Narrow Escape ola Railroad Train.
Land 81 ide on the PR,

The st. Louis Democrat of Monday, learns by
a passenger, that on Saturday morning the down
train of the Pacific railroad when few miles from
Jefferson City, was stopped by the engineer, who
discovered what he considered loosening of the
earth of of the overhangng bluffs on the road.
The passengers were requested to get off the train
until it passed the dangerous point. Having pass
ed the place in safety, the passengers again re-
sumed their seats, but the train had not gone a
head more than two or three hundred yards, when
another bluff was discovered in the same shaking
condition. The cars stopped and the passengers
again left them. Scarcely had they done so when
an immense mass of earth fell, covering the track
for some distance, and what is very singular, a
large portion of the earth of the first bluff also
gave way and fell at the same time. The passen-
gers consider they made fortunate escape, for
had not the engineer been on the look out and dis
covered the danger in time, there is every proba-
biIiy that the train would have been buried in the
mass of earth and rocks which fell, and several
lives lost.

Latest from the Mines.
LEAvENwoRTH, Ma

LEAvENwoRTH, May II.
Letters from Denver City to April 18th, via
Fort Laramie, are received.
There was great scarcity of provisions in the
mines, much suffering among the emigrants in
consequence, and several deaths from starvation
are reported. Emigrants were also arriving in a
very destitute condition. An abundance of pro-
visions are, however, on the way out from this
and 9TH, points.
Contradictory reports prevailed regarding min
ing prospects. The general tenor of the ntelli-
gence Is not encouraging, but the unfavorable
accounts are ascribed to destitute and dscon-
tented emigrants. No rich remittances of dust or
rich discoveries are announced.
Measures had been initiated TO form new State,
and delegates will meet at Denver City in June TO
frame State constitution.
The first number of a newspaper, the Cherry
Creek Pioneer, is announced.
The Overland Express, with two weeks later
news, will be due tomorrow, "wednesday and
arrangements are progressing for public demon
stration on its arrival.

HARD TIMES IN IowA-Scdrcity of Food Great
Safering..-We are sorry to learn from the Iowa
papers that there is much suffering in that State
from want of food. During the early part Of
Spring, cattle died of starvation by scores through
out the State, there being no grain 10 feed with
and that affairs are not whit improved at this
time may he learned by the following picture Of
distress, from the Eddyville Commercial:
"Itis useless to deny or attempt 10 conceal the
fact. This region of the country Is destitute Of
the necessaries of life. The stock of food for
man and beast is about exhausted. There Is. per-
haps, corn enough TO feed those who are unable 10
buy flour; but they have not the means to buy
corn. II is in the hands of a few persons, and
they will only sell for the cash at dollar BUSH
ell. Not one-third Of those who need to buy corn,
have the dollar, or any means of getting it; tor
the money, like the corn, is out Of the reach Of the
destitute. We are no panic maker; but of this we
feel certain, and we speak advisely that in thirty
days from this time, unless those who have sur
plus agree to part with it, on time at fair price,
1t will be distributed and carried away by bands
of desperate men, to feed their starving families
This sounds terribly; but il is too near the truth,
and men will not suffer their families to starve,
when food can be procured by going and taking
it.o

to be Done at Home.

WASHINGTON, May I6.
All the new naval steamers will be placed in
commission, as soon as they shall be successfully
finished, and before the close of this year every
available vessel will probably be in active service
This design is not, however, with reference to the
European war, as no damage 10 our commerce is
apprehended from that cause.
Vera Cruz is considered, in official quarters,
to be one of the most important points, where a
large fleet is required and hence additional vessels
will be dispatched TO the Gulf of Mexico. The
facilities in the neighborhood of Central America,
afforded by our squadrons, either for sea or land
operations are considered sufficient for all emer-
gencies.
According to general order just issued from
Adlutant Generals Office, officers Of the Medical
and Pay Departments may, by virtue of their com.
mission, command all enlisted men, like other
commissioned officers.
The following military stations are announced
as double ration posts, from the date of their es-
Establishment, and while occupied by not less than
one company; Department of Texas-Fort Quit
man and Camp Hudson; Department of Oregon
Fort Bellingham; Department of California, Forts
Crook, Terwand and New San Diego.

