Shocking Railroad Aeeidsnt-Snow Storm Tie
Markets, &c.
This morning, a sesfarlne man, by the name of
Lewis, while crossing the Reading RAILROAD track,
at Richmond, was run over by coal train. Both
his legs horribly crushed, and one cut off en-
trey He was taken 10 the PENNSYLVANIA Hos
pitsl, where amputauon was resorled 10. HIS re-
coveTy is hopeless. He has family. The en-
ginser Of the tram, is of opinion, that Lewis threw
himself upon the track, with the object Of self
destruction.

three OF four pounds. Notwithstanding its dimu-
nitive size, the engine turned the light paddle
wheels of the machine with ease, and kept in mo-
tion as long as the water lasted. The rudder was
set to fly the balloon in circle. 1t was started
from the eastern door of the rotunda, and went up
steadily, propelled by the engine, in regular gY-
ration to the roof making two full circles on its
way. Here weight having been attached, it de-
scended in spiral, following the set OF the rudder,
and landed safely. This experiment was repeated
the second time with like success, and as far as
flying in a quiet atmosphere goes, the locomotive
may be considered successful. 1t remains to be
seen, whether large machine, similarly con-
structed, would safely resist the violent commo-
tions of the open air. There was large number
of persons present yesterday, who testified by a
hearty applause their opinions Of the exhibition.
