Last evening collision took place on the
Boston & Maine between the regular passenger
train due at O'Clock and the engine Shawmut,
which was making up a train just this side of
the Maine Central crossing. The regular pas
senger train was on time, and having the track
was running in slowly. The light of the other
engine was seen but it was thought to be on a
side track until within few rods when both
engineers discovered that they we're on the
same track. The engines were reversed and
the engineers and fremen jumped off. The
engines came together with some force. The
passenger engine Strafford, No. IS, was injured
somewhat, thrown from the track, the baggage
car somewhat smashed and the others thor
oughly stirred up. The head light of the
freight engine was knocked off, and as the
steam was reversed the conclusion sent her
back with great force into freight train in the
rear, smashing through them at fearful rate
tearing off the smoke stack and wrecking near
Iy all of them about twenty in number
1t is asserted tt at the engineer of the freight
thought be could reach the side track before
the regular train wonld arrive, and the latter
being ON time, hence the accident The name
of the freight engineer is Alonzo Hunt, and to
him the blame is attached. H. G. Mills ran
the passenger train. Fortunately no one was
seriously hurt, though several were thrown
down in the passenger cars by the force of the
concussion

VOCAL MUsiC.-At last an opportunity
is offered the young people of our city to
acquaint themselves with the rudmcnts
of music. For years this branch of their
education has been left almost entirely to
travelling concert teachers, whose few
days drill have famiiariZed them with
special pieces and suggested possibilities
that cultured voices might achieve, but
they have gained no knowledge of the
fundamental principles. They have been
taught to be only imitators.
At the solicitation of the older mem
bers of the Baptist Sabbath School of our
city. Mr.. Arthur Baker, teacher of con
siderable experience, has organized a
class in fundamental Vocal Music, which
is open to all vino desire its benefits
The term will consis: OF twelve lessons
The tuition will be one dollar. Nccessa-
~ books will be furnished without addi-
tional expense. All persons interested
in the study of sacred and secular music
are invited to be present ut the opening
of the school in the Baptist Church. Sat

Home Correspondence.
FROM JESUP
JRsUP, Feb. 9th, 1871.

JRsUP, Feb. 9th, 1875.
Mr.. EDIroH:-No more Rip Van Win
kie sleeps for Jesup's illustrious writers;
not even the sunshine draws them from
their tables. Neither the moon, the sill.
very stars nor the jingling bells calls our
Enos or our Nasty from their comniun-
ion with the muses. But that you may
learn just how matters jog, we cast aside
rhetorical figures and bad spelling and
proceed Mercantile business is decided
ly dull. although some produce is brought
to market, yet not enough to create much
of a tumult in the houses of trade. We
live in the hopes of better timcs--somc-
where ahead. For several weeks moth.
ing has come into our midst to disturb
the equilibrium Of our people. unless it
be an occasional household broil OR "jaiF
alley. and these "tamily jars arc scarcely
known outside the gossiping circle, that
circle which gathers every evening at one
of the public corners, with the immortal
sachcm presiding, and there wrangle over
living and dead issues, besides issues
never known.
The liberality of our people toward di-
vine purposes was made manifest in the
sum of 1856 donated to Rev. Simons, on
Friday evening last. Such donations are
ever acceptable to ministers OF the gos
pei, since they are poorly paid when
paid the most, and often one-fourth q
years salary remaining unpaid.
The whiskcy revolution has not proven
so grand 4 success as was anticipated by
temperance men. The 5000 suit com
,popon1 l,v Niso Er1fnr1 orainst Tho
Druggist has evidently been frosted in
the bud This renowned Druggist WAS
arraigned before Justice Barnes short
time ago, the charge alleged being that
of keeping nuisance contrary to law "a
few of the ignorant wonder who or what
that thing is) This suit was immediate
ly carried up on writ of error. Since
this case, there has been nothing placed
upon the docket. 1: is reported that the
Druggist continues to deal out hi" smilcs"
"chimneys" and "biblcs" with just as
much freedom as in other days Not
only "Medicated Gin" but all those
liquors which the law strictly forbids may
be sold. Can this he; and why? Only
when one-half Of the citizens of our town,
or any town, unite in body to sympa-
thiZc with and console an illegitimatc
liquor seller, keep up his courage and
urge him to continue in the evil tenor of
his ways, and ever prepared to appear
upon the stand to impeach or sustain a
character, as it affects his interests, then
we say man can boldly defy the law,
and hurl the gage of defiance into the
very teeth of justice Just as true as
New York City ever had her whiskcy
ring, just so certain has Jcsup hers, and
on a grander scale in proportion to her
population. How long shall this he said?
How long shall the good people Of Jesup
tolerate such proceedings and such an
organization? NJ u L.

FROM NEBRAsKA.-Capt. l. M. Miller
handed us letter the other day from
Reidsvillc, L'Eau Qui Court County, Nc
braska, in the vicinity of which are the
lands recently located by him for soldiers
in this county. Judging from the state
mcnts therein, the locality, contrary to
what one would naturally suppose, has
been favored by comparatively mild
winter. Not more than four inches of
snow has fallen, and the thermometer in
the coolest weather has not showed over
23 . of cold. Wheat is IS cents, Oats
25 cents, Potatoes 35 and 40 cents, Pork
is S. and Flour 1926. Boring for coal
is progressing and oil has been found
A grist mill is being built at the Bruce

SLANDER--We hear that our worthy
Mayor, W. A. Jones, who is also "A dealer
in swine and cattle, has commenced suit
against three competitors in business,
Messrs. Gillctt, Elliott and Conable, for
SANDER in alleging that he cheats his Gus
toners by short weights. The damages
claimed in each case is $4,000. Per con-
ira, another party has commenced suit
against Jones for the same Offensc, laying
his damages at $4,000. So if all the
parties are successful, Jones will be "in"
$1,000. This is not pleasant among
friends and neighbors, but how fortunate
it is that none of the parties arc running
for Congress or the Legislature, or some
