variety Of parts in custom. with all the skill
and seeming appreciation of human artists
This affords delightful and really wonder

THE HORSE RAiLRoAD-We are informed
that the application Of the President OF the
Horse Railroad Company for permission to
lay their track through Congress to Vaughan
Street was made on the 9th OF May. The
early part of June, the time being appointed
by the President, the Board of Aldermen met
and unanimously voted to grant the permits
sion, With the proviso that the company should
pave the street with cobble stones eighteen
inches outside OF the granite blocks. This
vote was immediately communicated to the
President Of the road. The next day he went
TO the City Clerks Office, aud, ia the presence
Of Alderman Messer, stated that the company
would not accept the permit on those condi-
tiols. There the matter rested until the re-
port was .-ade by the committee Monday,
June goth, when 1t was accepted by the Board
OF Aldermen. From these facts 1t seems the
company had notice some weeks since of
what the decision of the Board of Aldermen
would be.

Railroad Incident Operations -fronnd Fort
Darling.
NEW YORK. June ~.
The Commercial reports an accident on the
Erie Railroad this morning, caused by the
giving way OF one of The rails. The entire
train was thrown from the track, causing the
death OF number of persons, and irjfripg
many others. The location is not stated.
LATRR.-The reported accident on the Erie
Railroad was exaggerated. The collision was
between freight and gravel train. Only one
man, laborer on the road, was killed.
The Commercials army letter of the 18th,
states that Gen. Fosters force has probably
ere this attacked Chapin's Bluff, and perhaps
captured it. This would permit the erection
of strong counter work to operate against
Fort Darling. A heavy line of Entertainments
concentrating sweeping fire on Drury's
Bluff is evidently the design OF Gen. Grant.
