CHRONICLE & SENTINEL
The Lat« Railroad Accident*
The following Communication from the
Agent to the Constitutionalist, satisfactorily ex- j
plains the causes of the late accident on the ' I
Georgia Railroad.
Accident on the Georgia Railroad. — Mr. Edi
tor ;—ln an article with the above caption in
your paper of last Saturday morning, you
concluded with the following inquiry: “Has
there not been some criminal negligence in
this business? ”
A plain statement of the facts, connected
with the unfortunate accident, will answer this
question satisfactorily.
Nine tenths of all kailroad accidents happen
from a combination of causes—and this was the |
case in this instance. The bridge in question
has been in use five years; and was composed
of light trusses, supported by wooden trestles
every 36 feet. It was built with a view of re
placing it with embankment sometime within
ten years after its completion—or at least before
the decay of its timbers should render *t unsafe.
This work of replacement has been going on
during the past year, and is more than one half <
accomplished. On the 13th inst. the Engine
“Oregon,” with a train of five Freight Cars,
passed over the whole of that portion of the. *
bridge which had not been filled up, in safety, w/j
and broke down on the embankment (which
had been carried nearly to the top of the
bridge) and directly over one of the trestles, or
points of support. The embankment had set
tled and carried the bridge with it at this point
some two feet. The Engine was a new one,
and was orderded to be of 16 tons weight,
but probably weighs 19 tons, and is heavier
than the Freight Engines which had been run- 1
ning on this portion of the Road; with the
exception of one other of the same weight,
which had been in use there two or three weeks.
Judging from the appearance of things after
the accident, the Engineer must have been
running at a very highspeed for a Freight
Train, and much faster than the rules of the
Road allow over the bridges.
The plain inferences from the above facts are,
that the settling of the embankment, strained
and weakened or displaced the bridge limbers, a
and that the momentum of the heavy Engine
running fast produced the failure, at the point
where the bridge was supposed to have been
greatly strengthened by the addition of the
embankment.
The company instead of being “culpably
negligent,” have some time since made con
tracts for replacing all of the temporary truss
bridges with substantial arch culverts and em
bankments —and will spare no expense in ma
king their road of the most permanent aud
safe character throughout.
Agent G. R. R- & B. C.
Professor Koilenati, of Berlin, has propound
ed a theory, that men shed their skins as ani
mals do their coats, and that, like them, they
assumed a thicker or thinner covering [a natu
ral skin he meant,] according to the climate
in which they reside. When this change is
effected, man is said to be “acclimated ”
Newspapers.—An invention of a novel
character has been made in Paris. By a simple
yet ingenious mechanism, the folding of news
papers, which has hitherto been performed by
the hand, is now effected by a peculiar machine.
With the assistance of one person to attend to
it, this machine will fold 2,000 newspapers an
hour.
Death of a Miser.—The Picayune says that
a miser, a planter, died at Attakapas, who was
worth in money, land and negroes, at least
$200,000. He had his coffin made before his
death, of lough, unhewn planks, in which was
found, after his death, some two or three thou
sand dollars in gold. Secreted in the ceiling
of the house was found $45,000 in gold, and
in an iron chest, also, a very large amount in
gold and paper.
Dialogue.—Spruggle’s youngest, Julia Au
gusta Spruggle, said the other day;
“ Poppy, is walls round forts any relation to
the sheep ?”
“ No, my love. Why do you ask ?”
“Cause I heard uncle Bob talking about the
ram-parts of a fort the other day.”
“ Be quiet, child, and go to your ma.”
“ But poppy, them ramparts ain’t like fish,
are they I”
“No my child. What on earth put that in
your head ?”
‘•Why, cos uncle Bob said when he was in
Flanders one night, he was obliged to scale the
ramparts.”
