The Maine Law.

Perhaps no better evidence exists OF
the unfortunate condition of the Buch
aneers, and their trepidation and appre
hension as to the results of the pending
contest than their desperate efforts &c
drag in issues havingnot the most remote
reference to the real issues now before
the people. Seeking as they do the estab
lishment and perpetuity in the govern
ment of the most despotic and abomin
able principles that they should seek te
avoid all discussion of those principles
and drag in others, not having the least
reference to the real state of the case, is
not strange. But can any person be de.
ceived by such transparent humbug.
Whatever we, or any person else may
at one time have thought of the Maine
Law or may now think of it, every hon
est man and man of sense knows that
at present, it is no more involved in this
strife than are the doctrines of the book
of Koran. The Legislative Assembly
of this State, with only three dissenting
votes, indefinitely postponed the consid
Grafton of a bill involving the principles
of the Maine Law, and we are not aware
that any person either in the Legislature
or out of it, desires now to open up OIL
discuss that question.
What the future may have in store
we cannot tell any better than any per
son else. AT present, Maine Law mer
and anti-Maine Law men are united on
both sides, in relation to present issues,
and should the question of enacting such
a law ever again come up in this state,
it will not be until voters have abundant
warning and abundant time to organize
themselves with reference to it.

EDS. TRIB. & TEL.-DEAR SIRs:-
1t is my painful duty to again advise
you of the death in this county of late
citizen of your city, and through the me-
dunn of your paper, to convey the pain
full intelligence to the friends of the de-
ceased, with whose address | am umac-

W. III. CHEEsEBRoUGH died yesterday
about ten O'Clock in the morning in the
hospital Of Doct. Yatliff. The imme-
date cause of the death was lock-iaw.
Three weeks ago yesterday, he fell into
the thresher of a large eight horse
threshing machine, which mashed his
left leg to atoms. Doct. Yatliff was
called and took him to his own house,
amputated his leg, and gave him every
attention which skillful surgeon could,
both by professional skill and procuring
the attention of faithful nurses. He
was amongst friends and lacked nothing
for attention, but all to no avail. My
residence being 40 miles distant from
him, prevented my hearing of his disas-
ter in time to see him. He died at 10

Robertson, very particular friend of
mine, says he was frequently with
Cheesebro', during his sickness, from
whom / derive most of my information,
relative. to the attention paid to Mr.. G.
by the Doct., which combined with
his unusually acknowledged skill,
assured me that every thing was done
that could be, to save the life of the pa
tent.
| In my communication to you advising
you of the death of Lewis, think l gave
the wrong day of the month, but the
week was correctly stated. This was
owing to my own confinement to sick
bed at the time, from which cause |
thought it little later in the year than
! it really was. The error, if any, was of
but two or three days. Mr.. Cheesebro'
was formerly, | believe, in the employ
of John Bullen Jr.
Respectfully yours,

Terrible Accident ON the Michigan Sout h.
ern Rail Road.

ern Rail Road.
On last Saturday evening, between 6
and7 O'Clock, a terrible accident occurred
on the Southern Michigan Rail Road,
about mile this side of the crossing of
the New Albany and Salem Rail Road.
From what we can learn it appears that
a construction train, with an engine and
two caboose cars filled with Irish labor
ers, was endeavoring to get into La
porte before the freight train comingw
should leave the station; the engineer
of the construction train having under
stood, in some way, that the freight train
was so much behind time that he would
be able to reach it there. This informa-
ton, it appears, was incorrect, and the
two trains came in collision at the place
above stated, both going at rapid rate.
The crash was awful, and resulted in
killing outright, eight of the laborers,
and badly wounding some twenty 9TH
ers. Both engines were smashed; and
also the caboose cars, twenty freight
cars, and three new engines which were
being brought on for the Chicago and
Rock Island Railroad. The tender of
the engine attached to the construction
train was forced back into the last ca
boose car. The engineer and firemen
of both trains jumped off and escaped
injury. AS soon as the accident occur
ed, the engineer of the construction train
ran into the woods, and has not been
heard of since. The track was badly
torn up, and the passenger trains delay
ed some hours Chicago, Tribune.
