A serious accident happened on tho Musoogoo railroad, at Howard station, Sunday night, under tho following cir cumstances) Some cars were standing on a switch, at tho station, and during tho storm,they wero blown from tho switch upon the main track. Tho passenger train from Columbus ran into Llicm and badly dam aged llie ongino and several cars. Tho engino was tbo Wo. S. Holt and tho en gineer was James Green, Tho following persons wero Inland» Homer Powers, engineer on the Perry branch, who was a passenger on tho en gine, was novel oly crushed in tho hips. William Huggins was hurt in tho right temple and in tho shoulder very serious. Jack Craig, wood-passer, was also badly burned. Tho latter two wero considered in ver dangerous conditions last night,and fears are ontcrtoinoil that they would not re cover. A similar oooident very nearly oeanrred nt Ward’s station on tho Southwestern railroad, where a car nai driven along tho track at a rapid rato by tho wind. Tho engineer of on approaching passen ger train saw itHoming in time to reverse hit engine, thus making the shock of tho Collision so light that neither car nor tho engine were damaged. the centra of tho city. 'While there was a general blow of great vio lence, experienced all over Macon and in the suburbs, tbo real track of tho cy- clono was loss than one-eighth of a mile wide. ■ It entered tho city from tho west, passed almost directly across, and passed out in an easterly direction. It was in this narrow track that tho greatest dam age was done, and tho greatest conster nation was produced. Outsido of it houses wero rocked a little, some trees were uprooted, fences prostrated and small outhouses in some instances were upset; but no very groat damage was in flicted. nor wero tho people so badly frightened. But in the main truck the -s^i wildest friglft prevailed, and tho results Public (School* vs. Pour School*. \wcro fearful to behold. Mttsn Trlc-jraph and Mmmjer x Tho J Wo have hoard of only a few persons friend* of public oducation ore indebted /who were out at the time of tho storm; A r.cncral Riot at Ihr Wlailv Between ten and eleven o'clo* k Sunday r.'"ht Mn on w.ui visited l.y a m*.-t tcr- rifi. cyclone, which .li.l a vast amount of damn to property. The oldest citizens rememl«T no storm that even npproxi- m.r 1 this in violence. It seemed that if the win.ls had collected all their fury and exhausted it in a iLv-h across tho centre of thccity. It was an irresistible tornado, sweeping everything that came within its path, twisting off tbo trunks of largo trees, prostrating others, and uiak- iug a general havoc such as no one can conceive of or appreciate without passing along the track of tho storm. Sunday was mostly a cloudy day, and about half post tliree in tho afternoon rain 1-cgau to fall slowly and continued for an hour or more. After that it re- mafaed elou.ly; hut nothing unusual was noticed in the atmosphere or clouds to create apprehensions of so fearful a visi tation as tho storm proved to be. About eight o'clock there was some lightning and this continued until tho storm came. Tho first intimation the people had of the coming of the tornado was a roaring sound, which at first resembled the noise of a train passing along a railroad. The noise grow nearer and began to resemblo the roar of flames in a dry, old wooden building. Still nearer it came and the sound is likened nnto "the rush of many waters.” It was not until it had fully burst upon the city that tho people un derstood what event was transpiring, and it came suddenly and with snch fury to create a panic tho like whereof had never before been experienced. It found most people in bed and asleep, and lost no time in arousing them from their slumbers; and then almost every household wss tho scene of the greatest alari*. There was a series of crashes, and rattling of windows, and shivering of glass, and hanging of doors, and ripping up of roofs, and crash of falling trees, that it was a very stout-hearted man who found no occasion for alarm. Few under stood at first what was transpiring, and when they did understand, no one knew where was a safe place. People rushed from room to room in their houses, hunt ing for safe places. Women screamed and men shivered at each fresh crash, and nono knew when the next would come, or what damage it would do. It is impossible to give any exaggerated description of the scenes that transpired. True, it was in the night, and each fami ly hod its own scene to itself; but each was wild enough to delight tho most ar dent lover of sensations, and it is not very sthange that some of the more timid thought the end of all things had come, and that earth and its appurtenances wero about to bo swept “in tho twinkling of an oyo” into tbo mysterious great hereafter. Our observation of tho results of the storm hero, and inquiries of its direction and ravages elsewhere, lead us to believe that tho effocts in Macon wero the result of a conjunction of two tornados—one coming from tho direction of Atlanta and tho other from tho direction of Columbus- They met somewhere near this place and formed a cyclone, which went whirling to you in no small degree for tho prog ress their cause lias made. Not only have you from time to time presented tnzny excellent arguments in advocacy of the justice and policy of a system of pop ular education, but your columns hsvo t-een open nt nil times to communica tion* and ilun'iissions intended to sited light upon the subject.

