FATAL 'RAILROAD ACCIDRRT.--The Slow Line and a burden train came in collision near Kinrer's on Monday evening last, and aGerman immigrant, was so severely injured as to muse his death in about fifty minutes. Several other persons were more or less hurt, but none very seriously. A jury, convened by coroner Moore, in this borough, refl. dcred a verdict acquitting the persons connected v.ith the Railroad of all blame in the matter. The unfortunate man was sitting on the bumper of the car, which he persisted in doing oiler repeated warnings of the danger of the position ; and the dreadful penalty of his temerity will, we hope, prove a warning to those who travel by rnitraud,to keep the places intended for them; for seldom, indeed, do we hear of a person hurt without the explana. tiOTI he stood on the platform of the ear:" The body of the deceased was interred at this place.

INTEnESTIN(i STATISTICS.—The report of the Pat ent °nice, recently made, present some interesting statistics relative to the the wealth of the Union.— The population of the United States is set down at 20,746,000, and the aggregate of personal and real property is estimated at $3,094,560,000. New York is the richest state, her property being $1,112,000,- 000; Pennsylvania next, $850,000,000; then Ohio, $740,000,000; then Virginia, $503,000,000. The remainder of the States rank as follows ;—lndiana, $331,000,000; Tennessee, 380,000,000 ; Kentucky, $340,000,000; Massachusetts, $340,000,000 ; Geor gia, 320,000,000; Nnrth Carolina, 8306,000,000; Illinois, $294,000.000; Alabama, 8276,000,000; Mississippi, 256,000,000; South Carolina, $242,- 000,000; Missouri, 2.10,000,000; .Maine, $040,000. 000; Maryland, $183,000,000; Louisiana, $lBB,- 000,000; New Jersey, $166,000,000; Michigan, $1.15,000,000 ; Connecticut, $132,000,000; Vermont, $120,000,000 ; New Hampshire, 8120,000,000 ; AT , k ansas, $60,000,0013 ; Texas, $16,000,000 ; lowa, $52,000,000; Rhode Island, $50,000,000; Wiscon sin, $36,000,000; Delaware, $30,000,000 ; Florida, $30,000,000; District of Columbia, $18.000,000; Oregon, $8,000,000. In the above the valuation of the free States and tcrrirories, is $4,791,000,000; of the slave States 83,500,560,000. In this last item we suppose the value of slaves is estimated as property. There are probably not far from 2,900,000 slaves in the Uni ted States. Estimating them at an average value of $,300 each, we have an item of $870,000,000 property in human beings. Asst Ix TNCIDENT.-A correspondent or the St. Louis Republican furnishes that paper with a very interesting account of the late battle of Santa Cruz de Rosales. The following extract is amusing enough: About this time rather an amusing inc ident occured. Inteligence came to our general that a large party of Mexicans bad left town, and were about to cut off some of our pickets. He imrnedi• ately ordered Major Beall to move to the support of our men with his Dragoons. Promptly the men were in their saddles. A party was seen ahead, and off they galloped, rushing over ditches, mid ploughed fields, and through chaparralon tine style. The chase was kept up tar several miles, the re treating soldiers doubling tit every point. At last, the Major saw the frightened party make directly for the American camp. Re thought they had fairly rushed into the lions' den ; but on arriving in camp lie disevocred that he had chased in Captain —. in command of our own picket guard. In an uncharitable spirit some people might be disposed to blaine the Captain, but lie thought lie was:pursued by five hundred Mexican savelry ; therefore it was proper to fill back. An officer of more experience would probably have waited a moment, to he sure the enemy were after him, and have maturuvred some, in order to feel the enemy- But the Captain, not being well skilled in cavalry tactics, thought it brudent to make the simple movement of a "straight streak," which lie performed in a most admirable manner. _o,+ Clitromv.—Senator Benton has received a mail from Oregon up to the lot of November, and corn. municates to the State Deparment the information that the arrival ofMr. Buchanan's letter in the terri tory, with one from the Senator himself, had put a stop to the agitation of the question of providing au independent government for themselves, in conse quence of the rejection of the Oregon bill by Con. gross. They now send Mr. Benton a petition to be laid before Congress, earnestly invoking the protec. tion of our laws and government. There are 218 newspapers published in Pcnn.

