Arrest Of Rev. Daniel Worth.
Va are indebted to Nh. Scott, of the house of L.
=, Roche of Baltimore for the following particulars
= hs arrest and trial of Worth, in Greenaborough,
Saturday last Mr.. Scott was passing through
N his way home, and was kind enough to call at
.r- office and give us the particulars.
The Rev. Daniel Worth was arrested in Guilford,
=. Friday on Justices warrant and was tried be-
se three Justices in Greensborough, on Saturday.
u.ssrs. Mclean, Dick, and Scott appeared for the
S,,e and Worth spoke in his own defence We
r,erstand that he endeavored to defend his inccn-
di,rv conduct and in so doing read extensively
from Helpers book.
# uss proved that he had used in his sermons the
strongest and vilcst incendiary language, and had |
.realated Helpers book. Among other things he |
has declared publicly that he has mo respect for
,be laws of Nortf-earolina that "they were en- |
,sd by aduterers, drunkar,ls, and gam5lers."--
An, that he would not have had old John Brown
HING for a thousand worlds"
He vas held bail in the sum of 900 for his ap-
Ds,rance at Court and s. 600 for his good behavior
Tie had given bail for his appearance, and was en-
dsaronng to give bail for his good behavior. The
Sheriff of Alan,ance, Mr.. Patterson, was present.
and intended to arrest him on a writ issued BY
JUDGE Saunders as soon as he passed from the ju-
rsdcion Of the Justices Court. He may, there
fore be expected here this evening to answer before
Judge S. for his violation of the law in Aamance,
Chatham, and Randolph.
We learn that the excitement in Greensborough
vas very great, and that the officers of the law en-
peienced difficulty in protecting Worth from the

ACCIDENT AND MARROW ESCAPE OF THE Pas
sEsGERs-The mail train from the north, on the
Raleigh and CASTOR railroad, ran into the en-
CINE Of the freight tran six miles from this City,
last Saturday afternoon, by which accident the mail
engine was greatly damaged and disabled; the ex-
press car next to the engine. was = total wreck
the mail badly injured and the passenger coach
somewhat injured. No person ras ssriously in-
jAL There were good many persons aboard;
several ladies'; Gov. bragg, Hon. d. X. McRae,
Rev. Thos. E. Skinner, number of Southern medi-
cal Students sece1ers from the Philadelphia medical
schools, and other gentlemen going South. The
collision occurred thus: The freight train was on
the side track in order to allow the mail train to
pass but the freight train being too long for the
turnout, its engine protruded over the track about
eight inches
We learn that the conductor of the freight train
had n ~of
mail train, but having no flag he waved bis hat to
which the conductor attached no importance, think
ing it was a sort of Christmas hurrah.
The conductor of the freight train showed much
presence Of mind in backing his train as far as he
could as the mail train approached If he had not
done this, the injury and loss of life must have been
Serious . ..-...
As far as We have learned no blame is attached to
the conductors of the two trains.
The loss to the Road is by no means heavy.
