NO DANGER OF COLLISION The Report That an Alarm Was Giver, ENTIRELY MISLEADING, The First Baptist Sunday School Picnic at Chickamauga Was a Most enjoyable Affair The report published in a morn ing paper, that coming near a col lission on the C. R. &C. R. R., yesterday between the train which took the First Baptist Sunday Schcol and a freight train, is en tirely untrue. The two ’rains met just above Trion, at their usual place for pass iug laid down on the schedule both trains were on time, while the passenger had to run close to it so as to back on a side track to let the freight pass, this may have caused some excitable person on the train to think that the meeting may have been accidental and cir culated the report to that effect. The picnic of the First Baptist Sunday School to Chickamauga yesterday was a very pleasant af fair without the slightest accident. It carried up six cars full to over flowing making but cne stop to take on passenger viz : at Summer ville. One car had been reserved for them, It was a 1 success, financially having made enough to pay for the train, so as not to be at any ex pence to the school. There was the greatest abundance to eat, and it was shared liberally to all present. The spring and grounds were free to all. The hotel was closed to the crowd as some former crowds had annoyed the boarders at the hotel.

Madrid, Juno 9. —The whole country is stupefied by the extra ordinary solution of the crisis, which was called by the resigna tion of tne Cabinet and the subse quent recall of it by the Queen. The liberal feeling is violent against Senor Sagasta. The majority of the Leiberals call him a traitor, accusing him of secretly refusing the Queen Regent’s request to ac cept office.
