Though the accident is one deeply to
be deplored, yet We think all on board
the train have cause Of congratulation
that 50 few were injured, and should re-
cogniZe in this the watchful care Of One
who overloOks al things and restrains
the onslaught of death itself
This is the first accident of such mag
nitude that has occurred for long term
Of years on this road, il indeed such has
ever been the case, and We hope we
shall not again be called on to record
another.

$50 a.m.-At this hour quiet appears
to have been completely restored. The
! crowds have dispersed from the streets,
and the colored men have left their
armory and gone to their homes. The
streets in the vicinity Of the riot are en-
tirely deserted, with the exception Of a
few police. A large force Of police is
understood TO be in the vicinity, ready
for an emergency, but matters look now
as if no further trouble would occur to-
night

is quite graphic. The thunder Jared him
at every peal, and the lightnings leaped
around him like fiery GemOns. Another
gentleman, who had just returned from
town, hardly had time TO unhitch his
horse from the buggy when it was lifted
over a ten-rail fence and blown into a
large pond Of water that had swollen
very much by the rain. Since then the
owner has used a canoe and been fish

was submerged beneath the water. Ste

EXTENT OF THE DAMAGE.

The track was torn up short distance
beyond the bridge, but the damage in
this respect il not great and will be re-
paired to-day, workmen being busily
engaged in clearing away the wreck
when the train LEFT. Passengers and
baggage will be transferred at the break
this morning, making connections, and
il is 10 be hoped that even this deten-
ton will be avoided with the next

The train left the scene of accident
about six o'clock. Mrs. Smithson, who
is thought to be fatally injured, and the
colored brakeman, James HeiskeH,
were taken to Greeneville. His injuries
are mortal, and he was not expected to
live till morning.
Colonel John Pride and daughter were
brought 10 Morristown and conveyed 10
the residence Of his son-in-law, while all
the other passengers arrived in this city
on the train at midnight, portion OF
whom took quarters at the Atkin House
while others continued their journey
hOmeward.

From the Knoxville Chronicle Of Sun
day We extract the following correct
statement of the accident, as gathered
from the railroad officials present and
passengers on the train. Captain Thom-
as HOlloway's train left Bristol on time,
but when it reached Greeneyille was an
hour and sixteen minutes behind, owing
10 an accident to the engine Of the up
train. The train was composed OF the
locomotive, two baggage and one express
car, the smoking car, three passenger
coaches and Pullman sleeper, and was
crowded with passengers; business men
returning from the purchase Of goods in
the North, and persons who had been
spending the summer at the Virginia
spring, en- route for their SOUTH
ern homes. The passengers had had
their breakfast, and as the train
travelled along were gaily chatting,
al unconscious Of the dreadful scene
that was soon TO be enacted, and in
which so many Of them were to be the
victims OF fell destiny. The train
dashed on, past fields Of ripening corn,
around rugged mountains, through fer
tile valleys, slumbering in the soft light
Of an October sUn-while the fated
travellers, dreaming Of home, children,
and life and love, were, even while all
nature seemed in peaceful repose, being
trailed by the demon Of the rail.

Tennessee Liberals in Council.

The Tennessee Liberal Republican EX-
ecutive Committee has issued an address,
calling a Convention to meet i'll Nash
Vile on the 2Oth of this month, for the
purpose of putting full electoral ticket
in the field. The Union and 4mCricdT
speaks of a meeting, which is perhaps the
same that got up the address, as follows:
We learn that there was political gath
ering at Col. Colyar's yesterday evening for
the purpose of taking into consideration the
state of the nation and the political situa-
ton generally; at which Col. Colyar, Gov.
Foote, Mr.. Roberts, of the Banner; Col
Paramore, of the Tennessee and Pacific
Railroad to Lebanon; Gen. Thruston
Mr.. Ruhm, and several others, lately
from Cincinnati and mostly dissatisfied
Adams men, were present. The main
point of discussion as we understand it
| not having been invited we cannot be eX-
pected to give perfectly correct report
but the main question of discussion as we
understand it, was, "What is best to be
| done?" or ds Bulwer would perhaps say,
if he were writing a work on the subject,
| "What will he do with it?r ~ ..sL
| We learn the conclusion was that it was
necessary, in order to save the Union and
bring the prominent actors in the grand
drama prominently before the foot lights,
to hold a ratification, certainly not graft

What the World Says.

| AS the smoke clears, created by the eX-
posion of the Greeley bomb-shell, which
exploded in the Democratic camps, men
lrcome more composed and talk of the
nominations in cool, collected manner.
| The New York World, the most power
FL and influential of all the Democratic
dgans, at once declared it's conviction as
II the necessity of straight Democratic
ttket. 1t sticks to them. In late issue
d that journal we find its leader devoted
II the "Oddity of the political Situation" :"
The burden of the editorial is, Greeley's
popularity is such as to split the Republi-
can party in the middle" in which case
tie Democratic ticket will prove triumph
ant. 1t adds:
Whatever else the Cincinnati Conven-
tiOn may have done or failed to do, it has
ut least cleared itself of all Differences for
Democratic wishes, and suspicion of court
ing Democratic support If it had nOmi-
Dtted Mr.. Adams or Judge Davis, it would
have left the Endorsement of its ticket by
the Democratic National Convention an
open question, with strong probability
that the public sentiment Of the party
would favor combination. But, in point
of fact, the Cincinnati Convention has ut
terly ignored the Democratic party,
treating it rs if were of 10 account
and not worth considering. If it had de-
Hberately aimed to give the Democratic
party dose it would not swallow, the Gin
cinnati Convention could not with per-
haps the single exception of Charles Sum-
ner) have presented name taken from
men still in active public life which SO
completely presents tenacious opposition to
theDemocratic party, Its ideas Its policy and
its views of the philosophy OF Govern
ment. The Democratic party might have
accepted Adams, it might have accepted
Trumbull, might have accepted Davis,
might have accepted Brown, might have
accepted Palmer; but it never contem-
plated as possible the nomination of Mr..
Greeley, its vehement, lifelong as
sailant; and had Democrats fore
seen such a nomination, they
would never have held out the least hope
of "a Democratic adoption of the Cincin-
natl ticket There is no way by which
the Cincinnati Convention could have so
completely exploded every suspicion of
Democratic influence, as by the non1ina-
ton of Horace Greeley. He, above all
others. is the candidate the Democratic
party did not want, and whose possible Sc
lection never entered into its calculations
when it was disposed to look with favor
on the Cincinnati movement.

The Farmers, Contention.

EDITORS CHRONICLE: 1 enclose you
for publication letter just received from a
gentleman in Virginia. I do so to show
the interest people at a distance take in
our Farmers Convention on the 10th, and
two succeedings days, if necessary. Ifear
our own farmers are asleep. The lecture
of Prof. Atwater alone, to say nothing of
many others, will be worth the trip to
Knoxville from any part of East Tennes--
see. he Will lecture on the influence OF
!ne dlnerent crops on our soils, and Will
Illustrate how each crop affects the soil by
carefully prepared diagrams by the first
chemists of Germany. No farmer should
ton.
Let our farmers arouse themselves.
They are asleep, l fear. Two of the hest
and largest farmers in East Tennessee, a
few days ago, were astonished to learn
from me that farmers convention had
been called, though the call had then been
out two weeks.
Let me again call on the farmers to ap-
point delegates, or come without appoint
ment. We are to have something new.
