THE ACCIDENT ON THE It
Additional Particulars.
Mention was made in onr i -sue yes
terday of an accident on the Bruns
wick Sc Albany railroad Monday night,
but then were some inaccuracies in the
report as given us. Yesterday we met
Mr. J. S. Russell, the Express Messen
ger, who was on the train at the
time of (the accident. He states
that the baggage car jumped the Crack
some two hundred yards beyond the
bridge, and that the trouble was not
discovered in time to prevent running
into the bridge in the disabled condi
tion. Alter running about twenty
feet upon the bridge the tracks
fell, the forward end of the
hergage car was palled oat entirely by
the engine and freight can ahead, and
the two passenger cart were thrown
into the river below. It was therefore
no fault of the bridge. The engine
and freight ears passed over safely.
There were several passengers on
hoatd, and all went down; also conduc
tor Crovatt, Messenger Russell and the
mail agent. Nobody was seriously
hurt, strange to sir. Young Brace, of
Brun-wick, a y ung ni.xn by the name
of Kries. Conductor Crovatt and Mes
senger Uussell were slightly cut and
bruised.
The cars still lie in the river. They
are bidir damaged, but the woikshen
ire now busy in an attempt to raise the
wreck. No train has passed over the
bridge since, but passengers, mails and (
express are transfered from one train to
the other, and it is probable this sched
ule will continue for several days.

Reported Failure.
It has been currently reported in this
-ity for three d iy* past that the linn of
Welch, Wight, Wilson Sc Co, of Chi-
mgn, had failed or suspended business.
It is well-known to many of our read-
•rs that the husinc-s of the firm baa
ncen under the management of Cm(.t
K L. Wight, who withdrew from
Welch A Bacon and went to Chicago
ast fall. The firm of Welch, Wight,
Wilsun Sc Co, wav organized last fall
-or the purpose of packing fresh meats
under a process discovered by Dr.
-cholley, att uncle of Capt. Wight.
The works of the linn arc at Chirago,
and many of the friend* of Capt.
Wight, will be surprised to hear of
this disaster for the rumor was rife in
this city about the time of. Welch A
Bacon's failure, in December last that
the Captain had “atrack a Buannz*'’ in
his new business in the Northwest.
We know nothing of the particulars
of this failure. We do not know, in
fact, that there ha« really been a failure.
It i* certainly true, however, that the
business of the firm of Welch, Wight,
Wilson A Co, of Chicago has been sus
pended, and we give the reported fail
ure as a mere ranter, and for what it is
worth as such.

They preach three hundred or more
sermons per aunnm—at least two in
every county—to large and attentive
audiences, rut mainly to ‘-not less
than eighteen nor more than twen
ty-three” of the leading men of their
vicinage, who are eolemnly sworn
to make due presentments of all
person* violating this law w.tbin
their balllwisk. Notwithstanding
this body of men have alar-chamber
privileges, with the whole power of
the Stato to sustain and protect
them in the performance of a duty
to which they are Incited by their
interest in tho general welfare, aud
bound to diacharge-by the solemni
ty of a stringent oath, publicly ad
ministered, no good results are ac
complished. The pistol—five or
seven-shooter—self-cocking, nickel-
plated, or silver-mounted, often
does iu deadly work npon the court
house square, under the windows of
tha room to which tho Grand In
quest U deliberating, and, as it
were, in contemptuous defiance of
tho authority of the court while, in
iou t In nine cates out of ten
the victim will be found to be an
unarmed, law-abiding citixen, who,
for some fancied wrong or Insult,
has boon shot down in cold blood,
by an armed coward, who, but for
tba law in question, would not bave
the nerve to do the shooting.
Is it not time public opinion was
aroused and tha question asked, why
thi* law is so powerless to protect?
Is it not time those lo whom the
law-making power ia given thoutd
enquire if there ii no remedy for
tho evil which they can apply, siuce
the courts, hr scare-crow threats of
pains and penalties, bave proven
powerless to arrest It ? They are
the physicians who must lical the
disease* of the body politic, by the
enactment of wholesome laws and
the repeal of bad ones, or it mast
continue to suffer. The skilled dis
ciple of Esealapins, when ho find*
one remedy fails to reach the mala
dy with which his patient is afflict
ed, tries another, and another, until
the right one ia found. 8o It should
bo with onr legislators. It has not
yet been .fifty years since this law
first want upon our statute book.
It has had forty-three years of
faithfu. trial. That it has failed to
prevent that being done which it
prohibits, there can be no doubt. It
does much to prevent the exercise of
that healthy necessary parental ad
monition and control of father*, who
rely upon the law to prevent their
sons from carrying secreted arms in
stead of watching over their habits
and preventing It by the exercise of
home law, and Unis tho evil ia in-
created. That it doei much to on
courage cowards, cut-throat* and
thieve* to carry arm* I have no
doubt.. That it ties hand and foot,
on many occasions, the law-abiding,
moral and upright citizen and de
livers him over to the tender mer
cies of thoee asms oowards, cut
throats and thieves, no one ean de
ny. Every good citizen will cheer
fully admit that bloodshed would
bo lessfrequen*. if arms were not
carried about the person, whether
openly or concealed, simply for the
want of a tool to shed It with: at
any rato, It would not he so often
shed npon slight or no provocation
at all. If the law conld be enforced
—if it was obeyed by all— it would
be a good law. If the effect of the
law it to disarm the good, peace
able, faithful citixon, and to arm the
vicious, quarrelsome, thievish and
unprincipled, with whom he must
come lu contact in his daily busi
ness, if is a bad law. Judged by
this standard, this law whloh onr
legislators have taken so much pride
in; which our judges have given in
charge to juries so often; which our
courts have been so powerless to
enforce, is a bad law. Xerxes threw
his fetters into the sea and com
manded that it should be manacled
by them, bat it came back seething
and roaring its defiance to his Insane
threats at bis feet, threatening to
overwhelm him instead. Equally as
impotent to compel obedience to its
mandates has been tho law we are
now discussing. There is a certain
class of persons In every community
who will go armed; will carry
them in spite of law and ita remote
consequences. * They are carried
sometimes tuto the very presence of
the court, and into the room where
officials sit as public inquisitors,
after being sworn “to diligently in
quire and true presentments make”
of a eiim: of which they themselves
are guilty, while the oslh is on their

