For instance, take the number 81, re

The number 81 has also somewhat re-

proceed with the multipl ioation, it being

INCIDENTS OF THE OCCASION.
Mr.. Erwin House, of this city, was stand
ing on a platform of the second train when
he saw the headlight of the third train rap
idly approaching. He threw himself head-21
long down the embankment, ana as he fell
the platform he had left was crushed into
splinters. Mr.. James Gale, of Boston,
found himself thrown through the front
window of the second carlow, he knew
not-and entirely uninjured. He was not
even cut by the glass. Mr.. Allison states
that he made his escape through a ventila-
tor in the roof of the sleeping-car. 1t may
be that he mistook window for ventila-
tor in the awful confusion of the moment.
An old colored woman with two children.
on her way to Cairo, missed one of the chill
dren. mere infant, as soon rs the accident
occurred. When released with her other
child she found the MISSING one lying on
the ground, yelling Justify. How it got
there, unless thrown through door, no.
body coulI tell. They were all lucky
enough to escape with slight bruises.
When the fire broke out, Conductor Sitter
was at the station sending for surgeons
He supposed the fire was one that had been
kindled in order to give light for the occa-
sion. He had no idea there was any danger
of fire to the train. Every possible effort
was made to tear the cars apart and save
them, and at the same time afford chance
to get at the dying people. But it was all
in vain, for the engines could not be used.
They had been too badly damaged by the
collision to work any more. All the bag
gage and express matter-at least fifty
thousand dollars wOrth-was saved from
the wreck.
1t seemed terrible that property repre-
senting mere dollars and cents could be
rescued, when five human beings were be
yond all chance of aid.
The loss of property by this accident is
very heavy, doubtless fully $4,000. How
| ever, that is too Insignificant too speak OF
when we consider that lives were lost.

PeriIs of Publishing.

About four months ago few young men
tried the experiment of starting new dali
ly paper in Brooklyn. They were good
writers, and the paper was spicy end read
able, but after a struggling existence CT
three months it suddenly expired for want
of patronage. The proprietors have just
gone into bankruptcy, and it is discovered
that their debts for three months expert
ment in journalism amount to over thirty
nine thousand dollars. A history of the
struggles and losses of men who have failed
in the newspaper business during the last
twenty years would be interesting read

The journal Don't Want PO1itf.
cal Capital Made Out of RePub-
lican Rascality.

Nearly two days after it had become
town talk, and twenty-four hours after it
had been published in the STATESMAN and
in the Cincinnati papers, the Journal gives
its readers, in brief notice. the fact that
BRooKEs, the Assistant Architect of the
Deaf and Dumb Asylum, had, like his prin-
cipal, been arrested for embezzling State
property and converting it to his own use.
In doing this, the Journal says:
"We are compelled to add in this connec-
tion that while things look exceedingly
dark, SO far as the parties engaged in the
transaction are concerned, we are utterly
opposed to the manufacture of political
capital out of the affair, as has been at
tempted by some opposition newspapers"
Both BLACKBURN, the Architect, and.
BRooKEs, the assistant, were pet officers OF
the party now in power, and had it not
been that the people decided that the next
Legislature should be Democratic, we
doubt not their embezz,ing would have
been fixed up so that the world would have
known nothing of it. Had these men ranked
as Democrats, and so far forgotten the
teachings of the party, as to have acted
dishonesty, the journal would not have
been so utterly opposed to the manufac-
ture of political capital out OF the affair."
but would have seized upon it with avidity
The ground we took in the matter was
that until they became State officials, both
BLACKBURN and BRooKEs were, so far as
the world knew and believed, honest men.
They came to Columbus, and believing that
ilching was the rule and honesty the ex-
ception among a class of Government OFF,
cials, they concluded to follow the fashion
and put money in their pockets.
| We do not believe that all the frauds,
stealing, etc., of State officials has yet been
brought to light. Other, greater and high
er crimes yet remain to be exposed, and
when exposed, we give the Journal due no.
tice that we will make just such use of the
facts as to US seems meet and proper.
careless of the censure, as we are inde-
pendent to its good opinion. And we
would just whisper in the ear of its editor,
that as soon as these Republican scamps
are detected and arrested, we will give
them an airing in the STATESMAN, for we
do not choose to aid that sheet in covering
up official rascality. AS we do with 9TH
ers, we are willing that the Journal, if it
ever finds Democrat stealing from the
State, should do unto US, and make all the
political capital out of it that it can.

