Railroad Disaster.

From one of the passengers on the train
which co!!ided with the eastern bound
freight train, yesterday, we learn the fol-
lowing particulars of the disaster:
The express train was telegraphed TO
stop at Birmingham, few miles east of
Pontiac, until the freight train from the
west had passed. On reaching Birming-
ham, the conductor, Mr.. Briscoc, met the
mixed train from Fentonvile. Suppos-
ing this was the freight train referred in
the telegraphic dispatch he gave the order
to proceed. While the train was NOV
ing at about 80 miles an hour, and just
entering upon a curve, an engineer from
another road, who was upon the locomo-
tive, suddenly cried to the regular engin-
Ger, "Good God there comes train p
Instantly the engine was reversed. Both
engines whistled down the brakes and re-
versed at the same instant. They how
ever were too close together to be check
ed before they met. The engineers all
leaped off just before the collision. The
engineer of the express train had his arm
broken. The others escaped without ma
tcrial injury.
When the trains struck, the coupling
Of the passenger cars gave way, and they
rebounded off the track, on the outside
of the curve, thus saving all the passen-
gers from injury. The two locomotives
were completely ruined, together with
their tenders, the mail and baggage cars,
and several freight cars.
Mr.. Sines, mail agent, Mr.. Nichols, ex-
press agent, and fireman were killed.
Mr.. Nichols was found with the iron safe
of the Express Company upon his head.
The passengers were very much alarmed
and excited. They remained on or near
the scene of the disaster until the ari-
val of an extra relief train, which reach
ed this city with the mails and passen-
gers at 10 o'clock last evening.

Is Seward orazy9

In Boston Seward declared for the
abolition of the army and navy. In Min
nesota he was for taking Canada and
annexing the Russian possessions. His
policy is then TO blot out the means of
acquisition anG defense and then go 10
war. In Detroit he declared "there was
no danger Of the further spread of slavery
in this country" virtually abandoning
the only ground on which tho republican
party stands. In his last speech in Chi
cago he said:
"Six ofthe thirteen original states have
been redeemed from slavery without in
tervention from abroad, and all the others
may be left TO the influence of christianity
TO free themselves from the curse. Non
Intervention in States by freemen is but
half Republicanism, non-iutervention in
Territories by shareholders is the other
half"
If non-intervention and christianity are
the principles that'are to save the country,
why not join forthwith the Democratic
party and embrace the christian religion.
Non-intervention is now the leading prin-
ciple of said party. 1t is the true prm-
ciple as Seward says, that has done all
for freedom that ever has been done aud
must be the basis of all enduring parties
in time to come. 1t is not enough to
join the church, because the church is in
efficient as political organization, being
divided on lesser points of law.
What Mr.. Stewards next new idea
may be we are very impatient to see.

CIRCUIT CoURT.-The Circuit Court
for Ottawa County closed its October
session on Saturday evening last. The
criminal cases brought forward for trial
were disposed of as follows:
The people VS. Manly Patchin-This
cause is continued for trial until next term
of the Court.
The people VS.. George Smith, negro,
for an assault with the intent to kill
Smith was duly tried and the case sub
mitted 10 the jury, who, after a long con-
sultation, could not agree upon verdict.
The prisoner was remanded to Jail and
there awaits second trial at the next
term of the Court.
The people VS.. VIM. Plummer, arraign-
ed for larceny-Prisoner pleaded " Not
Guilty" But after fair hearing of his
cause the jury conceived the idea that he
did not plead truthfully, and accordingly
brought in a verdict of Guilty" The
Judge subsequently, sentenced him 10 the
Pentitentiary for two years.
The people VS.. Henry Townsend, for
illegal voting-The jury in this case
brought in verdict of not guilty, after
being out only few moments. By the
order of the Judge he was Immediately
discharged.
The people VS.. N. A. and D. A. Mark
ham, charged with burglary and larceny
The prisoners, father and son, had an
impartial trial, and the jury having heard
the evidence of the parties returned a
verdict convictipg the elder Markham and
releasing the younger. The guilty one
was soon after sentenced for FIVE years to
the State Prison.

