Ano,her Dreadful Rnilrond Accident.
NEw' YORK, July l6.--There are a
few additional particulars OF the Erie
Railroad accident. Mr.. Gibson, a pas.
senger, says of the burning of the
smoking.car, that in it, wedged in q
Q by heaps Of broken timbers, sat
the Rev. Mr.. Halleck. He was per-
fectly uuhurt, but unable to extricate
himself from the wreck. In calm
accents, and perfectly collected tones,
be told us to get an x aud try to cut
inside the car. We searched around
and obtained one from II house by the
roadside, but it was too dull, and we
could do nothing with it. We worked
and stroye to liberate the unfortunate
gentleman, who sat there sound in
limb, awaiting the approach OF the
hungry flames | Nearer and nearer they
came, until his bair began to crisp and
burn, and his skin to crack We in like
manner found the heat uube"rable, and
retired, compelled TO leave this poor
gentleman, with eight feIl'w-sutferers,
to their terrible fate /! We moved until
all was over. Nine passengers were
| thus burned to death, and nine others
injured more or less severely.
Another passenger says 81 heard
little children screaming for their
mothers, passengers in the ruins calling
for Lelp and grooming with pain. Axes
were got, and one or two were actually
chopped M Of their imprisonment.
Most of the passengers in this car were
killed, and their bodies consumed or
injured. I should think there were l6
or II in the front end Of this car, and
think but two were taken out. don't
think there was a person killed by the
smash, but.all the deaths were caused
by the burning"
