A frightful railroad accident occurred on
the Mississippi Central railroad. on last
Sunday morning, seven miles south Of
Holly Springs. by which the fireman, Il
cOlOred man named Bryant. was killed,
and the engineer. William II. Miller. was
severely injured. The accident was caused
by the trestle work over IL creek being
washed away. The engineer saw his dan
ger, and whistled down the brakes. but too
late. The engine and tender plunged into
the gully, which was about eight feet deep.
The baggage car fell with crash on top
the tender, and the platforms of the first
passenger ear were smashed into splinters,
but the passenger cars, fortunately for the
inmates. remained on the track. and al

shaken by the conclusion. none were i'll

suffering little loss, and that covered by
insurance, This second great loss by fire,

the necessity Of adopting some more ell
