full force full in the face. Both were feed

where they were boarding, with party of friends,
and met others on the train. All going to Sar-
atoga where they proposed to pass few weeks.

B. EXAGGERATED RUMORs. .'-

serted that the accident rivaled that of the New

killed outright and large number
of others seriously wounded Those who
had friends on the train hurried
to the Grand Central Depot to ascertain if any def
mite intelligence had been received from the scene
Of the disaster and especially list of the killed
and wounded had been obtained. The officials en-
deavored to allay the excitement by assuring all
who called that killed, and that the re-
ports of the disaster had been much exaggerated.
George the colored porter of the drawing room
cars, was congratulatng himself last evening on
what he believed to be a most providential escape
from death He said he accustomed
as soon as he had got fairly out of
New-YOrk to 60 forward into the baggage car to
smoke cigar; but yesterday there was q very
troublesome family Of Spaniards. consisting
of eight persons on board, who wanted ice
cream, and kept him busy fetching it
until they had eaten 16 plates Of it.
As they were about finishing the last.
the shock came. 1t not severe, he said, with
self graduation. as to break the plates, was he
so excited to neglect to collect payment He felt
quite sure that but for the demand for icccream he
would have been in the baggage-car, and perhaps
would have been killed

ing through the cars collecting fares carrying

himself from falling, he lost his hold the bills

himself very fortunate, considering the position he
occupied, that he escaped with no heavier loss.
