A CHAPTER Of SERIOUS AccwEuTs IN Newark.

The past few days in Jersey have witnessed an ex-
traordnary run OF more or less serious accidents
Following hard on the railroad disaster near Pater-
son, whereby several lives were lost comes the ter
rb!e fate Of poor Andrew Baunlgartner, who fell
into an ore crushing hopper at Newark and for nearly
three hours mad crushing out his vitality over 500
horse power. He has since died. Again at Newark
yesterday In addition to the up at the Morris
and Essex depot comes list or casualties.
In the afternoon, about five o'clock, while bathing
In the Passaic near the Centre street bridge on the
Hudson county side, III company with other boys,
little fellow named Edward Cages OF Woou or
Lawrence street, got beyond hts depth and was
drowned. The body was recovered and taken
charge of by the Hudson county authorities.
Then again, In the afternoon, while driving a
butchers wagon through Greene street, which for
months past has been In the hands OF the sewer
builders, TO the disgust of people resident IN the
street, o man named Charles Openseer OF No 46
Greene street, lost control OF the horse which took
fright and dashed furiously against pile OF bricks
left there also for months as monument OF some
bojy's stubbornness and the city's negligence.
Charles was shot out and allghted on his head. He
was very seriously hurt about the head and shouI-
ders SO that Or Cutter had to be called to attend
him.
And Still another runaway accident Is recorded as
having occurred yesterday afternoon. A Mr.. MUIR
ply was driving along Railroad avenue, when the
horse took fright at the snortng or q locomotive and
became unnlanageabe. He was thrown out and
badly hurt, as were reported several children who
got III the way OF the tnfurlate horse.

The Advent of Nilsson to tho American

The Advent of Nilsson to tho American
A good many people in the theatrical line
have been trying to catch Mile. Nilsson-the
Swedish Nightingale number two"-for the
American operatic stage We have heard of
various attempts on the part Of ambitious
mpresarii to bring this beautiful Scandina-
vian warbler across the water Her splendid
reputation in Europe is certainly great in
ducement to keep her there, and we cannot be
surprised that it required a good deal of blan-
dishment and .Gnesse to secure such an engage
ment as Mr. Max Strakosch has perfected It
is officially announced by this indefatigable
purveyer Of artistic celebrities that Christine
Nilsson is TO appear in this city on the 10Th of
September next She could not appear in bet
ter time. 1t will be just at that opportune
season when the watering places are giving
up their crowds, half tired of the country
and longing for something new in city life.
The name of Christine Nilsson is now as
familiar to us as that Of Jenny Lind was before
she came among us. Perhaps her European
reputation, if not as widely diffused is quite as
well established as her Swedish sister of song
1t is said that Strakosch has agreed to pay
Mile Nilsson fifteen hundred dollars a night
for her services. This, in connection with the
expenses of the company to support the donna,
is bold venture. But the manager must RELY
upon the known liberality of our people to sus-
tain anything in the way of art which
approaches perfection. 1t is said further that
Mile. Nilsson has bound herself in for
feiture of fifty thousand dollars to carry
out her engagement in America This is
probably no more than the manager should
demand. But another curious incident in
regard to her engagement is the report that
the Emperor Napoleon has offered to pay this
forfeit if the Swedish diva will only consent to
remain in Paris. If there be any truth in this
we only hope that Strakosch will prove better
diplomatist than Napoleon and steal away the
beautiful cantatrice. We want to hear her on
our stage. She will find quite as critical an
audience here as in Europe, and, we think,
fully as cordial welcome.

era commences in human afYairs This era is

era commences in human affairs. This era Is
distinguished by free representative govern
ments, by entire religious liberty, by improved
systems of national intercourse, by newly
awakened and unconquerable spirit Of free
inquiry, and by a diffusion of knowledge
through the community such as has been be-
fore altogether unknown and nnheard." ''Let
us contemplate, then, this connection which
binds the prosperity of others to our own, and
let us manfully discharge all the duties which
it imposes. Auspicious omens, cheer US on
Great examples are before us. Our own
armament now shines brightly upon our path.
There is the keynote struck by master
hand. Such too, is the demand Of the hour.
We are strong enough, we have skill enough
to be no longer merely a heterogeneous mass
OF men subsisting by the good pleasure OF royal
councils and conclaves, but to become indeed
nation, standing upon platform of our own,
a broad rule of humanity, justice and freedom,
aud urging the law of right upon the world.
The events that are crowding upon us speak
trumpet-toned in this sense to all our public
men, and, if we mistake not, the Immediately
approaching future will cali to the front the
supporters and consign to oblivion the oppo-
nents Of a broad, generous, genial and un-
trammelled policy truly modern, truly liberal,
and, therefore, truly American.

