A CoLLIsIos Of freight trains took place on
the Franklin Branch railroad, near Hadley
station, on Friday morning of last week,
which resulted in the precipitating of one ol
the locomotives down an enIbankment, the
wrecking and burning of some dozen oil tank
cars, together with bridge, and the severe
injury of an employee of one OF the trains.
We had supposed that crude oil within these
sheetiron tanks, was safe against ordinary
mishaps but the way these came out Of their
fiery trial shvered and torn, is evidence that
the tanks are not proof against fire. The de-
bris cane up from the scene of disaster on
Sunday last, and presented a sorry mass.

SPIRIT OF THE AGE
Thursday Oct. 80, 1873.
Caution.

We were surprised the other day
to hear the opinions of leading
Democrat, in another State, in favor of
abandoning the Democratic party, in
order to succeed. Let us see what
our experience has been. Last year
we went to the utmost verge possible,
and maintain the party. The leading
men, and the best men of the
party, made the necessary concessions
and acted as prudently as possible to
accomplish the end sought,-to get,
rid of the present corrupt Administra-
ton and the party, since it has been
out of power, has received no such
stunning, and damaging defeat.
This year, where we have achieved
some glorious and almost unexpected
party victories, it has been done by
appealing to the people to sustain the
Old Democratic Party, and Demo-
cratic principles. Thousands Of
men who would not vote the ticket
of lastyear in the State of Ohio
helped to elect Allen and Thurman
this. About the Democratic Party
there are prejudices, but there are also
memories and cnthusiosms. The party
in the past has been a party Of prin-
ciples. 1t went down for its ad
hesion to the Constitution and its SUP
port of the rights of all sections. Let
lis keep it Il party ofprinciples instead
of an association Of persons TO get and
keep office, fit becomes the latter,
like the Republican party, it will come
to be managed by men greedy for Of
flee, not for the honor of the office,
but because it furnishes opportunities
to be bribed and to steal.
Then again, this getting political
victories by abandoning principles, is
a good deal like getting rich by
abandoning hard labor. We may
figure it out, but do we generally sue
coed ? No. Then let us do right
stick to our party and our principles,
and trust the result to God

Ex-President IOhnsOn's Speech.

Elk President Andrew Johnson, be-
ing in the city Of Washington ON
business, was on Thursday evening of
last week, serenaded, at the Matropoli-
ton Hotel. After which he made a
characteristic speech in which he adj
vanced many good ideas in regard to
the principles of government and the
way in which it should be administer
ed for the benefit of the people and
country. Mr. Johnson also spoke of
the corrupt and unconstitutional man
agement of the present administration
of Grant q Co. Had we spare room
we would give our readers extensive
extracts from the speech.

The Kellogg Legislature.

Around the corner, on Dryades
street, when the Legislature is in SEES
sion, you may see the law-making body
which is upheld by the executive de-
partment of the United States.-
Around the doorway of the Mechanics
Institute one or two negro policemen,
armed with clubs and reyolvers, are
standing; mounting Il staircase cover
ed with old and tobacco-stained mat
ting, you may enter long hall car,
peted with dirtier mating; and there,
at clumsy desks, sit the law makers, -
a heterogeneous mass otncgroes stand
ing outside the ratings, and listening
with open mouths to Tie eloquence of
their fellows, who have been dignitied
with office. Nearly all the honorable
representatives are black and their
opposition is instant and determined
to anything which is likely to better
the present horrible condition Of white
society in Louisiana. III the Senate
chamber the same scene is repeated E;
if II colOred man is in the chair, he is
constantly falling into the proloundest
errors with regard to his ''rulings'
and "decisions,' and finds it extremely
difficult to follow any bill thc moment
it becomes the subject Of dispute; and
there is always the black man who is
pprpaiually hopping up to say, No,
sir; no, sir; | object to that sir !"
and the lean white man. dressed lnthp
extraordinarily new clothes, and with
a general mushroom aspect about him,
who smiles withering smiles of con
tempt on the striving negroes, as he
cndeavors, from carpet bag point of
view, to show them where they are
in error. The scene would be luli-
crous were it not so saddening; had
it not already been enacted for five
weary years, while the State has mean
time gone nearer and nearer the verge
Of ruin, deeper and deeper into the
abyss Of crushing taxation. Even the
Governor, who has to do with this
Legislature, must now and then wish
that he had better material to work

Political.

