Terrible Accident in san FraneIacO.

OVER THIRTY PERSONS BURIED UNDER 4 FAILING
HOUSE.

Correspondence tAugust IS New York paper.l


A terrible catastrophe occurred in this city yes
terday morning A building known as the Sum
meF Street House, few doors west of Montgom-
cry, used as boarding house, fell to the ground
about O'Clock in the morning, burying in the
ruins nearly all the occupants. The exact number
known, but it is thought to be between thirty and
forty. Already eight persons have been taken
out dead, and fifteen to twenty wounded.
The accident appears to have been caused by
the following piece of gross earelessness: A eel
lar was being dug alongside the building and
those employed upon the work the day before
went so deep as to undermine the east wall of the
building to such extent that left it almost with
utsuppOrt Some time before the east wall FELL
the proprietor Of the house, hearing cracking
noise unusual in the building thought there might
be danger, aud aroused the inmates. He had sue.
ceeded in getting his wife and child into the street,
clear OF danger, and then f6olsllly returned and
was caught IN the Coraer as the side wall gave
way. He was so near the surface when the police
men and tiremen arrived on the ground and COM
meuced to eXtrcate Inn from his position that he
could be conversed with; and, indeed gsass of
aperture and he was requested TO keep o stout
heart, and he would soon be clear-when the front
wall gave way and fell, covering him completely.
He was gotten out soon afterward, but was quite
dead.
| was on the spot about o'clock in time to see
the sixth dead body taken out-that of stout,
healthy man, who had evidently been in he'd when
the crash came, and was no doubt killed outright
Al that time the police and fiTemen had done an
amount Of work almost Incredible, hut still there
was much left to be accomplished. Other bodies
were known to be still under the mass of bricks.
mortar and timbers, and without tagging the
duty, melancholy as it was, went on with vigor
for, although the chance was one in ten thousand
yet there might be life to be saved and a human
being to be rescued from his position Of torture.

Cone TO sLEEP.-The Boston Voice relates this
affecting story; " One day last week young, man
who was in Hamilton, Ohio, was run over BY a
locomotive, and so badly mangled that he died N
few hours. The poor fellow was carried INTO
house near the road, and physician was brought
TO him in a very short time; but it was evident
that he was beyond human help. He eonversed
cheerfully with his acquaintanees WIG came 70
wards turning to the physician, lie asked, Did

energy. and after a brief direction to have his

part of the people that the soldiers of 1861

of money as wall make their pay and bounty

listed after that data. Congress has passed a
law on the subject which will be found in
