THE LATE RAILROAD DISASTER.
LIST OF KILLED AND WOUNDED.


TIE Chicogo Tribune Of the 3Oth ult. gives further
particulars of The terrible disaster on the Southern
Mlehiaan Railroad, from which we extract
"Ihe track resting on sandy foundation, the acton
of tie water had he effect to undermine, aud probably
be.oe the train reached the fatal spot tue track hsd
been partly carried away and the Train TOOK the teri
bic plunge into the abyss below, almost completely
burying II in the qaickssud and mud. The scene which
followed il is ont f power 10 describe but those
who were compelled to witness il say that IT was an
event which no man should be called upon 10 witness
but once in lifetime. The night was clear, but the
ravpe being skired by woods ard the high bauks, II
WAS impossible TO distinguish objects, ana any AID rem
6ured by those who escaped death or severe iiylry
could only be by the sound OF the g'o.ns OF the
sufferers So fierce was the conclusion, and so
terrible the screams Of the wounded aud dying, tnat
the sound thereof distinctly heard at Msan AKA,
distance Of two full mes. When these sounds reached
the ears of the citizens, large number OF whom were
in the streets they having been called up by nre IN
the village they immediately started en- asse tor the
scete of the Disaster with lanterns and everything that
would probably be needed to relieve the wounded;
and from that time until the hour ot leaving as even
inc eyery door has been thrown open to the sufferers
and everything which human agency could accom-
sh has been done by the citizens for the relief ot the
Unhappy victims. They deserve the enduring regard
of the sufferers and their friends.
