THE BECENT BATLROAD DISASTER
CAOSE OF THE ACCIDENT-WONDERFUL
ESCAPE.-On Sunday morning last, we
paid a visit to tho scene of the recent
fatal disaster, on the Greenville and Co?
lumbia Bailroad ; and after a careful ex?
amination, in company with several ex?
perienced railroad men, unoonucctcd
with tho company, we are forced to the
conclusion that the accident resulted
from the breaking of a wheel on the
tender; and that the company ?9 not in
the least blameable. As the broken
tender fell upon tho trestle, it caught in
tho cross-ties, dragged and smashed the
timbers, and the cars crowding forward,
the whole structure gave way with a
sudden crash, precipitating a stock car,
(loaded with nineteen head of cattle,)
baggage and express car, second class and
first class passenger cars into the chasm.
The forward truck of ono of tho cew
first-class ooachos went over, and the end
of the car stuck into the ground ; but
owing to its great strength, it was only
partially broken, and remained wedged,
preventing the rear passenger car from
going over, and thus, doubtless, saving
the lives of many of the passengers. The
Budden jerk threw the locomotive off the
track just beyond thc trestle. Passen?
gers on board state that the train was
running at the ordinary speod, bofore
reaching thc trestle, and they feel posi?
tive, that speed was decreased. The
wood with which the trestle was built,
was examined and found in good order,
and all, with the exception of the broken
timbers, were used iu re-erecting tho
structure, though they havo on hand
large quantities of material, ns tho entire
road is being overhauled. Tho trestle
was over 100 feet in length auld about 25
feet high in the centre, It had been
overhauled last year, and new timbers
put in where it was deemed necessary.
Tho proof of its strength was the safe
passage of Hie locomotive--tho heaviest
portion ol the train-across the trestle,
and it was only thrown off by tho jar
or concussion of the falling train. An
old car belouging to tho South Carolina
Bailroad was smashed into thousands of
pieces. Tho damage has been repaired,
and trains DOW run straight through
without detention. There was actually
no interruption to passage, as there was
a transfer at the break. The officers of
the road havo been unremitting in their
attentions to the injured. i

AN ENGRAVING OF GENERAL BODERT E.
LEE.-Messrs. Bostwick & Winter, 177
West Fourth street, Cincinnati, have
placed upou our table a copy of their
engraving of General Bobert E. Leo.
The head is life size, aud is tho largest,
we believe, ever produced on a steel
plato. In tbe combination of artistic
and mechanical skill it has boen rarely
excelled. This engraving was under?
taken by Mr. Walters, under the aus?
pices of the American Art Union, and was
the object of long, assiduous labor, the
result of which is the best likeness of
the illustrious Confederate chief that we
have ever seen. Tho artist has succeeded
in catching that peculiarity iu expression
which all who have ever seen Gen. Leo
will not fail to recognize. Tho engrav?
ing is a beautiful work of art-woll
worthy a placo in every household. It
is sold only by subscription. Experi?
enced agents are wanted by the publish?
ers. Mr. W. M. Bostwick, one of the
members of tho firm, is at the Nickarson
House.

