! NEW YORK. Jan. q.
The Commercials money article says q more con-
ident tone prevails in Wall Street, and prices show
tendency 10 react from the late decline. The for
eign news is reassuring, and caused an advance in
Governments, and partial weakness in gold.
A tendency to operate in railroads for rise, noted
yesterday is most fully developed and resulted in an
advance of q per cent. at the morning board. AZ
ter the Board, however, the prices showed less firm
but with no important changes. Parties in the
street interest," which is very large, disposed to
resist the forward movement; SO any important re-
covery in prices is perhaps hardly to be anticipated
There is important clique combinations on either
side of the market.

There is better supply of produce bills, but the

Raitroad accident.

PoUGHxEEPsIE, N. Y. Jan. 81.
As the Cincinnati express train on the Hud-
son river railroad, which left here this morn
ing, reached a point near Croton, it ran on a
broken rail throwing the two rear cars off the
track. The one next to the extreme rear was
thrown ON its side and dragged distance of
nearly eighty rods, and on to one of the bridges
in that vicinity. The timbers and the debris
of the bridge crushed into the cars, iniuring
several passengers. One of them, Mr.. Nichols
of this city, had both hands badly cut A la
dy had two fingers cut off A man, name not
ascertained, had leg broken, ndothers were
seriously injured. Noone was killed as was
reported in the afternoon dispatch. The en-
gineer of the train thinks the train which
passed down in advance of him must have
broken the rail. The hind car of the train
which met with accident, did not turn over.
Neither car was sleeping car, nor were either
of the cars thrown off the bridge into the road
below as was reported.
Among the passengers Injured by the rail-
road disaster, were S. s. McEwen of Utica,
and wife, and John Murphy. They were
brought to this city. ia}

The Heralds Richmond correspondent says
one of the Virginia delegation, waiting admis-
sion to Congress, telegraphed to that city from
Washington last Wednesday, that it is the in
tention Of President johnson to supercede the
present Virginia State government by pro-
visional one. This received credence in Rich
mond and has therefore of course created much
connection and CONSERVATION in financial as
well as political affairs; and the surmises as 10
the cause OF the Presidents reported determi-
nation, are numerous as well as serious, it be-
ing generally attributed to the intractable con-
duct of the legislature.

residing at No. % Gray street, while preparing
to attend church yesterday morning, suddenly
fell to the floor. Her nephew, who was in the
room at the time, called his mother, who i'm
mediately came, and upon raising her sister
discovered that she was lifeless. Two surgeons
were soon in attendance, but the vital spark
: had fed. Her death was instantaneous, and,
without doubt, was caused from disease of the
heart.
the deceased was an estimable maiden LADY,
about 5S years Of age. Her remains will be
taken to Yarmouth, where she formerly resid-
ed, to be placed along side of those of her
mother and other members of the family.

some compensation for what they then lost.
