COLLIDING COACHES,
Create q Sensation Near the Gar
rieon House Yesterday
Morning.

About FIVE o'clock yesterday morning, a.
the Lexington branch train was pulling of
the side track on to the main line, train
consisting Of an engine and caboose, thai
were to run rs . special to COncOrdia, ran
into the coaches, tipping them to the left in
. manner not at all cOnsOnant with the
ideas Of comfort entertained by the pas
sengeEs. The inmates of the coaches were
bound to get out of them. And get out
they did. Doors were in demand and rose
rapidly in the market, while windows were
at premium. Women went through
the windows head first, with
an utter disregard of feminine forgery,
and the Autter Of confused drapery, punct-
mated with bright and striped colored hose
formed picturesque scene that was fully
appreciated by the bystanders.
Engine 26l, Of the special, was pretty
seriously damaged, and will need the kind
attentions of the machinists for q while.
The coaches were pretty badly SCARED,
truss rods being broken and the varnish
icing scratched of. The Lexington train
went out al GO. No one was hurt, but
everybody in the coaches were scared out
of years growth. II is not definitely
known who was to blame in the matter.

EDITOR BAzOO:-Last fall, sometime, /
think, man by the name of John Evans
advertised mare as 'strayed or stolen" in
the BAzOo. II he will correspond with me

"strayed or stolen" animal.
Respectfully, S. B. HArroN.
The advertisement in question was in
the BAzOo about one year ago, Two
months later the animal was found in this
vicinity, and is now in the possession of its
owner.
Mr.. Hatton is an honest man, and has
evidently got his eye ON either astrayed or

them.
A BAzoo reporter asked Mr.. Lashmet
yesterday If he intended to make the

The First PRAYER.

The following isthe first prayerdelivered
in the congress of the United States, BY
Rev. J. Duche, in December, 1877.
Oh Lord, our Heavenly Father, high and
mighty King Of Kings, and Lord of Lords,
who dost from Thy throne behold all the
dwellers ON earth, and reienest with power
supreme and uncontrolled over all the
Kingdoms, empires and governments; look
down in mercy, We beseech Thee, on these
American States, who have fled to Thee
from the rod of the Oppressor, and thrown
themselves on Thy gracious protection, de-
string henceforth to be only dependent Oh
Thee to Thee they have appealed for the
righteousness of their cause to Thee do
they now look up for that cOuntenance and
support which Thou alone canst give; take
them, therefore, Heavenly Father, under
Thy nurturing care give them wisdom in
council and valor in the field; defeat the
malicious design Of our cruel adversaries;
convince them Of the unrighteousness of
their cause and if they persist in their
sanguinary purpose, . let the voice of Thy
own unerring justice, sounding in their
hearts, constrain them to drop the veap-
ons of war from their unnerved hands on
the day Of battle! Be Thou present, O
God of wisdom, and direct the councils of
this honorable assembly; enable them to
settle things on the best and surest founda-
ton, that the scene of blood be speedily
closed, that order, harmony and peace may
be efiectually restored, and truth and JUS
tice, religion and piety prevail and flourish
among Thy people. Preserve the health of
their bodies and vigOr of their minds;
shower down ON them, and the millions
they here represent, such temporal bless
ings as Thou seest expedient for them in
this world, and crown them with everlast-
ing glory in the world to come. All this
We ask in the name and through the merits
Of Jesus Christ, Thy Son, Our Savior.
Amen.
