A PETRIFIED HUMAN BEING.
Ehe Cardla Glent Outdane

1le lnclnnaL Times sayS:-
A Mr.. Hollister, of Hamilton, gives us some
facts this morning concerning the petrlfaction
of the body of an old lady named Mrs. Nancy
Briggs, who died fifteen years ago. aged 76, and
was buried about two miles northwest of Somer-
vile, PTeble county, Ohio.
Three days ago her friends dug up the body
for the purpose of bringing it to Hamilton, and
placing il in their family lot in Greenwood
Cemetery at that place. The great weight of
the contents of the coffin induced the sexton to
open it, and all who witnessed the proceeding
were astonished on beholding that what was
once Mrs. Briggs in the flesh had been trans
formed almost entirely to solid stone, and now
weighed over 500 pounds, instead of $50 pounds,
her weight before she died.
In digging her first grave water was found,
and il had 10 be bailed out to receive her re-
mains The presence of the water containing
lime and other material is supposed to be the
cause of the petrifaetion.
During the two days the remains of Mrs
Briggs were kept in the receiving vault at
Hamilton they were visited by large number
of citizens of both sexes, who were amazed at
the curious phenomenon so rare of occurrence
in our soil and climate.

The Louisville COurier-Journal tells this
shocking story
Yesterday morning about 1 o'clock an old
gentleman who lives on Green street. near
Second, was awakened by the cries of a new
born child. The lower part of the house is
occupied by negroes, but, as there were no
children in the house, the cries excited the
curiosity of the old gentleman. He rose early
in the morning, aud upon going into the back
ing to the vault, and upon further investigation
heard the cries of child proceeding from the
pit Officer Bartholomew was called in, and
after some trouble the child was rescued from
the pit alive. The negroes in the house at first
denied all knowledge OF the affair, but finally
one of the women named Martha Washington
confessed that she had given birth to the chIld,
and had thrown 1t into the pit. DIR. G. B. Black
burn, who was called, stated that her condition
would not admit OF her being sent TO jail, and
she was sent to the city hospital.

lie WESTERN RAILWAY DISASTER.

Fticulars Of the Collision on the Ohio aud
HiissisSipDi Railroad.
he Missouri Republican of the 9th instant
the following:-
disastrous railroad collision occurred on the
o and Mississippi Railroad shortly after ~
Ock yesterday morning. The express train
winch left East st. Louis at 15 F. NJ. on Tues-
day collided with train of coal cars. The
collision took place at point four miles west
of Shoals, and about midway between st. Louis
and Cincinnati The coal train consisted of un-
loaded cars, and had been switched off the
track TO leave the latter clear for the express.
The blunder or criminal negligence of
leaving the switch open was, however,
committed, and the express, moving
at a speed of abOut fifteen miles an hour, ran
into the switch and into the coal train. Three
persons were killed and from twelve to fifteen
more or less injured. The express train con-
sisted of five cars; two of which were sleeping
cars, one smoking, and one ordinary passenger.
The engine of the coal train was pretty effectu-
ally demolished; the plates of the boiler were
torn apart and the steam escaping added to the
confusion of the terror-stricken passengers. The
force of the collision was somewhat weakened
by the coal train being driven forward, the cars
being empty, and the engine OF the express was
badly smashed, the tender forced into the bag
gage car, and the smoking and ordinary passen-
ger car telescoped for about one half the length
of the car; the floor and roof of the passenger
car were forced above those of the smoking car,
One poor woman and girl sitting in the pas
senger car were killed instantaneously by the
part of the body. The fireman of the passenger
engine, who was killed, is reported to be
Charles Fredericks. The bodies of the woman
and child killed were left at Shoals names yet
unknown, but believed not to be of St. Louis.
The express messenger is stated to have been
badly injured about the arms, and the baggage
master about the head. Persons in the sleeping
cars were not injured
Some persons who have come from the scene
of the wreck are in doubt whether all the pas
sengers were extricated from under the floor of
the car. The fireman, who was killed. had
scarcely any bruises on him. He was standing
ON the Goals of the tender when the collision
| took place. There is no switchman stationed
| at the side switch, and it was the duty of the
| switchman, who is also head brakeman of the
| coal train, to attend 10 the closing of it. The
engineer of the express escaped. On the disaster
| becoming known the officers of the road made
commendable eXertiOns to relieve the sufferers.
One of the incidents of the collision is that a
lady sitting on the same seat as one who was
killed escaped uninjured"

at the office of Messrs. Glendinning, Davis 81

were advised of the fact of transfer by tele-
graph, he would he limited, buy heavily of
them, and of course they would honor his checks
to the above amount. From some cause, Mr..
Glendinning instituted inquiries, and discovered
Field he pretended to be, and advised his New
York partners of the circumstance. On Friday,
the day of the Farragut obsequies a gentleman
called at the New York house of the Glendinnng
firm and presented a check for $40, 900 signed
Wilmerdings, Hoguet & Co. There were several
pronounced -, genuine by the cashier
of the Tenth National Bank, on
which it was drawn, and by Mr.. Hoguet, its
supposed signer. On closer examination it was
found to be rarely perfect forgery, and the
members of the firm in Philadelphia were noti-
matter and never appeared to claim the money,
and Mr.. John Elder, of the detective force of
this city, was set to work up the case. At ten
minutes before 12 o'clock last night Elder en-
tered the General Police Office with Joseph A.

a long and arduous search, and brought him to
