One of those terrible railroad casualties,
which seem to be moro frequent than usual this
Summer, occurred on Tuesday evening on the
Northern Railroad near Schaghticoke, about sew
enteen miles from Albany. A trestle-work
bridge oyer which the down mail train was
passing, gave way, precpitatng all the cars and
the tender OF the locomotive into the chasm be.
low, a distance of forty feet. The number Of
the killed and wounded is NOS fully known, but
from ten 10 twenty lives were certainly lost, and
probably every ono of the passengers who es-
capped destruction received some serious injuries

A Wrong Impression Corrected.

We regret to see our exchange papers
South and East giving so undue prominence
to Mr.. SlBLEY's war upon the people of
Wright County. Its tendency is to hurt the
State generally, and, in particular, to deter
immigration for long period from seeking
the Valley of the Upper Mississippi, because
of the false impression conveyed by Mr.. SIB-
LEY's proclamation, that it is inhabited by a
wild and lawless set of people. We assure
our contemporaries that this is not the case.
The people of the Upper Valley, and of
Wright County, are amongst our most law
abiding and intelligent citizens. The whole
of the war;" the proclamation included, is
now acknowledged to have been only gross

the land officers from Minnesota, when on
their recent visits to that city, actually did
aduise and stimulate secretly If not openly,
the present oppressive land sales. To be sure
we acknowledge they probably did the work
in this respect quite cunningly. 1t would
not do, both on party and individual account
to show their hands boldly. Some Of them
were aspiring to offices in Minnesota. There
were "Colonels" and Generals and
Georgia and Alabama majors" amongst
them, who had hopes Of Congressional noml-
nations, and in that event, it was suspected
the settlers, though poor, might sometime OF
other have it in their power by their votes
to bring retribution on their oppressors.
To strike the blow, yet conceal the hand'
became therefore the object Of our Land om-
GERS. To increase their scanty revenues by
bringing the lands into market, and yet, at the
same time, so cover up their tracks as to pre-
vent the Settlers finding out the double game
played upon them, was chief aim OF these
conspirators.
The game, however, will not succeed. Inc
people already know, that probably every
land Office in the State sent at least one o
its officials to Washington during the last 81
months. They know that no particular ON
cial business called them there-none tina

More Lying.

The greatest liar connected with the Demo-
cratic press of Minnesota is one COTTON, VINO
edits the Winona Democrat. The following Is
the latest specimen Of his talents in his pecu-
liar line:
Ignatius Donnelly is engaged in trying to
humbug the Irish and Germans into his sup
port by writings series Of very gassy, Spread
Eagle letters for the st. Paul INinnesotaan;-
Ignatius has tried to make people believe that
he was an Irishman and Catholic, and a

500, 900 would be some 5000, 600 alone, annu-

Let every man pause and reflect on these
facts. Let US look also where Railroad swind-
ling, Democratic extravaganza, and this con-
templated Democratic State Railroad policy,
will land us. The gulf ahead thus prepared
for Minnesota is fearfuly dark and precipi-
tous.
On the other hand, the Republicans oppose
and denounce Reputation; but they stand
by the terms of the Constitutional amend
ment. When the companies fail to comply
with their obligations under it, then the State,
with the lands and roads in its hands to serve
as "assets' to reduce the amount of our in
debtedness, will manfully shoulder the bal
ance that may remain unpaid. This is Re-
publican policy. The Democratic, is all for
the Railroad Companies and nothing for the
People but Taration!

S Put a Row OF Stars In there.,,
