SERIOUS RAILROAD AcCIDENT.--The night

met with a serious accident on Saturday
night, about two miles South Of this village

one Of the rails, evidently from Appearances
only few minutes before the arrival of the
train. The engine approached under full
head of steam, and passed safely over the OBJ
struction together with the tender, but the
baggage car was thrown from the track, as
also the passenger car, the latter rolling over
and down the embankment. Though some
dozen passengers were aboard, very fortunate
ly no one sustained any serious injury. Last
Thursday night the engineer found rocks
upon the track at precisely the same place,
without doubt put there by the same wretch
who tore mp the rail. They we're however.

FROM NEW ORLEANS.

Gen. Butler was seranaded in New Orleans
on the l4th inst He made speech in which
he declared that his feelings toward the South
were friendly and fraternal, but at the same
time he was resolved, as a matter of duty in
cXorably imposed upon him, to carry out the
laws of the United States under all oircum-
stances.
A new daily paper called National Adpocote,
has been started in New Orleans, Of which
Jacob Barker is editor.
One Cappel, subscribing himself British
Acting Consul, had presumed to address Gen
Butler, complaining about the oath required
Of aliens, and asking for explanations
Whereupon Gen. Butler returned an answer
that no reply would be made to the note un-
til a copy could be recognized by his own
Government as its agent,
All but eight Of Porter's Mortar feet had
gone up the Mississippi. The balance will 60
as soon as they can be lowed.
Lovell's army had gone to Vicksburgh.
The Spanish Vice Consul refused to clear a
bill of health TO the steamer Roanoke, conse-
qucntly she did not stop at Havana. The re-
fusal was in consequence Of theSpanish steamer
Cardmas being obligeu to stop at quarantine,
as appeared clearly in the correspondence on
the subject. Gen. Butler has referred the
matter to the State Department.
AL is quiet at Baton Rouge The story
that Col Dudley and Minis battery had been
cut off is complete canard There have
been no rebel forces near Baton Rouge, ex-
cept band Of 200 guorrillas scattered be-
tween tina; city and Clinton. Gen Williams
sent Col. Mcmillan, Of the 3lst Indiana regi-
ment, with a guard to seize some property
As they were on the road they were fred up
on by two guerrllas and Col. Mcmillan wa,
slightly wounded with buck shot. The guarC
fired upon the rascals aud killed one and cap
tured the other Gen. Williams wrote t.
Gen. Butler for instructions. The Genera
answered as follows:
General You ask me what shall be done
with guorrillas They should be captured
tried at the drum-head by military commits
sion and shot-every mnn,-their house,
burnt, their property destroyed, and ever,
means taken to show them that they are enc
mics Of the human race--not soldiers, bu
murderers and land pirates. There is onl
one way in which you can err towaros them
and that is by want Of severity.
By order Of Maj. General Butler.
VIM. NJ. Clark, late second officer on tn,
u. S. steam transport Saxon, and Stannii
Lous Roy, of New Orleans, were to be hung
on the 10th for burglary, they having forge,
