ACCIDENT ON THE NORTHWESTERN
RoAD.-Day before yesterday an engine
while crossing the t~restles near Bridge
port, on the Northwestern Road, broke
the timbers, and the engine, tender and
six fat cars went down into the creek.
Fortunately there was no one injured.
Twenty minutes after the bridge gave
way the mail train came rushing along
on speed, and had the freight train
passed over the trestling in safety this
train would undoubtedly have been
plunged into the guilt, involving the
loss of life and limb to a crowd of pas
engers Thus does the sword of Dam
ocles hang suspended over us by q hair,
and thus do circumstances which APP
peal to be trivial, control not only our
fortunes but our lives.
p. S.-We learned late last night that
the damage to the bridge had been re-
paired, and that trains were crossing
the road as usual.

says he has nc objection to lie arning the

.preciate the idea of a nan stealing his

Furthermore he don't think thanks

THE CAPITAL QUEsTIoN.-In the Leg
islature yesterday the question of per-
manently locating She Capital of the
State was Settled" After two hours
voting and discussing in the House,
the bill was indefinitely postponed.
In the Senate the blank was filled
with "Flatwoods, Braxton county," and
so worded the bill was ordered to its
next stage. We take it that the move
ment is at an end for this winter, When
the Senate bill goes to the House it
will share the same fate as did the
House bill yesterday.

A CONFESSIONAL few weeks ago we
published an account of an attempted
outbreak at the county Jail, and stateo
that q convict named Williams, from
Martinsburg, Jefferson county, was un-
doubtedly the leader of the mutiny.
Williams, like other representatives OF
Martinsburg who are at present in this
city, is great rascal and an unprinci-
pied rogue. He took advantage OF kind
treatment extended him, and raised the
mutiny. He says that before he
reached Wheeling, he heard that
a new Tailor had taken charge
of the prison in this city, n
as he thought said official would not be
as careful and vigilant as an old hand
at the business, he decided to plan an
outbreak. He communicated his plans
to other prisoners, and soon every ar
rangemcnt was made for a general stam-
pcde. A lot of bricks were piled up in
the hall of the Jail during the afternoon,
by the men, while they were out of their
cells Exercising" 1t vas agreed that
all the prisoners were to get into
the two cells nearest the door, and that,
when the Tailor came in to lock them
up for the night, a rush was to be made
for elderly or death" Everything was
in readiness for the escape, when the
Tailor opened the door leading into the
Jail, but, unfortunately for the success
of the plot, the Jailor's assistant en-
tered the hall and the JailOr remained
at the door. The prisoners made des-
perate attack and for q few moments
bricks flew in all directions. The
Jailor let his assistant ont of the hall,
and a shot from his revolver soon quiet
ed the malcontents. Williams was
hand-cuffed and placed in cold cell for
the night. He now says that he has
every confidence in Jailor Faris, and
is sure he can ''keep hotel" When in
formed that Mr.. Farris could get up a
tomb stone in the best style of the art,
Williams said he did not doubt it, as he
had every reason to expect such things
from a man who could resist such a
charge and defeat such a well-laid
scheme as he had planned for the out
break.

A New TEN CENT Con- WANTED
We think the time has arrived
when the government might, pro-
fitably to the Treasury and the
country, put into the small currency
o new ten cent coin of nickel or copper.
We are not yet near enough the specie
standard to bring out the silver dime;
but q new coin of the same legal value
of inferior metals would answer for the
present just as we'll, and, in relieving
us of those little dirty bits Of paper be-
low the denomination Of % cents
would be an improvement in the way Of
of small change. The coin, in being
made fatter and broader than our clum-
sy nickels of The one, two and five cent
denominations, would afford q margin
for q little more ornament. In fact the
new nickel three cent piece is about the
only decent coin, as q work of art, that
we have, nickel, copper silver and gold
included. In all of them the designers
would do we'll to study the superior
delicacy and finish of the work upon the
coins of England and France. In our
coins, As in our postage stamps, there is
the same in f~eriority in this comparison,
and there is no excuse for it.
