of this oar, that there were' not more fatal
casualties resulting from it. Indeed, it was alone
regarded as Providential that any escaped with
their lives. By striking the end of the tank it
was checked, while the brake rod passing over the
car and connecting with a pair of trucks up on the
road, kept it from &Mpg into the river, and thus
many lives were saved. The second passenger
car, containing the ladies, was in a most perilous
position. Had it reached two feet further on the
embankment, it would have tumbled over into the
river. As it was, it was elevated, on the land side,
about two feet from the ground, rendering it ne
cessary for passengers to escape through the win
dows. Terrible would have been the consequences
had this ear been precipitated into the river, for
there was nothing to obstruct its downward course,
and, in all human probability, its occupants would
have perished in the river's flood. The soft earth
only prevented the catastrophe.
There have been a number of accidents at Slip
Rock, since the location of the road, and it will
always be a place of danger. Though the dein
pany have easeful and attentive watchman at this
point, it does not materially lessen the peril, for
the nature of the limestone formation is such that
it is liable, at any moment, to be precipitated nylon
the track on the approach of trains, which jar the
whole hillside. The company, it is highly proba
ble, will yet have to abandon this part of the road,
and cross below, to the east side of the river.—
Nothing they can do will prevent these slides, or
render the place one of safety to passing trains.

Owing to the extraordinary rise in the price
of paper, the blank sheet on which this paper is
printed costs one cent and a quarter. We are,
therefore, compelled to charge our agents, after
this date, one dollar and fifty cents per hundred for
our dailies.
ANOTHER NEGRO ASSAULTED.- On Thursday
night a fashionably-clad "American citizens of
African descent" perambulated the streets, flour
ishing a loaded cane and insulting "ite trash."
On Third street he came in eallisbn with several
young men who rebuked his insolence and threat
ened him with personal chastisement. At first the
negro indulged in defiant language and assumed
a defensive attitude, but after surveying the field
and counting the odds against him, he concluded
that discretion was the better part of valor, and
consigning his assailants to a certain warm sul
phuric region, beat a double quick retreat down
Third and out Market. The pursuing party, how
ever, made better time than the fugitive, overtook
him in Blackberry alley and chastised him some
what severely. A white man who interfered in
the negro's behalf was compelled to skedaddle in
order to avoid equally rough treatment. It is the
duty of good law-abiding citizens to frown upon
such lawless proceedings, and , we hope the partici
pants in this and all future similar outrages may
be arrested and punished. Whatever provocation
the negro may have given, it was not sufficient to
justify a personal assault and violation of the law.
The frequent outrages of this kind occurring here
and elsewhere furnish unmistakable evidence of
an "irrepressible conflict" between the white and
black races, engendered by the Abolition policy
of emancipating the negro slaves and elevating
the whole "African race in this country to social
and political equality with white citizens. And
if the present policy of the Abolition agents pre
vails, this "conflict" will go on, just as certainly
as effect follows cause, until all negroes shall have
been driven beyond the borders of the free States
or totally exterminated.
BELLING OFF I SELLING OFF I THE WHOLE STOCK

animals whose worn-out and miserable appearance
makes them almost worthless, can be restored to their
former vigor and fine condition by a few doses of these
invaluable powders. They are perfectly harmless, and
can be given to &sound horse as well as a sick one, with
sure benefit—they keep their blood cool, skin and bew
ele urinary organs in good order, and, on the
whole, improve the appearance of all animals, no mat
ter in what condition they are in, For high led home
they are invaluable. If horsemen would once a month
give a table-spoonful in their feed, we should seldom
hear of so many sick horses, Sold by all druggists.

All others are a base imposition and unsafe; therefore,
as you value your lives and health, (to say nothing of
being humbugged out of your money,) buy only of those
who show the signature of S. D. Howe on every box,
which has recently been added on account of the Pills
being counterfeited. The ingredients composing the

Dear Sir—l would state that I was induced to use
B. II .aNDBETH'd FILLS through the recommendation of
'John it. Swift, of Croton, Westchester County, who was
entirely restored to health by their use. He was sick
for some two years, very costive and dyspeptic, and he
tried everything., but was not relieved. Finally, he took
one Brandreth•s Pill every day for a week, and a Jose of
six Pills every day for three days, and then took one
Pill every day, with occasional doses of nix. In one
month he was able to go to work, and in three months
was well, gaining 40 pounds in weight.
Yours truly. EDWARD PURDY.
WESTCHESTER COUNTY, Ss.
Edward Purdy. being duly sworn, says that he resides
in the town of New Castle ; that some years ago he was
very sick with a sore on his leg, which had been run
ning for over five years; that he was also much dis
tressed by a pain in his chest,an I, besides, was very cos
tive and dyspeptic ; that after rying various remedies
and many physicians, he commenced using Brandreth's
Pills, six to eight three times a week, and at the end of
one month the sore in his leg healed, and at the end of
two months he was entirely cured of costiveness, dys
pepsia and pain, and has remained well ever since.
