A WRECK ON THE LONG ISLAND RAILROAD.

Yesterday morning d. G.. Corbin, of the Long ISL
and Railroad, accompanied by several OF the direc-
tors of the road and by General Superintendent Bar
ton left Hunters Point in special train consisting
of one coach and engine for run over the Montauk
road When the special neqred Rockville Centre,
the eas-bOund Sag harbOr freight tram Was at the
station discharging freight. There is heavy curve
in The road short distance west of the station,
which makes it impossible for the engineer of
train the station until the crossing is almost
reached The special rounded the curve
at good rate of speed and as
the engine struck. the straight track
the engineer saw the freight train ahead OF MN;
He shut of steam and applied the brakes but could
not stop his tram and the engine dashed into the
rear freight car with terrific force throwing 1t aud
the next two cars from the track. No person was
iniured but the parry in the special train were
badly shaken up. A wrecking train was dispatched
TO the scene of the accident as 1t was known
at Hunters Point, and the track was cleared after
two hours delay. The engine and car of the special
train were only slightly injured. From all that can
be learned the conductor of the freight tram had
been informed that the special was going out, and
lis train should have been the siding when the
accident occurred.

Repentance, however late, has some.
thing of the sanctty of justice. II has
taken General Grant twenty years 10
find out the ineXpiable wrong that the
Garfield court put upon FitZ John POr
ter. His present frank confession Of
twenty years acquiescenCe in the wrong,
while it does not mitigate those years OF
completely with band of military
blackmailers, relieves him of the odium
that history will visit upon such reCk
less partisans as Garfield and Pope
General Grants latest contribution to
the controversy is not so much plea
for the inevitable justice that awaits the
great soldier as it is a condemnation
OF the lawless cabal that ruined the life
OF an intrepid commander. Nor does
the ex-president's tardy confession of
faith in the loyalty of Porter even dur.
ing the time he held him guilty of tech
nical disobedienCe TO the orders of Pope.
relieve him of the responsibility he for
twenty years assumed of denying justice,
when word from him would have
brought it to pass.
During the eight years of Grants
presidency all the facts which have con.
vinced the country of Porter's innocence
aud Pope's malignant cruelty were
accessible to him as commander ia chief
The baseness OF Garfield was no secret.
Justice, not magnanimity, demanded his
interposition in the case, but neither the
duty of the magistrate nor the Oblga-
tions of his profession weighed sulli-
clently with him. This he now confesses,
and In admitting it he must be credited
with whatever merit is due to the ac
Acknowledgement Of gratuitous wrong
doing. When FitZ John Porter WAS
condemned by packed court, presided
over by Garfield, there was not real
soldier in the armies of the union who
believed that he was guilty OF disloyalty.
The man who had risked his life from
the mastering of the troops at Harris.
burg to the failing of Jackson at Gaines
Mill, could not have been guilty of the
treason Pope charged upon him.
Tie duplicity of Garfield was not then
30 fully known, as it was later when his
conduct towards Rosecrans left his
character blasted, but the very evidence
upon which the court based its findings,
was enough to convince impartial his
torlans of the ends that were subseryed
by that iniquiuous action. Though the
former revocation of the verdict may be
a solace to General Porter after twenty
years Of stigma, it is not needed to
vindicate him in the eyes of just
men. Every writer on the event has
