FROM WASHINGTON CITY.

WASHINGTON, July Clone Of the
sufferers by the Zuloaga taxation move.
ment had, this morning, an interview
with the President on the subject. 1t
is understood that he will make an af-
fidavit of all the facts in the case, and
file it in the State Department. Act
ing under the advice of Mr.. Forsyth,
he refused to pay the tax, and was com
PEELED to leave Mexico.
1t is not probable that Mr.. Forsyth
would have been directed to withdraw
the Legation had he not previously ter
minated his connection with the Go
vcrnment Of Mexico.
There is good reason to believe, from
recent information, that our govern
ment is now in fair way to acquire
Cuba. This information is derived from
an unquestionable source.

An Obstacle to Matrim0uy.

One of the great social evils Of this
age is admitted to be the reluctance of
our young men to early marriages.
They won't marry now, we are told, as
they used to do, and ought to do, on
$500 q year. Depend upon it, in
many and many case, it is not the
odd hundred or two that is wanting
it is the great attraction. We have
lost that joyous and familiar intercourse
between ncighbors' families, whore
youngpeople's Municipalities had space
and opportunity to devclope themselves,
and heart met heart. Our modish Gu
pid has overstrung his bow-his arrows
don't hit home. Young ladies hide
away the key Of their hearts so care
fully that nobody think it worth look
ing for. Who is to choose como" out
of bevy of proper behaved damsels,
like a row of hollyhocks, differing only
in height, and shape, and color !
They all look alike, dress alike, and
for anything that appears to the con-
trary, think alike and feel alike. Why,
such choice is an act Of deliberate in
tentlon--matrimony prcpcnse. Few
men have the nerve to venture upon it,
No wonder they calculate the probable
butchers and bakers bills before they
made plunge like that. Don't fancy
that | talk like comical old bird, not
to be caught with chaff. / take as the
exponent of what my own feelings
would be if | were young, and open as
L once was to the convict Of bright eyes,
my nephew, Jack Hawthorne, not long
home from the Crimca, six feet ono, in
dependencies hairy Skycterrier, brave
as lion, CLASPS for Alma and Bala-
clayo,) gentle as greyhound, and /

"What | missed most said he in his
open.hearted, unabashed simplicity,

days in tho smoking.room Of the Army

said Jack, interjectivcly, between the
purs Of his Guilty, "but thcro are no

Terrible Railroad Accident-S;x
Persons Kisied-AbOHt nfty
Wounded

Another terrible destruction of hu.
man life and limb occurred on Thurs.
day night on the Erie Railroad, near
Port Jervis. The 5 p. m. express train
for Dunkirk, when six miles east of
Port Jeryis and about three minutes
walk from Shin Hollow Watering Sta.
ton, encountered broken rail in the
track. The engine, tender, baggage
car and three passenger cars, passed
over the gap in safety; but the two
last passenger cars swung off tho track,
and after running OF the track about
twenty-five rods, the coupling parted,
and they were hurled down q dcclivi-
ty thirty feet deep to tic meadows
below. Before reaching the bottom the
cars turned over twice the first time
the sides were burst open, and sui Sc.
quontly they were split up into minute
pieccs,and their human contents strcwn
about the greensward wounded, dying
and dead. AS soon as it could be
DONE train was checked and backed,
and the horror stricken inmates of the
other cars hurried to the rescue of the
injured. Both of the overturned cars
were full of passengers, and the con-
sequences of the disaster were most APP
paling. Five persons were instantly
killed.
The ruins of the cars were all blood
stained, and seemed to be instinct with
life, as scores of people, suffering from
every conceivable form of mutilation,
crawlcd from under their fragments.
AS soon as it could be accomplished,
the victims Of the disaster were borne
to the cars, when their wounds were
temporarily bound up, and the train
set off for Port Jervis. On arriving
there, they were immediately carried
to the hotels, and all the medical skill
that the neighborhood afforded was
brought into requisition. Thus far
there has been six deaths, and it is fear
ed that others will die. Those who
were in the cars at tho time state that
they were overwhelmed in an instant,
without the slightest warning, and
hurled from their seats in every direc-
ton, with terrific violence. The seat
backs flew over, wounding and main,
ing maryland the splinters did the rest.

