GREAT RAILROAD DISASTER A TERRIBLE CATASTROPHE.-TTE MOST 'AWFUL ON RECORD.--,CO3IPLETE LIST OP THE SUFFERERS. Irom the Jersey- City . We haie to record the most extensive and fatal casualty evertlinown in this country: Yesterday morning at an.early hour a very large train left Orange. N.J., en route for the White House, Washing ton, D. C., under the ch'arge of chief en gineer George B. McClellan. It was ex pected to make the, trip through in twelve hours. The train was very heavily laden with mercligndise shipped by a New York Jew house, Augustus Belmont agent. All the copperheads in the country were parsengers, besides a feW innocent people who bad been deluded into taking an ex cursion trip by the offer of dec.lhead tickets. Moratio Seymour of New York wail the conductor, assisted by Franklin Pierce, C. L. Irallandigham and Joel Parker. Ben. Wood was appointed to hold all'the money received•for fares.and wore a hat band marked conspicuously 4-11-4.4.• For convenience-and comfort • the pas sengers were classified in the cars; the !fogies under' the charge! of Robert C. 'Winthrop and Millard Fillmore, the short boys under John Van Buren and Capt. Rynders, the mountebanks and minstrels led by rack Rogers and, Marble, editor of the World, and the few clergymen mar shaled by the very Revs. , C;. Chauncey Burr and H. J. Van. Dyke. There were , several cars that. were intended to be at tached to the train thaedid not make the connection—one from, Canada, with George N. Saunders conductor, and a roomy one from New York, filled with Gqv. Seymour's "friends," were both de tained by the unwarrantable interference ofla man named Benjamin I?. Butler,who came to New York last week to "stop a spell." The :Cars were gorgeously deco rated with such elegant mottoes as the following: "Butter has riz," "Abe Lin-1 coin is a gorilla," "Little, Mike's the b'y be jabers," "Niggers for slaves, Irishmen for our masters," ',iWe are cowing, broth- I Or; Jeff." "Let Us change our base," "Here's your, spaniels for you, Massa Davis." 'They moved out of the Orange depot gaily to the tune of Dixie,_ though the engineer hesitated, when the final mo went of departure came, about stepping on the platform, and was at last only got on board by a little expedient of Fernan dO Wood, who pulled him into the train, backwards by his coat tail. Engineer McClellan was.dressed in the full rig of a Major General, for which his.uole Sam paid. He was very nervous and remarked that he should prefer a gunboat to a ride on such a locomotive. • The en gine was a new one, built at Chicago last 4ugust, but on a plan ,designed by Ben edict Arnold, and subsequently improved Li l y Aaron Burr andjortn C. Calhoun.— .I.t was built to the order of Jeff. Davis and bore the nogagin,„c , name of "Cessa Lion," which was adopted as a slight Change from thn original designation LfSecession." It occasioned a good, deal of remark! that hardly any soldiers took passage on 1 the train. . There were some men named grant, Sheridan, Sherman, looker and pis around, whoj very ungenerously ex pressed doubts ds to the safety of the track and the ability of the engineer, and; it is supposed this prejudiced the "blue coat" boye., Besides this the conductor of the train refused to have an American flag on the engine, and the soldiers have h stubborn feeling of prejudice on that subject. Notwithstanding these slight I ,fdrawbacks the train moved off; with the i Ilgood wishes and cheers of all titer rebel „soldiers in Lee's army, all the British aristocrats, and the pirate Semmes and 'his friends. From all that can be learned from the incoherent talk of the few sur vivors of the sad catastrophe it appears that there was trouble from the very start. The engineer and his fireman Pendle ton quarreled, all the trip, hbout the firing up, and the conductors and the fare taker were constantly giving contradictory or ders to the brakemen, and pervous con,, servative old gentlemen pulled frantically at the-bell-rope, giving engineer McClel lan no end of trouble. Just how the ac cident happened no one can tell 'now, but Icertain it is, that before the train i got half way through, there was a shocking smash up. : The locomotive exploded, the cars were•all piled up in fragments, the track torn up and such a multitude of passen gers 'fstally injured that it is doubtful if their names can be ascertained. Some assert that an old Illinois joker, familiarly called old Abe, caused the disaster by putting a rail on the track; others that the fireman Pendleton let too much wa ter out of the peace tank upon the fire in McClellan's boiler; others that Valise digham ran the train off the track by drop ping an "0. A. K." stick of timber under. the wheel; still others that the engineer was frightened by suddenly discoyeribg a "nigger in his wood pile" on the tender, and overturned the locomotive by at- I tempting to "change his base„ too sud- ' denlv. . Whatever be the cause, there is no dont% of the complete wreck of the whole. train, and the sad fate of the excursion ists. There are but slight fragments of the more dittinguished persons that, are recognizable. Ben Wood is missing al together, except his 4.1144 badge.— Fernando was recognized by a copy of the statute of limitations . in his /trousers pocket; Horatio Seymour and Vallan. digham ,were found locked fast is each other's arms and crushed under the weight of certain "dry goods , boxes" that corl- 1 Weed bogus soldier's votes ; Governor Parkc'r was badly bruised and lost his eye sight,, so that he "can't see it" any more; Pendleton was pitched headlong into a nasty: ditch filled. with secession mud, ' Which Choked hius r anci as for the engin eer, he was blown so much higher than Gilroy's kite and was so minutely pul verized that there is no ocular proof that any such man ,ever existed. The funeral of these excursionists wilt very soon be attended in Richmond, Va., by Jeff Davis and all his 'cabinet, and it is currently reported that U. S. Grant may attend, not, however, in the character of a mourn er. There will be ; no more trains run on thii road as the jeompany being tondo bankrupt by this c.lamity will immedi ately wind up its, affairs. The Union line however is in good running order. Whit the'South Is Fighting For . The 'follovion• clipped from the Rich. mond Sentinel beiring date Oct. 18th, may serve to give our democrat friends an idea of what rebels are fihting for.