Corn The Drab.—The time allotted for recruit ing volunteers is fast going by, and only half of the fifty days now remains within which the various towns, wards, Sc., will be allowed to till their respective quotas under the President's Last sail for volunteers. The draft is to be made on Monday, the sth of September. la this city, and in Allegheny, the. Wards are energetically at work to secure the required number of men, and are offering liberal bounties. Some pre cincts have nearly succeeded in filling the re quisite quota, while others were not so fortu nate, and have yet to perform much towards volunteering. However, the present state of *thin is encouraging, and if we do not discon tinue our efforts, we may entertain hopes of having them crowned with complete success. Railroad Accident.—A fatal railroad ac cident occurred on Wednesday night in the neighborhood of Johnstown, in which one man was burnt up, and another was severely injured. It appears that a freight train westward bound stood on the main track, while another W an heading in the same direction, not far distant. The latter, not having received the signal in time from the stationary train, was unable to cheek its onward course, and the consequence was a collision. The rear cars of the freight train were made a completamass of ruins. The, wreck soon caught lire, an lateen cars, togeth. ei with their contents, were entirely consumed. The fireman not being able to extricate himself from the debris, was burnt up, and the engineer was severely injured. No doubt the loss to the company will be severe. , Explosion in Lawrenceville.—On Fri day morning at an early hour, an explosion oc curred Ittlthe Oil Works of Mr. McMahon, Lawrenceville. The report from the explosion was very loud and alarmed the whole neighbor hood. A large crowd of people was gathered around the scene of the explosion, and imme diately a diligent scarab was made to ascertain if any one was seriously injured. But fortu nately, the occurrence did not prove so dies trous as was at first expected, and nobody was fatally injured. Two men were badly burnt, and a considerable amount of damage was sus tained in the Oil Works. We believe the par ties burned are in a fair way of reeovering, and the other damage can be soon repaired. ilail—Storm in Temperance-sitle.—The heavy rain which fell in our city on Thursday night, assumed quite a stormy feature around Temperanceville and Saw Mill Run. A violent hail-Storm prevailed during a part of the night, and a gale arose which blew with such fierce ness that the branches were severed from the trees, and in some places the trees were entire ty uprooted. Shingles were torn from the houses and scattered to the wind, to the great annoyance of those who wished to enjoy a night's sleep after their labors. Part of the crops was also damaged, - but we have not as cestained whether the lose sustained is of a se rious character. 60th Maassiebusetts—The 60th Massachu setts regiment of one hundred day's men stop ped for a short time in this city, on their way to Indianapolis. They left Massachusetts nearly a week ago, and were joined by their comman der, Colonel Wasa, in Baltimore, whieh city they left on Thursday. Most of them appeared in excellent condition, but some few could not stand the fatigues of military life so well, and dropped down in the street weak and exhaust ed, while their companions were partaking of refreshments. Meeting In Allegbenr.—A meeting of the citizens of the Second Ward, Allegheny, was held last evening, for the purpose of adopting measures to raise the quota of the Ward, and avert the draft. The meeting was largely at tended by the citizens, and they all displayed a willingness and determination to unite their efforts in securing their portion of the city from all lllibillty. The quota of the Ward is quite large, so that they will have to use their utmost energy to levy the necessary number of men. Hoy liChisznpped.—We yesterday notified our readers of an occurrence in Mononga hela borough, in which a child named John Smith, was abducted by some unknown man, and conveyed to this city. Since then, the child Was recovered to the great joy of its distressed parents. It seems the man was partly intoxi cated, arid seeing the child, be mistook him for his own, but on discovering his mistake, after a few hours walk, he retained the child safe and 901=1 to his parents. 188th Pensio. Volunteers.—The above regiment passed through this city yesterday en route to Chicago. They had been stationed to ltiniore during the last three weeks, an.l ar rived in this city this morning at about four o'clock, and took their departure about noon. Although they stopped in this city for about i;ht hours, owing to the strict discipline preserved by the commander, Col, iFormanus Neff, no straggling was allowed, and the men were all in readiness to start at the houlappolnted. k Michigan Tsoups.—A squad of men from the above State, passed through this city yes. buds/ enroute for the front. There were also two companies of colored volunteers and sub• stitutes comprising one hundred and fifty men. A few members of Company C, 38th Wisconsin regiment; were in the came train. As yet the colored troops had not been assigned to any particular regiment. Iris* on Wood Street.--A fire broke out yesterday morning in the cellar underneath the store of O. 0. Mellor, on Wood street. It orig. fruited among some straw, which was lying in the. cellar, but as it soon attracted attention, it was immediately extinguished before the aid of the engines was needed. To this fortunate oc currence, probably the safety of the entire block is Indebted. Caraners Ingescat,--An binned was held on the , :body of.a young man named .

