QUITE HAUL.-Oficer johnson while
executing a search warrant yesterday morning,
discovered in the canal boat "Glazebrook," owned
by Edward O. Gooeh of Fluvanna, and run by a
man named Ben Le,ois one pair of pants, one vest,
and lady's frock, which have been identified by
the owner He also found nine silk or fur hats,
nearly all of them new, with the word Goodman
written in pencil on most OF them These hats
were no doubt stolen from some of our merchants
who can readily recover them by calling on officer
johnson. Ben Lewis, the captain of the boat, will
doubt be tried for his connection with the goods
and it is not all improbable that other parties may
be implicated in the transaction. How he came by
them, has not yet been ascertained.

Police Court.

SATURDAY, Nov. 4.
BEFORE Judge Grecn.-Margaret Clancy was
Brought up OH the charge OF stealing a skirt
from Bridget McGrath. The evidence did
not sustain the allegation, and she was dis
charged.
John B. Moulton, of North Oxford, was
brought up for interrupting and disturbing,
on the 9th Of October last. the exercises of
the public school kept by Mr.. VIM. S. Wood,
at No. Oxford.
Il appeared in evidence that Moulton was
not satisfied with the arrangements of the
teacher in relation to the location of his, Moul-
toms. daughters seat. He therefore went to
the school house, during the forenoon session
of the school, and in rude, opprobrious, in
sulting, and profane language, demanded that
the teacher should alter his arrangements to
suit the tastes Of Miss Moulton. Mr.. Wood
refused to do so, and referred Mr.. Moulton to
the School Committee, at the same time tell
ing him to leave the school and not interrupt
him. Mr.. NJ. finally left.
The Court, after ably summing up, and
reading Mr.. Moulton valuable lecture on the
duty of parents to sustain the authority of the
teacher, and to treat him with respect, fined
the defendant IS and costs. He appealed,
and was ordered to give bonds in the sum OF
500 to appear before the Court of Common
Pleas at the next January term.

Chicago, No0. 3d.-TERRIBLE RAILROAD
ACCOMPLISHMENT PERSONS KILLBD.-The
passenger train for Rock Island, which left
Chicago at IL O'Clock, on Wednesday night,
met with most frightful accident, caused by
the breaking of an axletree of the engine,
when near Minoka station the result, it is
said, of running over a horse on the track
The engine and portion or all Of the cars
were thrown with great violence from the
track, breaking the ribs of the engineer, and
killing or wounding, and scalding from thirty
to forty first class passengers. The citizens Of
Joliet promptly rendered all the assistance in
their power to the wounded. Physicians who
were present say that at least ten or twelve of
those scalded will die within twenty-four
hours. At the latest accounts, all the suffer
ers had been removed to large stone build
ing on Scott street, in the village of Joliet,
and the employees of the Railroad Company,
as well as the citizens Of the village, were
using every effort to alleviate their sufierings
1t appears that when the engine was thrown
off the track the two forward passenger cars
were hurled on top of it, and the steam escap-
ing was driven with tremendous force through
the dense mass of human beings, packed close
ly amongst the wreck of the cars.
The engineer, w. G. Brown. was fearfully
scalded. His brother, acting as fireman, had
both legs broken. A gentleman named Car
penter, from Poughkeepsie, N. Y, was terrib-
ly burned and scalded J. w. Albion, Of Nor
gan County, Ohio, was also severely scalded.
Several names not clearly Gscertained follow
them.) Mrs. Cox, of Washington County,
Iowa, severely injured; Catharine Loughlin,
do, very seriously injured Margaret Laugh
lin of 6 ettysburgh, Pa, seriously, ifnot fatal
ly injured. We have been unable to learn
the names of the other sufferers, but are as
sured, OH what we have reason to believe to
be respectable authority, that the whole num-
Der of passengers who were seriously wound
ed is not under forty. The Conductor of the
train, MIR. Van Burket, escaped with but very
slight injury. At 10 o'clock yesterday fore
noon, several of those who were scalded re-
NAMED insensible, and others were writing
in their last agonies.
