papar say:
The Republicans are bound to 90 under

blacks. Manhood suffrage is not side

If the blacks are not enlranchised, Vallan-

the Southern States were reconstructed on
white basis, be would and could carry all
but one Of the late fifteen slave States by
overwhelming majOrities as the late cleo
tons in Maryland and Kentucky attest. The
Democratic party, reinforced by the late
rebels, would rule US with rod of iron from
the hour that reconstruction without negro
suffrage was cOnsummated. We defy any
one who can count twenty to shut his eyes
to the fact that the fourteen Southern States

Narrow Oscar Fearful Leap Smash
up--Accidents on the Mississippi Cen
tral Railroad

81 d 4sctk4LUdu.
Seldom indeed does an accident or
mishap occur on the Mississippi Central Rail-
road From the following paragraph which
we clip from the Public Ledger of the oath
inst, it viii be seen that misfortunes viii
happen in the best Of families
While the freight train on the Mississippi
Central railroad was going southwark Tues
day morning from Grand junction, the track
suddenly spread. The result was the
smashing and almost complete demolition
of one car, and the damaging Of six others.
Fortunately, no person aboard was injured.
On the same morning an accident occurred
to the northward bound passenger train on
the same road. eight miles from Holly
Springs. The train was proceeding over
lengthy stretch Of trestle- work, at full speed,
when suddenly the forward car ran of the
rails and commenced jolting over the ties.
| The train was at least fifty feet from the
ground, and at a distance of fifty yards from
the end of the trestle-work. The engineer,
Mr.. Savage, promptly reversed the engine,
hoping to stop the train before 1t could be
precipitated below, which result seemed in
eyitable, but the impetus was too great, and
marvellous as 1t may seem, the cars continued
en- route at great speed, every moment less
euing the distance between the trestle-work
and the firm track beyond, and passing to
place of safety without a single car being
detached, or a single car injured. A gentle
man aboard the train informs US that no
words can depict the horror of the passengers
during the few moments Of peril All knew
the trestle work was great distance from
the ground, and every moment anticipated
| being hurled below. When the train finally
stopped, the feelings of the lately imperilled
passengers may be more easily imagined
/ than described.
During the perilous passage of the train
the conductor, Mr.. Long, deeming its escape
| from destruction impossible, jumped from
! the platform Of car to the ground, dis
lance of thirty-fve feet at that point The
! injuries sustained were of trivial charac-
ter. This was one Of the most remarkable
railroad accidents on record, and the escape
CT the passengers from either death or hor-
rible mangling seems scarcely less than a
miracle
