HoRR1BLE Aoo1DENr.-We learned
from passenger per the Atlantic and
Gulf Railroad, on Saturday, ieays the
Savannah Ne,os, of Monday,) the parti.
culars of a terrible accident on, the Jack
sonville, Pensacola and Mobile Railroad,
about two and half miles from the for
mer city. The accident occurred on
Wednesday night, on the passage of the
outward bound train. The train ran
over white man named Johnston and
his little son, aged about ten or twelve
years. The man was horribly mangled,
his body being cut completely in two,
and one OF his arms torn from the shoul.
der. The little boys head and body
were badly crushed. It is supposed the
man was drunk, and having lain down
upon the track, had fallen asleep. From
| the position of the bodies, it is inferred
that the little fellow was endeavoring to
pull his father from the track, when the
train came along, and they were killed.

rable and revered couple, who have been
for many years residents of Howard
County, Mo-, may, if they see proper.
