persons ON horseback and on foot returning
from the funeral. When we saw the car
riage, as with the utmost rapidiiy it passed
Seventh street, the danger of its coming
in collision with other carriages seemed
imminent but the horses, although gallop-
ing at the top of their speed, fortunately
were kept in a pretty straight course along
our broad avenue, where there was room
enough for other horses and carriages to
get out of the way. The horses in the
Presidents carriage continued their course
at full speed, Notwithstanding every effort OF
the driver, assisted by the Presidents son,
to stop them. When the carriage reached
a point opposite Gallaburn's European Ho'
tel, a colored man fortunately succeeded in
stopping the horses. and thus the President
Mr.. John Tyler, Jr., and the driver were
most seasonably and happily rescued from
their perilous situation.

fortunate class of our brethren the last year to be
$4,000.
The vote TO request the County Court not 10

APPALLING CALAMITY.

We publish to-day particular accounts of the
dreadful catastrophe which happened on board the
Princeton, on Wednesday of last week, by which
SO many of our valuable citizens were precipitaied
into an untimely grave. Truly heart rending and
appalling must have been the scene witnessed on
board that vessel after the fatal explosion. But we
refrain from further remarks at present. The ac-
counts of this disaster will be read with the deepest
emotion.