A PROPOSITION is before the Alabama
Radical-negro convention to dissolve the
present government of the State on the
first OF next January, and providing for the
organization of provisional government
whose governor is to be appointed by the
convention, and he is to fill all the other
State offices with persons who can take an
oath such as the convention will designate.
The cormorants are in hurry for the feast.
If allowed to carry out that programme,
they will sink the State to perdition before
six months.

LATER accounts from Washington say
that by some means not known, one OF the
Judiciary Committee of the House OF Rep
resentatives has been converted to the i'm
peachment doctrine, and that the majority
OF the committee will report in favor of
that measure by which Radicalism intends
to oust the President and put BEN. WADE
in his place. We give it the full credit
usually given to sensation telegrams-that
is, we don't believe the tale.

Commenting the Chalice 10 Their
Own Lips.

In the House Of Representative In Con-
gress on the first day of the session, Mr..
BROOKS, of New York, commended to the
Radicals their own medicine, when he OBJ
jected to the oath being administered to
certain men, said to be elected in Tennes-
see as Representatives, because during the
war, they had given aid and comfort to
secession.
This move made the Radical majority
repudiate their past conduct. The lead
ers admitted their Radical members,
elected by negro votes to seats, without
question, although the evidence was strong
that they had preached treason and prac-
ticed it.

In some of the Eastern cities associations
entitled Midnight Missionaries" have been
formed. They go around the streets at
night gathering up the poor outcasts of
society. Common sense and charity are
displayed in such an undertaking. A few
earnest men engaged in any of the larger
cities would do better service to Gcd and
humanity than the entire army of enthu-
sasts who have devoted their lives to the
effort to make Christians out of the natives
of Africa and Polynesia. Even in this city
much good might be done by missionary
effort of this kind.

A Boston journal calls attention to the
fact that there is an emigration of Americans
20 Germany, as well as of Germans to this
country. 1t says this is owing to the increas-
ing cost of living in the United States, and
that persons of fixed moderate incomes have
discovered that living and education cost
far less in Germany than in American cities;
they are settling in many of the contininen-
tai towns. In Stuttgart the Americans out

An interesting question, arising out of
the emancipation amendment to the Con-
stitution, has been referred by Secretary
Seward to the Attorney General. Itseems
that recently British vessel brought three
colored sailors into Key West, whereupon
the local authorities indicted the captain
under the State laws prohibiting the impor-
tation of free negroes. The captain ap-
pealed to the British Charge d Affairs, who
laid the matter before Mr.. Seward, and the
latter referred it to Mr.. Stanbery.

UNPAID LETTERs.-We frequently publish
the list of letters detained in the Postoffice
in this city, on account OF non-payment of
postage, to the end that persons to whom
they are directed, or the writers, may see
the list and right the wrong by attaching
the stamp.
Pesons sending letters through the Post
Office, whether tor delivery in the city or
to be forwarded to any other place in the
United States, should remember that the
postage must be prepaid, and they should
see that the necessary stamps are on their
letters before they are mailed. Even those
accustomed to frequent letter writingshould
observe the caution, for they will be sur
prised to learn how manyletters are dropped
into the Postoffice without stamps. Such let
ters are not forwarded according to direc-
tion, but are sent the next day to the Dead
Letter Office, at Washington, instead of
going on their missions of business, or
pleasure or sorrow, or, perhaps, of life and
death, as intended by the writers.
The Postmaster, under the law, has no op-
tion, but must send such letters to the Dead
Letter Office; and the abused correspond
ents are of course not to be censured, for the
letters intended for them are in Washing
ton, and not where they were designed to
be; and all because letter writers persist in
sending letters to the Postoffice without
the necessary stamps. We trust this brief
notice will have the good effect of saving
the public some OF tie vexation and disap-
pointment resulting from the forgetfulness
or neglect referred to. Put postage stamps
on your letters.
