Troy, Sept. pa railroad accident &C.
Cured on the Rensselaer, & Saratoga r. R. at
the long bridge crossing the Hudson river at
this place, about o clock this evening.
A train was backing towards the city for the
purpose of starting out at o'clock. The en-
CINE was running tender foremost, followed by
two passenger cars and q baggage car. The
swing draw was open at the time and the
usual lights were displayed, but the engineer
misunderstood them and did not no tice the
open draw until close upon it. The locomo-
tive, Joy Gould, plunged forty feet into the
deep water of the channel, and was followed
by one of the passenger cars, which was nearly
submerged. The other passenger car was
suspended over the abutment. Citizens were
startled by the escaping steam from the engine
and light of the woodwork, which caught fire.
Ladders were soon procured to reach the
wreck. A raft had lodged against it, and the
men upon and the steamboat towing it, for
which the draw was opened, had a narrow
escape.
