interesting details:

the hind car was thrown from the trask
aud precipitated down an embankment
The train consisted of three cars, the
hindmost of which contained some fifty
or sixty ladies and gentlemen, returning
from the camp meeting at Tarentum.-
As soon rs the engine could be reversed,
the train was backed to the scene of the
disaster, when the ears of the passengers
were greeted with the most heart rending
cries. 1t was very dark, and when it
became known that the car had gone over
the precipice, and had been dashed to
atoms upon the rocks below, the hveliest
apprehensions were felt. Men cried for
their wives and children, anh women were

large rock, the skull crushed in, the face
shockingly mutilated, and the brains
dashed out. She had evidently been
thrown violently against the track, and
afterwards crushed with portion o. the
wrecked car, which was shattered into q
thousand fragments.
The wounded were oil conveyed to the
other two cars, and attended to as well
as circumstances would permit. 1t was
most remarkable that more lives were not
lost, and the survivors united in thanking
God for their almost miraculous preserva-
tion from death.
We were unable to obtain complete
list of the wounded, but for the satisfaction
of those who had friends at the camp
meeting, aud who may be anxious in re-
gard to their welfare, we are happy to
state that no one was dangerously injured
and we learn from gentleman of the
road that no bones were broken, ii we ex-

VIOLATING LAw-WiIliam IT. .Jone,

VIOLATING LAW William II. Jones
was before the Mayor yesterday to answer the
charge of violating the revenue laws Dy selling
goods in this city By sample for the house of Ste-
mann. Hinrichs 4 Co. of Baltimore. The accused
admitted that he had made sales by samples to
merchants in this city, hut had done under the
auction license Of Messrs. LaTus Shine, at whose
house all contracts were closed, and to whom he
paid commission for the privilege of selling, The
transaction had been brought to the attention Of
the court by merchant who paid heavy license,
and who very properly thought that all cOmpet'.
tors in trade should do the same. If merchan,
from another State is allowed 10 bring samples in-
TO Virginia, and sell bills of goods without a H.
cense, or without paying house rent, the Eer-
chants of this State would soon find themselves
unable to compete in trade with the stranger and
Of necessity be compelled to close their doors
The Mayor after hearing the evidence and the ar
gument of Mr.. Tazewel, the defendants counsel,
decided that sales by sample were fraud upon
the revenue laws, even though sold under the
guise Of an auCtoueer's license, and therefore sent
the party on to be indicted by the Grand Jury.
