SeTi0us and Fatal Accident on the Lake Shore
Railroad

A serious and fatal accident took place on
the Chicago and Milwaukee railway last Tues
day Just this side of Kenosha, at the south
end of the bridge there The cause of the
accident is said to have been the accumula-
ton of sand upon the track, blown there from
filings recently made The engine, by this
obstruction, was thrown from the track, and
went down an embankment distance of fifty
feet. The mail and baggage car followed, and
fell on top OF the engine, and the express car
fell on top of the mail and baggage car The
second class car next to the express car, and
full Of passengers, was partially thrown off
the track, hanging by the two hind trucks.
The Engineer with great presence of mind,
Immediately upon the discovery of the dam
ger, reversed the engine and applied the
steam brake, thereby stopping the train and
preventing the passenger car from being
thrown from the track. There were six of
these passenger cars, and all filled with pas
sengers, and but for the heroism and pres
euce of mind of the engineer all must have
ceen precipitated down the embankment and
in that case the destruction of life would
have been most fearful. As it was not a
passenger was hurt. But the safety of the
passengers was secured only at the cost of
the lives of the engineer and the fireman.
With noble self-sacrifice they stood ut their
posts. though they might have escaped, and
went down with the engine, and were so bad
IL injured that, We learn, they have since
died.
Let the names of engineer John Durff and
fireman Lewis Warren be remembered-be
ever cherished by every one of those passen-
gers-for to their heroic self-sacrifce they
owe their lives. Both of these are said tc
have been faithful, noble men, and universally
esteemed by those who knew them.
The other persons injured were Mr. Kit
fridge, Express messenger, and a newsboy
The former was severely bruised on the side
and cut in the forehead, but it is though
will soon recover; the latter had his arm and
nose broken, and was badly sealded. Some
! two or three other persons were also more o.
] less injured, but it is said not seriously

Gossip ab0ut General Grant---The VeXed
Question of the Generals Politics Settled AT
last---AIrs. Grant says Her Husband is a vers
Obstinate Man

Many inquiries have been made about Gen.
Grants politics. | am happy to inform your
readers from his own lips TO what party he
belongs and under what banner he marches
A near relative of his has been passing some
time in this city, While with General Grant
at the West, before he was made Lieutenant
General, the friend said to him. General,
l have been inquired of to-day about your
politics" Did you give the party any in
formation :" the quiet query. 81 did
not" was the answer, for l don't know what
your politics are" Knocking the ashes from
his cigar, the General continued: "When
resided at the South, l had the opinions and
prejueices of Southern people against the Re
publican party. | brought those opinions
and preiudices with me when | came to Hi
nois. Had | taken an active part in politics
| should have been with the party opposed to
the Republicans. | watched Mr.. Lincoln
course, and was satisfied with his patriotism.
But these are not the times for parties. In
deed, in this crisis there can but two parties
those for the country, those for its foes.
| belong to the party of the Union. Those
who are the most earnest in CARRYING on the
war and putting down the rebellion have my
support. As a soldier, / obey the laws and
execute the orders of all my superiors.
expect every man under me to do the same. "
When Mrs. Grant left Washington for her
Western home she remained short time in
New York at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. SIEVE
raj gentlemen called upon her, and in the
course of the conversation congratulated her
ON the elevation of her husband and express
ed a hope that he would be successful in this
campaign. Her whole manner, quiet, digni-
fed and reserved, seemed to express surprise
that any one could doubt his success. Paus-
ing a moment she replied: 81 have no
doubt but the General will succeed, for he is

Commanding General has been stopping here
some time and seems utterly COMPOUNDED with
the sudden growth of his neighbor, the tan
ner. He can't account for it, for he was
not a marked man in his home, and
nobody supposed him great man; he seldom
talked, asked no advice, gave none to any
one, but always did what he agreed to and at

FIRING Too HIGH.-In Southern newspa-
per saws the New York Times, we find an ac-
count of the late fight near Calhoun, in Geor-
ga, written by rebel correspondent on the
field and in a Western paper we find an &C
count of a subsequent fight few miles south
of Calhoun, near Rome, written by Union
correspondent on the field--in both of which
accounts there is curious analogy of state
ment concerning the ineffciency of infantry
fire from a cause which has often been point
ed out The rebel writer gives a highly col
ored account of a fight in which the MIME
balls OF the Yankees poured over the rebel
line in an unceasing stream" and adds; But
one thing saved US from a fearful loss of life,
and it was that tie Yankees fired entirely too
high" The Union writer, after giving an ac-
count of the very desperate fight at Rome
Crossroads, says: g 1t was a matter of won
der after the engagement, to ascertain that
the loss in action did not exceed seventy-fye.
1t could only be accounted for by the fact that
til. re5els fred too high, their balls striking al
ways above our heads" Our soldiers in the
field should be continually reminded of these
facts.

Death OF A PROMINENT REBEL.-Thomas
Butler King, of Georgia, died on the 10th of
Nav. He was for many years q leading po4-
tician, serving with considerable distinction
in the State Legislature and in Congress. In
his early life he was a Nullifer, but some
what modified his views subsequently, and
identified himself with the Wing party. On
the election of Gen. Taylor, he was appointed
Collector of San Francisco, and served two
wears. When the Rebellion broke out, he
took sides with his state, sent to Europe
as Rebel Commissioner, did what he could
in that capacity, and returned home to die.
He was man of winning manners, and was
greatly respected for his fine literary tastes
and amiable personal character.
