RAILROAD DISASTERS.

And yet another! They are daily incidents.
The engines the wheels, the cars the roads
none of these are at fault The trains are out
of time and the inevitable collision takes
place.
We sicken ss we read these narratives of
slaughter. and hope that each may prove the
last. But it affords no admonition. Indeed,
it appears that even in things most horrible
and revolving, the influence of imitation is
overpoweripg the mind dwe!ls upon the dis
aster until tbs desire is awakened to encoun-
ter the same periIs aud shew the ability to es-
cape. This. it has often been remarked, is
the case with reference tc the preparation of
great crimes. Forgery. murdar, house barn.
ing and other outrages, appear at times to
prevail like epidemics. Aud it is surely so
with these accidental disasters. How quick
the Norwalk bridge tragedy followed after
like occurrence in New Jersey.
The papers tell us we should adopt safe
guards for the future. The Intelligencer of
yesterday thinks that there should always be
two tracks. We think that the past errors,
crimes. omissions, accidents, or whatever they
are, should be punished. Punish every one
in any respect and to any degree at fault, and
punish we'll; but above all, punish the com.
papies in the tender point of their pucunary
interests. There is where the work ofreform
is to be effected. Prudence and care will
follow hard upon such penalty; and no other
penalty, as we firmly believe, is adequate to
work out reform.
Double tracks and other safeguards may be
talked over at another moment. Retribution
is what now Occupies the public mind. - Clip
