AsToNTsHINe.-ln country like ours
governing itself through the medium of 1t.
own elected agents, and delegating but a
small portion of power to each, there are
very few indeed, at least, of the citizens Of
villages, who do not, in the course of their
lives, become the ncumbents of offices Of
some kind. The Ohio Statesman, in his
attempt to pfove the late State Convention
vast meeting of office-holders has, after
cantassing the whole State with the most
intense industry, discovered that of the
twenty Thousand people collected on that
glorious occasion, two thousand eight hun
dred only Of them were or had been in the
course Of their lives, Justices, Constable
Commissioners, Township Trustees, Su-
pervisors of Highways, Legislators, Audi
tors, Treasurers, Postmasters, Fence view
ers, Overseers ofthe Poor, Merchants, Law
yers, Sc. sc. Supposing the Statesman's
list to be true land it has been proved false
in more thdh a thousand instances is it not
strange, nay, almost incredible that in such
vast multitude, Sc few could be found
who had holden any Office whatever
We will bet basket of the best Cham
paighe that can be purchased with money,
that the Locofocos in this State cannot, ,; with
all the drumming they can raise, get up
Convention of half the size of the Wing ga
thering without having more than twice two
thousand eight hundred actual officeholders
present at it. Will any one take our bet!
SIoNs.-H female friend of ours has de
sired us to take notice that the day on which
the marriage of Queen Victoria and Prince
Albert took place, was very rainy, ga GER

a shrewj and che gentleman not over at
tentive to those sweet didactics of married
life denomlnated by the profane curtain lee

how sweetly the little sovereign looked up
in the face Of her lord and husband, when,
with a firm and untremhlous voice she pro-
missed to love, honor, obey and all that sort
If thing, her noble spouse For our part,
We don't pretend to know much about such

ACCIDENT ON THE WORCESTER RAIL ROAD.
On Tuesday evening the defending train from
Worcester came in collision with another with way
passengers from Brighton, Nedham, &c., near
Westboro. The consequence was serious injury
to two of the passengers, viz. George Brooks, son
of Samuel Brooks, esq. of Brighton, who had his
right leg fractured, and Mr. Ostine the younger.
In addition, Mr. Haven, of IIopkinton, was bad
ly wounded in the head. Mr.. Simpson and Mr..
Wallace Thaxter, two young men of Boston, re-
ccived slight injuries. Several others, embrasng
most of those who were in the cecond car, were
more or less bruised. The engineers and fireman
jumped from off their engines before they struck,
and escaped unhurt.
The two engines were much broken, and so
completely nterlocked that it was found impracti-
cable to separate them. Neither engine was thrown
from the track, nor were any of the cars, except
the three first of the ascending tran which were
much broken the two first entirely broken to
pieces. The persons in the third car escaped I'M
hurt, most of them having time to jump out. None
in the rear of those were hurt, and towards the
rear the shock was very slight.