FKANcE.—The con piracy di.covercd in Paris on Monday, the 15111 of may, for the overthrow of the Republic, and the establishment of Terrorism, has heeMsignally defeated. The greater portion of the wre.atched prompters of this insane movement arc in the hands of the authorities, or reduced to a con dition svhich will not admit of their doing further harm. Louis Mum., however, is still at liberty, although there arc stivng grounds for suspecting that he was actually with The conspirators during the two hours he was ab , ent rum the National Assembly on Monday. The sirongek mcans have been adopted to prevent a recur;ence of physical display by the members or the sect et Clubs. The allegiance of tt.u• troops of the line and _Nu. tional Guards is fully depended on, and M. La. inaction's popularity ban hoen effectually restored. Advises from Paris of 'Thursday evening, stale that the city had been tranquil during the day. The number of .arrests amounted to 9.00 tip :o that time. I3lanqui and Flotte, by some mysterious in. fluence, !sad been liberated. General Larsignac has been appointed Alitdr. ter of War, and 31r. Freure Cbaarel, Prefect of After the mob had been driven out M . the hail of the National Assem b ly on the 15th, they marched to the Hotel de Ville, to appoint a committee of public safety, and MM. Bathes, Albert, and the other ministers of the would.be provisional govern. meld, had just commenced, in the identical room in which Robevierre and his associates exereined their functions as director., when the National Guard entered the building from the rear, which had been left totally unguarded, seized; upon the pseudo government, and alter a struggle, in which M. Barbel in particular, ran some risk, carried them off prisoners. Citizen loubricr, in the inte. rim, repaired to the Minister of the Interior, with Ids Montaguards. lie demanded admittance and the transfer of the ministry to him, and the tart' posts to his faithful followers. Ile was admit. ted wily to be arrested ; his hundred partisans were disarmed, stripped even to their scarlet cravats, and turned adrift. Among the conspirators arrested were Snubrier, Raspail, Cabet, Albert, (ouvricr,) (lately a member of the Provisional Government,) 'Poulin, Seipet, Le Maitre, Boquet, Barbee, Unhurt, Courli.is, and Blanqui. Seventy-five of the body.guard kept by Clubbist Sobncr, at his house in the Rue de Ricoh, were ar. rested. In the same house a large quantity ofi arms and ammunition were found. It was an. nouneed that the guards called Montaguards had been disbanded. Persons who were in tho room with M. Barbes, were also arrested and conducted to prison. The arrests arc said to amount to at least sixty. On many of these persons were found pistols and dag gers, and on some letters from the chiefs in the plot. The prisoners were sent to Vincennes on the 16th, and any attempt to release them would be useless. The part taken by Louis Blanc in the affray on the 15tb, is yet involved in some mystery. He cannot, it is supposed, clear himself of complying in the matter during the time that the mob had pO. session of the Assembly. He, as well as Barbes, Albert, and General Courtais, mingled with the crowd in the ante chambers and lobbies, shook them by the hand, and expressed his confidence in them. When Albert and Barks went to the Hotel de Ville, M. Louis Blanc also quitted the Assembly, , but fortunately for himself lie did not accompany them to the Hotel do Ville. Ile has nut given any explanation of where he was in the interval, but sud denly atter the failure of the attempt to establish a Provisional Government, he re-appeared, and de_ . Glaredsolemnly that he was perfectly innocent of participation in the events of the day. This decla- I ration was received with shouts of derision and , contempt. M. Soubrier seems to have been one of the prime movers of the emeute. In the search made on the evening of the I. at the offices of the Commune de Paris, published by him, there were found 600 muskets, most of which were loaded, a barrel of gunpowder, and other munitions of war. Some of the papers which were seized are said to he of great importance. No less than B'2 arrests were made in Soubrier's apartments. One of the persons arrested had a pa per in his hand, which be thrust into his mouth, and tried to swallow, but being seized by the throat, he was obliged to give it up, and it turned out to be a list of tines. It appears that the government ascertaind that the invasion of the Assemby was a regularly organ. iced conspiracy, and that the insurrection was in tended to break out at the same instant at Lyons, and probably at other places. A telegraphic despatch was sent off to Lyons to inform the authorities there of their danger, and to announce the suppression of the insurrection in Paris. ITALY. -By advises received at Milan, we learn thrt a battle had been fought between the Austri ans and the Pontificial troops and Italian volunteers, between Cornuda and Molinetto. The Austrians lost four hundred men killed and five hundred pri soners, and many