illustrated this part Of his eloquent conversation.
He said that Texas was then 10 Mexico a broken

DREADFUL ACCIDENT.

Yesterday morning n dreadful acci.
dent occurred Oh tho Rail Road leading
from Bordcntown to Trenton, by which
q passenger in the nine o'clock train,
was instantly killed. The name of the
unfortunate sufferer was Woglam. He
had left this city yesterday morning, by
the seven o'clock train, and stopped at
Bordentown TO make some collections !;
on the arrival at that place of the nine
O'Clock train from this city, he engaged
n passage for Trenton, entered the car
and took his seat But few minutes
after the train had started he went out
on the platform, outside, and must have
fallen between the cars almost imme-
dately after The wheels o!!wo cars
passed dag onally across his breast and
across a part Of his arm; crushing them
80 dreadlully as to cause instant death
His skull was also badly fractured. Mr..
Woglam was an unmarried man, and was
on n tour OF collection for merchants in
this city.
This melancholy accident is but one
among many which have occurred by the
practice of persons standing outside the
cars, when in motion. There is we be-
lisvc on this road a caution against the
practice placed conspicuously on each
end Of the car. U. S. Cazene.

Of Almity and Wooster streets.
On Thursday evening, Adams came
home intoxicated, as was his frequent
custom, and falling into passion with
the servant, grasped carving knife,
with which he threatened to kill her. -
Mrs Adams coming in at the moment,
demonstrated with him upon his violence,
and said something about having him
taken up at which he turned his rage
upon her, and rushing upon her; stabbed
her twice with the knife, the second stab, !,
piercing the heart. She ran into a
neighboring house, sat down, and in a
few moments died.
Adams was quickly arrested. A cor
oner's inquest was held on the body yes

cd and committed for trial.-.New York
