RAIL ROAD ACCIDENT At sALEM.


On Wednesday of last week distressing &C.
cident occurred at Salem, on the o. & P. r..
R. We learn the following particulars from
the Canton Transcript which we presume are
correct;
The evening freight train from the east, 60
nv west, was about out of water when 1t
reached the east switch at Salem the conduc-
tor ordered the locomotive to be uncoupled and
move to he water tank for a supply, leaving
the whole train standing on the main track
The express train, (which was ten minutes be-
hind table time) came along at dusk, and the
engineer says he was unable to see whether the
train was on or off the track, and discovered
the truth when it was too late-the express
engine ran into the hindmost Of the freight cars,
crushing it and the goods it contained into an
almost indistinguishable mass. The cars OF
the express train are literally torn to pieces,
and strange to relate, that so few persons were
injured.
The following is list of the persons injured;
GEO. KNIGHT, Conductor. horribly mangled--
died in three hours after the accident
- Louis, a boy of IS or ID years, from
Rochester, Pa, employed on tbs cars. badly
torn and bruised died yesterday at ten O'Clock

And make thy guiding star that blessed book

Twill shed around thy path holier ray;

Twill beam like sunlight on thy weary way.

The j, yousness and innocence OF birth;
Come, ere thy spirits wings
Are wet with tears, and stained with hues Of

Like tendrils ofthe vino, .
Those deep affections with thy heart inwove,
Must round some prop entwine;
They ask some object Tor their wealth Of love.