wounded. The body of thew troops, to the number ofsooo men, were surrounded without having any artillery, at Cornuda and Mo• lineito, and were placed between two fires by Gen erals Durando and Ferrari. Another account says that the battle lasted five hours, and that the Ro man troops received a check. The minister for foreign affairs of Piedmont an. nouneed to the chamber of deputies, on the 13th ult., the accession of Piacenza to the Sardinian do minions. The Provisional Government of Milan had ordered the opening of registers throughout the connrty, to receive the votes of the population re lative to the annexation_of Lombardy to Piedmont. —This decision was adopted in consequence of an energetic manifestation to that effect, made by the national guard and the people, followed by a de. mand, in which it was stated that the intrigues of Metternich, Guizol, and Louis Phillippe, in Lon don, the hostile attitude of Russia, the friendly die. position of Germany, the avowed neutrality of Sv.itzerland, and other diplomatic complications tending to cause an aprehensien of general confla gration in Europe, render it more necessary to in. crease the force of Italy by union. A fusion with Piedmont would render it possible to collect an ar my of 200,000 Italians. POLAND:A Cologne correspondent, writing on the 15th ult., says—" The report that a revolt was on the point of breaking out in the citadel of War saw, has been fully confirmed by a number of Poles who had arrived from that city on the Posen terri tory, under the impression that an imposing na tional (Polish) army had been limited in the Grand Duchy, and that that army would soon invade the " kingdom " of Poland. Th. fugative Poles (who have been assigned, provisionally, a domicil in Dan zig) declared that the conspirators in the citadel, 200 in number, (chiefly natives of Courland and Livona,) had undertaken to spike all the cannon, in order to prevent the bombardment of Warsaw, the inhabitants of which were about to break out simultaneously in insurrection. The project was discovered about two hours before the time up pointed for its execution, and all the conspirators were immediately sent to the fortress of Medlin, where they were shot." DENMARK.—The meditation of England with the Germanic league, Denmark and Prussia, is re ported to have failed, the war of dismember 'nem being still carried on with unabated Minket'_ hility against Denmark. No further conflict has taken place between the contending parties, each rapidly preparing for a general engagement. The Danes arc awaiting a Swedish reinforcement. The faigliNli Government has been informed that the mouth of Oic Elbe, the Weiser, or any part of the North Sca, will not fbr the present be blockaded— that the blockade of Pillau, Dantzic, Straisun, Ros tick, and R'ismas will cease on the 16th inst. Ten thousand Sit. edes will shortly assemble at Gothenburg„ whence (hey can be forwarded in eight hours to Jutland. The Swedes entertain great hostility to the Germat:s, and their junction with the Danas would, in all pr obability, turn the tide oldie battle. The Berlingsche Zeibing oleo penhogen, positively asserts that 20,000 Swedes have received marching orders, and that: a corps of Swedish allies may shortly be expected to arrive on the Danish territory. From the 15th of April to the 3d ult., not less than sixty-four German ves sels were captured by Danish men-of-war. A bill for a war tax to the amount of four millions of rix dollars, has been lard before the Danislt Parliament 1 at Roeqkild, (the old capital, at least royal residence in Denmark.) D. is hinted that Russia will supply the needful cash, the funds being at rather a low figure in the royal treasury of Denmark ; so much so, indeed, that the king is concerting all of his valuables into hard coin. Accounts from Hamburg confirm the report of a suspension of hostilities, atleast on the soil of lien. mark itself. An order of the day, issued by Gen. Wrangel to the German troops under his command at Kolding, promises them a temporary repose from their fatiguing duty; but he assures the army that peace will nut be concluded till the rights of Germany are fully secured, and the losses sustained by the German pioplc during the conflict, compen sated. The Senate of Hamburg have received a copy of the declaration made to the Court of Berlin by the government of Sweden ; it is to this effect—that if the hostilities are not.eonfincd to the Duchy of Schleswig, and if the German troops enter any other of the provinces of the Danish monarchy, Sweden will feel justified in sending a military force into Denmark to cooperate with the troops of his Danish majesty, in the defence of his territory against such invasion, or the landing within it of a German army. They will act, however, strictly on the defensive ; and, it is added, the Swedish go vernment, will resort to no aggressive measures against German merchant vessels: they can enter and depart unmolested from all the Swedish and Norwcign ports as before, as long as road of hos. tility is committed against these Statss.
