RAILROAD ACCIDENT WiyaU Attempt to
Destroy Lits.-The express train on the Cleve-
land, Pittsburgh and Wheeling road, which left
this city on Wednesday evening, met with an
accident 10y which the engine aud baggage car
were broken up, the life OF the engineer serious
ly endangered aud one or two others slightly
bruised. As the train was approaching Wells
vile, it came in contact with an obstruction in
the shape of fence rail upon the track, evidently
placed there by some malicious persons to
avenge, by the sacrifice of life and destruction
of property, an imaginary or real wrong The
train was thrown from the track and the engine
and baggage car completely wrecked. The engi-
neer, we are informed was so seriously injured
that he is not expected to live.

Now that nearly all the prominent banks
have suspended specie payment, they occupy
the same relation to each other they did before
their cmbarrassnents began. Much of the in.
convenience experienced by the business public
of late, has resulted from the fact that a portion
of the banks had suspended, while others had
not OfthOse continuing to redeem, too, some
were regarded more doubtful than others
The consequence was, that much of the circula-
ton heretofore current, fell into dscredit, and
ruinous per centage had to be paid to get specie
for bankable bills
The general suspension remedies all that and
restores the former circulation.

INTERESTING TO FAMILIES.

The following extract from New York paper
cannot fail to be interesting. In referring tn -
the receipts Of Teas in this country for one IN
year up to Slth ultimO, il says they will he l2,-l4D
oodoo pounds short Of the imports of the year end
ing June -, 1856, and that
The advance in black teas. OOlOngs, since last
December, has been fifteen cents per pound and
Young Hyson Teas, of low and medium grades,
have experienced an advance of one hundred per
cent. over last seasons closing prices.
1T will thus 5e seen that the strong and rapid
advance IN the tea market has been the result of
short supply and active demand but when il is con-
sldered that we may hear at any moment of the en-
tire suspension of shipments at Shanghai, and in
fact, that as soon a sufficient force from England
arrives at the seat of all Eve ports of entry i'm
China will probably be placed under strict blockade
IL would not be surprising to see Teas at q much
higher figure than they have yet attained"
In view of these facts, we hold out very great in
ducements for families to lay in their supplies of

All reasonable persons, allowed to be favorable

found, In certain constitutions, to inyigorate
both mind and body. 1t seems to give time for
the functions to complete their work. and then
10 rest for while. Fasting, for a moderate De-
mod, diminishes the carbon in the blood. and
thus prevents drowsiness, while promoting n
Tree circulation Of highly vitalized blood through
the brain and as on this kind of supply the
ready power Of the mind depends, a ciearness
and raPldity OF perception may reasonably be
expected under such circumstances. provided
the muscles are not much in demand. Those
who by mental habit can take ADVANTAGE Of this
state may attain the highest ecstasy of medita-
tive abstraction. Probably the greater num-
Der OF persons who think themselves morally
and physically in health, would find how great
~ they are mistaken if they could but be in
duced to bring their appetites more into sub
Jecnon, and wait for something like an urgent
demand for nourishment before they INDUCED

and regularly resOrting to the table three or
Tour times day for the mere qualification of

The business of this Company will compare favor
ably with the most successful similar institutions In
From the LIST day of Augu 1885, in fifteen months
up to the LIST day of November, 1856, the premiums
and interest received amounted to the large sum of
four hundr led thousand one hundred and eighty five
dollars and sixty eight cents, with the ymsnt OF
losses and expenses of one hundred and seventy
seven thousand one hundred and twenty eight dol
lars and sixty lone cents.
With these evidences of success and good man
agement, the Directors feel justified IN soliciting
share of public patronage believing that the security
offered Is ample, and that all fair claims will be ad
lusted more according to equity than legal technical
tiles.
