AccIEENT-A BRAKEMAN SEVERELY IN
JURED.-William Simpson, a brakeman, was
severely injured at the depot yesterday
morning, by being caught between the
''bumpers" of two cars which he was en-
deavoring to couple together. His head
was caught between the two heavy cars and
squeezed in terrible manner, rendering it
difficult to recognize him. He was remov-
ell to his room, and medical assistance was
promptly rendered, buthis injuries are sup
posed to be so severe as tomake his recovery
doubtful. .n.L .l4-n-L

THIEvEs.-The number Of juvenile
thieves now in business in this city is some
thing surprising. In addition to three boys
engaged in the robbery mentioned on Sat-
urday, who were committed to the county
Jail, several more cases have since tran
spired, in which youngsters scarcely in
their teens have robbed their employers or
stolen money that came within their reach.
The police are kept busy hunting down
these thefts, and several arrests have been
made this week. There must be something
wrong with the rising generation, when
such an epidemic of larceny breaks out
among them.

THE CITY.

EMIdRANTs.-Despite the war and its in
seperable miseries, the dubious currency,
heavy taxes, and the loss of much Of our
old-time liberty and prosperity-now gone
glimmering in the mist of things that were
the tide Of immigration to this country
from still less happy shores, continues with
out intermission. Almost every eastern
train brings with 1t a load of foreigners, in
search of homes in the boundless Utica Of
the West, and the characteristics between
them and the other passengers are so
strongly marked that the unobserving must
observe them. The same old toggery, the
same curious caps, and the same homely
garb which warmed them in theirown coun-
try distinguishes them here. At the depot
yesterday we noticed large party ofstout
looking Teutons, under the guardianship of
Campan, our local commissioner of immi-
grafton, boarding the Cincinnati train with
all their household goods and gods. There
were representatives of three, perhaps four,
generations in the party, from the tottering
grandsire with his ancient pipe, down to
the tow-headed youngster, fat and round
as roll, who saw the light of this world
in the Fatherland three years ago; and be-
tween the cut of the pantaloons of the oc-
tagenarian and the three-year-older, there
was not shadow Of difference, except in
the size. After wearisome vigil at the
depot they boarded the train in great glee,
perhaps possessed Of as much of what they
ek-contentment-a they will probably
find at the end of the journey.