all. Detail carry arms that have
occasion or inclination to do so—in
any manner of any kind they
choose, without branding them as
felons; but hold them accountable
fur an improper or felonious use of
them. Homicidoa would occur lets
frequently, and so would robberi-s
and murders, for money or plunder.
Let one nation know that another is

with individual Whon all are
armed all are ou an equality—pre
pared alike for offense or defense,
or supposed^to he—quarrels are, too,
much less frequent, and collisions
scarcely ever occur, for when they
do then occur both sides are apt to
get hurt
The writer saw this exemplified
in Florida many yean ago, whilo it
was a Territory, ]recently acquired
from Spain. Like ail new countries,
it had scarcely any law hot public
opinion, enforced by the bowie
knife, pistol, rifle or stiletto. Every
man was expected to take care of
himself, and to. carry arms was the
rule,not the exception. It was not con
sidered respectable there for a
to entry his arms exposed, hence the
bo .vie, pistol or dirk was eoneealed.
He who raade{his appearance with
his arsenal in full view was looked
upon as a braggadocio or coward,
and was very apt to he drawn into
an altercation by the first daredevil
spirit be met, to prove his right to
a> outrage public sentiment. Bnt
each person know every other one
was armed, just at we know onr ac
quaintance has a pocket-knife, with
out seeing it, because it waa the cus
tom. Females were then treated
more respectfully in public; and in
a’l mixed assemblies than at the
present time. There is something
in the constant use and familiarity
with arms that infuses into the fron
tiersman a kind of chlvalrlo devo
tion to woman, and every man is
ready to defend; and protect her.
Men were mare courteous, kind and
guarded in their bearing towards
each other than now. No unarmed
man was in danger of being shot
down in cold blood by a cowardly
assassin then, (because he knew the
law had disarmed his victim) as is
often the case in this enlightened
day of stringent laws, unexecuted.
The nearest limb, and a short tight
rope performance would have been
the reward of the Slayer, and that
speedily. No amount of raouoy
could have bought a pardon or
created a saving sympathy; or cor
rupted courts and juries, as is too
often the case now. A fleet-footed
horse, and a long jump at the start,
was the only safe escape for the as
sassin, hence homicides were rare.
If a misunderstanding resalted in
a collision, each party wasted right
on his side—in appearance at least
—and the drawing of a weapon,
was generally proceeded or accom
panied by the admonitors “dofend
yourself!” t > which the reply, “1 am
unarmed,” would simply extort the
rejoinder, “then go and arm .your
self!” Unless friends intervened,
and brought about an adjustment
mutually satisfactory, tho mutter
was “settled” the next time they
met, but not in such a bungling
manner as to endanger anyone else
as is too often the case now.
Yon may say this was not an en
viable state of society; true, but it
was better, safer than to disarm
good men, and turn armed despera
does loose upon them as tho law
does. Don’t beg the question and
j it is not the law. It is the affect
of the lout, and for that the law mnst
be held responsible. Until yon
christianize and corelize man by
changing bis savage nature be will
carry arms^nd sometimes use them,
prohibitory fnlminatious to the con
trary notwithstanding.
If you tax pistols, bowie knives,
swords in canes, ever so heavy, will
that do any good? It will not. The
tax would only be paid by those
who are conscientious enough to
jpay it without a murmur, and only
add to the burdens of that class,
who almost alone sustain the gov
ernment. There wonld be a thous
and atffl one ways to evade it by
the class who now carry arms in
spite of the law. You could not
staletmanthip. Repeal your pro
hibition, and in one year homicides
would fall off fifty per cent.; the
e iwnrdly bully would join, the
j peace soricty because he would bo
j under a wholesome fear that the
| man ho wanted to slay, would be
1 also armed and might get the
••drop” on him instead.
Cain did not bave a five-shooter—
at Ieii«t tho account Is sil >nt as to
tho kind of wenpou ho used—yet lie
slew Abel, and the same spirit In
man wheu aroused to action, will
continue to slay until tho end of
time, if it has to u-e a b udgeou.
The pistol was invented lo protect
the week and fwbv again-t tlw
strong and egro—ivc. I: is a g.m.1
thing unlc-- improperly u«ed, ainl
that te not tlie fault of the inventor.
If Abel on that fatal occasion, had
boon provided with one, Cain might
nut hare been a murderer. Mau.r a
man’s life and property ha* bee ■
saved by them as well as lost, anil
taut ought to be put down on the
credit sidoof tho ledger in its favor.

It Is one of that clast of laws that

be so, and tho legislati/0 enactment
has not that universal'sentiment of
approval to uphold it that all such
laws must bave in order to be en

in thi* cosmopolitan day, it cannot
