Another Awful Railroad Accident.

COLLISION BETWEEN TWO TRAIss-THEEE PERSONS
kILLED-sEvERAL HORRIBLY WOUNDED, ETC.
About O'Clock last evening. fatal collision took
place on the New York and New Haven RAILROAD, ut
Mount Vernon, two miles and half from New Rochelle
between the freight train going up and the passenger
train coming down.
Three persons he down train instantly killed,

One unfortunate man precipitsted from the cars
into sand bank, by which his face was awfuly lace
rated and he was seriously injured internally.
II is said that the poor brakeman who killed had
but short time previously exchanged places with feL
low workman another train in order that the latter
might have the pleasure Of spending the Sabbath with
his family in Bridgeport.
The cause Of this melancholy catastrophe said to
have the failure of the freight train to remain at
Williams Bridge, is customary until the passenger
train had passed down. Instead Of waiting, the freight
train passed up very swiftly in endeavor to reach
New Re cbelle before meeting the down train
AT the time of the collision 1t is asserted that the up
freight train going at the rate Of thirty five miles
hour, and the shock intense that of the
cars on the down train completely turned up its

Fun AnxAp-Dr. Brsndrsth, it appears, is abou.

Fun AhEAD.-Dr. Brsndreth, it appears, ID about
to admin lister dose Of his vegetable pills 10 the
wire pullers of the democratic party. He intends
TO put them through not course of sprouts" but
course of pills, purely vegetable, and warranted
not to contain any mineral. The doctor, it aP'
pears, did not give satisfaction to those amiabe and
patriotic gentlemen, and, accordingly, they de-
feated his nomination as Senator from the Seventh
district The objection is, that he did not resign
with the other democratic members, who left their
seats in order to defeat the passage of the Canal
bill during the last session of the Legslat are. This
treatment has excited the doctors dander, and ne
turrs round, snaps his finger at the nominating
convention, and takes the stump on his own hook,
in opposition to the regular candidate. The doc
tors representation OF his grievances is very pa
thetc, and if it do not move the hearts of his
stituents it will be because they are callous, and
eanIot be moved. He says
"In Offering myself TO your SURFACES fellow citizens
Ii lie that desirous of going TO Albany my
pleasure or preft 1t is pleasing and more profit able
remain he but il is that the sovereign peo
pie, hall say whether acted tight or wrong upon the
quetion Of the resgnston Of the twelve Senators op
posed that | did so from principle L let
down by packed convention, when assured that
bat instead OF that, am let down and the
signed is that did OF resign So because faithful
to my trust am TO be let down"
1t is really too bad that the doctor should be let
down" in this way. He evidently thinks so too,
and accordingly desires that his constituents should
set him on his pins again Well, We have no ob-
lection. There are worse men than DR.. Brandreth
in the ranks of the democratic party AT all events
the circumstance promises some fun at the mex.
election and we shall watch the struggle with good

CAN THE ETHIOPIAN CHANGE HIS SKIN when
bail required the other day for the persons who
we're committed for trial the charge of rescuing
the fugitive slave, Jerry, from the officers who had
him in custody by legal process in Syracuse, the
notorious aboltionist, William II. Seward, stepped
forward and went the necessary bail He signed
three bonds. Now, giving bail, as general thing,
is not discredtable proceeding; but it is discred-
able for Mr.. Sc ward, under the circumstances, to
connect himself with that case in such manner.
His object, no doubt, was to evince his sympathy
with the accused parties, and his concurrence ID a
certain extent, with the in violating the law OF the
land But, doubtless, he had another for sign
ing the bail bonds. He knew very well, that the
Syracuse outrage the natural effect of his aboi-
ton teachings ard he could not do lees than give his
assistance in getting the victims of his docsrioes
out Of the difficulty which they had got into through
him.
