SHOCKING AccIDENT.-A passenger train
on the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul
Railroad plunged into creek near New
hampton, Iowa, early yesterday morning.

amount of water which has been running of

gorge of ice was formed which previous to
the arrival of the train carried away por-
ton of the bridge The engine and three
coaches went into the creek, and we're i'm
mediately submerged in the torrent. A
scene of the widest confusion ensued, and it
was with great difficulty that the passengers
could be reached, owing to the rushing OF
the waters through the windows. Those
who were rescued from the smoking car,
which was almost entirely submerged, were
taken from the windows, some manned to
such IN extent that they were powerless to
help themselves, while others were nearly
drowned before aid could reach them. A

ALEXANDRIA,, April 8.

TO the editor of the Alexandria Gazette:
T wish to correct some "graue" errors
nrinted in the GAZETTE of yesterday, under
the srticle "Mr. Todd Wins" Please al
low me- to saw that the Mr.. Nourse who Is
a member of the Home Missions Committee,
ia Prof. ]. f. Nourse AID not your fellow
f0,cnsman. / have had nothing whatever to
do with the Todd case since cast my vote
to sustain the charges made against MIN. l
have let it severely alone since last July. L
think the public should have the truth in
regard to Mr.. John r. Hornbaker. He did
not appear before the committee on home
Missions at all, or have anything to say
against Mr.. Todd's receiving aid from the
Board of Home Missions. He appeared be-
fore the judicial COMMITTEES in order to push
his complaint against the action OF the ses-
sion of the Manassas church. His CON-
pinint was sustained. Mr.. Hornbaker is not
taking any action against Mr.. Todd, or do
ing anything, simply waiting to sea what
,be General Assembly will do with the com
paint against the action OF Synod. MI
Graham, of Clifton, Va, came to Presbytery
to ask aid for that church, which is supplied
by other persons, not Mr.. Todd. Mr. L.
has not preached tnere for over five years.
The Committee on Home Missions declined
Mr.. Todd's application for this reason: One
year aCo they had assurances that this aid
would not be asked for again. They re.
ported 10 the Presbytery that they declined
to recommend the church for aid, but sald
they wished Presbytery to assume the re
sponsibilty and asked the members to re
ioye them. The vote was not to either
sustain or not sustain the committee
