Accident on the Broad Top Rail Road.

A serious accident occurred on the Huntingdon
and Broad Top Rail Road, Thursday morning the
18th inst, 3 few rods below the Hopewel station.
4 large stone fell upon the track as the train was
passing The hind wheels Of the passenger car were
thrown from the track, and dragged short distance,
when the coupling broke and the car precpitat-
ed down the embankmant into the river, distance
ofsixty feet. The car turned completely over, and
struck on the trucks, which had become detached
and were thrown down the embankment into the riy-
er. Ia the car were Jacob Reed John P Reed,
John Border, Alex. Defbaugh, John Nelson, and a
young daughter Of Wm. p. Sehell, ofthis Borough, a
man named Renford, of Somerset, Richard Langdon,
Rev Mr.. Stewart Miss Specie, daughter Of Christian
Specie, of Hopewen. Mr.. John Border was mortal
" injured and died at Hopewell the following morn
ing he was passing through Window but before
he got free from the car, the coupling gave way and
the ear in turning over fell upon him with crushing
weight. Mr.. Border, who was by trade gun smith,
was well known in the county. He was good citi-
zen, skillfuI and ingenious in his calling. He had
lately made some models of farming implements for
Mr. VIM. Hartley Of this place. He was on his re-
turn from Harrisburg where he had been on business
connected with these models. He leaves a wife and
several small children
Mr.. John P. Reed held the little daughter of Mr..
schell in his while the car mqde its eyoutions
down the bank. The child escaped without any con
tusons or other injuries, than terrific fright
Mr. Reed received slight bruises in the face and
good deal jared so much SO as to feel indsposed
to attend to business for the past week. Several
ceeded in getting out of the car before the coupling
broke; but Of those who remained inside, none
seriously injured. circumstance not at all singular.
In almost all accidents, in which cars have been
thrown from the track, serious injury, if any, has
resulted to those attempting 20 escape from the cars,
while few who remain seated in the cars are injured