They say on immense cloud of pitch blackness billowed up from the west, which seemed to bo heavily charged with electricity. Angry lightnings seemed to bo darting out and in like serpents of fire, and ono could almost fancy that their hissing could bo beard. Tho roaring sound, which at first startle-1 tho wholo city, seemed to emanate from this cloud, which swirled over and over as if being rolled ahead by some invisible power behind. A* the cloud roachod tho city it appeared to explode, giving vent to its fury in one tremendous tornado of wind, which bowl ed and shrieked as if mod because of its long confinement and impatience to be lot loose upon its work of destruction. The spectacle was inconceivably grand, or would have been had it not boen to frightful. Till DAMAGE. It is difficult to form any estimate of tho damage that was done to the city, and it is equally difficult to enumerate every instance in which damage was done. There were few buildings in tho track of the cyclone which were not in jured, more or less. True the damage to many was very .slight, but all boro testi mony to tho weight of tho dreadful storm-kin'g who had driven along in his chariot daring the night. The cyclone first struck the Laboratory building, in the suburbs of Macon, which was unroofed, and otherwise damaged it. Between the Laboratory and Tattnall square we observe no great amount of Linage, further than the prostration of 'ignorance ' tn V * 1 and fences. A good deal of damage was done on Tattnall square. The Mess Hall at Mercer University suffered by having threo chimneys blown down, in juring the roof to an extent which re quires immediate repairs. No damage was dans to tho new college building. Many oitt-houaes about tho square were damaged, and many trees prostrated. St. Paul’s Chnrch (Episcopal) had a considerable portion of the roof torn off. This was a shingle roof. The t wo large stack chimneys—each having four fines—on Dr. G. E. Suss. dortTs residence, wero blown down upon the roof, crushing it down considerable. No damage w*s done to the insido of the 1-uilding except to the plastering of one tod l-y the gen- room, a portion of which fall upon ope of pie.

Across the street a chimney was blown from Dr. Baxter's residence, and a num ber of shade trees prostrated. The roof of Mrs. Burch's residence was crushed completely down upon the joists which support the ceiling. It was fortu nate that it sunk no further. Some chimneys were Mown from the residence of Mr. Stephen Collins. AU along Magnolia and Cherry streets the destruction of trees was very great. The storm struck Mulberry street about the Presbyterian Church, the roof which, on the cast side, was cracked nearly its whol x length. The ornamental work on the tower the Mulbeny Street Methodist Church was blown off, breaking a hole in the roof. A large window in the Court-house was blown in, and the wind escaped by break ing a hole through the slate roof. The damage was not very groat. About the intersection of Second and Mulberry street, the storm appears have been very violent. The roof of Mr. E. J. Johnston's building was damaged, and the plate glass windows badly broken, Thomas Wood’s furniture store was un roofed and one front window entirely destroyed. The roof of the Lanier House was almost entirely ruined and many windows wrecked. The roof of the Ma sonic Temple was damaged, hut to what extent wo could not ascertain. From Second to Third street a clean sweep was made of trees, and many signs were blown down. From here the storm passed over to Walnut street, taking in its passage number of trees and fences, tho stables in fit, rear of the Court-house, and some what damaging residences on both sides of Second street. A number of those large oaks on the old academy lot were prostrated. The east side of tho roof of Christ Church (Episcopal) was almost entirely torn off, nnd two pinnacles were wrested from the other side of tho church. Many of the shade trees in the middle of Walnut street were either uprooted or twisted off. A chimney wrs blown off of Dr. Boose- vclt’s residence, nnd two off of Mr. Mas- t-rson's. The piazza in front of Mr. T. C. Dempsey’s residence was literally de molished and his front door barricaded with the rubbish. On Bridge Bow ono house, occupied by some colored people, hod its roof crushed by a falling tree. Here tho damago ends till wo reach Central City Pork, where wo find half a dozen of those tall pines outsido prostra