The New York Express thus speaks upon

The New York Express thus speaks upon
the result Of the election in the Empire State:
The Wing ToRNADo.-We are as yet too
much exhausted by the labors Of arranging and
collecting Election Returns, and by the want
of sleep, TO have much time 10 spare to call
attention TO the storm that has swept over Lo-
cofocoism in this State. We have beaten
Pennsylvania, we think, in the tornado We
have got up here,-and il, in this part of the
State, there had been the union that was deSl-
rable, three more pure Wing Members Of
Congress would have graced our victory, IN
the persons of PHGNIX, MONROE and VAN
WAGENEN-all lost by feuds and splits among
men substantially OF the same opinion on
National Politics. Independent of the un-
sought for aid we have from the Ambient
agitation. the returns are showing, particularly
ON the Members of Congress, that the purely
Wing strength is decidedly uppermost in the
State.
The great causes of these changes of public
opinion are, no doubt, the change of the Ia
riff, and the enactment of the Sub Treasury by
the present Congress,--with the fraud that
was practised upon us in getting up war
with Mexico, after the President had promised
us the annexation of Texas should be "blood-
less achievement" The Wings discriminate
admirably between the duties they owe 10
their country and their counuymen between
the pride they feel in our glorious military
successes, and the censure due to the admin
istration for the blood that is split, and the
money that is wasted. As for the Tariff OF
1916. Free Traders may say what they please.
1t is odious in the interior fthe State,-wniie
the Sub Treasury here is ridiculed indiscrlml-
nately BY friend and by foe Of the adminlstra-
lion. 1t is an abortion, disgracing the concel-
vers, and as impracticable as il is absurd.
Now that the CENTRE OF THE UNION, in
Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York and New Ter
sey, is WHIc,-we hope to see the Wing fires
kindled up anew every where. PoLg's is A

RAILROAD AccIDENT.-De Detention The JTes

land due here ON Monday evening at 6 O'Clock
did not arrive until yesterday afternoon about
half past 2 O'Clock. ltleft Cumberland at the
usual hour, and after proceeding as far as
Dough Gulley Tunnel, encountered land
slide, which threw the engine and two cars of
the track, causing detention of between FIVE
and SIX hours. After removing that obstruc-
ton il proceeded on as far as the Opequon
bridge, when ii was found that the freshet had
washed away the tresselings, and il was deem
ed prudent TO make an exchange OF passengers
with the train from Baltimore, which was on
the opposite side.
The train then proceeded on 10 Baltimore,
being obliged TO travel very slowly in conse-
quence olland slides, washed culverts, drifts,
SC, and had arrived at Woodbine, about SO
miles from Baltimore, when it suddenly came
in collision with the extra train for Frederick /;
the engine ofthe downward train being forced
through the baggage car, which was almost en-
tirely destroyed. Both the engines were bad
ly broken. but we are happy to add that no per
son was injured. This accident would have
been avoided had the conductor Of the extra
Frederick train obeyed the explicit orders of the
Company, which required him on no account
10 pass beyond ELECTS Mills, until the down
ward train had arrived at that point or been
heard from. But the train being delayed so
long he was persuaded by the supervisor of the
road TO proceed onward, thus causing the COLI
sion We understand that the parties concer
ned in this violation oforders were promptly re-
moved from their situations by the President
