RAILROAD ACCIDENr.-We learn from
the Altoona Tribune, the following parti-
culars of a most shocking railroad catas-
trophe, which happened at Conemauch
Station, to the Stock Express Train, east
ward. To the rear of each stock train is
attached what is called callaboOse car
for the accommodation of droyers and
those in charge Of the stock. In addition
to the Engine i'll front, the train was be-
inc pushed up the grade by Engine No.

the station named, to allow this Engine to
take in coal and water, II blew up. The
tire-box was blown off and the boiler was
raised up and thrown on top of the calla-
boose car, in which were "A number of
drovers. and their helps The result was

John Finley, engineer, was so badly in
jured that he died on Tuesday morning.
Chas. Donahoe, fireman, was thrown a

bruises, but it is thought he will recover
James Mills, flagman, who was stand
ing on the rear bumper of the callaboose
car, had his arm broken. head cut and
was otherwise bruised and also badly
scalded. From the latter his life is en-
dangered.
Nathan Rosenraux, a Jew peder, hail
ing from No, 20 Mott Street, New Y ork
City, who was passenger i'll the calla-
boose car, had his right arm torn of Just
below the shoulder and was badly scalded.
He died on Tuesday morning
John Hodge, of Kentucky, employed
by one Of the drovers, was instantly killed,
as was also another man who was un-
known to any person on the train. There
were no papers or marks about him
whereby to discover who he was, or
where he was from.

WALTER BELL, NJ. D., of Summitville, to
Miss CECEIIA YODER, of Altoona.
We had the pleasure of shaking hands

We congratulate the Doctor upon his
good fortune, in having persuaded Miss
Cecilia to become his wife. From our
personal acquaintance with the young
lady, we think he has made most excel

his solace in affiiction and who is to be a
partaker of his joys and sharer in his
sorrows in an unforeseen pathway through
life. We bespeak for them many years
of prosperity and happiness; and may
they through life, ever enjoy an uninter-
rupted millennium Of connubiaI bliss, in
that sacred communion between husband

is a strictly private house, occupied by

the furniture, books, pictures, mirrors,
pianos, dresses, and cupboards thrown out

women 1t is as impossible to describe
these heart-rending scenes as it is for one
who was not a witness to them to form

After seven hours of destruction, the

upwards of 200 in number, covered with
wounds and contortions, to the citadel
These poor people were without hats or

off their backs. Among them were sew

In Moidowav street, where there is
church, these unfortunate people knelt
down to say silent prayer, but the sol
diery rushed upon them with their bayo-
nets, tore them from their kneelmg posi-
tion, and forced them to march on.
Meanwhile the women and children, thus
deprived of their natural protectors, were
exposed 10 the insults and obscene Jokes
of the drunken soldiery, without a home
even without warm clothing against the
cold. About l. p. m, short time be-
fore the men were taken to the citadel, a

In solitude they laid him down.

No friend was there to shed tear.
Or o'er his form to weep;
No mourner followed his lone bier
To his last place of sleep.
He nobly fought, and nobly fell
In service of his land
He served our Flag and country well.
Thus hon ring his brave land.
No proud escort or grand display
Does honor to his name,
But will not that last Judgment day
Reveal his deeds of fame.

Reveals the truly brave.

Till the last trump shall sound;

CHEAT IN LIQUORS.

spurious Liquors, we nave learned, Can
be sold at almost any price you choose to
name. Reason why? Brandy, Gin, and
Wines, so called, are manufactured all
over the country, in almost every village
where they are sold. Tney are made out
of cheap kind of liquor, whiskey for
example, reduced with water, colored, and
smell and flavor made according to order.
This cheating process is carried on to an
enormous extent. Indeed, we are nform-
ed that thousands of gallons of these
cheap, adulterated, poisonous, villainous
compounds are manufactured in Montpel-
ier, Rutland, Brattleboro, and other towns
in this state. They can be, and some of
them are sold much cheaper than any
pure liquors can be afforded, and even
some temperance men will buy them for
medicine because they can get them at a
lower price.
Judge Chase, the Commissioner of
Washington County, during the last two
years, took pains to secure pure liquors,
for the town agents in the county by hav-
ing them analysed. We think there has
been but little reason to find fault with
-,
the liquors furnished Messrs. Bird g. Co.,
of New York. Chas. Backam g. Co., who
are furnishing the agents in this county
will no doubt send pure, good liquors.
They are to be analysed and thoroughly
tested by competent chemist. Still peo-
pie buy poor article of alchohol, in
preference to good one, if they can get
it ten cents cheaper on gallon. They
will purchase adulterated, poisoned IL
quors, in preference to the pure article, if
they can get it at less price; and there
are plenty of enemies of temperance who
are ready to cry out, when they taste
spirits that, they are told, were purchased
at the town agency, 20, that is very bad
liquor. They've got some brandy or gin,
rum or whisky as the case may be,
sat -" naming some dealer who is sell
ling in violation of the law of the State,
"that is first rate, and it comes much
cheaper, too"
There are plenty of travelling agents,
all over the State, who are selling occas-
ionally good liquors--but, generally, the
vilest compounds that ever sawsthc SUM-
And when people will patronize these lille
gal sellers, and buy "stuff" " that is but
noxious compound, in preference to liquor
that has been tested and found to bepure
simply because it is cheaper in price,
what encouragement is there to try to fur.
nish them pure liquors? They will de-
nouncc tie town agents, declare their Ii
quors are bad, and praise up the illegal
dealers
If the people and the town agents would
let these travelling liquor agents alone ant
have nothing to do with them, and pur
chase only those liquors sold by lega
agents-liquors that have been tested
they would then escape the evils Of adul
terated, poisoned spirits
II is we'll known that almost all kind
of liquors are much higher in price thar
they have been; but how easy it is fol
these liquor dealers to add third or ever
half barrel Of water to barrel Of de
cent proof spirits, and pretend to sell a
q reasonable price, when the fact is b
