Shortly be fore seven o'clock thlBevenlng,whllethe express train from New York was Hear ing Llnwood, on the Philadelphia, Wil mington and Baltimore rallroad,between Chester and Wilmington, three students of Princeton college attempted to paBS from the car in which tbey bad been seated to the car In the rear. The wind was blowing fiercely from the northwest, and the first student was nearly blown from the platform. He lost bis hat and had to hold on tightly to the brake wheel. Tbe second student, a son of Dr. Vaugbnn, a prominent physician of Wilmington, Del., was not so fortunate. The wind blew open bis overcoat, and the garment filling by the fierce gust the young man was blown backward and hurled with terrific force over on the Delaware river side of the track. The train bad gone about four miles be fore tbe conductor was apprised of the aocident. He was urged to return, but thought it safer to run rapidly to Wil mington and dispatch the particulars to Llnwood. This was done, and when the express train reached Perryvllle a dispatch from Llnwood awaited her, stating that a baud car had been sent out and that the dead body of young Vaughan had been picked up. His death must have been instantaneous, owing to tbe velocity at which the train was going when be fell. He had in tended to take dinner with his father on Sunday and return to college on Mon day.

The young man is a resident of this city, while the lady resides some miles this side of New York. On the day appointed the young man was.in a railway traln'stuck fast In the drifts some forty miles this side of the resi dence of the bride expectant. Tbe hours passed on and they did not succeed in getting out of the drifts. Finally, it was suggested that rather than submit to a postponement tbe marriage be conduct ed by the aid of the wires. All parties having agreed to this, the wire was stretched from the office to the bouse of tbe bride's parents, and tbe two were made one by electricity. Afterwards, when the track was cleared of the snow, the husband and wife met for tbe first time as such. The Result of Being in Bad Company. On last Monday evening the police of Philadelphia made a raid on a variety show known as the Arcade, and arrest ed and locked up In the station-house all who were present, performers and spec tators. The result has been a sad exper ience to Borne of the latter. One, a young married woman, who was Induc ed to go to the show by a female ac quaintance, and who knew nothing of its character, has been released on ball, but a divorce will follow. Several young men, clerks In stores, passed the night In their cells, and when their employers heard of it discharged them at once. The result will be a warning to others to keep out of such places.

The above Is the title of a new book published by Messrs. Porter & Coates, of Philadelphia. It is a book entirely original and exceedingly Interesting. The plot is laid in this suite and the In cidents are natural and life like. The characters are so numerous that the plot is almost overshadowed, but they are outlined by a master hand, and almost appear animated by life. The beautiful character of Emily Urundle in her de votion to her exacting father, with a heart Involved In the meshes of love with Volney Slade, and whom she wed ded afterwards, is drawn with artistic skill. It is a story of exciting interest, and though seemingly lacking at times clearness and distinctness, this Is more than compensated by the in tense charac teristics of the central figures In the story. The numerous evils of society are satirized with the keenness of the stroke of a Damascus blade,and through out there is one continued series of sur prises. Any person who begins to read tbe book will not wish to lay it down until the last leaf is turned, and will then wish the box was longer. There is no doubt 'the book will meet with large sale. We shall look with inter est for other books that may be written by the author of As It May Happen. Consumption Cured.
