RAILROAD INCIDENT.

NARROW EsoAPg-INFANTILE FLIPFLAPs.
We believe the following thrilling incident,
which is narrated by one Of the officers OF the
Z. W. Il 3. r r., as recently occurring near
Seakde, Delaware, has not yet been publish
ed. In the early part of last month"; as the
express train from Washington, (lmited) was
approaching Seakide, running at about forty
five or six miles an hour, the engineer, Phill-
bert Carmichael observed small object on
the track, about a mile ahead which he
quickly recognized as child, apparently fas-
cinated with the approach of the rushing
train, and dancing up and down Cd the track,
Tapping its little hands, either in terror or de-
light, Mr.. Carmichael could not determine
which The brave engineer reversed the W est
enhouse vacuum, backed his Unbelievable,
and loudly applied the alarm punch, hopi0g
to frighten the child from the track, without
losing time. His efforts were, however, in
vain The danpness of the day had ubrica-
ted the rails TO such an extent that il was i'm
possible fully TO arrest the tremendous speed
of the locomotive, although it was greatly re-
tarded. Another rod, and the unconscious
infant would be crushed beneath the ponder
Gus wheels. At this moment, the peril of her
child was discovered by the mother, V 10 was
standing at her wash-tub, al her cottage door.
Paralyzed with terror, she was rooted TO the
spot, and hid her face in her hands from the
horrible sight. Grinding, grating, struggling
against its almost resisiess momentum, the
great engine crept closer and closer to the
prattling, dancing little creature, and the cold
drops of terror stood upon the grimy brow OF
the agonized engineer. But just as the fatal
point was reached, a faint jar from one Of the
slight Irregularities, so rare on that excellent
road dipped the cow-catcher under the dan
cling feet Of The child, and landed him ge1ily
on the roadside, without scratch And as
the brave Carmichael put on his vacuum, aud
dashed forward on his lightning course, the
last glinpsehe had showed him was the rescued
infant sill tapping its little hands in childish
plee, as if to thank him for the skill aud cour-
age that had saved it from dreadful death
Such incidents are extremely rare, and if
the narrator were not an intelligent officer Of
the road, would scarcely be believed. Those
familiar with Seakide and its vicinity, how
ever, will recognize the main features Of this
strange adventure as one with which they are
already familiar.

man give heed or lend helping hand in
such work. Will any Northern man claim
ing decency or honor become party to
such infamy! 1 think not-though Mr..
Carpenter may, as he has.
And again would ask how it is with Mr..
Sumner! When Brooks caned him in the
Senate Chamber, was the only editor in
the Cult States to denounce the barbarous
and heathenish act, since which time have
been denounced by slave-drivers and assas-
sins as untrue to my section And l am
still denounced by the unrepentant portion
of this class of men for my defense of such
patriots as Charles Sumner and for my gen.
eral advocacy of the rights of man. And
will Mr.. Sumner stand to the right with me
now, or will he give my corrupt and MUIR
derous enemies and assailants the aid and
comfort of his open support, or even of his
silence!
If he is the man have ever thought him
he will be found now on the side of right
and justice-openly and defantly so-as
was so found against all odds in the days of
his sore trials and troubles. Let him now
"be just and fear not" know it is his ma
ture 80 to be. Let him be true to his ma
ture. If he will but lock into this Louisiana
case with that research and discrimination
of which he is so capable, he will find that the
real merits Of our cause has all the beauty
of truth and justice as its foundation, tenn

founded in true Christian charity-that
charity which is az beautiful az the wings
Of the morning and enchanting as the whis-
per of Gods will. ''heard in tho calm of

evil.
The friends Of liberty and Justice in this

have right to look to the enlightened in.

North for continued aid and succor in work.
ing out the problem of free government
here: and We do so appeal to them. and
most earnestly ask them not to prove
untrue or become faint and weary in the
continued struggle for human rights.
But in any event we shall make no truce
nor compromise with Sillainy. Being in
the right. and on the eide Of truth and
honor. and also in the majority. we Repub.
