Railroad ReChIessuesS.

A serious accident occurred on the Cleve.
land and Erie Railroad, on Friday afternoon
last, near Kipgsrille, Ohio, about forty miles
west Ut Erie. The rain had caused some
slides Of gravel and sand over the track
The engineer dashed through two of these
safely and attempted to pass through anoth-
er in the same reckless manner, but was not
SO fortunate. The locomotive ran on the
track, taking with it the tender, two baggage
cars and oue passenger car, which were TO-
tally wrecked. They piled up IN q heap by
the side of the track, 40 lndistinguishsble
mass of ruins; or, Ms one Of the passengers
said, "smashed into kindling wood The
engineer was fosnd under the ruins of the
tonder, and though at first supposed to be
dead, was taken out alive aud is in a fair
way to recoser. The engineer on being ia
ken out said, why | went through two such
slides, | don't see Why IN the thunder
couId'n. get through that" Ten of the pas
seogers were more or less injured-two OF
them 40 seriously that it was thought they
could not live.

Tn. Con,.u for Governor.

The West is nearly unanimously in favor
Of Letcber, while the opposition 10 him
comes principally from the East, AID 10 this
state OF the case a sectional contest in the
nominating Convention is not improbable
Democrats in this region tell US they will
never consent that Letcher shall be ruled OF
the track-that his rejection, for the reason
alleged against him, would be a stigma cas-.
upon the whole West. The East asserts that
his nomination, under the circumstances
would be a stigma cast upon them aud the
State at large. Sc we 20. On the whole we
ratber incline to think that Mr.. Letcber will
be tricked out Of the nomination.. The ua-
iori,y of the voters Of the State, we believe,
are for him; but a majority Of the politicians
arc either attached to o,he. asPirants, or
ashamed to nominate a Candidate who Is lla-
BILE to the same objection they urged against
Summer-and the politicians will pull the
wiree.-SaWton Spectator.

The platform was about five feet from the

three feet wide, extending along the entire
south SIDE OF the platform, attached TO 1t oy
hinges, allowing it to swing down readily
when unsupported. Some fifteen thousand

ton.
After the religious exercises were tinistei

and resigned. The rope WAS fastened t. til

to the back end of the platform. The prison.

Again he was carried upon the platform
and upon the trap door supported, stagger-

the fatal rope was adjusted, when the sheriff
asked hin, "Do you still adhere to your state

respectiyeiy--yct they are in all respects
symmetrically made, healthy and happy
children, able to talk, sing, dance and play
like other children Of their age. What is re-
markable about these little FAIRIES, moreover,
is the fact that their father and mother are

younger brother and sister 3 and 6 years Of

their ages. They are a much greater curios.

They will not be made a pubic exhibition,

81 pounds each at the time of their birth,
aud continued to grow like other children un-
til about the age Of eighteen months when
the arret du ~decejopement began. They each

Falling of IN Emigration.

For the frs, time in the history of emigra-
ton to the U. States from the British islands,
there is now q preponderance in the move
ment towards Australia aud Canada, over
tina, to ards these shores. The official returns
made up in England show that for the FIRST
three months Ut 1858 the aggregate number
Of emigrants from Great Britain was $4,000,
of whom $500 were bound for the United
States, against 6.726 for the corresponding
period of 1857. Or the rest, 1857 were for
the Australian colonies.
Emigration for all parts of the world has
no. been Of 90 low q figure for fifteen years
past, as it now is.
Ii attained it's maximum figure in 1853,
when it reached 372. 725. This was reduced
to less than ope-half in 1857, when the emf
grafton only reached some 10000. The
commercial difficulties that have affected all
GLASSES of our people within the last twelve
mouths have co-operated with other causes,
Soma Of them of . permanent nature, to check
the influx Of smigrants.--M. T. Herald.

ity of the Government, not only to CONTRACT,
but to pay off by purchase its public loans:

The Cable Is IL Open!

1t has been generelly understood that the
Atlantic cable would be open to the public use
on the Is, Of September, and in authorization
of that event, the demonstrations and iliupl'
nations 10 this country were fixed for that day,
For some cause not explained here, this au-
,icipation has not been realized. Our COL
umns contain this morning a despatch pur-
porting TO have been sent from L2ndoh yes
tcrday, announcing to Mr.. Field that the
English directors OF the Telegraph Company
were on their way to Valeptia TO make ar
rangements for opening the wire to the public.
What these arrangements are We are lett to
surmise; for we cannot imagine any other ar
rsngement to be necessary than for the al
rectors to give notice to the public that the
line is open, and to order the operators to Tor
ward ell the dispatches otered.-Cn Union.
