DREADFUL DISASTER AND Loss OF LIFE ON THE
ILLINOIS CENTRAL RArLRoAp.-The Chicago Press
gives the following particulars of the fghtful aeei-
dent which took place on the morning of the 26th
ult near La Sale, on the Illinois Central Railroad
About O'Clock in the morning, the gravel train.
loaded with laborers, who worked along the line,
started for La Sale southwark. The train crossed
the bridge all right, and the engine came on to the
ebankment on the other side of the bridge it all at
once gave way and the whole train was precipitated
distance of probably twenty-five feet. -Four men
were killed on the spot, and one died few hours
atterward. Eight others severely injured some
with broken legs arms etc. The engineer and fire.
man escaped with their lives, though somewhat in.
jured. The marvel is that so many escaped.
The heavy rains of last Sunday, along with the
general thaw that ensued, had so softened the en-
bankment that it appeared soft and so incapable of
bearing up train the sofest kind of mud. When
the engine off the bridge it seemed .s if it
had fallen over a preciplce.

CONVICTION OF A PHYSICIAN FOR ROBBING HIS
PATIENT.-A most singular trial has lately taken
place in Montreal. DR.. Jean Baptste Theophle Do
lion, person of gentemany appearance, of standing
rnd position in society," and in the possession of wealth
to the amount of upwards of $4,000, was charged
with stealing silver spoons, two promssory notes for
$lOO, gold headed cane, and six books from Doctor
Donan, (whom he attended in his last illness) on the
day of his DEATH The alleged theft took place on the
24th ofJune, 1851 nearly years ago. and the chief
witnesses were two brothers of the prisoner who saw
the goods taken, The accused said that the charge
was the result of conspiracy to ruin him, but the
jury, atteran absence ofve minutes found him guilty.
When the verdict was announced the prisoner stag
sered in the dock, and was ashy pale The sentence
has not yet been pronounced.

The NATIONAL ARM0RY AT HARPER's Ferry
From letter Of the slst ut. in the Baltimore Sum,
written from Harper's Ferry, Va, extract the fol-
lowing: - y f-a1t 3- :"
The Government Armory is extensive and well fur
nished, capable of turning out from fourteen to
eighteen thousand stand of muskets and rifles
per annum. About three hundred artizans are now
employed in the manufacture of what is called the
rifemusket and the rifle. These are both newly i'm
proved arms and in all respects far superior to those
recently in our service. The riaamusket possesses
all the attributes of the late musket with the addition
of being rifed gun and having selfpfimDg lock.
The ball projectile for this is elongated with
conical point and will make better shooting at dis
tance of one thousand yards than the former smooth
bored musket will at three hundred yards.
The new rife is also greatly improved over the old
by having the selfpriming lock, the improved rfing
and the addition of sword-bayo latter is to
protect our rifemen from charge Of cavalry as well
| as side arm.

A GREAT RAoE-The sporting men Of the city of
New York and Albany have been on the qui rire for
some time past in regard to hundred mile race be-
tween two horses, which off Monday the 3Oth
lars side and condition of the race was that nei
ther animal should feed or rest on the way. The
horses, one from New York and the other from AL
hany started from the latter city at five o'clock in the
post, at halfpast five in the aftemoon-thus accom-
pshing the distance in twelve and half hours aver
aging just eight miles an hours. The New York
horse was the winner, but his competitor was not
more than quarter of mile in the rear. This per-
formance furnishes probably one of the most remark
able instances of endurance in the horse on record
but it is painful to reflect the suHarngs which the
noble steeds must have endured

MARINE DIsAsTER.-We learn from Capt. Slater,
of the ship Georges, which arrived about 10 o'clock
on Sunday night last that during the severe blow the
ship Resolute, Capt. Prince, hence for Rotterdam,
parted her chain, and came down striking the ships
Black Sea and Bowditch and causing considerable
damage to them. The Black Sea had her bow.
spirit carried away also her top-gallantmas seriously
damaged. The Bowditch had her bowsprit carried
away, and otherwise considerable damaged. The
Resoute was so badly damaged to be compelled to
return to the city for repairs

DISEASES TO WHICH RAILWAY ENGINEERS ARE
SUBJEcT-At one of the late sittngs of the Academy
OF Medicine, NJ de Martinez communicated note rel
atiye to an affection peculiar to engine drivers and
strokers employed on the railways. The Gazette des
Hopaur in alludng to the subject, states that these
men have their respiration affected by passing through
the strong current of air and that the nhaling of the
oxyde gas and the carbonic acid which escapes from
the fireplace affects their nervous system, and fire.
quently deprves them of that presence of mind which
is necessary for who have the lives of thousands
of persons in their hands. The paper recommends
the directors of the different lines to reduce the labor
of these two classes of servants by doubling their uun-
ber and to adopt the plan OF protecting frame work
over their heads.