A PRAcrIoAL TEsT.-The following from
the N. Y. Herald is as fair and as forci-
bic an example of the argumentun' adj
honainom as we have yet seen. Read
it, Republican. Put the shoe on the
other foot, and see how it will pinch:
What would the people of the North
say of party at the South, numerically
the strongest in its fifteen States, which
held q convention at Natchez to nomi
nate a national President to preside
over the whole Union, and vet excluded
all representatives of States north of Ma
son and Dixon's line, and selected their
candidates for President and vice Presi-
dent from the South, and nominated
them upon a purely sectional issue, TO
the effect that they were opposed to free
labor in the Territories and at the North
and would never rest contented till they
had planted the slave institution in every
Northern State, and abolished by law,
or by force Of arms if necessary, the labor
Of free white men, as degrading TO the
Caucasian race! If they elected their
men on this issue, how long would the
Union last? But, mutatiS mutantiS,
this is just what the Republican party are
doing as regard to the South and its mode
of labor.

For the Grnnd Haven News.

Hollanders Of OttaaOa County:-On
the 9th of November next we vote for
President of the United States. We
want the best man for the whole country
that man is STEPHEN A. DOUGLASS
We want the best man for Govgnor--
that man is JonN S, BARRY. These men
are true democrats, found worthy by their
long and tried patriotism and, devotion
to the best interests of the country.
The republicans have nominated ABRA-
HAM LINCOLN for President, more famous
for splitting rails than any thing else
known about him. His party want Con-
gress 10 interfere to prevent slavery in the
Territories-another party South, with
BREcKENRIDeE, want Congress to inter
fere to protect slavery in TIE Territories.
Both are wrong. The democratic party,
with DOUGLAS for their leader, want Con
gress to have nothing to do with slavery.
but let that question be settled by the
people as they please everywhere in States
as well as in Territories. That method
will give peace and prosperity to the whole
country. Take that slavery difficulty out
of Congress and the business of the gov
eminent will go on peaceably. The slave
ry question has already divided the Meth
odist Church North and South. Now if
christians cannot sit at tho same table in
the House Of God, how long can political
ties lasts Hollanders, this Union of
States must be maintained! The consti-
tuition must be preserved, as our fathers
and Washington made it.
MIR. SEWARD held his great meeting in
Detroit six weeks ago. This week Mr..
| DouGAAs replied to Mr.. SEWARD. | was
there and heard his speech. ! read the
same speech in the Detroit Free Press,
which is truly reported, word for word.
Republicans say the Free Press is ''the
Democratic bible, and you must not be-
lieve any thing in that paper" The
DOUGLAS meeting in Detroit was great
deal larger than the LINCOLN meeting--
You have been told different story here
Republicans better not make glass houses
if they will throw stones. The demo
cratic party is the only safe party, and
say vote the democratic ticket, on the 9th
of November next. ] want no office, but
l want 10 see the men in office that | car
trust, want to see principlef prevail
that have been tried, and long tried, and
found best adapted TO maintain the peace
happiness and prosperity of the whole
country, East, West, North and South
and to that end | shall vote for DOUGLAS
and JOHNSON, and for Gov. BARRY. ]
am respectfully your friend.

Grand Haven, Oct, 10, 1860.

Gs- In one of Douglas recent speech
es, while dwelling upon the power of the
people in the Territories over the subject
of slavery, he was interrupted with the
question, Can slavery be abolished in
the Territories ?" to which he immediate
ly rpelied, "Yes, sir, just as the people
Of Kansas have done it, and il is TO be
remembered, too, that slavery was driven
out of Kansas not by Congressional in
tervention, but by the democratic doctrine
Of non-intervcntion." The questioner
was satisfied.