— If anY of our readers feel disposed to call it an abolition lie, they can see the paper by calling at the' office. It is the con clusfon of a long editorial designed to Show, the utter exhaustion of the North : We do not forglt however, that there is another' source to which the Yankees look for reenforfiements, and on. which they build large calculations. We mean the negroes. Indeed, Mr. Lincoln open ly admits that take away this help and he hds no 'chance for success. , He and his ' echoes even affirM,that they have at this time 200,000 song of Africa in his mili tary servile.'' That is manifestly untrue. Where are they ? Grant's and Sheridan's and Sherman's armies' all united, would not amount to two hundred thousand men. But our enemies do not remertt : bbr one thing. They do not remember that, as President- Davis says we are Got fighting for•sldvery, but fur independ ence., We would sooner sacrifice slavery, a thousand times than be ccooquered by, the Yankees and then have it sacrificed' l by them. If it become necesary we can enlist the negro element on our side.— We can make all the offers that the Yan-, trees can, and 'some that they eanuot.-1 We are far more considerate for our do- mestics than our inhuman enemies. We have not desired to involyp them in our wars. • Save for our tenderness for them we could long,ago have used them to far better purpose than the Yankees ever can. If necessity should ever oblige us to lay aside our scruples ' upon our enemies will be all the blame before God and man. The Path,-to the National Cap- MEE It-has always been the boast of the, slaveholders that the Constitution of the I United States nut only sanctioned and recognized slavery, but that the pathi to the national capital leers through slave States,, and that the interests :of slavery were thus joined to the safety of the cap. ital'of the nationi and thererore one could not, be impaired without endangering the security of the other. Like all the other arguments and positions to serve slavery, this has been swept away,bythe billow of war, and now for. the first time in the his tory of the Republic, a path to the nation al capital has been opened through free territory. The emancipation policy adopt- i ed in Maryland, breaks the dark bonds; in which slavery, has invested freedom's l capital. Had Slavery been content to en joy;the privilege it possessed—had those who,yved in lukury and base by the bar- I, ter . in human flesh, been satisfied with their social powers, and not aimed at bending all interests to their institution Maryland to-day would have still been a slave State, and the path to the national capital would have led, at least during ithis century, if Rot for the great part of the next, through slave territyry. In addition to !the gratifying result in I Maryland, by which a State has been wrested from slivery, the fact that the syratiathizeraWith the slaveliolder's cause were defeated iW'Nevi York at the late election, is equally important to all the true friends of fteedom. New York and Pennsylvania are .now .in the hands of loyal men: . Ina few weeks New Yoik will have a loyallGoVernor, who acting, in conjunction with s , Governor Curtin, of Pennsylvania, will iimleed complete the Security of the free . path to the National • Capital. -This is another result of the slavhholders' rebellion: " Had the Dem ocratic leaders of the Empire State, been true -to themselves and their country, nothing could ii:ave defeated the re-clee of Governor Seymour. But he . and his friends adopted,:the cause in the interests of slavery, and thus another mighty com monwealth was "forced as it were, to de lare for freedoM that there might be ne mistake about her adhcrance to the Na tional Government.' These are all com pensatory results, for the sacrifice made to crush the slaveholders' rebellion. A free path to the National Capital, and free States united f4r• the control of the sym pathizers with freason.—llarrisbu, g ret egraph. WASHINGTON, Dec. 6.—The Senate today confirmed • Salmon P.

The Guerrillas of the Southern States are not made up.of the riff raff of South ern society.

Lieut. Gen. Winfield Scott is reported to have presented a copy of his autobiog raphy to Lieut. Gen. U. S Grant, with the following inscription "From the oldest to the ablest General in the world. " Did Gen.Seott forget, or did he remember that Fredrick the Great once sent a sword to Washington, with the inscription : "From the oldest General in the World to the greatest ?" The British North American newspapers devote much space to the discussion of the subject which is now uppermost in the minds, of our provincial neighbors— the proposed colonial confederation. One •very important point which disturbs the minds of these . editorial writers is, the question whether the people will be al. lowed to give expression to their feelings in the matter. of the new form of govern ment before it. is inaugurated. Extract of a letter from a gentleman in Grant's army to his wife in Bingham tonr "Last week when I got the N. Y. Herald giving the news'of Lincoln's elec. tion, I took the paper and walked towards the Rebel lines and beckoned to a Rebel officer to come on neutral ground and hear the news,.which I read to him. • The Rebel officer shed tears like . a, Child, say ing, "We bad hopes the last two months if McClellan got the election there would be something turn up, whereby we might be saved, but now we must 'give it up, there is no help for us." Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, having nominated Gen.