ted, nearly all tho Park fence down, and somo twenty-five or thirty trees on the inside either uprooted or broken off. No damage was done to any of tho Park buildings, except the judges* stand,which was turned over upon tho race track, and badly wrecked. From tho Pork onward,' in an easterly direction, as far os tho oyo could reach, tho track of tho cyclone was marked out by fallen trees. AU tho casualties above enumerated Uo in the track of tho cyclone; b*t do not nearly includo all the damage that was done in tho city. For instance tho warehouse of CampbcU A Jones was un roofed. Tho roof of tho Spottswood IIo- tol was badly damaged. Ono chimney of the Brown House was blown down upon tho roof. Tbo roof of Dr. Baxter’s now building received somo injury. The trees in front of tbo First National Bonk were blown down. Many signs wero scattered about in various parts of the city, all going to Show that tho wind was very general. IVo think tho general damage was dono by a heavy gale which began to blow about threo o'clock in tho morning, and continued until daylight. This gale was a very heavy one, and calculated to lift any tin roof under which it could pene trate. It blow down signs and awnings at a fearful rato, and, among other dam ages, smashed one of tho handsome plate glass windows in front of Brown & Co.’s book store. It is fortunate that no rain feU during tho storm, or tho damage would have been very much greater. A most remarkable thing connected with tho wholo terror is, that, as far as we have been able to asdbrtoin, no serious personal injury was sustained by any ono. INCIDXMTS or TUX STOOil. A most interesting chapter could bo made of tho incidents connected with this stonn if wo hsd only tho time to col lect and write them, which wo hare not. Wo will mention a few. A gentleman who looked out while the storm was at its height, said he could sec by tho flashes of lightning that the wholo atmosphere was filled with flying mis siles, snch os shingles, signs, cotton, sticks, bricks and everything else that the wind could pick up or throw down. Mr. O. F. Adatfls, being unaware that his front stops had been blown down started to go to his front yard and fell among the wreck, a distance of somo ten or twclvo feet, stunning and bruising himself considerably. Frank Thwcatt, an old and trusty ser vant of Messrs. Hardeman & Sparks, avJaked by tho storm, and got up and went to the warehouse, where ho remained tho balance of tho night, for fear some accident should happen to the immense amount of cotton stored there. A negro house on Magnolia street was removed soveral feet from its oundation without awakening its inmates. When they were awakened yesterday morning they were surprised to find a number of bricks in bed with them, and that their habitation .had been removed without their knowledge or consent, or any legal process. Officer Wryo was prostrated by the wind on Cotton avenue and thrown vio lently against a building, and is satisfied that he only prevented himself from be ing blown down the street by holding fast to the door-facing. Officer Roberts asserts that he was lifted several feet in tho air. He fell on E. J. Johston’s corner, and managed to moor himself by holding fast to the iron railing in front of that building. Jury Olitalnrri amt Ike Tcsttuauny Bun. The case of L. B. Pike, charged with the minder of C.14-1 K. lti,-r. came up lie- tore tbe Superior Court yesterday- The State was repr.--ented by Solicitor-Gen eral C. U. Harris. Co'.on l W. A. Lofton and Messrs. Blount defence was conducted by Colonels John B. Weems and Sam. Hall. The morning session of the court wa3 wholly occupied in making up a jury. Comparatively little difficulty was ex perienced, however, in obtaining a jury, as the panel was full when the hour ar rived for taking a recess for dinner. The following named persons constitute the jury: W. F. Horne, Jacob Ibid, W. H. Parker, Jero Fuss. Geo. P. Bond. T. J. Lane, J. W. Skipper. F. B. Beville. Chaa. Craft (colored). C. D. Findlay, Elihu Price and lames Meara. At three o'clock the court met and tho testimony was begun by the State. Tho following ft substantially the testimony as taken yesterday afternoon: Jacob Russell, sworn—I was present when Baer was killed. Mr. Pike killed him. (Identifies prisoner.) Tho killing occurred on the lffth of August, at En- gleke’s saloon, below tbe Lanier House. I was in Englekc's saloon, standing at the counter with three other men, besides