In another case, poor old soldier was paid s55

principle of honesty or humanity such rascally
and unfeeng conduct can be excused, con-
fess am not astlte enough to discover. An

Accident on the Pennsylvania and Ohio Raii
Road
DESCRIPTION OF THE SCENE BY one OF THE PAS

DESCRIPTION OF THE SCENE BY ONE OF THE PAS
sENGERs.
On Monday evening the 3lst ut, as The Fast
Express Train from Pittshurg to Cincinnati
vas turning u curve near Darlington. Pn.,
frightfnl collision took place between this and
the freight train going East. The collision was
81 sudden that no time allowed to apply
the ..brakes." The huge locomotives rushed
upon each other as in deadly conflict, and hav-
ing spent their giant power in one onset, sank
together upon the track a common mass of ru.
ms The freight train received comparatively
little injury--not so the other. The bag
gage car passed entirely through the first pas
senger car-the bottom of the former passing
just above the floor of the latter. sweeping. in
the twnkliDg OF an eye. every seat from It's
rlace. and crowding passengers, baggage. stoves
and broken pieces of timber in space not large
enough for one car. The conclusion was felt
but for few seconds, and all was still except
the fierce kissing Of the escaping steam. Al
most instantly the shrieks ofdyng men were
heard far above the noise of the crushed engines.
Three or four men lay off to one side. in the
snow--some with broken arms. others with
shattered legs and bruised bodies, crying in
piercing tones Of agony for help. Just a'ove
the front end of the second passenger car. where
n great mass of fragments had been mashed up.
three men were seen, two Of them held up by
their legs the third showing out of the mass of
ruins hut his head and hand crushed, and black
from congestiye blood. Poor fellow, death gave
him time for agony.
Near to these but on the other side fthe
cars, stood brave man Matthew Kolt-one
leg broken and his right arm held firmly beneath
the heavy timbers of the bottom Of the baggage
cnr resting upon the front of the second passen-
ger car. He uttered no complaint, though his
leg was broken and his arm literally ground to
pieces; nearly an hour elapsed before he could be
released. yet he showed no Impotence and let no
groan escape his lips. The other two men were
almost equally brave. enduring their long con
tinement with remarkable foritude. The ofli-
GERS of the trains, assisted by some of the pas
sengers. exeried almost superhuman efforts 10
extricate the wounded and to place them in the
unbroken cars;hut SO firmly were the ruins press
ed together that it was probably not less than
an hour before all were taken out The cries of
the wounded for phvscian-,forw ater,for warmth,
aud for wives and sisters, were sufficient to rend
the stnutest heat.
One poor man. whose throat had been cut
either by splinter or by broken glass, was laid
upon the floor Of the ear. and afterwards propped
upon iwoor three seats. bat his suifrrngs did
