A New York dispatch of Thursday says ( a frightful accident took place that mom- i ingonthc Eric Railroad, between Allen- ) daie and II,hokus. Over a dozen mangled i bodies on the track attested the neglect of j some one who should have given warning. A gang of Italian laborers were blasting : v>u rauroau near a sunup ? c .uum three-quarters nf a iafie above Hohokus. ; The Chicago Express. which was due the '< hour before, had not arrived. and these; men, "hose forerrau should have given & I warning whistle v. hen the train was ap-! proacning the curve, were busy at work i t neonscions of the terrible fate iu store for j tbem.

Tito shrieks oi' the victims were heartrending, r.nd when the train passed the track presented the sickening sight of being covered with mangled bodies, the rails being spattered with blood, and ragged iiesh and detached limbs being scattered in all directions. Some of the bodies were mutilated beyond description and crushed j out of all semblance of humanity. Death j must have come to most oi the victims in-1 stantly, but some appeared to be yet quiver- j iag and life ebbing away when the train j slowed-up. Another account of the terrible accident; says that about 100 Italians were at work | on the road-bed when the traia came along, j and the workmen stepped on the other j track to allow it to pass, but jus: then the !

Looking hack, they saw the uninjured Italians acting like maniacs. They were yelling, gesticulating and tearing their clothes. Son;e were kneeling and others : dashing about the middle of the ghastly j pile of mangkd bodies.

He; identified the men by means of their num-! bers, which arc written on slips and carried ' by the men in little tin boxes.

Visiting the Xiome of His Boyhood, i Fayettf.vill's. X. Y., July 10.?This ! beautiful little viliage, the boyhood home of G rover Cleveland, was to-day brilliautly decorated with national colors and insignia of popular greeting to the republic's President. The^ large "delegations from Syracuse and adj iccnt villages and towns came in during the forenoon and the village streets were filled with curious crowds. Residences and business places were profusely decorated. Mr. Cleveland's home, the schoolhouse and academy which he attended were suitably decorated, also the plain homestead of Mrs. Hoyt, the Presi-1 dent's sister. The Presidential party, including Mr. ! and Mrs. Cleveland, and Secretary and J Mrs. Fairchild, drove herefrom Casenom, ! leisurely making a two hours' ride through i the beautiful region. They reached here I shortly before noon, driving through the multitude in the main street to Mrs. lloyt's residence. A committee of eld acquaintances received and escorted the President. The large delegation of Syracusians in carriage and on horseback was drawn up near the Hoyt residence and the party passed through the lines. A public reception .took place an hour later in Clinton Park, -where 4 the President and Mrs. Cleveland were escorted "by a proccssioa, headed by the I Syracuse p'^icc and followed by about 100 ? citizens of Fayetteville and the village au- j thorities. Howard H. Edwards, his boyhood com- > panion, made a brief address of . welcome, j The President, en being introduced to the j large assemblage, made acknowledgment \ by a foirnal bow and a brief speech, in . which he referred to the scenes of his boy-1 hood. Then he asd 3Irs. Cleveland stepped | from the top of the platform, and for two j hours received the salutations of the peo- i pie. Alter casing witn Mrs. lioyt, at about 3 o'clock the parly started on their way back to Cazenovia, and at Manhuer were" the recipients of a brief and cordial reception from the people of that pi act-.

A TTrnrppflinf? that -was new. but anna rently good lav,- and good policy, was had last week before Judge Pressley. Somedays ago the attorneys for 3Ir. George Johnstone, in investigating son-.e rumored threats made by John L>. Jones, asked Mr. Yv. H. Hunt, 3r., privately, if he had heard the deceased use threats. He replied that he had not. He was then asked if he had heard anyone say the deceased used threats. He replied that he had; but when further questioned as to his informant, he dec lined to answer on the ground that the informs. tion was given him in confidence, and to reveal the source information of his information would be a breach of confidence. The attorneys then obtained from Judge rressiey a rule against jir. riunt requiring Jiim to show cause why he shouid not disclose the person's name. Before return was made to the rule, 3Ir. S. A. Boozer came forward voluntarily and acknowledged to the attorneys that he was the person, and expressed his willingness to "tell them ail he knew in the case; and this settled the matter.?Neicberry Observer.

