SNOW.

A snow storm. the like of which has
not been experienced for years, began
week ago last Saturday, as far south as

on New Years evening, while the bril-.
liant receptions were going on all over
the city, snow was knee deep in the
streets. New England was visited and
all the railroads were annoyed or embar-
COED by the deep and drifting snow. The
weather has been cold since the storm,
and good sleighing extends nearly all
over the country. In the meantime we
are suffering about as ever up on the

TERRIBLE RAILROAD ACCIDENT.
TRAIN WITH l75 PEOPLE BREAKS
THROUGH AN IRON BRIDGE.

One of the most horrible railroad dis
asters in this country for many years
occurred on the Lake Shore railroad at
Ashtabula. o., Friday. The Pacific ex-
press train, six coaches and one or two
drawing-room cars, arriving at the point
about 8 o'clock in the evening, bound
westward, and an hour late broke
through an iron bridge across Astabula
creek, falling to the ice below, 20 feet,
and Immediately caught fire. Many
passengers more undoubtedly killed and
wounned by the fall, others we're burned
to death, and. in addition, some entan-
gled among the debris so that they
drowned for the ice was broken at some
points others still we're. possibly, frozen
to death, the work of rescue being slow
and the weather. meantime, growing in
tensely cold 1t was impossible to de-
termine how many were killed and
wounded. but the cars were well loaded,
and an estimate of Us as the whole
number of people on board is probably
pretty correct. while the fear that at
least one-third of them were killed is
by no means unwarranted. AS near
as could be ascertained about midnight,
so persons were wounded. but later
report indicates that the number was
larger.
1t had been showing almost constant
ly for As hours, and at the time of the
disaster the storm was driving, the snow
being heaped up in high banks on both
sides of the track-all this making &C
cess to the scene with help difficult, the
work of Identification slow, and intelli-
gence about the affair neager Just
how the accident happened we are not
told, but the train was drawn by two
engines, and, when the crash came. one
of them was left on the bridge, every.
thing else going down; the engineer
that fell was, however, not killed
though somewhat injured. Relief was
Immediately sent from Ashtabula and
Cleveland, but the train from the latter
city was two hours in getting 80 miles
so deep was the snow, though by tive
engines. Meanwhile the sufferings O.
those imprisoned in the wreck mus
have been horrible, for the weather
grew colder and colder. Both public
and private houses of Ashtabula wer,
thrown open, and everybody that coulC
work to advantage did work among tn
debris, but little could be accomplishe,
before daylight. The burning of tn
wreck lasted till l:20 next morning.

James Buchanan was a minority
President, receiving 377. 629 votes less
than Fremont and Fillmore. Was this
fact urged against his election and iIau-

Wheatland statesman without compunc-
ton, and refused to listen to any Objec-
ton on the part Of members of the

Nasty has held war meeting at the
Corners" but the resolution prepared
by the ex-postmaster, declaring for Sc
cession, were refused passage. Biglcr
was opposed to them. He wanted to
know who would pay the Southern
claims if the South again seeded. The
South couldn't, and there would be no
North to do it. Then in case the South
sets up government. with Mr.. Tilden
as its head, there would be such rush
of hungry Office seekers from the North,
such multitude of hungry strangers
within their gates, that no Southern pa
triOt would have any prospect whatever.
When Bigler had enforced these points,
the enthusiasm cooled down and each
patriot glided from the house.