Volunteera.—This regiment panned through our city, yeaterday, on their way to Rock Island. They were commanded by John R. Haalitt, and seemed in excellent spirit. They stacked arms on Fifth street, for a while waiting for conveyance to the West, and amused themselves with cheering for some of the citizens with whom they were acqu dii,t ed, to the great delight of the people. Thursday a quite violent hail -storm was experienced on the other side of the river. In Allegheny, the hail stones were so large, and fell with so much force that seve ral window panes were broker. Its effects were also felt in this city, but so slightly, that few were aware of its presence. B. L.

A large fleet lay for months at the mouth of the Mississippi, thrown into consternation every few days by an as sault from Hollis' ram and rebel vessels of inferior grade, but no sooner did Far ragut take command, then he pushed the fleet up the river in face of the fire of the rebel forts and iron -clads, passed the forts, sunk and burnt the iron -clads, and took New Orleans. When Vicsburg was besieged, he ran up the river past the batteiies to the aid of Grant, and when it was found that he could be of no further assistance•, lie ran down again, with all the rebel forth playing vigorous ly upon his vessels, and knocked a for midable rebel rhm nearly to pieces as he steamed down. This running past the formidable obstructions at the mouth of Mobile Bay is a remarkable instance of daring and success. It is protected by no less than four forts—Morgan, Gaines, Powell, and a sand battery on Dauphine Island, which together are armed with 37 guns. These he apppears to have passed with the loss of one monitor, hut be has made terrible havoc with the reb el fleet of iron and cotton clads, nearly all of which were superior in force to his own iron clad monitors. The Ten nessee carried 7 guns. The issue is yet doubtful, for the obstacle: , in the harbor are great, but the example so often set by Farragut, of running past the main deference of rebel harbors ought not to he lost on other fleet commanders. At New Orleans he did not stop to engaLre the forts, for he Luew ilut the posses ;ion of New orlearis compelled their surrender. At Mobile he has tried the same tactics. Would not this b• the proper way to assault (la Icston ' Far ragut yet may answer the que,ti,o, Curtrors STORY !!!, A PooTo..n.‘ en When the war broke out a young man belonging to Boston enlisted and carried to the field with him a photograph of his betrothed.

Latest Army Operations. NEW Vorts, August 12.—A Ti,oex special from Washington of the l lth, says: Dispatches from Farragut surfer delay from the fact that it was necessary to bring the dispatch on steamer from New Orleans, Now, however, they are hourly looked for. Richmond papers of yesterday say that their loss in guns at Fort (}sines. was fifty, and they' lost six hundred prisoners. There was also an immense amount of ste. , res of all sorts. Sherman's dispatches state that all the Georgia militia ale moving in his front under Hood. It is understood that Beauregard has been sent to take corn made of the defenses of Mobile. That Engineer has certainly shown a high order of talent in the kind of work with which lie will there be charged, as his defence of` Charleston and Petersburg attests. The present position of Sher man's army however, tmdtes the mere pnasession of the city of Mobile a matter ].] minor importance, ]tmi no great sol icitude is felt in official quarters in rt gard Inn its capture. At last advises the situation before Petersburg remained uncharged. The intere,t, so fat as active military Opera. lions go now, centers in the force under Sheridan, whose brilliant inauguration of the campaign is most encout:ming. TBBURfill.
