Full particulars are received of the fright
full catastrophe on the Mississippi and Ten
nessee r. r. The accident was caused by
the breaking Of an axle of one of the passen-
ger cars. This car was overturned by the
shock and caught fire from the stove Seven
persons were burned to death, one woman
being literally .ammed head foremost into
the stove and reduced to cinder. The ter
ror of the unfortunate negroes who occupied
the car was understandable. 'Packed upon

crushed one another; children were sutfocat-

horrible deaths.''

The message of Gen. GRANT recommend
ing the addition of $500 to the salary d
our Minister to Berlin was 'laughed at, ,
as it deserved to be, yet that message was
most economical measure if it accom-
plishes what it was intended for--i. e., to
win the German vote for Gen. GRANT, and
to checkmate CARL ScHURz, who is sup.
posed to foster intentions averse to the
General. The "soft sodder' so literally
spread in the message for the Germans was
intended for this purpose. Gen. GRANT car.
Fied this to the extreme of INDUCING some
political philosophy, of which he knows no
more than horse. He felicitates the Ger.
mansin his message, and declares that Gen.
traIization tends to the establishment Of the
viii sand power of the people," The
astute judge Of horses and cigars made a
wide mistake here. Had he said "power of
the Government instead of the ''people,"
he would have been exactly correct. But
this sort of accuracy was not at all essential
to the objects ola man occupying the presi-
DENTAL seat who >besitates not to make his
official communications with Congress the
media of electioneering and tampering with
the prejudices and passions of classes of the
people.
