FURTHER PARTICULARS OF The RAILROAD
ACCIDENT NEAR FRANKFORT, KENTUcKY-We
noticed yesterday, the particulars of shocking acci.
dent caused by the giving way of bridge the Louis
vile and Frankfort Railroad. We copy from the Lou
syie Democrat of Monday, the following further par
ticuIars.
On Friday afternoons while the hands were pushing
some movable shanties the bridge over Benson
near Frankfort, the bridge, which was of cast iron
gave way, and the whole fell with crash, killing in
stantly two men, Edmund Bacon, of Frankfort Johr
Franey, laborer, and white woman who cooked fol-
the aborers, not ascerained. Some eight or ter
others were hurt, several badly, and one had his leg
crushed that is feared he cannot recover who har
been brought down the Hospital Several were pre-
cpitated into the creek, who escaped with wet jackets
1t had been intended to with the LOCOMOTIVES but
some delay had been occasoned, and some wenty men

much more serious disaster. The front shanty was

RIOT AND BLooDsHED AT IIoBoKEN, n. Y The
beautiful village of oboken, the North River, was
the scene Of most serious and disgracelu riot Mon
day afternoon.
The New Yo.k Commercial Advertiser says, s'The
German residents of New York city have for some years
past been in the habit of celebrating annual festival
on the Goth Of May and several thousands of them with
their wives and children, proceeded yesterday to the
Elysan Fields Hoboken, for the purpose of observ
ing this national custom. The Zurn-verein, gyunas
tic society," the Liederkranz musical society," and sew
era other German associations, participated in the cell
ebration.
All seems to have gone on well enough until about
three O'Clock, when fight commenced between some
OF the Germans and party of boys, who attempted to
steal the refreshments which had been provided, and
otherwise annoy those who had assembled together
for their own amusement. There are many stories
afoat the ground this morning, to the origin of
the ARRAY, attribung blame to the one party and
the Others but there very little doubt that the
first provocation with those who inerered in the
diversions Of those who were amng themselves after
the custom of their former country. The subsequent
conduct of the Germans, however, was violent in the
extreme.
The scene Of this part of the fight was something
more than aJme from the ferry landing, and had it
ceased there, it would have been comparatively we'll
But sort of running fight appears to have been kept
up all the way from the fields to the village.
The final and most serious conflict took place within
few hundred yards of the ferry. The Germans had
possession of the open space Immediately contiguous to
the pathway the fields, and in front of Otto's Cot
tage, while their assaants mustered in large numbers
along the parallel Hackensack road. 1t was at this
spot that the only life that we know certainly to be
taken was lost.
This was ship carpenter named Martin Bridges,
who worked in one of the adjoining yards, and who
had taken no part whatever in the proceedings. He
was proceeding quietly home from his work, when he
was set upon by of the Germans and literally
beaten to death. His scul we believe, was fractured
and he received various other injuries He was mar

Three other persons, resident of Hoboken were bad

any danger Of their lives These are Justice Brown.

The riot was finally queled by the military from Jei.

were arrested and lodged in Jail.
The whole number of the wounded could not be as
certaned up to the time of the New York papers going
to press on Tuesday 1t is thought that several Other
persons have been killed, will die Of their wounds.

ELECTION IN New YoRK.-An election took place
in New York Tuesday, to fill the vacancies in ten of
the Senatorial Districts in that State. The vacancies
were occasioned, our readers aware, by the
gnaton of the Senators, to prevent the passage of the
bill for the enlargement of the canal The bill was con-
sdered by them as unconstitutional and their resigna-
ton sort of appeal to the people the question.
1t will probably turn out that where the interests of the
people considered opposed to the enlargement
they will have sustained the Senators; but where they
would be promoted by it, the result viii be otherwise
The New York Tribune of yesterday, claims the cleo.
ton of three wings, certainly, and probably more
out of the twelve districts, that it will give the friends
of the enlargement certain majority in the Senate
The districts in which wings supposed to be GER
tainly elected, the Oneida, the Oswego and Madi
son, and the Douglass and Columbia.

WHY DO You PUT ASHES ON CoRN!-The above
question was put the other day by far ner, who
stated that several years ago, heapped ashes to field
of corn and it seemed to increase the crop wonderfully
Last year he ''ashed his corn on another field, and it
did not appear to do any good.
We put ashes on corn to supply the crop with potash
Corn requires pretty large proportion of potash to
form the kernel. Hence one why we generally
get such good crops 'burnt ground" as the new
clearings are called When the soil does not contain
potash sufficient for the crop, application OF
ashes is of great use it. Il there is already sufi.
cient supply of potash in the soil, the application OF
ashes does not manifest any beneficial effects. This
was probably the case with friends soil. The first
field undoubtedly deficient in potash, and hence the
good effects of ashes.

important item in its composition.
