RAILROAD ACCIDENT Yesterday evening,
as the freight train from the Manassas Division
of the Midland Railroad, was coming around a
sharp curve between Manassas aud Bull Run
Bridge, the engineer discovered number Of
railroad spikes laid upon the track. He, at
once, reversed his engine, and every effort was
made to stop the train, but before the speed
was checked, and within few yards of where
he saw the obstruction, the engine was thrown
FROM the track, and down al embankmeut about
fifteen feet. The engine lay upon its side, and
the tender aud one car Of stone were also of
the track aud down the embaukmeut No Que
was hurt. The fireman jumped of, but the en-
glneer, Mr.. j. H. Watkins, staid upon the en-
glue until 1t stopped, and then crawed out aud
came to the track, and strange to say, did not
receive scratch. The train was in charge of
Conductor James Iden. The track was cleared
aud all trains were passing 10 about two hours,
the mail train due here at $40 arriving at $40.
The obstruction was evidently placed upon the
track by some one who understood bow he
might accomplish his 6endish design and it is
great pity that be was not caught 10 the act,
so that the law could take its course with him.

The INvEsTIGATIoN.-The Board OF Alder
men resumed the investigation Of the charges
against DR.. j. B. johnson, last night, amid the
unabated interest of the large crowd of persons
who had assembled to witness the proceedings.
The prosecution tailed to prove anything that
could be construed as furnishing the Conduct OF
Dr. johnson with the faint OF dishonesty, and
every charge against him Was met with an un-
qualified denial on the part of that gentleman,
who stated that they were untrue in spirit,
and incapable Of being proved by human test-
mony." That DR.. johnson is entirely blame
less, so far as the management Of the Board Of
Health is concerned, and innocent of any dere.
lictIon of duty was abundahty established, and
be was shown to have been an officer faithful to
the public service, and deserving of commenda-
ton, for the careful and economical discharge of
his duties. DR.. Powell, in making the charges,
believed them true and relied upon the records
of the Board OF Health for their subsantlation,
but on an examination of the accounts, and as
certaining that be had been misled, by entries,
as to the expenses of the sulal pox hospital and
its management which were not borne out by
the vouchers, very promptly withdrew all the
charges. save one, that of DR.. Johnsons acting
as Health Officer, without authority, and made
ample apology for the wrong done DR.. johnson
IN making the accusations.

ton OF Mr.. FL Marvin Wharton, at the Baptist
Church, last night, were of an impressive and
Interesting character Rev. DR.. Cuthbert, of
Washington, preached from Coiossians l., 2Sth:
"Whom we preach, warning every man, and
teaching every mao 10 all wisdom; that We may
present every man perfect in Christ Jesus. !"
The discourse was deeply earnest betrayiog the
speakers own rich experience in those solemn
duties involved in his subject. He closed with
terse and touching allusion to preacher who,
after bearing the standard OF the Cross for
twenty years 10 patience and steady herolsm,
was told Of one person who had professed to be
saved through bis preaching. He declared tia,
it was enough. The twenty years were not
lost. and through the grace of God he was
ready tor another twenty years, if so be he
might save one more soul. The customary
charge to the candidate was then delivered
by Rev. James B Taylor, of Culpeper, Va.
This was replete with encouraging words aud
useful admonitions. He showed in glowing
colors the comfort and JOY the minister $ call
ing contains, and with affectionate fa,htulncss
the hardshlps, the tolls, the sacrifices which
are inevitable. The predominating character
istie of Mr.. Taylors speaking is an intense ear
nestness, compounded apparently of vivid
conception and realization Of the subject 10 his
own mind, and a yearning desire to impress his
hearers to their eternal good The charge was
followed by the Ordaining Prayer by Rev. Mr.
Penick, the ministers laying their hands upon
the candidates head, after which be was re-
celved by them in the pulpit with the right
hand of fellowship. Rev. Mr. Wharton goes
to his work in ,Luray and Front Royal with en-
couraglng prospects of great usefulness.
