Court HOUSE BAsEMENT.-Theb base
ment of the Court House has been transform.
cd into large and handsome room, into
which the Public School of the town is about
to be removed. We understand the School
Commissioners have the use of it guaranteed
until April, 1860, when it will most likely
be surrendered to the County Commissioners
upon the payment Of the amount expended
out of the school fund. There is much CON-
plant about the noise and confusion caused
by so many children in the heart Of the town.
which will tend TO the removal of the school
to an outside location, besides which, the
County Commissions are greatly in need Of a
lit Office for tLeir business.

RAILROAD ACCIDENTAL fatal ac-
cident occurred on the railroad, at this town,
between one and two O'Clock on Saturday
morning. The boiler of the locomotive
"Mctcor," Of the freight train from Baltimore
exploded about quarter of a mile east of the
Elkton station, by which the engineer. LUCAS
). Hall, of Massachusetts, and the fireman
Edward Bonner, of Chester, Pa, were instantly
killed, the former being blown to fragments,
so as not to be recognizable, and the head of
the latter torn to pieces. They were both
young men and unmarried. The locomotive
was rent to pieces; part of the boiler was
thrown 300 yards from the track, and other
portions much farther; four burthcn cars
were broken to pieces, the track was torn up
and the fences on each side swept off level
with the ground. There were a number of
cars filled with live cattle none Of which were
hurt.
There are numerous spcculations as to the
cause at the accident which will probably re-
| main unknown. The train was very heavy
and had difficulty coming up Bacon IIill it
stopped at the station here and took in wafer
and starting on its way, had attained speed
Of five miles an hour when the explosion took
| place; it was, at the time, descending an easy
grade. The general impression is that the
water was allowed to get too low in the boiler
before replenishing while some suppose it
was caused by valve becoming DISTRACTED.
The explosion was heard by many persons in
town, and seemed like the heavy slmming
of a door so as to jar the house. An inquest
was held over the dead men by Esq. Brown.

She wanted husband, and told Nellis that if
he would introduce her to the proper man for
such situation, she would pay him thousand
dollars. N.llis accepted the commission, and
brought up john Cummings, of Canaioharic
in this state. Cummings was on probation
for a while, but did not suit. Nelis started
for the country again, and succeeded in cnptur-
ing military man, known as Major Freeman,
all the way from Saratoga county. Freeman

failed to unite, and Frcemnn is a free man still.

Broad lakes her azure heavens behold,
Rejecting clear each trembling star;
And mighty rivers. mountain born.
Go sweeping onward dark and deep,
Through forests where the bounding fawn
Beneath their shcltering branches leap.
And Graded mid her clustering hills
Sweet Wales in dreamlike beauty hide,
Where love the air with music fills.

For plenty here her fullncss pours,

And sent to seize her generous stores.

manner BY the glass. There was good deal Of ex
citeent and hut for the restraining influence of the
Governor and his personal friends the crowd in front
would have made an indiscriminate attack on the

search ior the mscreants the Governor addressed the
delegation. While he was speaking, person threw
vessel, with the contents, from the roof Of the
south wing upon the crowd. Upon this rush was
made up the grand staircase by portion Of the
crowd, and for . moment there was danger that the
incensed Germans would gut the hotel from base.
