THROUGH LINE.-The Bosten Herald says it
is intimated that the New York and New Eng
land Railroad Company, which succeeds to all
the rights and franchises of the Boston, Hart
ford and Erie Railroad Company, is largely
controlled in the interests of the Eastern Rail-
road. The President of the Eastern is one Of
the principal stockholders of the New York s.
New England road and was quite active in the
meeting Thursday. Other Eastern railroad
men are said to be holders of stock in the new
company So far as known at present, no def
mite plan has been laid out, but it is believed
that the Eastern Railroad officials are very
anxious to control through line from Port
land to New York, and the old Hartford and
Erie offers about the only feasible route.
The design of the New York and New Eng
land, and Eastern Railroads is to unite with
the Maine Central, European and North Amer
icanl and International roads, forming one
grand consolidated line from Halifax to New
York In such an event, Pullman steamship
train will be run daily for passengers to and
from Europe each way, These trains will be
equipped with slice ping, drawing-room and
kitchen cars, carrying passengers through with

PANAMA, April 5 via New York April, 90
Steamship Honduras arrived here on the 4th
inst. She brings details of terrible EARTH
quake at San Salvador. The first shocks were
felt on the 4th OF March, which destroyed some
houses and alarmed the inhabitants, the great
er part of whom took to living in squares aud
open places. The shocks continued with more
or less frequency and force till the 10Th, when
shock came which laid the whole city in
ruins. Every town and village within radius
of twenty miles have suffered more or less
fortunately. owing to previous shocks having
frightened the greater part of the population
from living in their houses, the loss of life has
not been so great as it otherwise would have
been. or a population of 10000 the number
reported killed and wounded varies from 30 to
600. The only buildings left standing, though

A REFUTATIoS.-An unusually large audi
ence was assembled ct Park street church yes
terday, many doubtless expecting in the SER
vices some reference to the recent excitement
in evangelical circles. Mr.. Buck remarked,
before beginning his sermon, that charge of
infldelity, ct cetera, had been publicly is
sued against himself, and indirectly against
this congregational charge which in itself was
scarcely worth attention, but which afforded
him one of those opportunities for which min
listers lie in wait,-to discuss a subject just
when, for any reason, however trivial, the at
tention of the congregation is especially drawn
to it. He would avail himself of the opportunity
thus afforded. and would present next Sunday
the general subject of Christianity and Infdel-
ity He then announced the sermon for the
day to be one of the course on which he was en-
gagged, and proceeded to speak of mans moral
weakness and strength, from the text, II can
do all things through Christ,who strengtheneth

AocrDENT-Mr. 7. T. Coombs, Grand Trunk
station agent at Locks Mills, met with a Sc
we're accident Thursday night. During the day
he had been visiting at New Gloucester. As
evening came on, he started for Danvillc juno
ton, taking his way over the Maine Central
track. He had been walking but short time
when he heard a whistle, and soon after the
rush OF an approaching train. Presuming that
the sounds proceeded from Grand Trunk
train on the track beside him, he continued his
walk. Presently the danger signal sounded,
but not in time for warning, as Mr.. Coombs
was caught by the cow-catcher of tue approach
ing locomotive and thrown into the air When
picked up by the train men, he was discovered
to have sustained an ugly wound in the back of
the head and bruise of the skull but no frac-
ture. Mr.. Coombs was brought to this city,
where he was examined by physicians who pro-
nounced his wounds not dangerous. His escape
from death or mutilation was a narrow one.

Ferry Village.

Saturday evening large and enthusiastic
temperance meeting convened at the school
house on School streat, under the auspices of
the Washingtonian Association. President
Dyer, on taking the chair. said he had kept his
pledge and would be most happy to hear the
same announcement from every member of the
association. Short and spicy speeches were
made by Messrs. Lowring, Paige, Green, Doug
lass, Dodge, Wiley and Others interspersed
with music. At late hour Rev. A. B. Free
man entered the hall. Loud and repeated calls
were made by the audience for brother Free
man, which drew FROM the reverend gentleman
one OF his best extemporaneous speeches which
was well received. Much credit is due Capt.
Dyer and others for bringing about this re-
formatory movement. Intemperauce in this
village is now the exception with those who
used to make it the rule. The bloody fights
and brawls that used to take place at the ferry
are now among the things of the past. A.

Another Version Of tho Case Of Phelps,
Dodge d Co.
WASHINGTON, April Ex-senator Boutwell,,
who was at the Treasury Department. to-day.
Phelps, Dodge & Co., that the sum of $271 900
was forced out of them by the way of comprom-
Use in their present difficulty with the depart
ment. He said that when the charges of
fraud were br.ught against that firm, they filed
a statement at the Treasury, asserting their in
nocense, and offering to pay $270, 900. Mr..
Boutwell,, then Secretary of the Treasury, de-
clined to receive the money and notified the
firm that the courts were open and if they
were innocent of the charges they should go in
to court and prove their innocence. Upon this
no ificaton they withdrew the assertion of
their innocence and it was then their offer to
compromise was entertained. The Department
in no case accepts money of any party charged
who claim to be innocent, being allowed by law
to compromise with offenders only after guilt is
admitted and it was on this distinct under
standing that a compromise with Phelps,
Dodge g. Co., was made. Never while Mr..
Boutwell, was at the head of the Treasury De-
partmOut was any compromise made with per-
sons who claimed to be innocent.