The First Assembly District
Democratic Convention, of Oneida
county, N. Y, nominated Hon. Hora-
ito Seymour as its candidate, on Satur-
day.
"A Texas letter says that the sue
cess of Coke, the Democratic candi-
date for Governor, is beyond question.
Texas is looking up.
Col. Charles G. Greene, editor of
the Boston Post, has also declined the
Democratic nomination for Represen-
tative to Congress, from the Third
District in Massachusetts, to fill the
vacancy therein caused by the death
of the Hon. VIM. Whiting Repuhli-
can) deceased. All this trouble comes
of the miserable attempt to force the
nomination of Mayor Pierce, Repub-
lican, upon the late Democratic Con
vention of that District.
Elections are to be held on Tues
day next, Nov. 4th, in the following
States: Massachusetts, New York,
New Jersey, Illinois, Michigan, Kan
sas, Maryland minnesota, *Wiscon-
sin, *Virginia, mississippi and Arkan-
sas.
The States above that are to elect
a Governor are designated by Star
THUS
The Missouri papers say that ex-
Gov, B. Gratz Brown intends run
ming as a candidate for the Legisla-
tire, at the next election.
Mr. Brown wants to be the sue
cessor of Carl Schurz in the United
States Senate, whose term expires
March Sd, 1875.
-Ot the result of the late Pepn-
sylvania election the vote shows large
Democratic gains nearly every where
in the State except in Philadelphia.
Which would also be the case in that
city, if it were not managed in the
interests ola ''ring" of rascals imam,
GUS beyond example.
ANOTHER DEMOCRATIC Victory
The city election in Baltimore, Mary
land, on Wednesday last, resulted in
the choice of Joshua Van SAINT Demo
crat for Mayor, Carson (Republican)
receiving l,734 out of 32,949 votes.
All the members of the Councils elect
ed but one are Democratic George
w. Brown was elected Chief Justice
without opposition.
The majority given for "License"
at the recent election in PENNSYLVANIA,
is 32, 494. The result of this vote
was rather indistinctly given in our
last issue so we repeat.
In the sixth Congressional Dis
trict New York, the Liberal Republi-
cans have endorsed the Democratic
nomination of the Hon. S. S. Cox, for
Congress, to fill the vacancy caused
by the death of James Brooks.

It's Significance.

The Boston Post, thus explains the
true meaning Of the late Republican
defect in Ohio. Many rather import
ant "things" are brought to light by
this exposure.
The signal defeat Of the Admins
tration in Ohio is made more notable
by the fact that the Senatorial aspira-
tons of favored member OF the Ca
binet are lhwarted by the choice of a
Democratic Legislature. Mr.. Delano
pnrpoSed stepping from the Interior
Department to the United States SEN
ate over the head of Mr.. Thurman,
and the President has not withheld
his hand in helping him to the leap.
He was the choice of the Administra-
ton, and he had its countenance and
its active assistance. The business of
the Department has been allowed to
take care Of itself, while the Secretary
has busted himself about the country
and joined personally in the manage
ment of the canvass in Ohio for his in
divldual interest The Administra-
ton thrust the Federal paw openly in
to the campaign, and the official ma
chinery was all set in motion for the
same end Even Postmaster Filley,
as far distant as st. Louis. claimed the
demands Of the Government in Ohio
as excuse for his assessment of clerks !;
while Morton was called in from In
diana, and the President himself did
what he could personally by producing
that remarkable financial statement on
the eve of the election. But with all
the Administration appliances in use,
the Presidents favorite has found an
Gnominious failure AS if to render
his defeat more marked, it is even
alleged by Republican journals that
his candidacy assured Mr.. Humans
success. However that may be, the
fact that the people of Ohio have re-
pulsed the Administration at every
point, and especially by thwarting
Secretary Delanos ambition, is su1ic
iently evident.

is true, as is intimated by the New
Orleans Herald, that part of the funds
stolen from the New Orleans Post
Office was used to carry elections for
Grant last fall. 1t will be remember,
ed that in the case of the delinquent
Pittsburgh Postmaster the friends Of
the defaulter asserted that much ofthe
money Incorporated by him was
used for political purposes, all of
which is interesting in view ofPresi-

Extensive and destructive prairie
fires have recently occurred in Min
nesota and Iowa. In the former State
the heaviest losses took place. In
Martin county, houses, barns, stables,
grain, hay and trees were alike con-
sumed in the track of the fire. The
village of Jackson, Mimi, had mar
row escape from the fire, as the flames
stopped only within a short distance
Of the place, ravine checking its
further progress.

The Chicago Times summarizes
the present condition of business in
that city as follows: The mercantile
trade is found to be generally better
than it was a year ago, while the
stock-yards and Board of Trade find
themselves in rather bad way The
manufacturing interests Of the city
continue to withstand the financial
stringency. The railroads report an
increase in the carrying trade, but
Lake traffic has nearly come to a stand
still. The city, nevertheless, is thought
to be generally prosperous.

In Louisiana, where the brother.
in-law form of government is in force
to the fullest extent, the results are
anything but satisfactory. Leaving
out of question the method introduced
there. by special request of the Presi-

legal State Government by United
States troops, it appears that defaulters
to the Federal Governmrnt, where
they also are friends of the brother in

Inconvenience sometimes following
such irregularities in other States.
For instance, we learn from New

Postmaster Lowell, whose accounts

people, being engaged to represent the

A gossiping Washington letter
says that Senator Boutwell, has taken
a house there. This he never did be-
fore, though for ten years his family
have occupied an important position.
The house is . plain but comfortable
one. Perhaps Mr.. Boutwell, feels
greater security as Senator than he
felt while in the Cabinet. His house
is not far from the locality called "The
Honest Miners Camp"-meaning the
neighborhood Of the palaces reared by
Senators Stewart and Jones, of Neya-
da