ST. DoMNGo.-Every steamer arriving here
from st. Domingo brings additional intelligence
of the feelings of the Dominican people re-
garding annexation. They look forward with
anxious hopes to the action of the American
government in this matter. The length of
time which has elapsed since President Baez
declared that the Dominicans desired to be
admitted into the American Union has de-
veloped nothing that would lead us to the
belief that he either Intentionally or accidentally
misrepresented the feelings Of his countrymen
on this important matter. Cabral, it is true,
endeavors TO throw all the obstacles possible
in the way of the government, but his opposi-
ton really does not amount to much. The
present is the most opportune time for the
United States to acquire a foothold in the West
Indies, and we hope the government of this
country will recognize that fact. st. Domingo
should be American.

Dress Fashions in Europe.

The American beauties who graced the
Jerome Park race grounds with their presence
yesterday will be enabled to recuperate from the
aristocratic languor consequent on their exer-
ton by reading our special fashions corre-
spondence from Paris to-day. To-day! Why, it
is Sabbath, and the ladies must as matter of
course, and matter of necessity, as regards the
hereafter, attend church. They will duly re-
member, however, that the discipline of one of
the most ancient of the churches permits and
pronounces the oiatorilus hcisum est, or, in
other words, that it is lawful for travellers to do
many things and enjoy divers carnal consola-
tions which are not permitted to stay-at-home
people. Sir Walter SCOTS venerable abbott
availed himself, as the readers of the novel
are already aware, of this very convenient
dspensation clause of the canon which relates
to personal modification, after he had jour
neyed about a mile from the monastery, by
eating slice of venison steak on day of
''black fast" sit is lawful for travellers,
says the Church, ''to eat flesh for the nourish
ment Of the body" ct is lawful for travel
lers, and everybody else, says the HERALD,
to read our special letter on dress fashions, SO
that they may be enabled to adorn the person
with good taste, and thus promote the religion
of popular refinement.
Having thus pronounced the do 0e'oidnp, we
may say that our Paris special writer supplies
a very animated, sparkling aud encouraging
fashion exhibit. Art, poetry and song, roy
atty, alistocracy, valor, grace and beauty are
commingIed with much elegance in the commu-
nicatiou. We have tie psrplexities Of wonder
full underskirts, Of ribbons, Of rustic and other
hats, of promenade toilets, indoor robes and
new parasols. Laces, dress trimmings,
fiounces, jewels and costume ornaments flash,
as it were, before our eyes in @ mingled blaze
of color formed by the tints Of the Nile, the
Baltic, the Ophelia, the green and other
shades which are just now patronized at
the great continental centre and in Europe
generally. The reported engagement of
beautiful and accomplished American girl to
widow Of the famous French Marshal, looked
exceedingly pretty and very attractive when
engaged in admiring the portrait Of her
deceased soldier-h husband in the gallery of the
Fine Arts Exhibition, Paris. The Empress
Eugene was beautiful-almost as cver-as
she drove on the city promenade in
simple, elegant toilet, which is described but
her Majesty was radiant, almost ethereal, in
her presence and charity as she stole softly
from the Tuileries to sit by the bedside Of a
poor child which had been stricken by small
pox, and there minister to the ease and COM
fort of the infant sufferer Ladies' wells have
been worn affixed to the chignon, with orna-
mental daggers, and novelties in style, in dress
materials, in make up, in trimmings and even
in the put on" of the robes, prevailed on
every side, from the more humble rooms to
the most regal and aristocratic salons, all of
which is duly and specially reported in our
pages.

