TERRIBLE AND FATAL RAILROAD ACC1DESr.-The
ST. Louis Democrat of the l7h has the following ac-
count of railroad accident by which the fireman of
the train was killed, and several of the passengers in
jured, some of them seriously:
On Saturday evening, about o'clock as the west.
ward-bound passenger train on the Terre Haute
Alton and st. Louis Railroad had reached a point
about one mile from Bunker Hill ILL.,. the locomotive
broke through bridge which was constructed over a
small creek or rayine The baggage and express cars
were at the same time precipitated beyond the en-
glne, and down steep embankment into the ravine
The car next the emigrant car, containing a mum.
ber OF ladies and gentlemen, fell in after the engine
and was turned up on its forward end. At the time
OF the accident hard thunder storm was prevailing,
which added to the terror of the occasion. Another
thing which contributed to the dsmay of the pas
Sengers, was the communication of fire to q portion
| OF the train by the explosion of the engine The
| ttanes notwithstanding the rain, were spreading
rapidly but by the exertions Of the passengers were
| subdued.
AS if the heavens had conspred to add terror and
death to the scene, little girl the daughter of Mr..
Temper was struck by lightning just after the ex,
plosion OF the engine took place, and Immediately
| killed. We did not learn whether she had been a
passenger on the train resident in the neghbor.

Another account states that the girl was struck by
lightning after the accident but short distance
from where it took place.

A CITIZEN OF GALVESTON ARRESTED FOR Po.
L1T1CAL OFFENCE IN RussIA.-We regret to learn
that Rev. Renry Wendt of this city, who has lately
been travelling in Europe, and who is native Of
Russian Poland, has been arrested in that country
for an alleged political offence committed ten years
ago in the too free expression of republican senti
ments. Mr. Wendt returned on a visit to his native
land, relying for protection not only upon an Amer,
can passport, he having become citizen of the
United States, but upon the general amnesty and
pardon proclaimed by the Emperor of Russia for
otenses of the kind with which he is charged. Mr..
W. is man Of great practical benevoence and piety.
He has proved himself a truly good citizen, and we
shall rejoice to learn OF his speedy release and gladly
welcome him, and any other such persons may be
obnoxious to the Autocrat of all the Russas to a
place in our midst. Mr.. Wendt has been employed
while in Galveston, not only Pastor of the Evan.
geljc Lutheran Church, but in teaching large and
well.conducted school. He has probably done more
for the cause of education than any man in Geves-
ton. He was active and devoted member of the
Howard Association during the two last epdemics in
this city, At the time of his arrest his family were
with him. and were sent back by the Russian authori
ties to their native place in Switzerland.

Louisiana Intelligence.

From the Concordia Intelligencer of Friday last
we extract the following:
After several extremely hot days, Tuesday evening
was distinguished bya change of cool wind from the
north, arising from thunderstorm that ragged as
our packets report, from Vicksburg as low down as
Rodney. On Wednesday evening our vicinity had
the same compliment paid it by a rousing thunder
shower.
The corn crop is made-and glorious one it is
oo-whie all the clouds that lour over the fate of
the ocean buried" The corn.fodder crop has been
nearly destroyed by the rains which interrupted and
prevented the curing process.
The cotton at present in our vicinity would indi-
cate by its appearance that there would be no pick
ing for long month to come And then it may turn
out small pichngs The phni is so much better salts
fed with its verdant growth, it scarcely can wait to
form either blossom or boil. We notice that the
lower formations of bols low down on the plant, are
imperfect and falling off. The higher show the same
immature and imperfect state of the blossoms while
midway Gu the plant, the appearance is more encour.
aging, but by no means promising more than half a
crop, if the autumn rosts should hold off until
the middle of November.
The Claiborne Advocate of the 1lth says:
Contrary to our prediction, the weather for the
greater part of the past week was unusually bright
and pleasant for the season. The crops have suffered
somewhat from the recent heavy rains, but are doing
well as general thing.
The Jackson parish Times of the 18th says:
The atmosphere is damp the clouds lowering and
we have unmistakabe evidences of an impending
flood on small SCALE even while the farmers are
crying, with uplitted voices Enough enoughr'
Cotton is shedding very fast, but this by some, is
said to be no bad omen as cotton will make much
no matter how many squares and bolls are dropped
We think differently for, if all the bolls made were
to fall otf-or, to make plain thing palmer, how
much cotton is left cotton stalk minus the bolls
Corn is maturing rapidly, aud the yield will be
| abundant.
The Houma Ceres of Saturday last says:
During the first part of the week the weather was
dry and clear, and the roads were fast drying up
Not so now; old Aquarius again paid US his accns
toned visits, and judging from appearances, we will
have more rain yet.

COMMERCIAL WATER.W WoRKs.-As the public NAV
have been somewhat annoyed by the stoppage of the
water for few hours on Sunday morning, L deem it
proper to explain the cause.
At the fall of the river to low water the batture in
front of our Works had so much increased as to
make it necessary to extend the supply pipes eighty
feet further into the river which has been done at
very large expense and in very substantial manner
but to connect the new work with the old it was
necessary to stop the water for few hours The
work is now completed, and the supply from this time
will be much more abundant than it has been fo,
years.
