WAsHINGToY. juno 25.-Letters received
to-day from Indiana give the most encourag-
ing accounts of the progress Of the Greeley and
Brown movement, and the utmost confidence
is expressed in its triumph at the October cleo
ton. Estimates of majority as high as fif-
teen thousand arc made for ex-senator Hend-
ricks, who is running for Governor. Even
Congressman Kerr, who has been hostile te
the Cincinnati ticket, writes that it is idle to
declaim against it in that State, and adds that
the delegation viii cast solid vote for Greeley
and Brown at Baltimore The entire delega-
ton have secured quarters at Barnum's Hotel
Advices received here from Ex-Governor
Curtin, now minister to Russia, indicate quite
clearly that he will return to the United State:
by the first of August, and will take the field
for the Cincinnati ticket. Judge Coffee, the

Adyices received here from Ohio state that
the Democratic State Convention will be
wholly in the interest of Greeley and Brown
and that such leading democrats as Hon. VIM
S. Groesbeck, Hon. Geo. II. Pendleton and Gen
Geo. w. Morgan will cordially support tho

A Fit Man.

We notice that the Spirit Of jefferson, OF
Charlestown, West Virginia, at the instance Of
many voters, has put forward DANIEL b. LU-
CAS-, Esq, as the choice Of the Democracy Of
the Eastern counties Of the State f1r the Forty
third Congress. We should think that the
nomination of Mr.. Lucas would meet with
very general approval. lie is lawyer Of I'M
questionable talent, vigorous writer and a
politician of clean and consistent record. Ills
speech at Harper's Ferry last summer was
manly and well-timei, and was well calcula-
ted to exert a salutary influence on the action
of the Constitutional Convention of West Nir-
ginia, which assembled soon afterwards in
helping to purge the organic law Of the State
of the abominatiors that had bceu fJisted into
it by the reconstructionists and carpct-baggers
We took occasion ut the time to comment edi-
te.ially on the admirable speech Of Mr Lucas
and 10 congratulate the people of West Virgin
ia on possessing man so well grounded in
correct principles and so capable Of express
ing them. Those principles are not Of ye,icr-
day, they ara his by Inheritance He is Of a
Democratic family, well known in the history
of that part of tie Old Dominion--his father
and two uncles in other, and We fear VIC must
add, better days, representing with marked
ability the same district in Congress.

Railroad Disasters.

4 NEST frightFul accident occurred on Sat-
urday morning, near Belleyile, on the Grand
Trunk Railway, to train going from Toronto
to Montreal. An axle Of the engine broke,
which caused it to be thrown from the track
The smoking and seccnd-class passenger cars
were telescoped by the baggage car forcing
them on the top Of the engine here the mis-
cradle occupants were hopelessly penned, ex-
posed to the escaping steam from the boiler,
and suffering all the agony of immersion into a
boiling cauldTon Of superhcated water. Twon-
ty-three were taken out dead, or died soon
after, and sixty-fve were more or less serious
ly injured. Physicians say that not more
than six or seven of the sixty-fye injured per
sons will live. The suffering Of the wounded
is frghtful. The killed and wounded are all
second-class passengers. The frst-class cs-

SERIOUS RAILROAD AcctDESr.-W learn
from the Cumberland Times that on last Thurs

dcrs of Martinsburg brakcsman on the Sec
Ond train, was knocked from the top of a
house car, as it passed under the Washington
street bridge, and was very seriously hurt, re-
ceiying two terrible gashes on the head, besides
several severe Commissions on other parts of the
body. 1t was at first supposed that he could
not survive, but upon surgical examination no
bones were found broken, aid with careful
nursing lie will probably recover. Mr S. was

Shoulder to Shoulder.

We like very much, says the Annapolis Re
publican, the way our astute and able friend,
the Baltimore Gazette, has been talking recent
~. There is ring of the true metal in
what it says, showing willingness to COM
promise, indicative Of approved liberality-
That journal, it viii be rccolected, like many
others, educated in the school of Democracy,
opposed either the endorsement or nomination
of Greeley by the Baltimore Convention
This it lid, very naturally, upon first impulse
the day following his acceptance as Liberal
Republican candidate by the Cincinnati Con-
yeniion. Since then, however, our Baltimore
neighbor has had time, not only for maturer
reflection, but to study public sentiment, and
thereby modify its extreme views
The Gazette is now willing 70 accept the sit
uatiOn aud work shoulder to shoulder as
as VIC have done and intend doing, upon the
purely Conservative Democratic doctrine OF
striving to DO that which will effect greatest
amount Of good to the greatest number. 1t
looks upon the approaching Presidential con-
test as a struggle Of the peoplein behalfo oul
country's good. The main object is to over
throw Radicalism as now existing, together
with the administration giving it encourage
mcnt Any compromise, therefore, of an hon
orablo character, looking towards that end
assented to by Democrats, Conservatives, Lib
cral Republicans and others either in national
counsel or by consent Of the people, must. be
approved lfit can he better and more sure
ly accomplished by adopting the Cincinnati
platform with Greeley and Brown as standard
bearers than by any other means-and We
think it can-thcn let there be concert of ac-
ton at Baltimore in July, as elsewhere, upon
this important matter. We will Join
shoulder to shoulder with our contemporary
of the Monumental metropolis, and all other.
in the following excellent advice which is ex.
tracted from its leading editorial column Of
Tuesday last
Whatever conclusions the National Demo
cratic Convention may arrive at in respect tC
Presidential candidates, it is all important
that in the coming struggle tho party shall
put forth its full strength. If a change o
Administration be desirable thiug-ant
what Democrat will doubt it-that chang,
can only be accomplished by unity of effort
In the face of such an adversary as we hay,
10 encounter, it would be the sheercst mid
summer madness to 80 into the contest witt
gaps in our ranks. We shall need every mal
we can muster. We shall need the mos
thorough organization, and we shall need
above all, the most perfect harmony and ac
cord and the most active and energetic exer
tons both individually and collectively.
"The issue at stake is the grandcst thai
