observed in several Of our exchanges, notices
of the fact, for which act of kindness we will
take it upon ourselves to return the thanks
of the editors, as the first number Of their
sheet is before the public, and the date Of the
second is not decided upon. Great induce
ments are offered to clubs, and II our editorial
brethren would bu. take the trouble to Sc
cure its circulation in their several localities,
we have no doubt but what they would be

lNurderous Attcmpt to Destroy Railroad
Train AS the Eastward bound train on
the Dubuque & Sioux City Railroad approach
ed bridge across small stream about two
and-a-halfmiles cast Of Manchester yesterday,
the engineer discovered some pieces Of wood
or timber a few rods west of the bridge, and
suspecting that all might not be right, whis-
tied down breaks, and brought the train to a
halt as soon as possible. On looking ahead
upon the bridge, he discovered one Of the
rails unusually elevated. and upon examina-
ton found that the timber underlying the
ties the entire length Of the rail on one side
of the track had been removed, and the rail
replaced, SO that when the first train should
attempt to pass the bridge, the locomotive
and the entire train would be hurled to de-
struction! Near the bridge Conductor Cav
ley found the following placard attached to
pole: PAY for ,ohat cutie goa Kill, or you
aeiU catch Aell!' This of course left no doubt
that there was deliberate intention on the
part Of some ficnd or fiends, to sacrifice the
lives of employees and passengers on an en-
tire train, in revenge for some trifling and
probably unavoidable loss Of private property
by the Company. The trap was probably
set for Mr. Norfhup's train. which. until this
week has been the first to pass the bridge
from the eastward; but yesterday new time
table went into effect. the outward bound
train leaving nearly an hour later than usual.
so that the train from the west came along
frst, and the engineer from that direction had
an unobstructed view of the bridge for dis
lance Of half mile. East of the bridge there
is curve, and before the villainy could have
been detected on the train from that direction,
probably every human life on board would
have been sacrificed! sg -
We,cannot coolly write of this hellish vii
lainy! The perpetrators have probably fur
nished the clue TO their detection, and IL there
is any mode Of punishment more severe than
hanging, they ought to be made to feel It!
Conductor Cawley, with the aid Of the
put the timber into place again
in about half an hour. and notwithstanding
this detention, made his advertised time into
the city yesterday Dubuque Timss, 20t5
