The Wabash Gazette, of last week is full
of accounts of accidents by railroad, sui
eide, &c The first is terrible railroad
accident, which occurred two miles west
of Wabash. 1t seems that two Irishmen,
by the name Of White and Sullivan, were
standing on bridge, and not needing the
approaching train, were run against by the
cars, knocked off of the bridge on to the
rocks below, and were both instantly killed.
Also the death Of Mr.. John Hubbard, by
the kick Of horse. The suicide Of Mrs.
Catharine A. Rodgers, supposed to be
caused by taking Sacrament, and on reflec-
ton, came to the conclusion she had com
mitted great sin, not being worthy of So
doing, and would put an end to her exist
ence by hanging. And lastly. of the fall
ing Of the walls of two brick buildings, in
which event Mr. Walmsly and team bare
