DrXr.-Wc learn from an eyewitness that
the recent accident on the Central Ohio
Railroad occurred as follows: The train
was going down the grade west of Barnes
vile, when the forward trucks OF the mid.
die car, which was an old one, became de-
tached and were thrown to the side of the
track. The car itself was instantly thrown
directly across the track, and the one fol.
lowing passed with crash directly over
and through it, producing complete
wreck. Conductor Corbiu and dozen or
more passengers, among whom was A. NJ.
Adams, of this city, were occupying the
themiddle car. The Conductor, immedi-
ately upon observing that something was
wrong, made an effort to seize the bell
rope, and as he did so was entangled in
the wreck. By some miraculous piece of
good fortune none of the passengers were
so badly injured rs to prevent them from
continuing their journey. 1t required
some fifteen minutes to take the mangled
conductor from the wreck, when he was
taken to Spencer's Station, where he died
in few minutes, without having spoken a
word. The remains were sent to Column
bus yesterday for interment.
Conductor Corbin leaves wife in Col
umbus, and daughter in Massachusetts.
He has two sons in the army, one of whom
is Captain, and the other Lieutenant.

The boys babe farewell to the cold blasts

of the pleasures and all of the pains of a

before, were the only two sources of pleas.

BS-FEDERAL COURT.-Several civil cases
were passed until to-day.
Mr.. Cramner asked for an order in refer
ence to certain horses, supposed to belong
to rebels which were recently brought to
Rowlsburgh in Preston county, by four me-
groes supposed to be fugitive slaves. The
four negroes and the four horses saddles
and brides, which they brought from seces-
STA were taken in custody By Col. Hooten
and Mr.. Peters of Rowlsburgh. The
County Court of Preston county discharged
the negroes from custody, and they went to
Pennsy lvauia leaving the horses behind
Last week deputy U. S. Marshall of Pres
ton county came to this city aud in accord
nuce with representations made by him the
District Attorney was induced to ask for
an order giving the horses into the custody
of the United States. Mr.. Cramuer now
asks that this order be rcscluded as the
gentlemen who have the custody of the
horses may be held responsible If it should
turn out that the horses belong to loyal
citizens. The Court made an order thai
the horses be returned TO the custody Of
HOoten and Peters upon their giving suf
tieient bond for its safe keeping.

BBTHE WATER is again shut off,
The reason is that there is too much of it.
The high water has interrupted the work
ing of the machinery. Besides we under
stand there have been some breakages.
This shutting off of the water is exceed
ingIy vexatiOus but it cannot possibly be
avoided and our citizens will have to grin
and bear it. Patience is rare aud a
christian virtue and we ought to be glad
TO have an opportunity to exercise it.
There are a great many hOusekeepers and
manufacturers who ''do not see it" in this
light when they have to haul water from
the river, but lovers of christian virtues
are content.
