The Pittsburgh Side show.

From the World
Every circus is attended by what are
known az side shows. To the extreme
" juvenile or the fagrantly bucolic
mind these entertainments, which are
given under separate tents and to which
an additional price OF admission IL
charged, appear 10 be indenendeut Bnt
the wiser mind is well aware that it il
all one, and that as the expenditures
OF these subsidiary shows come out OF
the same pocket which pays for the
central spectacle, 80 the profits return
thither In like manner every Radical
Conventioa is surrounded and followed
by various smaller powwows, gathered
in the name Of war, or peace, or cold
water, or high tariff, or whatever ii
NAV be. One OF these is jus. now on
exhibition at PITTSBURGH. 1t is called
the Soldiers and Sailors Convention.

Accident Oh tho baltimore and Ohio
Railroad.

Yesterday morning about ) o'clock
the mail train eastward was following
a fact freight on the heavy upgrade
bevond Cranberry Summit, about sew
pntv-ffve miles west of Cumberland
When between Tuunelton and Rode
mer's Tunnel number Of freight cars
broke loose from the train and ran back
at HIGH rate OF speed, colliding with
the passenger train, which, fortunately,
was running very slow at the time,
The engine was damaged considerably,
the tender broken, the baggage car hal!
t,'escopad with the smoking car; the
next car was damaged slightly, and the
(rear) ladies car, which was the only
one that kept the track, was unframed.
Strange to record, in all this general
smash Int one persnn was seriously In
inred, Mr.. Ridenour, a brakeman on
the mail train, who had leg broken 10
two places between the knee and the
foot He was taken to Cranberry bv a
special car as soon as possible, where
he received medical attention. There
were two brakemen on the detached
cars, who, when they found they could
not stop them, jumped off before the
collision. Several persons on the pas
senger train were badly jolted, bnt had
no bones broken, serious cuts or bruises.
The freight cars were knocked oft the
track aud broken mp and their contents,
flour, scattered to the winds.
The wreck was cleared up by the
time the St Louis express came along,
and the passengers, mails &c, were
transferred 20 that train. The accident

Since the State election the Radicals
OF this District have been looking about
for a more available candidate than Mr..
Walker has proven himself to be, with
whom they contemplate defeating Mr..
Hereford, our present efficient repre-
sentative. To this end, such men as
Henry Fisher, Of Mason, and Judge
Ferguson, Of this county,|have- been
spoken of. and ,one Of them urged to
announce himself as an independent
candidate. 1t remains to be seen wheth-
err either Of them viii do 80. We think
Judge Ferguson will do no such thing.
As for Mr. Fisher,1we are no! prepared
to say. '.ra- -. ~
Far better would it be for the Radi-
calls to let Mr.. Walker again suffer de-
feat at the hands Of Mr.. Hereford than
to bring out a new one; tor it would
not be as bitter a pill to him. now that
he Is Convinced of, the TACT that he has
no hope o. an election, as it would he

place. o.. arg ' '" 20
Should either Of the above named
gentlemen, however, conclude to accept
the empty honor Of being an iodepen-
dent Radical candidate for Congress IN
this District, he will be as badly beaten
az Mr.. Walker was last month. o..
Mr. Hereford has given entire satis-
fiction to large majority Of his con
sti,ueats, and they will attend to the
matter, and send him back again az
their representative.

THE LEGISLs-UpE-A CORREC
TINN

In onr list of members eject to the
next legislature. published Yesterday
morning. the name OF A. j. PANNELL
should have appeared as one Of the
Senators from the First District instead
Of JoHN CUNNINGHAM. Mr.. PANEL,
it will he remembered, received nearly
one hundred more votes in the District
than Mr. CUNNINGHAM. He is clearly
entitled to HE seat in the Senate unless
prevented by that clause Of the Consti'
tuition which requires that both Sena'
tors shall not be chosen from the same
county. II Mr.. PANNELL is ineligible
BY reason OF bis residence in the same
county with Mr.. JACOB, which is a
question that the Senate will decide for
itself, it by no means follows that q
candidate receiving a minority Of the
votes cast should be declared elected
The more natural and just solution OF
the difficulty would be to decide the
election void as to the ineligible caudi-
date and order new election to be held
10 fill the vacancy thus created.
Two or three other corrections in the
list are suggested. FELIx PRUSTY, Of
Richie, and J. NJ THAYER, of Taylor,
marked as Republicans in the list
should have not been so designated.
This will reduce the number Of Repub-
licaus in the House of Delegates to l6,
all told. We are informed also that
MARSHAL TRlrLErr, of Webster, is
elected to represent the delegate dis
trict composed of Clay, Nicholas and

We have seen no better reply to the
charge that tho object of the great conven-
ton of veterans at Pittsburgh was to ire
kindle the hatred and animosity of civil
war;" than Gen. Hawley's speech as tenn

Hawley is thus reported:
ofall the charges that this combined op-
position makes against us, none so arous-
es our anger as the pretense that we were
or are actuated by spirit of hatred and

history not to surpass-that is not pretend

C.T.vDID.gTAS EOR CO.v'GRESS.

The New York Times, in an editorial
urging the duty OF selecting as Representa-
tives to Congress the very best men the
country affords, says:
During the next two years, the work of
Congress will require extraordinary quail
fications in its members. With the re-elec-
tion of Gen. Grant, the questions directly
involved in the reconstruction of the
Southern States will be practically with
drawn from the legislative field. The po-
litical and civil rights of all are clearly de-
fined by existing laws, and with the exc
cuton of those laws by wise, firm and
friendly hand assured for another four
years, the rights referred to may be regard
ed as established. The questions which
will take their place will be those of gener-
al administration, and while scarcely less
important than those arising out of recon-
struction, they will be even more compli-
Gated in detail and more delicate in their
relations to the prosperity of the country.
Included among these questions, and the
one of more radical Importance, will be
that of civil service reform in its widest
sense. The duty of the next four years
will be TO remove from our politics the
many and varied evils growing out of the
distribution of civil offices as rewards for
political services-a reform in which the
President has done so much that he deser-
yes the cordial support of Congress.
Another of the questions affecting the
material prosperity of the country, Will be
the adjustment of the revenue. The teach
ing of the last four years is conclusive that
our system of taxation will be the subject
of continual discussion and of probable
modification, until some of its more extra
ordinary features are gradually removed.
Still another question which must arise is
the relation of the General Government to
the gigantic corporations growing up in
our midst-corporatons whose extent, in
iuence, and power were never contempla-
ted by the authors of the Constitution, and
the development of which constantly pre-
sents new and important problems to the
National Legislature.
All these questions will require men OF
ability and probty to deal with them. IT
the Republican Party is TO retain the as
tendency ii now enjoys in Congress, it
must not only preserve the general high
standard of its present Representatives,
but it must increase the number of its ORR
gina and Influential men in Congress. On
the other hand, the next Administration
will afford splendid opportunities for indie
pendent men, representing Independent
consti uencies. The field is everywhere
inviting for the very best men of all par
ties and in the interest Of our common
country, without reference to mere party
advantage, we urge our citizens every
where to endeavor to secure this kind Of
men.
