RAILROAD RRCKLEssNEss.

The late terrible disaster in Canada ought 70
teach railroad managers the necessity OF adopt
ing every preoaution for the safety OF their pas
scngers. But. tho lesson seems to be thrown
away upon the Erie Railroad Company. NO
less than eight or nine disasters haye been
reported on the line almost within as many
DAYS. most of them attended by loss Oh
life, and nearly all Of them traeeable
either TO negligent employees or defective
time tables. Yesterday these accidents, destruc-
tive as they were to human lfe and accom-
panied by very serious loss Of property, came
very near being eclipsed by disaster OF the
most terribleand appalling character. The GUS
vile train, which daily brings to the city large
number of merchants and business men from the
numerous way stations on the road, when about
TO enter Bergen tunnel, found its way blocked
by an outward bound train OF the Morris and
Essex Road which here DIVORCES TO tho south,
inst emerging from the tunnel, and cross
ing the track directly in front OF the
down train. Both trains were thunder
ing along at great speed, and their perllou'
proximity was discovered barely IL time to
allow the Otsville engineer TO prevent his tram
cutting the other in two. The incoming train
was brought to q stand not a cars length from
the other. Had either been single second ear
her or later the inevitable result must have
been wholesale slaughter Of the passengers IN
both trains.
Words cannot adequately Characterize the
reckless management which allows two trans
to meet at such point. Yet ne are assured
that il Is by no means unusual for the engineers
Of these trains to race for the crossing the first
there dashing ahead regardless OF consequences.
Such conduct is almost an assurance OF disas-
ter, aud. if persisted in, will most certainly be
followed by bloody consequences. Unless the
Erie mane ,ers, who have full control OF The
road, so correct their timetable as to allow q
reasonable time to elapsc between the arrival OF
opposing trains at the crossing, and hold then
employees to a more rigid accountability, they
must expect the travelling public to shun a line
on which so little regard is paid TO the lives OF
nassengcrS I..I.

There is no Geographic communication with
Washington, and no news except from Phila-
dclphis aud from purely Rebel sources in this
city and Baltimore. On the authority of the
latter it is stated that 4. 7. Hills corps had
reached the Potomac, crossed it at Edwards
Ferry, and joined the column under Early.
The combined forces were to have assaulted
Washington yesterday --Or at latest to-day.
The story may be the same which was tele-
graphed from Washington and printed yester-
day morning. r. ...I.s.
Philadelphia news is that large portion OF
Che Gunpowder Greek Bridge, OIL the Whining
ton Railroad, was actually destroyed. aud will
require from four days to week for repair.
Meanwhile, there is communication by water
from Baltimore TO Pcrryyille, and thence to
Philadelphia The Baltimore aud Washington
Railroad, which was certainly open on Mon
day night, has probably been cut. Not
much can b. inferred from the break IN
the telegraph, a. that is always at the mercy Of
the Rebels who swarm along its line; but
there il a strong force near Washington medi-
tating either an attack on the city or an escape
across tho Potomac. il would make the seyering
Of the railroad FROM Baltimore prime object.
The public VIII do well TO keep in mind that
10 inference is TO be drawn from the absence Of
information. Rumors Of all sorts will abound
in the mouths Of idle men, but may be disre-
earded. We must obviously refrain from CIV
ing particulars, but We repeat that, whatever
the Rebel purpose may be in Maryland, there is
abundant strength on our side TO drive the ene-
myncross the Potomac.
LSer.-A Baltimore dispatch says the Q
o'clock train from Washington yesterday morn
ing came through, but that the telegraph was
cut at quarter before one, and the Rebels have
since been in possession OF the road, and are re-
ported in considerable force. s.s.s-..-r..