Present Pent. fFroin the lialtiraore Sun.) 3Ir. Povvderly, General Master Workman j >f the Knights of Labor, defies that he : means to resign his position at the Minne- j tpolis convention, which is to meet in j October. If he should lw led to do so; it; is only fair to say that the organization i will lose no* only an able executive and ad-! micistrative head, but also a man whose j i/Vuagx *mu*V iciiut'iciw v?v> -w to restrain the ardor of the rasher members have given him a high place in the confidence of the Knights, lie has made some serious mistakes, but his general policy has conduced to 4he good of the order, and if he has committed him-elf to the defense of some acts that were not really defensible, the enormous pressure brought to bear upon him by a huge and not always harmonious body of men less rellcctive than himself must be fairly taken into account The rapidity with which the order of the Knights of Labor has grown to vast proportions has let into its numerous branches many uicb UI extruaju vi?v>? ?.uu u^iv i peatedly sought, and sometimes success-' fully, to override tlie provisions of the con-; siitution framed for the governing of all. ! It is no light matter, even with the assist-! Knee of a general executive board com- j posed cf some oUlie most intelligent mem-; bers of the order, to exercise a controlling i authority over such a mass of workingmen, j formed of heterogeneous materials and j swayed by diverse interests. Mr. Powderly j discovered this at the Richmond convcn | tion, where objections to his rule found in ; some cases strong utterance, and where j the resolutions olfer- d ended in compro- i misc-s that did not strengthen the order, j At that convention. to sememe controversy, j Mr. Powderly said frankly that, "if the] order did not want liim to bold bis position j be "was ready to resign at once." In" the ! end pacific counsels prevailed, and he was j re-elected. The situation has become still j more strained since then, and it seemed, j from his specch in Boston last June, and ! his still more recent and emphatic declara-, ticMs on his return to Philadelphia, that he ; had definitely made up his mind to retire, j He spoke of "the distress he sutlers be-! cause of the dissensions in the order, the i misrepresentations and false? accusations' which, he claims, are mide against him, j and, lastly, his desire for privacy and rest." j That he should be worn out, "mentally ! and physically," as his friends declare him j to be, by the strifes and antagonisms that ; beset him, as well as by the multifarious duties of his cilice, is what might reasonably be expected from a man in his position. The trades-unions have set themselves up in antagonism, and some of them whose members had joined the order have with- j drawn from it. The inherent weakness of the order is that* there is no power lodged anywhere to enforce discipline, no general assent given to the provisions of the constitution intended to enforce the dccrecs of | the General Master "Workman and his ex-; ecutive board. If such decrees are issued ; they are, in many casus, resisted, and if an ! attempt is made to enforce them the rn;d-! contents desert the order and form an in-! dependent organization. It is this lack of cohesiveness in it-" constituent parts that is constantly threatening the order with disintegration. and although its members are ?-? wnll + 1 r\ i hn wii'n nrwl dUJLl UULUaLU^ rtUi iv/^Viuwi i~. cuv c^v*. in the union of their diverse forces are capable, when standing shoulder io shoulder, to -wield an immense power in maintaining the legitimate rights, of the workingmen. that power cannot be cifeclively applied when, as ?<Ir. Powderiy complains, there are serious dissensions in the order, and the chief they have chosen, instead of being able to command obedience, is made the target against which bitter epithets and annoying accusations are constantly being hurled. Mr. Carielon, one of the general executive board, in speaking on the subiect cf }Ir. Powderiy s resigna- j tion, remarked that such an event "could only be contemplated with a sense of sorrow find pain that there should be any need ' for a successor to Mr. Powderly, and who-! ever does take up the position must take it; as the hardest task that could come to any-: body in the world, and should feel that no i other man than Powderly can ever expect! to perform the work of the position acceptably to the general order." The reason he j gave for doubting whether any successor could do as efficient work was that, "by virtue of his remarkable personality. Mr. Powderly is actually the cc-utre and pivot around which moves the whole great army of the organization. A Sew Temperance Crusade. When the decree against drinking or selling intoxicating liquors was promulgated by the recent Plenary Council of the Roman Catholic Church at Ealti-1 irore, there was a good deal of curiosity "< It as to how much it meant and whether its enforcement would be insisted by the clergy. It is now evident that the dedecree is not to be treated as a dead letter. The crusade against Sunday liquor selling and Sunday drinking has been inaugarated in Baltimore, the home of Cardinal Gibbons, by several of the CathoHfi cilp.rerr of that citv. and it is said to Oi/ ' * ' I have the active sympathy and support of the Cardinal himself. Father Edmund Didier, in his Sunday discourse in St. Vincent's Church, which is located in a portion of the city where there are a great number of saloons, read several extracts irom this decree, the i most important of which contained the following wise admonitions: "There is one way of profaning the Lord's Day which is so prolific of evii results that wc consider it our duty to utter against it our special condemnation. This is the practice of selling beer and other iiquors on Sunday, or of frequenting ? 1 - ~ - -V.'v ?rv * U fSV??3 TKlP J A . {AUMJUS to Ltd C tuv* iUC av/iu. AUW ^iiivi4\.L j lends, more than any other, to turn the day j of the Lord into a* caj' of dissipation; to ! use it as an occasion of breeding intemper j ance. While we hope that the Sunday j iaws on this point will not be relaxed, but j even more rigidly enforced, we implore all j Catholics, for the love of God aad of conn- j try, never to take part in such Sunday i traffic, nor to patronize or countenance it. j Artrl v.-r> nnt onlv direct th," attention of nil ! pastors to the repression of this abuse, but we also call upon tiiem to induce all of their flocks that may be engaged in the sale of liquor to abandon, as soon as they can, the dangerous traffic, and to embrace a more becoming way of making a living. "And hence it behooves us to remind our Torkingmen?the bone aicd sinew of the people, and the specially beloved children of the chu:ch?that if they wish to observe Sunday us they ought they must keep away from drinking places Saturday night; carry your wages home to your families, where j they rightfully belong; turn a deaf ear. j therefor^, to every temptation, and then Sunday will be a bright day for all the family." The Philadelphia Times very justly thinks that if ail the Catholic clergymen in the country will follow the example of Father Didler and cnforce this decree among their respective flocks, they will do more to abolish poverty than all the anti-poverty societies that can be organized by Dr. IVicGljnn and Henry George i i;i s. lifetime. This inteidiction is aimed I it all excessive drinking, whether on Sunday or any other day. A general movement all over the country, on the .me indicated by Father Didier, will do much good, and it is to be hoped that it trill be undertaken. More can be done .n a practical way for the cause of temperance by a movement of this kind ' "han can be done by legislation.