Baer. Baer wns with us. The men were the two Englekes, Hart wick and Baer. Piko come in with another gentleman, and called for some beer. They didn't drink the beer. Mr. Pike called Mr. Baer aside. They talked together a few minutes as near as I can remember, and then I heard the report of a pistol. I looked around and saw Mr. Pike with a pistol pointing toward Mr. Baer and Mr. Baer falling down. [D. C. Garrett was brought in, but witness was not able to identify him as the man who was with Pike.] ThenI left the roomand didn’t see anything else. About 10 or 15 min utes I went in and saw Baer lying dead. I saw the wound. Dr. Fitzgerald was in there examining the wound. Tho wound was on the left breast. Looked like quite a small wound. ELppose it was done by a small ball. I oclieve it was about noon, or between 11 and 12 o'clock, as near as I remember. I saw no weapon in Baer's hand. 1 don't know what L. stands for in Pike’s name. I was stand ing about 5 or 6 steps from the parties when the killing took place. Pike just laid his hand |on Baer’s coat and asked him to step aside. Tbe pistol was found a few minutes after—two or three min utes, as near as I can remember. I looked around as quick os I heard tho pistol fire, and then went instantly out of the build ing. Cross-examined—I think I have given the names of all the persons in tho saloon at the time. I was talking with Engelke, Baer and Hardwick. We wore standing near the front door and against the coun ter. Pike had not been in the saloon long when ho called Baer aside. While Engelke was drawing tho beer ho called him aside. I don’t remember whether Pike or Baer spoke first I think Piko told Baer I10 wanted to see him, when he took him by tbe coat I don't remember what Pike said to Baer. I think he said 'I want to see you.” He took him by the coat in a gentle manner. They went to the opposite corner of the room from us. After Baer and Piko stepped aside, I and tho others continued the conversa tion. W. G. Engelke and Hardwick wero with me. A- Engelke was drawing tho beer. Piko and Baer talked together a minute or two. Mrs. Pike. I told her I would tell what 1 knew about the case when I was sworn. Mr. Pike was boarding at the Gillespie House before Mrs. Pike came to Matron. I don't know who else were bearding there. I Went to Nelson's corner, stayed there about s minute and then walked right back, meeting with Grace on th. Ba-dtreet—When Mrs. Pike was stand- Hird.-inun.

(Points out Mrs. Pike.) She walked over to tlie Brown House and inquired of tho watch man where she could find her husband, Mr. Pike. It was about 5 minutes after 11, directly after tho Savannah train came in. Tho watchman told her Mr. Piko didn’t stop there. I told her I was going by the hotel where her husband •stopped and I would show her tho way there. Sho thanked me veiy kindly if ” would do so. I went with her to Brown' hotel, on Mulbeny street, opposite tho Lanier House. I told her I would go up stairs and sec if Mr. Piko in. Mr. Baer 'got in the door ah I started up the steps. He wanted to know who I was looking for. I remarked was looking for Mr. Pike. His wife wanted to see him. His remarks were that Mr. Pike was not there and was not Lending tiler.—that K' hadn’t Wn town in six weeks. I remarked to him that I had seen him on a Thursday, with Mr. Bcsore, not to dispute his word. He turned to Mrs. Pike then and told her that he would tako her to where she could find her husband. She thanked him kindly, if ho would do so. As ho turned off ho said, "I will excuse you darkys.” I stood there then about fivo minutes talking to Clod George. ■ walked on behind Mr. Baer and Mrs. Pike, and got to the Spottswood Hotel. He left her standing on tho sidewalk in front of the hotel while ho went in. Ho came ont and went in the direction of tho Brown House. I followed along behind them, They turned the comer of the Brown House, and went on down to Nelson’i comer. There I lost sight of them. Nel son's homo is right across from ArtopoT marble-yard, on the comer of Third and Plum streets. I returned then in front of the Brown House, meeting Officer Grace. I asked him if ho had seen any thing of a lady and gentleman. Ho said no, he hadn’t. Grace and myself were in front of the Brown House, sitting on tho railing. Across tho street were Mr. Baer and Mrs. Pike, near the car- shed, talking. They came, across to Brown's Hotel, Baer leaving her on the sidewalk while ho went into the hotel.
