simple fact the escaped passengers of the
Inflated Coach owe their lives. Had the
baggage car gone through on the same line
upon which it entered. not a soul could
have escaped. Thus it was that the for
ward passengers were instantly crushed to
death. A little farther back, and The ele-
walton of the death dealing car brought in
line with the tops Of the seats, and here it
was that heads were crushed like egg
shells. A little farther. and those who
we're standing were struck down. while but
step beyond. passengers escaped without
scratch save from the splinters OF the
wreck.
Language has no power to depict the
scene. Within the compass of few feet
inside that fatal car was compressed the
bruised and bleeding bodies of the dead.
the manned and dying The red velvet
cushions had deeper dye from the life-
bloc Of the victims. and the removal Of
the bodies living and dead, from the debris
of the car was full of horrors.
a number of the deal were so tightly
wedged between the bottom Of the baggage
car and the passenger cosch that the bag
gage car had to lie raised by jack screws
before they could be taken ont The car
dipped with blood like slaughter pen.

The Election in Marshall County.

We publish an interesting Article o-day
from the Indiana Journal in regard TO the
startling revelations made by Horace Hef-
fren. Deputy Grand Commander of the
Order Of Sons of Liberty for the State of
Indiana, which every one ought to read
and remember for future use We trust
the trials Of the conspirators will not cease
until every one connected with the infa i.
nous plot is exposed anil held up to pub
lie execration. 1t is duty the authori-
ties owe to the loyal portion of the people
to ferret ont every conspirator so that they
may know the men who proposed to mur-
der them. destroy their property and turn
their wives and children ont of doors to
freeze and starve. Heffren states that al.
most every Democrat in Washington
county belonged to the Order Of S. L..
and we have little doubt that large pro.
portion of the Democracy of this county
belong to it. II John &. Cushman and
Hon. Horace Corbin were pus on the wit
ness stand they might give Us some light
on this dark subject.

The Rail Road Disaster.

We published brief account last weel,
Of the appalling railroad disaster which oc.
Cured on the 31st ult., on the Indianap-
olisand Lafayette road, by which % persons
were instantly killed. among them Elder
B. Wynans, lately OF this district, and Ii
or 20 others more or less injured. The
following from the Lafayette Courier sup.
plies the details, unsurpassed in horror by
those Of any similar tragedy that has oc.
Cured for months past:
The regular Cincinnati express, due here
at four O'Clock in the afternoon, bv the
new time card, collided with q cattle train
on curve one and a half miles this side
of Culver's Station, abuut seven miles
from this city. The passenger train was
twenty minutes behind, bnt waiting the
requisite time at Stockwell, had the un-
doubted right to the road, and was moving
at rapid speed when on turning the curve
beyond Cnlver's Station the cattle train
was observed. but too late to avert.
Next to the engine. as usual, was the
baggage car. belonging to the Lafayette
and indianapolis Railroad, next was q
first class coach belonging to the Michigan
Central road, and this was the fatal car in
which death held high carnival. The bag
gage car was about fourteen inches mar
rover than the passenger coach. and little
higher onthe trucks, and the force of the
concussion drove it, like the smaller Sec
ton Of spyglass, into and through the
passenger coach Immediately behind. The
baggage car rem aimed intact, and narrow
err. as we have said. came crushing thro'
the coach. sweeping off the top, but leav-
ing the sides OF the car unbroken. Like o
monster bsttering ram il swept everything
before it. and scarce single passenger in
the forward part escaped instantaneous
death.
AS it entered the coach it jumped the
forward trucks upon which it rested. and
the end dropping about twelve inches. for
want Of support. gave the baggage can an

tfontiemanlV Conduct!

Some Democrats in Green township, in
order to show how well they have been
brought up. and eluciia,e their cozserva-
tism, have been amusing themselves by
making carricaturcs Of Sambo and depos-
iting them at the doors OF UEion men,
Two or three of these earricatures have
been left OF Santa Anna school house
where young lady is engaged in teach
ing; but they did not intend 1t as an indig-
nifty to the young lady; OF course not; the
idea Of modern Democrat insulting de-
feneeless young lady is absurd in the ex-
'trerne! II, however. we are mistaken in
this conclusion. and they do it to annoy
Union families VIC hopo they will continue
she business II it affords them any amuse-
ment. They will at least have their labor
for their pains If nothing more.

From General Sherman's ARMY.

Officers who arrived in this city yester.
day. direct from Chattanooga. report that
General Sherman returned to Atlanta
early last week. with five corps of his
army. having left two corps in Tennessee.
.nnder General Thomas, TO watch Hood.
They say that Sherman first destroyed the
railroad from Chattanooga to Atlanta.
and is now sen1ing the iron to the former
city. He then burned Atlanta and march
ed with his entire army in the direction Of
Charleston.
Before him lies the broad expsnse Of
the Gulf and Atlantic States, and he can
shape his march to suit his incinations.
for there is no force to bar his progress.
Before him. to his right. is Mobile,
around which the Gulf forces are slowly
ntrating; to his left is Andersonville,
pen in which are rotting thousands Of
soldiers; and not an Unreasonable distances
to the southeast are Savannah and
Charleston; to the north east are

conveyed in the anonymous letter to Gov

days ago. He thought it possible, as the
letter exhibited unequivocal marks of be-

been formed to murder the Governor, and
he desired TO test his suspicious by evil