The other day a New York maiden went r lo Philadelphia, and was taken by a young r man to the opera, after which liicy went ; to take some slight refreshment.

Mrs. Gunter, a most respectable old widow lady, was found dead in the woods near her home, four miles from Batesburg, S. C., oti Tuesday.

The dog was followed to Li".tie river where he was found to have inserted his tusks into a cow and was killed. Mr. Phillip Dunn, one of Union's wealthiest citizens, was robbed Wednesday night of between two. and three hundred dollars.

A Growing Commercial Evil. Dating ahead is commercially a growing evil. It pervades every department of trade. The system extends from the importer and manufacturer down to the smallest retailer. All want an extra dating. If one firm refuses the favor another will grant it, and the result is the unwilling firms are forced into it or lose their trade. It is virtually going back to the old system of six months credit but without the safeguard then prevailing of giving notes for merchandise. Merchants are kept in business, who, if they were compelled to pay their bills promptly, would at once fail for want of actual capital. The fictitious j credit they possess through an extra iatin?'s their on^J stoc^ 111 trade. This class of dealers is not conGncd to uny one section or community; tiiey :xist everywhere. Credit is cheap, be;au*c in tlie anxiety to push trade almost every man can get trusted. D.-ting ahead" is the one element of danger :o our business prosperity. Is it not .veil, therefore, to call attention to it at i period when the least harm can be lone to all interests, because of the renerai prosperity now prevailing.'' ilierc is no business disruption or disurbnnce nor sign of any. While all is tinning smooth is the best time to renorc erils that in less prosperous sea;on* would lead to sudden disaster.? Dry Goods Chroniclc. Tlic Fuel of the Faturo.