Total. 900. ...... so. 2O2 Coo

Among SO, 900 900 of people, the taking of Co.,
O0o men, that is one out of seventy, more or less
from ordinary occupations will have but little in
finence upon production, and no more upon con-
sumption than what will be caused by waste
What they actually eat as soldiers IS less than
what they geta home. A large portion of these
are ders from the cities, and in Europe the labor
of agriculture, thanks to the long wars of former
ages, is customarily performed by females. No
conScrpt Is taken where his labor is necessary TO
his family. The mere movement of the men is
of no commercial importance. Where their on
erations extend over large agricultural surface.
they, however, destroy and prevent agriculture,
and in so far cause demand from other quarters.
If this is confined to Northern Italy, while all
the ordinary sources of supply are undisturbed,
the commercial effects Of the war will hardly be
felt.
There never was more propitious moment for
war than now, since crops of all sorts in Europe
are very abundant, capital and money abundant
and cheap, and enterprise not recovered from the
panic of 1858. This is a very different state of
affairs from what existed when the Russian war
took place. There was then failure of every
thing in Western Europe. Wheat, in England,
had touched lois. In France the vines, silk
worms, food, and other crops, were all short, and
money was very dear. Under these circunstan-
ces the exports of produce from the United States
would have been quite as large had there been no
war at all. That even did not add TO the demand
in any degree. lis influence was felt only in the
manufacturing towns of England, in a scarcity
of labor, whence large portion of the new troops
were drawn. The armament Of the war, however
caused great decline in governments funds.
The migration Of men and capital to the United
States during the Crimean war, and sales of pro-
duce to Europe, were certainly large, but those
circumstances were not due 10 the war-they were
the result of short crops in Europe, which drove
forth great numbers, and called for large imports
TO sustain those who remained. Those circum-
stances are not now to operate, at least for year
to come. If in that time the war should become
general, involving strife between England and
France, their fleets would disturb the ocean, H.
stead of keepingit open, and England would be
thrown upon the United States for those large
supplies she draws from France.

1.-THE U. s. Economist takes a phio-
sophie and comprehensive view of the i'm
pending European outbreak, in the follow
ing brief paragraph;
The end of such war no man can pre-
dict; but the oft-quoted forecast of Napole-
On, that Europe was to become in fifty years
Republican or Cossack, seems again about 10
be brought 10 the test. France is, indeed,
powerful, but the strife Of Western rulers
is above slumbering republican elements,
while the giant power OF Russia, ecllpsed
for moment by Crimean was against the
united West, looms up again with threaten
ing aspect against that West, divided. II
the strength OF Austria is TO be broken and
that Of Italy not yet created, while the Gar
succeeds TO the inheritance Of the "sick
man" and the plasied hand of Spain is about
dropping its richest possession in the West,
how will the "balance Of power" be affect
ed? II the Republican elements combine in
a new upheaving in Western Europe, will
the disconftted governments become vas
sails of the Cossack or, wiH Rspublicanism
succeeded in casting all forth together? The
struggle seems to threaten along and terri
BILE existence, during which the resources
Of the United States will be main depend
ence for many Of the combatants. Ameri-
ca will be the refuge for persons and prop
erty flying from the confagration Of the old
world; and it is to be hoped that the blood
stained inheritance may not entail disaster
upon the mascent nations Of this continent.

The Rivers.

The river opposite this place is quite full-up
to the average June rises. but will probably re-
cede rapidly, as the rise is the result of recent
rains. The upper Mississippi is quite full, and
was rising at last accounts. The Ohio has been
very high, but is receding. The lower Missis-
sppi is out of its banks; Of farms have been
over-run, and rendered useless for this year.
The levees are broken at numerous places, and
the water pours over farms, and in some cases,
towns. New Orleans was seriously threatened,
but escaped. Large forces are continually at
work on the leVees, and it is probable that the
worst is passed. But il the recent rains on the
Missouri, were general, another flood is Oh its
way.

War News from Vera Cruz.
Especial Correspondence of the N. o. Picayune. ]
VERA CRUz, April 90. '59.

Special Correspondence of the N. o. Picayune.
VERA CRUz, April 90. SO.
The principal military movement in the
progress of the civil war, on this slope,
since the Tennessee sailed, is the advance
of Gen. Robes Pezuela on Jnlapa with a
detachment of some 700 men. These are
the troops left by Mramon at Orizaba on
his departure TO the city of Mexico. They
belonged to the celebrated expedition to
Vera Cruz. Taking possession of Jalapa,
Gen. Robles issued an order prohibiting all
communications with Vera Cruz on pain of
death. So you will see we are entirely cut
off from the capital by both Of the great
roads thither.
Gen, Ampudia has also returned from his
foolish pursuit Of Miramon, and is now en-
camped within few leagues of Jalapa,
with some 1000 men. We are in daily ex-
pectation of hearing of an engagement be-
tween him and Robes Pezuela. The result
cannot be predicted, but hopes are enter
tanned of the triumph Of the Liberal arms.
Miramon is still at Mexico. Degolado
is at Toluca, about forty miles to the South
west. He intends making Morelia the fu-
ture basis Of his operations against the cap
ital, which are to be resumed with more
vigor than ever.
His late reverses are now known 10 be
the result more of accident than the superi
or skill or force Of the enemy-the sudden
explosion Of his powder magazine at Tacu-
ba, which, exploding among several parks
Of artillery, destroyed vast number of
guns and nearly all his ammunition. Unable
therefore, to follow up the successes he had
gained, he was perforce compelled to retire.
This was done in good order, and without
loss. His camp outside The walls was bro
ken up the morning Of the 18th. That same
night the whole army encamped, without
fear of annoyance, only ten miles distant
from the capital. The next day he retired
to Toluca. This sums up the war news.

undoubtedly be admitted to seats in that eonven-
