SINGULAR ACcIDENT.-Major George
McKendree, of Lewisburg, civil engi=
neer on the Chesapeake q Ohio Rail
road. met with a fearful accident, 4at
the White Sulphur Springs, on Tues
day night last, by falling from a vim
dow in the third story of the Hotel
building, to the brick pavement below,
distance Of about forty feet. The ac :
cident occurred between twelve and
one O'Clock. The Major says that he
remembers retiring to his room and di-
yesting himself of his coat and vest;
that afterwards he rested upon his bed
and fell asleep; that he recollects moth:
ing more until he was falling, when his
body struck, against the stoop on the
wall. After that he was unconscious.
He was found q short time afterwards,
and medical aid was soon obtained:
Strange to say, not bone was broken!
His snfferings were, necessarily, very
great, and but slight hopes were, at
first entertained OF his recovery: we
learn that ON Wednesday and Thurs
day nights he rested well, and hopes
are entertained that he may ultimately
recover Independent.

BILLIoNs.-In answer to correspon-
dent, the Philadelphia Ledger: states
that according to the English system of
notation, a "billion" is one million
millions, that is, as many millions as
there are units in million. According
to the French system, a billion is one
Thousand millions. Hence, as we in
the United States may be considered as
reckoning by the English system, 1t
NAV be safely asserted that our national
debit has not reached billions.

: Lively Times in England.

The news from England this morn.
ing ia OF very great interest. There is
a dead lock between the Commons and
Lords on the Irish Church question, no
hope OF concessions on either side, and
great and growing popular excitement.
There is an irrepressible conflict in
England as there once was here. The
common people there are struggling up
to the leyel of popular liberty which
the masses enjoy here, and the real con-
test there is between Republicanism
and aristocracy. The Church question
is only the occasion that developes and
rlpens it and hastens the inevitable cri-
sis and the equally inevitable solution.
The common people of England have
had 30 much liberty that they must
have more. They are growing more
and more restless under the restraints
and exactions OF the nobility; and 1t
looks as If they had made up their
minds either to have all the privileges
of freemen or much less than they have
now. The revolution there Is too tar
along to go backward. It has been
peaceful so lar, but England is full OF
the elements for a first class explosion;
and II one comes, it will be strange If
the peerage are not blown out of water.

On D1r.-W We find the following in
teresting item in last evenings CiHctrs.
natl Gazette:
A rumor is current, and some who
profess to be knowing, say 1t Is well
founded, that a ready writer of this
State, whose name is pretty familiar to
newspaper readers, backed by an Eas-
tern capitalist who has achieved sud-
den political notoriety, is soon to re-
vive and start upon new career the
old National InteILiqe1lceT of Washing
ton. The InteLLigcncer WAS formerly
known as the organ of Presidents. II
tho present rumor proves correct it will
doubtless become the organ OF an aspt-
rant to the Presidency.
No names are mentioned here, but we
understand this TO mean that Mr.. SEN
ator Sprague is to revive our ancient
namesake, Col. Don Piatt, of Ohio is to
edit it, and Chief Justice Chase Is the
Presidential aspirant in whose interest
this is all to be done.