Treatment of Perjurers at New Orleans.


A New Orleans correspondent of
the Mobile Mercury, alluding to the
late trial of Hardy, for killing Stone,
the seducer of his daughter, thus speaks
of the witnesses who swore that she
was of easy virtue:
Those unprincipled men who bore
false witness against Miss Caroline
Hardy, are by this time, able to appre.
ciate the text to it's fullest extent
Our merchants and business men have
taken the punishment of thier crime in
to their own hands. Simmons and
Maurer were clerks at cotton press
up town. Simmons was to have been
given an interest, but several banks
notified the proprietors of the press
that if he was in any way interested in
their business, they would decline dis
counting any more of their paper
The commission merchants who had
cotton pressed and stored by the con-
Germ, also sent them a notification that
they would do no more business with
them as long as Simmons and Maurer
remained in their employ. Simmons
has been unanimously expelled from
his Lodge by the Odd Fellows, and
both have been ingnominiously turned
out of houses where they formerly visit
ed as favored guests. Ring is mar
ried man, and his wife is one of the
finest ladies Of our city. Shortly after
the trial, he signifed his intention to
her of going to Bladen Springs. She
told him to 60, and never come back,
as she never would live with him again.
He is cotton weighor and sampler by
profession, but henceforth will have to
follow some other calling, as all his
customers have notified him that they
will not patronize him any more: and
it is also limited that he will be expelled
from all connection with the Masons.
Thus you see that, although these fell
lows could not be reached by the laws,
they have been punished as severely as
if they had been.

To Keep Cool.-The best mode of
keeping cool and free from flies during
tho "dog days" is to open all the win
dows and doors for an hour or two be-
fore sunrise, so as to fill every accessi-
BILE portion of the building with tho
cool fresh air Of the morning, and then
to close them sufficient to keep out
sun and light. The cold air will serve
as barrier to the entrance Of the

GRAVEL AND STONE.

BY this we understand collection of sand
Iiko substance having been lodged in the pas
sage of the urino. When the system is in =
healthy state, this substance is carried of by
tho natural passage oftke body but whom thoro
is weakness ofa any organs, especially the kid
neys, they become incapable ofexpelIing such
sandy connections, and consequently they are
lodged in the kidneys, uretha or the bladder,
causing great inflammation to those organs, and
great pains and swelling, and great difficulty
in Vodng urine. 1t has been admitted by ma.
ny physicians, that Morse's Indian Root Pills
are made out OF some particular plants, whieq
have wonderful charming influence in dissolr.
ing the substance which has cloggcd the pas
sage, and by their cooling properties, they e1-
pol all inflammation and leave the water passage
in an active and healthy state. From three to
four of these pills night and morning, fran ono
to two weeks, will decide how this dreadful dis
ease is to be treated, and as they remoyo tho
cause OF every kind Of disease, it is utterly i'm.
possible for them to fail in curing tho gravel,
as they unclog tho passage, and leave the parts
in healthy and lively condition.

Gen. Morchcad, and other gentlemen
from Pittsburgh, who were announced
as coming to the rescue.
On Tuesday, at l, P. NJ, pursuant

Mr.. Dull, practical constructor Of
locks and dams, said he was no speech
maker, but came up to see the country
and converse with tho people about this
important enterprise.
Capt. Woodward, Of the steamer
Telegraph, was called up, and said he
knew all about putting . steamboat

this work, and would do all in his pow
ca to urge it forward.
The meeting then proceeded to the
practical work Of making fgares-thc

Official report Of proceedings.
The word now is ONWARD" A
