PITTSBURGH, October 26

From the passengers who arrived here
last evening, we learn that a serious acct
dent occurred at Portage, oil the Rail road.
As Adams & Co.'S express car, heavily
laden, was ascending plane number eight,
and had arrived just at the top Of the plane,
which is twelve hundred yards long. the
car unhitched and descended with fright
full rapidity.
Alarm was given at the foot of the plane
in time for the passengers in the two cars
below to escape; the third car was filled
with ladies, who became so alarmed that
they could not get out, but before the de-
scending car reached them, the engine to
which the cars was attached, was reversed,
and the train started back at a flying rate;
but the engineer became alarmed, and
Jumped off, and left the train to dash on
unguided to plane number nine; fortunate
ly, the car in which the ladies were, be-
came detached, and the locomotive. dash
ed on alone, and down the plane where il
was smashed to pieces.
When the express car struck the cars
from which the passengers had escaped,
the force Of the crash was so great tina,
both the express and baggage car were
completely demolished, and goods scatter.
ed in every direction, and crushed the
passenger car very much.
One person had his ankle broken.

CUBA AND THE CRESCENT CITY

The Baltimore Sun, a paper neutral in
its politics, and proverbially moderate in
its tone, utters the following patriotic re-
Elections upon the late outrage upon the
American vessel by the Havana authorities:
The protest of Lieut.. Porter against the
proceedings of the Cuban officials with
respect to the Crescent City published in
the Sun of yesterday morning, could not
fail to impress every reader with a u
sense of its dignity, consistency and JUS
tice. Admitting the grounds on which IT
is based, there can be no question mat inc
authorities of Cuba have exceeded Proprl.
etv. To what extent the ~magnanimity OF
this great nation may warrant the gener'
Gus construction of such frivolous conduct
on the part OF the alarmed and petulant
Spaniards, it is for this government to de.
termine. But the people of the United
States cannot stultify themselves to the
fact, that an act of national injustice has
been consummated against the rights OF a
portion of their fellow.citizens, and vlrtu'
ally against all. /,
Mr. Purser Smith, the John Jones OIL

charged with the henious offence OF re-
peating in New York, what he saw in Ha'

RUN IN THE GRoUND.-Dr. Milo, Of Vevay,
Ia, eloped the other day with the wife of Mr.,
Jacob C. Smith, The proceedings were
characterized by the greatest GOODNESS on the
part of both the missing ones. The Doctor
borrowed the buggy of Mr. Smith to go, as he
said, to Rising Sun. Mr.. s. kindly gave him
the vehicle, and walked himself into Vevay
for the purpose of presiding at court. On
his return home, he found an affectionate
letter from his wife, stating shat he had al
ways treated her better than she deserved;
she begged him to take care Of little Ruth,
and be as happy as he could" She took one
of her children with her. To steal a mans
wife is bad enough, but to borrow the hus-
bands buggy to carry her off in, is certainly
adding insult to injury" Mr.. Smith has
since heard no tidings of his friend, the Doc
tor, his wife, or his buggy.

Messrs. Seoul d Mead:-Gentlemcn The
Hebrew Plaster is becoming popular in this
section. There is u lady in this county who
saws she would not be without this Plaster for
five hundred dollars year. She was afflicted
for some time with an enlargement of the
spleen, which gave her a great deal Of pain.
The swelling and pain had extended up near,
ly to the armpit, and occasionally she could
scarcely breathe. She was confined for con;
siderable time, during which she was attended
by some our best physicians, but they gave
her no relief. She procured a box OF the He
brew Plaster, and It relieved her almost inn
mediately, and now she keeps supply OF it
on hand constantly. These facts you are dt

substantially true.
