RAN INTo THE SHED.-Freight train No.
s, coming west Wednesday afternoon, left the
track at Tamarsck, in consequence of mis-
placed switch, and ran into the snowshed,
knocking down about 70 feet of it. Both of
the engines attached to the train and two or
three cars were derAiled, but no one was hurt.
A large force of men was put at work, and
the track was cleared by A VI. yesterday.
The accident delayed The east. bound express
about two hours. No. S came on to Sacra-
manto, but between Arcade Station and the
American-river bridge the engineer found
that his supply of water was about exhausted.
He cut loose from the train, hoping to be able
10 run into town, but had to come to a stop
near the Tivoli. Word was sent TO the rail-
road office, and the yard engine went out and
brought the freight train 10, coming about
4:50 The west bound express train was de-
lsyed by this detention to No. s, and got in
hall an hour late.
THE REPUBLICAN PRIMARY.-The various
ward csucuses had evidently presented tick
eta that were satisfactory to the Republican
voters of the city, as at the primary yester-
day afternoon there was no contest, nor op-
position to any one on the tickets. Conse-
quently there was very small vote polled.
1t was rather amusing to witness the distress
of certain members of the hummer" frater-
nifty, who, expecting sn abundance OF free
drinks, found themselves left out in the cold.
The vote in the wards was as follows First,
1856; Second, 1876; Third, Ill Fourth, SO.
Total, 500. In the Third Ward there were
only 40 names on the ticket, owing to some
mistake but II, Cook was put on as the
| fiftieth.
