PROBABLY NOT FATALLY INJURED, BUT WONDER
FUL ESCAPE
Among the passengers from Wilmington for
Philadelphia, to-day, by the l2'3O.P. NJ. train,
was Mr.. Carney, of the later city. He is inter
ested in the stone quarries at Quarryyille, on
the p, W Il d. Railroad, and as the train was
passing this point, he was standing upon the
rear platform, looking in the direction Of the
quarries.
In some manner. he knows not how, whether
his foot slipped, or he was struck by something,
he fell from the cars upon the track while the
train was moving at the rate of about 35 miles
per hour. He was, nevertheless, able to crawl
from the track. and the down express, being tel
egraphed, picked him up and.brought him to this
city, where he received medical attention at
the United States Hotel.
large confusion was raised on Mr, Carney i
forehead and he complains very much Of pain
at the top of the spinal column. He is be-
heved to have sustained no serious injury. Hir
escape is a most wonderful one.
Mr.. Carney, we understand, was formerly en-
gagged in business in this city.

RAILROAD TRAINS DELAYED,-The
unprecedented rains of the past few DAYS
have caused much irreguarity in the arri-
val and departure of railroad trains. The
mail train on the Richmond, Fredericks.
burg and Potomac road, due here at 4:4O
yesterday morning, did not arrive until 2
p. M, both mails coming in ON the same
train. This delay was caused by a land
slide at some point on the road. The mail
train on the Richmond and Danvile road,
due here at o'clock yesterday af.ernoo
did not arrive here until 8 O'Clock this
morning. The delay in this instance was
caused by the giving way of the trestle
work Of the bridge over Swift creek, be-
tween Tomahawk and Powhatan.

MeuSufeS 10 De AuODte0 by
the GOvernment-The McEnery Gov
eminent TO be DepOsed and Kellogg
Sustained as the Legal Governor.
NEW YORK. May PA Washington
dispatch to the New York Tribune SAYS
During the past few days member Of
the cabinet has said that the President has
become thoroughly in earnest in regard to
Louisiana affairs, and that the difficulties
In that state would speedily be brought to
close, and that he had returned with the
iull determination to take some decided
action. His adhesion to the Kellogg as.
sumption is more marked than ever, and
ne VIII 60 to any length of authority to
sustain 1t. On Saturday evening the Pres
ldent had long consultation with
General Sherman, Attorney-General Will
llams, and Secretary Robson, at which
the New Orleans trouble was thoroughly
discussed, and high-handed measures were
suggested, to which the President atten-
lively listened, and which will probably be
carried out before the close of the present
week. The administration is unable to
understand why Governor Kellogg does not
make requisition for federal troops, as it
Is claimed he has a perfect right to d. in
the absence of the state legislature, to
maintain the peace and assist the civil
authorities in administering the laws. 1t
is said that he is the proper judge to deter
mine whether there is a condition of socie-
ty requiring the interference of the army,
and that any aid he might require would be
promptly furnished. so far as the President
is concerned. 1t is not the Presidents in
tention to take any energetic action until
this requisition is made by Kellogg, and
it is hoped he will make the demand with.
out delay. AS soon as the requisition is
made the President will issue a proclama-
ton In the most positive language admon.
ishlng the citizens of Louisiana to peace,
deposing the McEnery government, pro-
claiming the Kellogg as the lawful govern
ment, and announcing the intention of the
executive to sustain the Kellogg govern
ment with the whole military force
OF the country if necessary. The
proclamation is to be accompanied by an
order to send all available troops to report
to General Emory at New Orleans. The
proclamation will be in such language that
it will be susceptible of no doubtful mean.
ing, and it will convey, as plain as words
can, the determination of the President as
above set forth. The action proposed, it is
said, meets the approval of the attorney
