We have received a communication ou
"Agricultural Fairs," which shall appear

The poetry on Patience, by - Miss H., is
not original; consequently it is not pub.

the August number of Lis Ladle's Gazette,

recommend it to the fashionable circles.—

fashions, &c. It is published by Frank
Leslie, 10 Spruce Street, New York, at

The Knickerbocker, for August, comes
to us as usual laden with choice reading.
The individual who does not appreciate

Broadway, New York, at $3.00 a year,
The Railroad Guide is a useful work,
we have been receiving. Published by
Dinsmore & Co., 9 Spruce street, N. York

Graham's Magazine for August, has not
come to hand. What is wrong Mr. Gra
ham? We can't do without you, certain.
Terrible Railroad Accident
On the 29th sit, there occurred on the
Camden and Amboy Railroad, a most ter
riblo disaster, which was accompanied by
great loss of life and limb. The circum
stances of the case, are mainly as follows:
it appears that the 10 o'clock, N. M. train
from Philadelphia, proceeded ns usual on.
the way until it got about a mile above Bur
lington, (N. J.) when they discovered the
train from New York coming down at full
speed. 'l'hocastward bound train then at
tempted to back on to a siffeling to let the
New York tram pass, when the track was
crossed by a carriage end two horses, dri
ven by a gentleman from New Jersey.—
The horses were. caught by the hinder
most car, knocked down and crushed to
death. The collision caused the rear car
to be thrown off the trash, and dragged some
distance, breaking it up and dragging it af
ter the emigrant car, which was smashed
to pieces. The major part of the passen.
'gems in the rear cars wore instantly killed
or seriously injured.
Then ensued a scene which would baf
fle a description, The consternation was
so great that a panic of horror seized on
ail who iturvived the awful calamtty.—
Twcutytwo persons were killed, and about
forty wounded most shockingly—seine so
badly that recovery is almost impossible.
The dead were carefully,. deposited in cof
fins, furnished by the authorities of Bur
lington. The spectacle at the Town Hall
was of the most painful character ; fifteen
coffins beiti`g, arranged around the centre of
the room. The Coroner of the place had
summoned a jury to investigate the case.
Almost every house in Burlington contain
ed one or more of the sufferers by this ter
rible calamity. During the entire day the
usually quiet town was the scene of the
wildest excitement.
Four of the cars were mashed to pieces.
In some caseg the mutilation was horrible.
One man had his arm torn off in a fearful
manner. Another'ad his arm also torn
off anil thrown some distance up the em•
.bankment, and his legs separated from his
body, his heart end riscerm strewn along
the track for a great distance. OHO or two
others were buried in the sand, and others
were crushed to death between the sleep
ers? One man had his scalp taken off;
another had his thighs broken. Several
ethers had arms broken and were lacerated
and bruised in the most dreatlfilf manner.
The August Elections.
ALATIMIA.—Ttrere is no longer doubt of
the election of John A. Winston, (Dem.)

five thousand majority, beating Beverly L.

A Word for Ourselves.
The Globe devotes a large portion ofits
space in its last issue, to the immortal
'•Gabe," as it is pleased to term our fair
proportions. 'rise Globe says
"Gabe bus nt last brought the Aimed out
under its true eolors—lreaehery to the party
that has sustained it through good report."
'Phat we have brought out the true bun
ting of the ~ good old party," is a fact, for
which we are not indebted to the Globe,*
for making public. Our course has cer
tainly been open and fair, so plain that he
who runs may read. We do not nee°
with our neighbor, however, when he as
serts that we have rewarded the party that
sustains U 3 with. treachery. Could we,
as honest men, as consistent Whigs, rally
to the support of principles and men we
have always battle4l against ? Could wu
as believers in the doctrines of Clay and
Webster forget our duty, and by a base
amalgamation with Locofocois in , surrender
the party to the tender mercies of that or
ganized political band of traitors to the
interests of 'the North—the Pierce Party?
God forbid. If it be treachery to refuse
to net in a manner which our conscience
tells us to be wrong, we plead guilty.—
But we appeal to the honest men of the
county, let them judge between us and the
ten Alen composing the so.called Whtg
Convention. Did we not urge upon our
party the necessity of placing a complete
Whig ticket in the field 7 Had that been
done, we would have given it our hearty
and undivided support. Instead thereof,
a corrupting, dishonorable and unholy al
liance, w ith a party whose principles are
"as obnoxious to morality, as the dons of do.
pravily and crime which infest cur cities,
was entered into. And then, we were ve
ry urgently requested to give our consent!
Had we consented, thee indeed would we
have been guilty of treachery. But again
the Globe says :
"He, just out of his teens, a Know Nothing,
lms the impudence to dictate to men who have
grown gray in the Whig party."
Ila, hu, that's rich. Because we hap •
pen to have no gray hairs, because we are
not more than 'tout of our teens," we are
to be discountenanced by our fellow-sin
ners. Is gray hair to be the criterion,
the marlr, the seal, whereby we are to see
where sound principles are to be found
The Globe quotes some of these gray-hea
ded old Ishmalites, who we aro attempting
1 to lend about by the proboscis; and among
these veterans, are Sammy Wigton, Jenny
Doyle, and a few others. These are the
gray-haired sires, we are leaders of. In
ono sense, the latter personage is a tleetle
ancient,' i. e. in office-holding. Ile has
been fed long and faithfully by the Whig
1 party, and no doubt would love a "eolith),
ttance of those favors."
As regards our Know Nothingism, wo
presume, the Globe has the proofs. Will
it produce them.

The Kane Search•
In yesterday's Washingtoh Union we find a
copy of the instructions given to Lieutenant
Hartstene, command the Arctic expedition to
search for and relieve Dr. Kano and his com
panions. The expedition consists of the bark
Release and steamer Arctic, supplies of coal
for which were to be &Anima at Waygat
lar.d. Commander Hartsteno is furnished
with letters from the Danish Envoy at Wash
ington to the Governor of the Danish settle
meets in Greenland. Secretary Dobkin says
hi his iistruction
"Dr. Kane sailed from New York in the Ad
vance early in June, 1853, since which the de
partment has received no information from hits.
It is belicycd, however, that intelligence was
received of him at Uppernavick in July, 1853,
by his father, Judge Kane, of Philadelphia.—
1., expedition was then going north, and this
is the last that has been heard from it. The
department, however, learns, and deems it pro
per to put you in possessionof the intbrmatinn,
that it was the intention of Dr. Kano, after lea
ving Uppernavick on his way up, to make a
depot of provisions and erect a beacon, &e., at
Cape Alexander, the cost caps of Smith's
Sound, or nt Caps Isabella—most probably
the former. The department further learns
that it was then the intention of Dr. Kane to
pass up Smiths Sound, nod proceed west, nod
in case it was necessary for him to abandon
his vessel ho would make for Beeehey Island."
Commander Ifartstene is instructed to seize
every opportunity of sending home intelligence
of his movements, and also to use every occa
sion of leaving Ilag•staffs, piles of stones, and
other marks and records of his progress.—
Should the two vessels separate, both are to
to do likewise. The expedition is left free to
act according to circumstances, untratnelled
by stringent direetionu. Unit. 1201161 rained
by strong hopes of future success, the expedi
tion is to avoid pausing a winter in the Arctic
',glens, and also all unuccessary exposure to
danger.
