ACCIDENT AT THE W. & II. DEPoT--A some.
what unusual accident occurred on siding at
the Wilmington IL Reading depot in this city,
yesterday afternoon. A shifting engine was
pushing ahead of it on the trestling four freight
cars, and when almost at the East end rail
spread, throwing the wheels from the track and
dropping the full weight of the shifter about
foot and half, the axes striking upon the rails
and crushing stringer beneath them on one side.
Fortunately the shifter was balanced by one of
the piers under the trestling and did not fall
through, nor yet roll over on its side. Very lit
tie damage was done except to the track and
trestliug, but this will soon be repaired by
force Of men who were brought down from
Coatesville, this morning. The rail spread at
its point of connection, being caused by the
splitting of one of the stringers.

join the Washington staff of prominent Dem
ocratic morning journal. Mr.. George Morgan

ness office in handsome manner.
Messrs. r. Hoo x Co. are building new press
for the Gazette, which will be set up in a short

1t is related to us that when the Wilmington
dailies go down to Middletown people there who
read the Ecery Evening "wonder if this is true"
that they generally discredit what is printed i'll
the Herald, and then refer to the COMMERCIAL
to corroborate what they read elsewhere before
they accept it. The COMMERCIAL is, generally
a pretty safe authority, and Wilmington people
are becoming convinced of this fact, day by day.
