~RAILRoAD AcoTDEHT-A MAN KILL
Ep-An accident occurred on the Central
Ohio railroad short distance this side of
Z4uesville on Tuesday afternoon which re-
suited in the death of man named James
Bird. The deceased was walking down the
track when he was overtaken by the pas
senger train going west. He was struck
by the COW catcher on the engine. and
thrown off the track, his head striking
against bar of railroad iron lying along
side of the track, killing him instantly,
breaking in aud crushing his skull,
1t is alleged, that the train was approach
ing the depot, within the corporation linn
Ate. at rate of speed. some say twenty
6ve to thirty miles an hour, and that the
whistle on the engine, was repeatedly
sounded, hut that no attention was paid to
the warning thus given which is not to be
wondered at, when the fact that Mr.. Bird
was almost entirely deaf is known, yet it
appears that no effort was made, on the
part of the engineer, or others having the
train in charge to check up the speed. Mr..
Bird not hearing the warning, was neces-
arfIy thrown of the track by the approach
ing engine.
This is the fourth accident occurring
within city feet of the same spot, and with.
in one year; and ell resulted from the
same cause. Such reoklessnesss is unWar.

children to mourn his untimsly death.

Rev. MIR. TayloT's Lecture.

The above gentleman delivered one oil
the most graphic, eloquent, truthful and
f1nwery lectures at the Court House last
Monday evening, that we have heard in
a long time, and we sincerely regret that
the state OF the roads prevented the
house from being as full as it otherwise
would have been. Everything OF inter,
est. connected with the first campaign OF
The regiment, from their arrival al
Bonneville until their departure for
Springfield, was sketched with a mas
terly hand, and his delineations OF battle
scenes and camp life, were instructive
and thrilling. Mr.. Taylor goes on west
10 repeat his lecture in other towns, and
we would advise the people TO turn opt
and hear him, by all means.

Governor has issued his Ne ereat forbid
ding all persons to leave the State, prior
to the 10th of March. This is rather
rough on the Idaho chaps, and we would
advise friend HEDGES TO bring round the

ever, and will state that he sent forth

Touching.


We learn that one OF our cilize ms who
has always been troubled with secession
proclivities, and whose sympsthies Lave
been with the South from the com
mencement OF the war. met with quite a
heavy loss during the late reception Of
our soldiers. The artillery was placed
in such position that pane OF glass
belonging TO the window of his store
was broken by the conclusion; and now
the patriotic individual claims Of the Fl
nance Committee the huge sum of SI.75
for damages. We hope and trust that it
will be paid. Let the small. niggardly,
pusilanimous soul have his money, for
il will be comforting assurance 10 him
and his guardian Satan to know that he
never contributed or lost cent for the
relief or enjoyment of our soldiers
When such a man, with such claim,
has the impudence TO ask redress at the
hands of our loyal citizens who have
given so freely in blood and treasure to
support the government. you may be
sure that lie is candidate who will be
scathed by the judgments of Heaven, f9r
sloh an act, to all eternity

Ev We should be doing ourselves
and readers injustice if we neglected to
speak of the Festival which came Of
lately at Morse's Hall. 1t was fine
thing, no mistake. Tables were loaded
with food to feed the hungry, peaches
and cream to tickle the palate of the ep-
icuran, and fancy articles, without end,
TO crafty the taste and relieve the wal
let of the admirer. Wit, poetry and
sentiment sparkled on all sides. Good
humor everywhere prevailed, and the
feast OF reason and flow of soul was un
diminished. The cash receipts were
near one hundred and thirty dollars.
