TF.RKfBLK COUISIOJT OST THE CBN THAI. RAILHOA*. One Man Killed and Tour Wounded--A Fearful Wreck. The city was startled Thursday morning by the report that a collis ion had occurred on the Central rail road and that several jiersons were killed and wounded. The Telegraph and Messenger of fice was besieged during the day and until latest night for the particulars. At 9 o'eclock the train from the wreck came in, and from a passenger who narrowly escaped with his life, and who saw the wreck, we obtained the following: The fast mail train from Macon hound for Savannah arrived in Ma con on time. It was due here at 12:45 and should have left at 12:55, but •wing to a bumper being pulled out •fa car while in the depot and the exchange for another car, it left Ma con about fifty-five minutes behind time. This could not be made up. At Herndon, or Nog, is th termi nal station. The war freight'from Savannah arrives here In the after iioou and its leaving time is 5 a. m., and thirty-uiiuutes after the Savan nah bound fast mail passes that point. Thursday morning the way freight, Conductor Kelley tad En gineer Frai.k Hu chins, engine An- drew Low, left No. M exactly on time When about half wav between Hern don ami Millville, or 0' and 9Q En gl mrer Hutchins discovered Jha {hot , mail about ..one hundred feet ahead <?f him. As ho was running at ihe rata of thirty miles an hour, he knew it. was an iaipossibility to stop, and there wat nothing left for him gnd ; hit fireman ato do hut to jump for ' their lives, which they did. Aboat 5*4 the collision took place. The engineer on tho petseuger train ■ wat John Kell, and when he saw the danger he jumped out of hla cab win -1 dow, though not before applying tho airbrakes. His fireman. Mike Fal ney, was not so fortunate. For some i reason he dhl not jump, ami was . pulled out f the wreck with a ter f rfbte gash in his head, and with bruit* ;cs ail over. him. When the engines went together, the tender of the passenger train letw seoi>ed the capresa car, the rear end rising up and crushing right into the car, but fortunately not injuring Ex press Messenger Oaniiugsou, who ' happened at ihal moment to be in \ the rear ol the car. The second class car, which was next, was pitched up ' and telescoped the combination mail and smoking car. lu the second class 1 cs¥ were several passengers, among them Mr. Frank Wilson, of Bartow, who was killed by his head being , crushed, ami two others named Ste vens, A. li. and Shine/, Isith from .fefl’erson county. A. H. Stovona had Ilia leg l>r<>lc.<:n and .Sidney was badly bruised. Then* wn alto a negro ; woman named Fannie Freeman, from . Mtltedgeville, and tier leg wai bro ken. There were others in the car, but they only receired slight bruises lies. The end of the second-class car pushed through te (he partition which divides the mail apartment fretn the smoking apartment, and in the latter part ef the car were sealed some hall'a do7.cn passengers, among them Hr. Natlmi Monroe, of Maeeif These passengers heard the crash and started from their seats, but were knocked down and smothered by the partition which fell upon them. The luggage car, tirsticlaas car and sleep er* were Buiitjmod, The freight train was also badly wrecked, hut no person on it was in jured. Next to the tender was a Ik>x ear loaded with flour, tobacco, ate. This was demolished to such an ox tent that hardly a piece of timlier two feet long was left of it. Veil to it were two lumber cars, ami one of those was thrown tt|>oii the other as nicely as if several days had been oc cluded in the job, The other luiabor m FfilTit up BR°I1 : , |rjycnieq a curious sight. the crash the tiniujnred pas- S sengers rushed out of the cars to see what had hap|ieiH-d. ft was hardly l| 4'lift'llip and lh(l nearest flr j|on.e tlijit-c |j|Hes distant, jtuu* jifirs were at onee'diapatqjrecffor med j*■ -tI jti i. and to letcgfaph jhe iiitur majiow Hto jjtirsM!i*' galling fpr jiclp Hie |?reP* WV* rendered every assistance to the ' wounded, cs|>eeiallv Miss Susie Jnlili |'eon, of Griffin.

