APPALLING DISASTER.
EXPLOSION IN A COAL MINE
NEAR GLASGOW.
OVER TWO HUNDRED LIVES
LOST.

FIRST DESPATCH
LONDON, Oct pa dispatch from Glasgow
say that an explosion has occurred in collie
~ at Bigh Blantyne, near that city. Four
hundred men were in the mire at the time. A
large number of lives we're lost.
[sEcoND DEsPATcH1
GLASGOW, Oct. 22-The most intense excite
meut prevails at Blantyne, over the collierv tx
posloD today. Exploring parties are at work
to succor hose in the mine, but they have little
hope of saving any alive and express the op,u-
ion that every one now in the pit is dead. Ore
survivor says the bottom of the pit is full of
dead bodies.
THIRD DESPATCH
GLASGOW, Oct. % q .. m.-It is feared the
entire 4OO who were in the colliery at High
Blaptyne when the explosion occurred, have
persisted. special train was sent to bring the
injured TO the Glasgow nfirmary, but returned
as no one has been got out alive. Twenty bod
les have been recovered.
FOURTH DESPATCH
GLASGOW, OFT. 22-The latest particulars
from High Blantyne show that 233 men des-
cended into the mines this morning. None of
these except one who was working near the
shaft at the time Of the explosion had been res
cued up to a late hour this evening. Very lit
tie hope of rescuing the men is entertained, as
the explosion occurred at o'clock in the
morning and exploring parties had to relin-
quish their efforts in one pit at o'clock 10 the
afternoon because of the poisonous gases at
the bottom of the shaft of the other pit, the
coliery comprising the two pits with communi.
cation between. A faint knocking has been
heard, but SO far it has been impossibl to
reach the bottom of the shaft in consequence Of
the volume of gas and the destruction of the
woodwork and hosting apparatus by the er-
plosion.
FIFTH DESPATCH.
GLASGOW, Oct. 22-9 o. m.-The explorers
have resumed operations in the first pit They
report that 40 corpses are lying at the foot Of
the shaft.

RAILROAD TROUBLES.
How the Manager of the passumpsic

North TROY, VI, Oct ia part of the
Southe asierD Railroad was taken possession of
Sunday morping in Canada, abnut mile from
here, by gang of % men under Col. A. Eos
ter About fifteen reds of the track was torn
pp and all trains are stopped. There is great
excitement here About week ago Col. Fos-
ter was arrested at Newport on a trumped-up
debt of $27, and thrown into Irasburgh Jail till
friends from this place baled hIm out. THIS
outrage is supposed to have hastened Col. Fos-
ter 10 taking possession of the road on the
ground that tine road had not been repaired as
agreed upon by the Passumpsi railroad when
they leased the road from him The managers
OF the Passdmpslc road are charged with caus-
ing the arrest Of Col. Foster at Newport At
this writing the men are at work repairing the
road, and it is lot known when connections
can be made between Boston and Montreal
NEWPORT. VT, Oct 22-Trains will run as
usual between North Troy and Montreal, but
the conn ection between Boston and Montreal
is broken. Superintendent Folsom of the Pas
snmpsic road states that ali trains over the por-
ton of the road now under their eontroi, will
be cancelled and mails be carried by team be-
tween Newport and North Troy, whence the
Southeastern mail will go through as usual
Travel over this route must come to a stand
still till a satisfactory settlement of the difficult
ties between the two roads can be made, which
will probably consume some time.

per OF the Republicans of New York at their
state convention on the 26th of September
1877. Hrequired all the hOrtatory powers OF
their Senator-and they ara unusually conclu-
sive with New York Republicans-to dIssuade
tnem from expressing their disapprobation OF
the management of the Executive OF tneir
cnolce. The attempt TO extort from them an
affirmative declaration of approval was as
futile as it was unwise. The delegates in that
Convention represented constituency which
Is as earnest, sincere and true to principle as
any body of men the sun ever shone upon.
They can't be tossed about by every wind of
doctrine. They can't be made to surrender
their convictions at the beck of power, or for
the rewards OF place. They are grandest when
they stand for principles, preferripg defeat to
reimbursement. They had a thousand times
rather he IN minority than to be in the wrong.
Aud 1t is because they have lever counted the
Cost of remaining faithful to that grand cause
ct human liberty which is their political gospel
that they have SO often achieved victory, for
victory will come, sooner or later, to every
man who is steadfast to the truth which is
within him.
Of course the great stake we are playing for
is the SenstorshIp. New York has the honor
Ot being represented in the upper house of
Congress By statesman who has no superior
and few peers in the walks of public life.
There is nothing worth contending for in our
pending canvass except to save the state from
the humiliation and the nation from the loss
involved in the failure to return so valuable a
tribune OF the people. As far as he is con-
cerped it would be greatly to his personal ad-
vantage to be relieved OF his public duties. Ii
were to consult his Interests only 1 should well
come a result of the election that would make
it impossible for him to fill another term in the
Seuste. His profession would yield HIM ten
fold more income. But the country is not SO
opuleut in men of great Intellectual and execu-
tive capacity that it can AFFORD to part with one
who, whether in private or public sphere, en-
mobiles American character and reflects honor
upon the American name.
Whatever may be the issue of the canvass,
this set down as certain, that three-quarters
at least of all the votes which will bs cast in
the Empire State on the sixth day of Novem'
Der for the Republican ticket will manifest the
faith in and regard of the electors who deposit
them for Roscoe Conkling. I should be
ashamed of the party If it were otherwise, fol
If it were to prove unfaithful to SO pure. I'M
selfish and able leader it would be unfit tx

TRAIN WHECKING.
A Train on the Ohio & Mississippi Road
Throwa from the Track-Narrow Is
cape frem Fri2hiful Disaster.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. pa diabolical attempt
was made early this morning to wreck train
on the Ohio & Mississippi Railroad, but lucki-
ly no lives were lost. When the passenger
tram which left Cincinnati last night reached
point q miles east of Noble, III this morn
ing, it encountered rail- one end of which was
elevated about foot high, and the whole train
consisting of an oyster car, mail, express, bag
gage, two passenger coaches and three sleepers
was thrown from the track excepting the en-
CINE and one sleeper The oyster car was
smashed and all the other cars more or less in
jured, but not passenger hurt.
An examination showed that the rail had
been elevated with jack screw and the imple-
ment was under it to keep it up; also that the
rail opposite had been loosened and turned so
that the train would be thrown into two cattle
yards close by, but fortunately it took an oppo-
site direction and the cars plunged into the soft
ground in shallow cut, and prevented what
otherwise would have been frightful disaster.
1t is thought the act was committed by one
or more of six section men recently discharged.
