From the New York Observer. I

We have had in use for months past one Of
Vests Pumps, which has given US more sat-
isfaction as force and lifting pump than any
we have ever used. 1t 10 one of great power,
and well adapted for ships decks, mines, fac
tories, greenhouses, graperies, &C., &c. The
Mining Chronicle and Railway Journal says:
1t is recommended for its extreme simplicity
of construction, groat strength, and conse-
quent durability and cheapness of repair
There is no stuffing box-the pressure being
held by cup packing, like that upon the
working piston, working in cylinder, fitted
for the purpose within the upper air chamber
which we think great improvement, as stuffing
is so liable to be deranged, and leak under
strong pressure, to say nothing of the loss BY
friction incident thereto. 1t has also two air
chambers: thus the action Of the valve is
cushioned upon both sides by air-pr, venting
water hammer and vacuum thump. The valves
are very accessible, and simply and cheaply
repaired. They work much easier than any
pump we have ever seen; the 4 inch cylinder
being worked by children in wells 100 feet
deep, and as they are extremely cheap as well
as simple and strong, we freely recommend
them. .

The Narrow Escape of Gen. Grant.

The Cincinnati Gazette gives the following
particulars of the railroad disaster, already re-
ported, in which General Grant had a narrow
escape: -.
Lieutenant General Grant, in order 10 graft
fy the wishes of the people O. Indiana, visited
Indianapolis on Tuesday, and desiring 20 re-
turn TO this city Tuesday night, a special tram
consisting of a locomotive, tender and passen-
ger coach, was placed at his disposal. This
started from indianapolis late in the evening
and no mlshap was experienced until it reached
Guildford, about ten miles west of Lawrence
burg, at O'Clock a. m. AT this point, Just be-
fore reaching the bridge, the switch had been
partially displaced. The engine, tender and
the fore truck of the passenger coach, however
kept the track, but the hind truck OF the latter
was thrown off, and was dragged over the
cross-ties and across the bridge before the train
could be checked. There being heavy curye
at this place, the engineer had fortunately
checked the speed Of the train and il was mo-
wing slowly at the time of the occurrence, so
that the displaced car remained on the bed of
the road. The General and party were then
transferred to the engine and brought safely to
Lawrenceburg, where another car was pro-
yided. ..r
at was found that some one had broken the
lock from the switch and turned the latter,
with a view of throwing the train from the
track. Fortunately, the work was bunglingly
done. and to this fact the escape of the train
from being smashed is due, the locomotive
and tender having kept the track, and thus
prevented the car containing the General from
going over. 1t was a narrow escape. 1t was
not far rrom this place, on the same road, that
a train containing Gov. Morton was thrown
from the track some time ago."
The Gazette also says" The train on the
Ohio and Mississippi Railroad which left st.
Louis at $40 p. m. Tuesday, met with an acci-
dent which came near proving serious, twelve
miles east of Vincennes, about u o'clock the
same night. We learn from passengers that
soon after leaving East ST. Louis freight
train off the track was encountered, which
caused some delay. In trying to make up lost
time the train was run faster than the scheduie
provided, and when twelve miles this SIDE OF
Fincennes the two sleeping cars jumped from
the track and rolled over, mixing up things
generally, and bruising most OF the occupants,
cars renamed on the track. Gen Sherman
was passenger in one Of the overturned cars,
hut was not injured Having dragged himself
ont he was seen smaking for the 'front.' which
noint he reached, and taking a seat in another
car. he succeeded in reaching Lawrenceburg.'