Prom the Woman’s Christian Temperance Valon. The Woman’s National Christian Temiiersnce Union has set apart the 23d of December as a day of thanksgiving and prayer te God for the rapid advancement of thetemper~ ance cause throughout eur country and throughout the world. The pro gress has been so marvelous of what was a few years ago ceatidered such a forlorn hope, that God has surely been in it, working upon the hearts and consciences of men and women and stirring them up to duty and the performance of His will. The tunming light is breaking, The darkness disappears, Tha sea aof earth are waking To peaiteotial tears. SHg Eseh breeos that sweeps tha oceoo Of earth’s remotaat aatinos - Prepared bo Hieo’i war. Ami the light that la brenklqt to to fhllof promise to the. wretched and boneless, lo the captive and siu-bur deued, to the innocent and defenceless and to the suffering and perishing, as to appear almost like the second coin ing of the Star of Bethlehem. Uit God’* people then, everywhere, take courage, aud rejoicing with thanksgiving take hold and help along in the work. fs We call upon the Slate of Georgia to retnin special thanks for the glo rious victories gained and the benefits received. (Air sister States are look ingtowards us with interest, and for example. Let its with God’s help set them a noble one of speedy and last ing refermation. The day set apkrt it the annlversa ry of the Wonsan’s Temperance move ment in our country. And as it falls upon Sunday the ministers through out the State are requested to preach a Gospei temperance sermon, on the morning of the 23d of December. AM the people nre requested to have temperance mass meetings in the af ternoon abut night, at which collec tions shall be taken as a “thank offer ing" its the cluse, and donated to the Woman’s Christian Temperance Un ion, to help them in (heir work. The funds thus collected will be mostly used in distribution of tera |ieranee literature, for the purpose of arousing and keeping alive the pub lic interest upon the subject. Many good people may be willing to help ua who ate opposed te total abstinence and prohibition. We hope they may help us; and we ask them most ear nestly that if ttie original blessing of pure stimulants has been turned by misuae and adulteration into tlie most blighting curse to the human race, and is so recklessly destroying souls tliat are so precious in the world to come as to keep two Kingdoms— Heaven and hell—at constant war fare for the possession of them, then is it not right to ask God’s deliverance from such an evil, and to do all we can to banish it fro pi mjr midst? If we are wrong in our plan of work may God pardon It and bring it to nothing, If right, may He bless and direct and prosper. To those who arc opposed to us we claim leniency fur I lie sake of our mo tive a iid tbe expected good. To those whs are in sympathy with us, we ask their prayers and their encouraging help. And, as the Kid is a day set apart for Ibis especial purpose, we hope the efforts will be made in our behalf ttpqjjghcqt |hg (ttytlne State. We eayayajly peg that ‘-temperance people” es|iecially will exert them selves to make arrangements for the occasion. Respectfully, M its. W. C. Kihm-.t, jjjtate |!resijlpjjl Wf! T • Augusta Ga.

Mr. McDonald Dellghtod—Virginia Dem ocraUDlsappolnted. The Hon. Joseph E. McDonald, in an interview upon theeleetion of Mr. Carlisle, says: •‘I am greatly pleased over the elec tion ef Mr. Carlisle. He is a safe, conservative man, who does not hold extreme views.” ‘•What is his positiou on tho tariff questiou ?” “He is in favor of a tariff for reve nue, and in favor of such protection as that tariff gives to the industries of he country. He is not in favor of au immeadiatc adoption of free trade, but in favor of tariff reform, the re form to be made without damaging the business of the country. Tariff for revenue, with incidental protec tion, expresses it. There is no ques but that iu reforming tho tariff there must be an accommodation to the busi ness of the country, so that no disas “Hr. Carlisle's positiou is, therefore, in accord with jreur own ?” “It is." “U It the position of the Western Democracy F* “It is.” “is there any connection between the election of Mr. Carlisle and the Democratic victories since 1880 ?” “Mr. Carlisle’s election is due to the same causes that brought about there victories.” “Then, if th Democrats ,in 1884 should go into the l’rcsidentisl cam paign upon a platform in harmony with Mr. Cariisls'g position on the tariff, do you think they would win ?’’ “1 most certainly do.” “What is Mr. Carlisle's attitude on the question of taxing llqnor and to bacco t” “He is in favor of maintaining the taxes for the present.” “What about the Republican cry that Mr. Carlisle is a Southern man?” “I think tho time is past, for bring ing into the consideration of a man’s worthiness fbr position Ihe matter of the section in which he may chance to reside, wore particularly when the man in question was a union tuan during the war as Mr. Carlisle was.” “Tho Democrats have, then, thrown down the gage of battle to the Repub licans on the tiriffqncslion ?” “They have. That is to say, the Democrats are opposed to protection fm the sole purpose of protection.” —lndianapolis Special. curious aTXAJt knoinks. Something novel In the way of steam engine manufactures is being established at Nashville. The engines to be made will be very similar to the small ones used on narrow guage roads, hut arc made with grooved wheels to run on round pine poles in stead of an ordinary track. The pole rt ads are cheap, as the trees are cut down, laid the right distance apart and secured by pegs drivon Into the ground. Little or no grading will be required, and with a good force of hands several miles can be laid in a day. The roads are especially adapt ad to hauling lumber, earth and ores, and for military transportation. Similar roads are now in use at some of the saw mills in Georgia and Flor da, hut at present, we believe, they are only used hv mule cars. The en gines will be constructed for strength rather than speed, and will, it is claimed, lie able tp mj(| J;payy loads up stoop grades, flttd the whpeto will have considerable lateraj play, so as to adapt themselves to Inequalities in the width of the track.