DEATH OF Gov. W1LLARD..-The
death of Gov. Willard of Indiana has
already been announced, and has brought
deep sorrow to the hearts of The thousands
of friends who knew him in life. Few of
our public men had more devoted friends
than Gov. Willard. His commanding
talents, his brilliant and effective oratory,
and his loyal devotion to his principles,
won the admiration of bis party friends
and the respect of his opponents. But
the chief charm that won for him the
warm regard and love of those who knew
him best, was his native geniality of tenn
per and goodness of heart. These quail
tiles secured to Gov. Willard host of
friends, who cherished him for his own
sake and not for the high positions which
he held. If he had faults they were
such as are the accompaniment ola genial
and companionable nature-faults which
but win our sympathy, and which even
his enemies will cheerfully bury in the
grave which has now closed over him
forever. Honor to his memory, and
peace to the ashes of Governor Willard.

the democrats have obtained victory in
Nebraska, though it has been otherwise
reported. Mr.. J. Sterling Morton has

former resident of Detroit, and his friends
there and throughout the State will be

PRICE, THIRTY DOLLARS.
FAMILY SEWING MACHINE

Now in use irrespective of Price,
We ask attention to the following points Of
excellence in WEST & WILSON'S Machine.
LIST. It's simplicity, and the directness with
which the power is communicated TO the needles.
This is great dosideratum andin this we claim
decided superiority over all other machines.
ID. The needle and needle bar arc both
straight and the motion direct the needle bar
is attached to n small wheel driven by u larger
one instead Of to the long arm of n lever, as in
most machines, with power upon the short one.
The latter arrangement necessarily makes tbs
motion of the needle both circular and weak,
while the former gives strength and drectness
3d. The great power and direetness of the
motion enables us to sew all fabrics, from gauzo
to four thicknesses of leather, with almost equal
case, and the Machine can be made to run.
without changing needle or thread, through all
the different thiclnesses, from sheet Of paper
to heavy leather and back and forth without
cropping a stitch or breaking thread. Wo
know OF no other family machine Of equal ca
pacity.
4ih 1t uses silk, cotton or linen thread from
the original spools unlike most machines, il
will permit the seam to be turned at right an
giles at its highest speed; il has much more room
than any other family machine for passing goods
through, thus allowing to pass freely tho heavi-
est garments bed-quilts, &C., and it will turn up
readily upon hinges attached to the stand, tho
this is seldom necessary, as both tensions are
regulated from above.
9Th. The Machine ill do n gr, ter variety
of work than can be done by any other stitch.
1t will HEM, QUILT, GATHER, EMBROID-
Err and CORD, and viii do. neatly and rapid
ly every variety of sewing that can be done by
a simlarstitch upon the highest priced machine
No machine viii make and put upon garments
the finishing cord as neatly as ours.
Send for a circular containingfull particulars,
prices, testimonials illustrations Of stitch, &c.
Machines warrantodand full directions given,
for using. without charge.
Orders for machines and circulars will receive

WELL DONE Though the democrats
have failed TO carry their State tickets in
Pennsylvania and Ohio, yet they have
made g gain on Congressman. InPenn-
sylvania, where they had but three out
of twenty-five, they have gained two GER
tainly, and possibly three or four. The
black republicans will have but eighteen
or twenty where they now have twenty
two. %
In Ohio, where the democrats had but
six out of twenty-one Congressman, they
have made a gain of three, and lost
one. The democrats will now have eight
TO the black republicans thirteen.
In Indiana the democrats have elected
the same number as before. The black
republicans now have seven of the eleven
members. M
It certain that in these three States
the democrats have gained five members,
and possibly eight, and have lost only one
at the farthest. This is agood beginning
for the next Congress.

New York to be Redeemed.

The Albany Atlas d Argus of the
18th inst, says: Intelligence from all
parts of the State tend to one end---that
New York can and will be redeemed, and
that by its vote Lincoln will be defeated !!
This is the word that is sent us from the
North and the South, the East and the
West. The intelligence of disafection
and defeat in other States, instead of dis
couraging the Democracy, has served to
arouse and invigorate them. These States
have been lost because distracting ccun-
sells and divided organizations have broken
the Democratic force. Here the party
is compact and concentrated; conscious
of its responsibility and resolutely march
ing straight to its end.
In every county heard from, the in
telligence is that the Democratic majority
is TO be increased, or the Republican ma
jority diminished. Mr.. Lincoln has none
of the popularity of Fremont; and that
candidate, with all his apparent success,
was still in a large minority Of the pop
ular vote of the State. His opponents
concentrated and recruited by large ac-
cessions from the supporters of Repub-
licanism in 1856, have only to unfold
their energies and TO push on from this
moment with courageous impulse, aud
they will sweep all before them.s