Congrcss-The Census, the QuaiSers and
the Internal Taxes.

the Internal Taxes.
The question OF increasing the compensa-
fion OF census takers came up in the Senate
yesterday, and it was stated in debate that
census operations had been suspended in some
parts Of the Union on account of the impossi-
bility of securing agents at the compensation
allowed. The census should be taken stimuli
taneously all over the country, and should,
moreover, be taken as rapidly as possible.
Therefore any interruption to the work is apt
to cause serious differences in the count, and
Congress should not allow any such Interrupt
ton through mistaken economy. Under the
present slow method of business in the two
houses the interruption may continue until
the time for taking the CENSUS expires before
the proposed increase of pay becomes estab-
lished by law. The proposition yesterday
caused considerable discussion, and went over
on the expiration of the morning hour. The
Indian Appropriation bill was then taken up,
and the Quaker policy was sharply dissected.
Some members conceded the peaceful system
of dealing with The Indians to be failure and
others opposed the appointment of Quakers as
Indian agents on the ground that it was dis
eliminating between religious sects. The
amendment, however, which was favorable
to the Quaker policy, was adopted
The House was simply uproarious yester-
day If Spotted Tail or Red Cloud had been
in the galleries-and it was doubtless through
a merciful interposition of Providence alone
that they were not-their savage blood would
have been reused to irresistible ardor by the
furious scene beneath them, and there might
have been some scalping done as well as
tongue lashing The Internal Tax bill was
under discussion, and Mr.. Schenck, on his own
responsibility, offered an amendment tacking
tariff provision to the bill. This was
vehemently objected to by the democrats and
anti-tarif men, and the trouble commenced
Dilaiory motions, flibustering expedients and
calls of the yeas and nays were resorted to
to gain time, and no compromise was offered
that could be acceptable to either party.
Honest John Covode commenced speech, in
which he heartily belabored his democratic
colleagues and several republican opponents,
thereby heartily amusing the democrats, who
were willing enough to gain time through his
verbosity, and for that purpose encouraged
him by cries of ''Ahab"-a somewhat mys-
terious but apparently cutting allusiou to bib
lical error which the Honest John made seve-
raj sessions ago. Mr.. Woodward was the only
democrat thoroughly nettled by Mr. Covode's
remarks, and he succeeded in making reply,
in which he intimated some extremely sharp
things in language only about half Parlia-
mentary. Finally, at five O'clock, the minority
having expressed savage determination to
keep it up all night, exhaustion got the better
OF the tariff men and an adjournment took
place, with no decisive action whatever on the
all important bill to reduce internal taxes, the
income tax included

The Eastern Questionable Reported
Russ0.Egyptiau Alliance.

The cable gives it as ''almost certain that
struggle against the Sublime Porte, and that
Russia will lend him her powerful assistance"
or course, if this be true, the end of the Sui
tan's dominion in Egypt is near; but then this
story comes from Paris, where it was first
heard at the Bourse. ''WaIl street" in Paris
like Wall street everywhere else, is ingenious
in the contrivance of reasons why speculative
values should 60 up on the one hand or down
on the other, and there is no reason more
potent than war in which any European
Power is compelled to spend money and ven
ture its credit in any degree. Thus the trouble
that suddenly becomes imminent may be only
fancy of the financiers. 1t is true, however,
that the fnanciers contrive these stories
shrewdly; and there is no story they could
invent more likely to be true than this. For
long while it has been scarcely secret--or, if
secret, certainly an ill kept one-that the
Viceroy is sparing no effort to organize an
effective fighting army, and it is well known
that he has Differed this army with some of
the men who were best tried in our own great
war. Neither has Russia ever yielded point
of her traditional policy ofpressure against the
Turk. For while, however, she has made
no very apparent demonstration against
that Power, but if she should suddenly join
hands with Egypt the doubt of the latter's
ability to contend successfully against the Sui
tan would pass away and the Ottoman empire
would be torn asunder. 1t does not appear
probable that the Western Powers would
undertake another Quixotic trip to the East for
the defence of balance of power that they
could not save. England has other ideas in her
head just now, and if France should move she
would perhaps presently come to know that
Russia had not begun this business without an
understanding at Berlin,

THE SPANISH PARLIAMENT has, as will be
seen from our cable kilograms from Madrid,
grappled with the throne question in an ami
mated debate. The candidates for the crown
are to be submitted to the rule of legislative
majority vote. The lucky man must have a
majority equal to one-half of the whole number
of Deputies in the Cortes. Montpensier is re-
garded as 'aoored" by this action. Who
comes next? He must be very popular and
have fair account at his bankers.