Interesting Kai opean Intelligence.
LONDON, November 12.-Bismarck has
issued a circular to thc representatives
of North Germany in foreign Stntes,
giving his version of the late negotiations
for au armistice. The appointment of
such a man as Thiers, by the Freuch, to
couduct negotiations, a man of such
wide experience, had ?xcited hopes of
propositions that might be successful.
King William was even more eager for
peace than Thiers. Bismarck proposed
a truce for four weeks, the position of
the respective armies, meanwhile, to be
fixed, in order that elections might be
held throughout France. Tho only
effect of this truco on the French side
would have been tho stoppage of the
waste of ammunition from their forts.
Thiers regretted that th? re-victualing of
Paris was not provided for, saying it
was au indispensable condition of the
proposed armistice. This absurd de
maud to go back two months in the
prosecution bf tho war, it was impossi?
ble to allow. Subsequently, an offer for
a short truce was made. Thiers report?
ed this to the members of tho Provi
siounl Government, by whom it was re?
jected. The inference is, that tho
French Government dared not consult
the people, and made advances looking
to .peace ouly, in order to satisfy and
quiet the neutral powers.
The following despatch of tho World's
correspondent at Tours, on the 8th in?
stant, which was delayed iu its transmis?
sion, gives the particulars of tho begin?
ning of the engagement, which resulted
in a victory for tho army of tho Loire:
A great battle is being fought to-day be?
tween Mer and Bemgeucy. The affair
began yesterday with un engagement be?
tween the advanced guards on thc bor?
ders of the forest of Marchenoir. The
French wore attacked at ll o'clock in the
morning by a Prussian column, consist?
ing of two battalions of infantry, 1,500
stroug, of cavalry aud ten guns. The
French occupied a line from Persey lo
St. Laurent Des Bois. At noon a bat?
talion of Chasseurs-a-Pied debouched
from St. Laurent and drove back the
Prussians between Valbeno ond Villeci
clair. The Frenoh cavalry then vigor?
ously attempted to turn the flank of the
Prussians, who, ho*vever, managed to
effect a retreat in tho direction of Chateau
Neuf, leaving their dead and wounded
on the field, among whom were twenty
officers and many prisoners taken. All
this happened prior to a more decisive
engagement, which took place on the
following day.
A special despatch to the World's
bureau from Tours, dated to-day, says
tho whole loss of tho Bavarians in tho
battles of the 9th and 10th is 3,140
men in killed, wouuded and prisoners.
Yonder Tann's effective force on tho
moruiug of tho 11th was 20,000 mon.
Ho was then at Tonry, twenty-five miles
North of Orleans, where ho was joined
by General Wittich and Princo Albrecht,
who, with ono division of infantry and
ono of cavalry, 12,000 men strong,
marched from Charles to his aid. On
tho evening of tho 11th, he was further
reinforced by tho Duke of Mecklenburg
with ?a corp composed of 23,000 of all.
Thia will give Germana, ntTottrv, a force
of 56,000.
General D'Au relics employed in all
engagements, up to tho 0th and 10th, u
force of 75,000 mon. To-day, he hus
not brought the sumo forco into action,
but will bring up a forco of IUD,000
strong, holding 50,000 in reserve. Ho
intends to attack tho Germains at Tours,
to-day, or on Sunday, The French army
is elated at tho victory, and is anxious
for attack. Tho Government at Tours
believes Prince Frederick Charles is ad?
vancing on Commeroy, but will not bo
able to effect his junction with Yonder
Tun ii b e fore the 16th. It has also received
very important information from Bouens
ana Amiens, about Bourbaki's army.
Tho Frenoh have concentrated a large
forco at Beauvais and G i so rs, their Hue

A World correspondent, writing from
Versailles on the 8th, says: "No bom?
bardment of Paris will .take placo for' a
long time yet, if ever. The hopo now ia
that the city will be starved oat. The
troth seems to be that the constant and
accurate fire from the French forts have
greatly embarrassed and retarded Ger?
man operations, and rendered mnoh of
thoir work nssless."
A World special from London, of the
12th, says the whole tido of popular feel?
ing now in England is running strongly
in favor of the French. Even the Tunes,
fooling the influence, bas changed its
tone, and now urg09 Germany to make
peace and to withdraw from France while
she may do so with safety. This feeling
?B partially due to the horror excited by
the barbarous and wholly unjustifiable
conduct of the Prussians in attempting
to suppress popnlar resistance in France,
and portly to the rapidly growing con?
viction that England will be tho next
victim of German ambition.
The speech of Lord Chief Baron the
other day, which declared that Austria
would lio prostrate before Germany; that
Bussln will bo compelled to barter hei
Baltio ports for Constantinople; and that
England, being only safe so long as she
romains mistress of the seas, most ara
herself for a desperate strngglo, has pro
duced great alarm and dismay, and t
hearty wish for the repulso of the Ger
mans aud triumph of the French.

The first day tho battle became general
soon after the attack was made. Gun
Fallieres, who had command of on
wing of the French army, made a decid
ed success from tho start. The Prus
sinus were in strong position. Falliere
took veteran troops and stormed th
Prussians, driving them beforo him, am
capturing many prisoners and carrying
position. So marked was his victory
, that Palidines warmly praised his coo
duct. Gardes Mobiles, from tho depart
ment of Loire-etehor, who wero uude

The Moniteur to-day has an editori:

nothing to gain in this war, but everj
thing to lose from the grasping ambitio
of Prussia, should make so readily suer
