The Long Island Railrond Accident.

NEW YORK, Sept 2.-The Jury in the
case of the collision OIL the Long Island
railroad, have rendered a verdicU i'll su b
stance as follows; That the collision was
produced by the carelessness of X J Rail,
conductor of the mail train, and James
White, engineer of the express train ;
that LoAis C.. Sands and Daniel F. Chase
are not considered responsible, censuring
Oliver Charlick, President OF the railroad
company, for the careless and irregular
manner in which the trains are run, and
consider him individually responsible for
the catastrophe. Two of the jurors find
ID. + Chase, engineer of the mail train,
also guilty of carelessness. Ansther juror
finds Louis c. Sands, conductor of the
express train, also guiltyof carelessness
Three other jurors find r. j. Rail, con-
ductor, aud ID. F. Chase, engineer of the
mail frain, guilty of carelessness and in.
attention to their duties, and recommend
that more definite rules he adopted for
running irregular trains.
Sheriff Suedsker, who was one OF the
Jury, declined voting on the question ol
the general mismanagement of the run
ming of trains and accommodation fol
passengers, upon the ground that it is
not proper question for jury to de
termined, the only proper question being
was the road mismanaged that day, ant
if so by whoml J, c. Walker, another
inror, concurred in this opinion.

to look well to their duties, and to decide
for themselves what this oath and PEN
atty require at their hands. Suppose
the Legislature had extended the right
of voting to women, negroes, persons I'M
der age, or to persons who have not re-
sided in the State for the period prescrib
ed by the Constitution. Will Judge
HARRISON or the supporters of the Oath
Bill say that the officers of election, un
der their oath of office aud the penalties
imposed for an improper performance of
of their duties, would be bound tn re-
ceive such votes-would have no power
to exclude such votersl because, forsooth,
the Legislature had forgotten its consti-
tutional obligations and dutiesi The
Legislature had the same power to ertend
the right of voting to these classes, us to
require the Tyt Oath II had no more
power to restrict the elective franchise in
the Oath Bill, than to enlarge il, as in the
case supposed.
This article, already extended much
beyond our expectation, must close here
In our next issue we propose to review
this matter in some other of its aspects.
Mean while, we would say to-the officers
OF elections: Look well to your duties.
Suffer no man or men, whatever their po-
sition, to decide this matter for You; for
We know that, not only in this county,
but in many others in the State. you will
be called on to decide, under the oaths
aud penalties, and subject to the liahili-
ties, of your office, the question here dis

possible 10 produce the paper outside of

fact that it will wash.
