killing and wounding over 100 soldiers.
Intelligence of the disaster reached lac. c

one car passed over safely. There are
about loo men wounded and 10 or II killed.

that number are killed, although nearly all
of one company are missing. It's thought
the bridge was weakened by some malici

From Frederick. Md.

FREDERICK. Md, Sept. lS.-lmmetliatclv
after the farce was gone through with,
yesterday afternoon, of calling the roll
and adjuurning the two branches of the
Legislature, an unusual stir took place i'll
this community. Companies of the Wis
consim Regiment were observed passing
through the city in different directions,
and very soon it was found that the city
WAS walled in, so far as an outlet WAS con-
ccrncd. No one was allowed TO pass out
without pass from the Provost Marshal,
whose Office was soon crowded with an
excited throng of people, WHO had been
stopped and turned back.
In the meantime, Lieut.. Carmichael, oil
the Baltimore Police, was moving quietly
about with his officers, accompanied by
squad of military. making arrests, com
mcncng with the officers of the Legisln-
| turc, auj especially the clerks, who had
coutcmdrd that they would keep the Lcgis
lativc machine going until Il quorum could
arrive. The first occupant OF the guard
house WAS the Glcr!; OF the House, Milton
Y. Kidd. His assistant. Thomas II. Moore,
could not he found till late in the evening"
but he was finally arrested. The Clerk OF
the Senate, Mr.. Kilgour, and his assistant,
NJ. Cnrmick who WAS also found attcr
much difficulty, and taken to the same
destination. Mr.. Gordon and MIR. McCub-
bin, of Allegheny, were next taken, and
! SOON Mcssrs. Salmon and Durant were also
in DURANGO vile. An effort WAS then made
10 find Mcssrs. kcssler and Mills. AT Il
late hour Mr.. Kcsslcr was arrested but at
the last accounts Mr.. Mills had not been
taken. The aim of tie officers was to ar
rest all the mcmbers who voted for Mr..
Wallis famous report, 10000 copies Of
which were yesterday seized, and :irprn-
priated for camp uses, being Il reasonable
document.
During the afternoon, the Union mem
bers of the Senate and House met in eau
Gus, and resolved that the action of the
Senators present i'll understanding, having
vi. .ualy brought the Legislature to an end
they would return to their homes, and not
again attempt 20 rc-assemble. Mr.. Ling
was in the meantime del, gated to prepare
brief statement, TO be signed and pub
liShcd by the members present. The ar
rest of tie Clerks will prevent them from
calling the roll, and SO the Legislature is
nj an end.
Several Of the most noisy and active Sc
| ccssiOnists i'll town have also been arrest
cd. The prisoners remained in the guard
house all night, and will be sent to Fort
McIirnry this morning.
The Union members of both the House
and Senate refused TO meet this morning.
The Legislature is virtually dead. all the
officers being under arrest, to prevent the
calling of the roll. The Union members
will leave this afternoon for home. and tine
secession members for Fort Mcllcnry. Tie
city is quiet. The talk of am invasion by
