The Gold Market.

New YORK, July 2l.-Gold is quiet. The
bulls are struggling hard to buy up the
supply and thereby compel an advance, but
they have been somewhat embarrassed
the last day or two by sales made by the
Treasury Department for purposes known
to itself, but only surmised by others, the
object probably being to provide currency
for the payment of the August interest on
the seven-thirty notes. To-day the Treas
uryi is not selling gold. There is very little
doing in short sales, the bears being afraid
of the strength of the bull clique. The
quotations opened to-day at 1929, and clos
ed at 1925. H..

Fatal Railroad Accident. /.

One of the most distressing railroad dis
asters that has occurred In this section O
the State for many years, took place on tn,
Central Ohio railroad yesterday morning
The passenger Express train No. 8 left tn,
depot in this city going east, at 4:2O A. M.
laden principally with discharged soldiers
who were returning to their homes.
When the, train had arrived at a poin;
about one mile west of Columbia in Lick.
ing county, and eighteen or nineteen miles
east of this city, truck of the engine was
broken, and the consequence was that the
train came to sudden halt, the cars ran
into each other and a general smash-up
took place. -"
The'scene that followed was most appal-
ing. Eight persons were killed outright.
Six of them were soldiers OF the 18th o. v.
l., who had the day before received their
discharge at Camp Chase. OF the other
two, one, we understand, was clergyman
from illinois, and the other an employee on
the road.
Nineteen or twenty others were wounded
OF these, we learn, that three were not ex-
pected to survive. Some of them were
horribly mangled and mutilated, and sew
eral had to have their woundad limbs ann
putated. A portion OF the dead and wound-
ed were taken eastward to their friends,
and Others brought back to this city. Z q
We understand that all the killed and in
jured were on the platforms Of the cars at
the time the accident occurred, We have
not been able to obtain the names either Of
the killed Or wounded, or any other partic-s
ulars than those above stated. We shall
endeayor to give. additional facts in our
next issue. a #. ai9 S d FL ,srsi5isid

Thaddeus Stevens.

This gentleman delivered 4 speech at tho
Court House, at Lancaster, Pennsylvania, a few
DAYS ago. the substance Of which we reproduce
elsewhere. lie rejoices over the successful ter
mination Of the war, but is distressed, he says,
by passing events. He regards President John
sons theory of reconstruction as wholly wrong,
and would have the South held as conquered
provinces. He declared himself TO be in favor
of confscating the property of all Southerners
worth over ten thousand dollars, who had, IN
any manner. committed themselves to the pros
ecution of the war. He estimated that this
property would produce sum OF over three
thousand millions of dollars, which, he proposed
should be used to compensate loyal men who
lost property in the war, to provide homes for
negroes, to increase The pensions Of soldiers and
towards liquidating the public debt He stated
that this debt, though usually estimated at four
billions Of dollars, is far beyond that amount,
and that the annual expenditure will shortly
be not less than five hundred millions Of dol
lars. He "alluded to the plea for mercy to the
women and children Of the South; but argued
that such feeling should not be allowed to inau-
ence us. He favored the most rigorous en-
forcenent of his doctrine, even if it should
drive all upon whom it operated into exile. =
Finally, towards the close Of his speech, he
"boldly avowed his belief that the very exis-
tence of the Republican party depended upon
the Rebel States being kept out of the Union
for while; their admission would render tho
success of the Democrats inevitable. "-Balti-
