The North bound passenger train, on
the Charlotte, Columbia & Augusta Rail.
road, met with most fearful accident on
last Friday afternoon, by the falling in
of the trestle over the south fork of Fish.
ing Greek, ter miles south of Rock Hill.
Tho engine and tender passed over safe.
ly, but the baggage, express and two pas.
senger cara were precipitated in,o tho
ourging waters of the creek. Passengers
we're compelled to leave '',e cars, which
were nearly submerged in water, and
swim for their lives. Numbers of them
caught to trees in the midst of the stream,
and hung on until boats could be broug,.a
from the Catawba River to rescue them.
There was quite number of passengers
on board returning from the meeting of
the stockholders, which had just been
held in Columbia, and it is indeed most
wonderful that many lives were not lost.
Only one person, Mr.. Mclaughlin, o
merchant of Charlotte, is positively
known 10 have been drowned. Several
others were wounded, but none dan
gerousIy. The trestle was come fifteen
feet high, and had evidently been under
mined by the heavy freshet. A train
he'd passed over it only few moments
before the catastrophe, and the engineer
had examined and thought IL perfectly
safe. The accident is the result of usinp
the ordinary trestleing, which is in use
ON most Southern Roads, and are fire..
anently deceptive. from the fact that
their foundations are frequently under
mined in such manner that it is impossi-
ble 10 ascertain the fact.

SITTING BULLS WHITE CHIEF.-The
commission which was sent to Sitting
Bull made an important discovery in the
fact tkAt the warrior has in his camp a
white prisoner, captured Mt the Custer
massacre. Before reaching Fort Walsh
Tumors reached the commission that Sit.
ting Bull held some of Clusters men as
prisoners, and after the frat conference
one of the half-breed Interpreters em
ployed by Gen. Terry visited the camp.
and while passing through was accosted
in English by q person dressed and
painted. as o chief, who said that his name
was Martin Ryan, who was q corporal in
company I, 7th Cavalry, Col. Keough's
company, and had been taken a prisoner
at the battle Of che Little Big Horn with
Custer. Inquiry apparently substantiated
this assertion, and the following facts
were ascertained: Ryan's life had been
spared by Sitting Bull himself, who
adopted him into his family. Ryan
made several attempts to escape, but be.
ing carefully guarded was unsuccessful,
and on each occasion he was seyerelv
beaten. He has apparently accepted the
situation, and Sitting Bull has made him
q waT chief and married Ryan to one of
his own daughters. Ryan has let his
hair grow long in Indian fashion, dresses
as an Indian, and is known by the Sioux
rs the White Chief.
Upon the return of the commission to
81 Paul; General Terry caused the mus.
tel. rolls of Company I, Seventh Cavalry.
70 be examined, and found that Martin
Ryans name is borne as corporal, and
that he was present for duty when his
command vent into that fatal action of
June %, 1876. It was stated by the
friendly Indiana that there are several
others of Cutters men prisoners in Sit
ting BULBS camp, but Ryan's case was the
only one which was verified. Sittino
Bull was asked the question direct b9
General Corbin if he took any prisoners
of the Seventh Cavalry, and answered
fatty 'That is none Of your business"
