Railroad Collision.

The freight train which leaves the Grand
Trunk depot in this city at o'clock P. NJ,
left as usual last evening, and had proceeded
about two miles beyond the Falmouth depot,
when it came in contact, suddenly and with
out premonition, with an inward bound spec
ial freight train. The conclusion was so
great as to smash the engines badly, throw the
cars one upon another, and scatter the sleep
ers and rails with which the special trai1 was
loaded, In all directions. The worst of the
collision was that Mr.. John Pencil of this
city, conductor Of the special train, and who
was on the engine with several others, had
both legs broken and terribly mangled, be-
sides receiving other injuries. SO badly was
he injured that he died before being removed
to his residence after he was brought back to
this city.
William l.. Shackley of Paris, fireman OF
the special train, was injured slightly.
On the outward train there were five passen-
gers, among whom was Mr.. Loring cashier of
the Press Office. The first intrimation they
had of any danger was the shock which scat
tered them all about the saloon car in which
they were sitting. Strange to say none of
them received any injury.
Mr.. Henry l. Thurston of this city, brake
man on this train, was standing on step at
the forward end Of box car near the engine,
manning tine break. The shock threw the car
forward of that back upon the one on which
be was standing, breaking both of his legs,
and combining him so closely that II required
some time to extricate him from his position,
and this was only effected by the use of axes.
1t is thought he will recover. though he may
have to suffer amputatlon of one if not both
legs.
The saloon car Of the outward bound train,
containing the passengers, employees, and
wounded men, was brought back to the city
by an engine dispatched for that purpose, ar
irving here about half past ten o'clock. DIR.
Robinson was at the depot and did all in his
power to alleviate the suiTerings Of the injured
ones.
There is certainly great blame somewhere
for this melancholy occurrence, and we hope
1t will be sifted out.

Eagle Coffee Mills.

Messrs. L. J. Hill d Co., proprietors of the
Eagle Coffee Mills, have recently removed
their establishment to No. % York street,
where new mill has been fitted up with am
pie power and all the recent improvements
This firm have been extensively engaged ia
the Coffee and Spice business for several years
putting up such qualities and in such quaint,
ties as the trade of the State and adjoining
States have demanded.
They claim very great advantage in roast
ing coffee by using Landstone's Patent Soap
Stone Rooster, which claim is substantiated
by the testimony of eminent chemists and the
best judges of good coffee. Messrs. L. j. III.
d Co., have the exclusive right OF this rooster,
which is lined with soap stone, leaving the
coffee in a much better condition than when
prepared ia iron. The different grades of
coffee are neatly put up in pound papers, or in
bulk, and labelled SO as 10 be convenient for

The Battle of Friday at iaaafa - Terrible
Sfd"ghfrr tm9HJ the Rebels.
WASHINGTON. July %.
The Republican extra, says the Govern
ment has received dispatches, representing
that great battle had been fought in Atlanta
on Friday, resulting in a horrible slaughter and
the complete repulse of the enemy at every
point. The rebels holding the greater part of
the city, assaulted our works that day with
great fury. evidently expecting TO drive our
men out of The place. The 18th corps seemed to
be the special object OF rebel wrath, as they
massed against it in overwhelming iorce. The
18th received the shock and held its owp, un-
till the 10Th corps came up, when.the rebels
were pushed back with great slaughter.
Gen. Logan at the head OF the 18th corps,
went into the battle with the rallying cry OF
" Remember Mcpherson" This corps, as
well rs the 18th, fought desperately, news of
the death of their brave commander having
been communicated TO them just before going
into tile. The terrible struggle ended by
repg!~isg the enemy at every point Of the line.
Ii was arranged that on Saturday the dead
of both armies should be buried, and the
wounded removed under flag of truce.
Oar troops buried On Saturday 1000 rebels
who were left on the field within our lines, be-
sides which the rebels buried many Of their
own dead themselves near their works. Upon
this basis it is estimated that the rebel killed
aud wounded on Friday exceeded 5000. Our
loss reached about $500 killed aud wounded.
The 18th corps suffered severely, the enemy's
troops having been massed against it.
While the work Of burying the dead and
removing the wounded was going on Satur-
day, Sherman's heavy artillery was playing
upon the city. At the same time large fires
were observed in different parts of Atlanta,
supposed to have been caused by the destruc-
ton of the supply depots and other rebel prop
erty which the enemy could not carry off. and
did not wish 10 fall into our hands. This is
considered as an evidence OF their intention
to abandon the place.
Several rebel generals are reported to have
been killed, but their names are not given.
NEW YORK, July %.
The Pests special Washington dispatch
says there has been no fighting at Atlanta
since Friday. All that Is officially known as
to the occupation OF the city is that sherman
holds the first line of the enemy's entrench-
ments
