Years Railroad Accidents.

From a record of the railroad disas-
ters in the United States, dating 1tom
the haginning OF November, 1870, to the
end Of October, 1871, we CLEAN the fol
lowing facts. The report in question
is compiled simply from newspaper re-
cords of casualties by rail, and Is thus
only an approximation to the entire
truth. The whole table comprises re-
turns Of lO7 railroad accidents, the
greater portion of which were, rightly
speaking, not accidents at all. 1t
shows a total of 81 killed aud 254
wounded, as the result of collisions, To-
connective explosions, giving way
of bridges, and trains running off the
track. Were our railroads worked as
they oughtto be, it is perfectly obvious
that collisions at least ought TO rank as
impossible occurrences. OF this class
of accidents, there were 40 in all dur
ing tae period referred to, showing a
total Of los persons killed and 2l1
wounded. That is to say, two-thirds OF
the killed and nearly one-third of the
wounded were, beyond any doubt, VIC
TINS of the negligent or penurous man
agement of railroad corporations. The
foremost place IN the record of slaugh-
ter is occupied by the Revere disaster,
on Aug. 26; the New-H Hamburg tragedy
on Feb. 6, follows in the magnitude OF
its results; while the train thrown from
a bridge at Harper's River, Tennessee,
and the collision at Edwardsville, ILL.,,
take the third and fourth places.
These four events alone account for
seventv-nine dead and eighty-nine
wounded, while if the accident at Ban
COR. Me-, on Aug 8, be added to the
list, five disasters will be found to ac-
count for 81 killed and l4S wounded.

Messrs. Editors: An article in the Spy of

ply that, in my remarks to the board Of alder
men on Monday evening, | may have given Of
Tense to some members of the school committee;
but IS, if he will read carefully your report,
will see that could not have meant him, as
spoke of the educated portion Of that board;
these gentlemen, am sure, have too much good
sense and self-respect to have taken any offense
at my well meant, but perhaps too hasty
speech. Now that have referred TO the gentle

examinations" are the fashion, | will venture to
suggest to them that, if they will require, as
test of fitness for their service, the passing sue
cessrul examination in the simplest rules of
grammar and rhetoric, and perhaps some little
knowledge of good manners, the result will be
that they will be compelled to make such
change in their executive department as will re
move the chief obstacle to thorough and hearty
