There were men born and nurtnred

Fearful Incident I'm IL Royal Fro -ress

Ecnrfa IL Incident i'm l, Royal Fro ,ress.
A correspondent, writing from Ma
drld on the 18th ultimo, says:
Yesterday afternoon, the Queen
and the King Consort arrived here
from Portugal, and alighted at the
Southern station, from whence her
Majesty proceeded at once to the
Church Of Otocha to offer thanks for
her safe return to Che capital The
way from the railway terminus to
that church was lined by troops, and
the Queen drove in an open carriage
and four. In the morning, the
Queen, the King Consort and the
Prince Of Austria, with their suite,
had assisted at Daimiel at n funeral
service celebrated for the victims of
the sad accident which occurred at
the station Of that place on the 9th
instant, during the progress Of their
NlaJesties to Lisbon, on the new line
connecting the two capitals. D,imiel
Is about fifteen miles from Badaioz.
The adjacent lands of the station Of
that small town were thronged with
people anxious to obtain sight of
the august travellers. At the sound of
whistle, coming from the distance.
the crowd pushed on to the station
and broke the bars, in spite of the
efforts Of the civil guard.
According to the official arrange
ments, the royal tain was to stop ten
minutes at Daiml'l station, and no
misfortune would have happened but
tor a accommodating locomotive.
Whether on account OF the new open
ing of the line, or of precautionary
measures Of another kind, the royal
tram was preceded Il mile or so by a
locomotive worked by men whose
duty it was to see that the line was
quite safe. 1t was not to stop at
Daimiel. Moreover, the weather was
rather foggy. The warning whistle
was heard several times, but the
crowd, over-contiding in the pro-
gramme, remained at a stand still,
spread about the line. Suddenly the
locomotive emerged from the fog,
proceeding at inn speed; it had
almost reached the throug when the
conductor tried to stop it. It was in
vain. The locomotive passed over
the groups of living people with the
velocity of lightning. smashing down
all obstacles. Its noise was stuffed bv
the cries of agony and terror uttered
by the whole crowd, aud when the
confusion had diminished a little,
seven corpses were found upon the
line, among twenty seven bodies still
breathing, but horribly mutiia.ed.
The line had been scarcely ule..red
from the dead and the wounded be-
fore the royal train was in sight; and
when 1t stopped ut the station, the
wheels of the carriage were dyed
with blood and spattered with uman
remains. The Queen was much
affected by the awful scene, and when
informed of its appalling details. her
Majesty !s;;rst into tears, took an
active part in the administering of
The first succor, and gave ~, 900 reals
for the families of the victims. The

DIED.

On the morning of the 10th of March,
1867, at Jordan Springs, Tennessee, of Pneu
moniN, Mr.. RICHARD W. DANIEL, aged 4s
years.
Mr.. Daniel was native Of Montgomery
county, Tennessee, where he lived all his
life. He had long been in delicate health
and of enfeebled constitution. During his late
attack of disease everything that kind friends
and attentive physicians could do to alleviate
his intense sufcrings, was done with cheer
full hands and anxious hearts. But in spite
of all efforts to prevent it, Death claimed
him, and leaves the community in which he
lived in deep sorrow at the loss Of most ex-
emplary citizen and generous friend, and
the pious companionship of a high toned
educated, christian gentleman.
May his body rest in peace, safe from the
storms, TRIALS aud suferings of this life, and
may his immortal soul ever dwell in the re.

Tobacco Market.

A slight cessation of the two months raj
we have had, increased our receipts of Tobacco
last week, and we report the offerings at Al
hogsheads.
Prices were very irregular, up one day
and down the next. Our buyers have strug
g,ed hard to prevent any decline in spite Q
the recent low sales made in New York.
Planters have generally accepted the stu
alton, knowing that the decline is smalle
here than at other points; though some few
rejected the bids upon their crops, seeming t.
be of the impression that the long spell of We
weather will prevent the burning of plan
beds in time to secure plants for the coming
crop.
Prices were much better towards the las
Of the week, though the sales were larger.
Our market opened this week by sales OF
Tuesday, at the Exchange of 1862 hogsheads
Prices fell off somewhat from FRIDAYS fig.
urcs, but the general tone was firm ant
strong. The breaks were Of good, usefu
tobacco, with but little trash or fine leaf
On Wednesday, Messrs. Poindexter 4 Co.
sold 1877 hogsheads and two boxes.
The sale opened with much amin alton
and prices stiffened as it progressed, and clos
ed with an advance of !@ac upon the pre-.
vious days quotations.
The highest prices were $2l 90 for a hid
raised by Mr.. Henry Dycus, $40 90 for box
of yellow wrappers, raised by Mr.. NJ. Jones
of this county, and $27 80 for a lot Of bright
leaf made by Mr.. r. NJ. Moss, of Christian
county, Ky.
Among the sights Of the day was beau
tiful sample of "Chingagora leaf raised by
Mr.. p G. Hamburger of this county. Mr..
Fl. rejected the bid after the nuctioneer had
obtained an almost fabulous price. Monsieur
A. Vautier, the French buyer, was anxious
to secure it. to exhibit at the Exposition, al

feel some good results from the large
amounts Of money disbursed here in the past
two months. AS their rents and other ex-
penses are only one-fourth as much, as in
large cities, and their freichts on goods only
a fraction more, they can sell at lower prices
than any city west of the mountains.-
Messrs. Crusman & Chestnut seem to appre-
ciate the efforts of the tobacco trade, to res
tore its ancient prosperity to our little city,
and two weeks since, treated buyers and sell
lers to handsome basket Of choice liquors
They have just received large additions to
their stock, and as they sell for cash and
turn their money quick, they ask only a
small advance on cost.
We noticed this week on our breaks, to-
bacco from Nashville and Louisville. The
results were satisfactory to the shippers
May we not soon hope to hear from Harris
vile and huntsville? We have five buyers
here waiting for those free, leafy, sweet to-
baccos.
