.r<^pecialto the Phoenix.] Railroad Accident. The following despatch has been far niahed ne.by Mr. S. C. Potts, ea opera? tor of the Western Union Telegraph Company, who repaired to the scene of the disaster, tapped the wire, and promptly reported the details: AT THE WRECK ,%TEAR GRIST DEPOT, ' W.t O. & A*. R. R., May 30-4 P. M. The express train bound for Wilming? ton ran off the track between Marion and Mullins, yesterday afternoon, and no one waa hurt. The accommodation train, bound for Gol a nubia, went as far as the wreck, transferred baggage and passengers, and was returning to Wil? mington, when, within one and a half miles South of Grist's Depot, the tender (the whole train was running backwards) mounted a rail, and the engine and the first, second and third class oars were piled upon each other, the first and se? cond olass oars telescoping, making a perfeot ohaos. The only wonder is that there were no lives lost. There were five passengers dangerously wounded and several slightly. Mr. Carpenter, wife and child, and Miss Emily Black, (daughter of Col. H. M. Black, Com? mandant of the Post of Columbia,) ac? companying them, all from Oolumbia, S. j G., were ia the sleeping car, and were uninjured; but a maid servant, who also accompanied Mr. Carpenter's family, received dangerous injuries in the arm, side and hip; also,.a young colored man, named Ganar Lowndes, from Oolumbia, waa severely injured. Every kindness was shown to the wounded, both black and white. They left here early this morning, on an extra train, for Wil? mington. Every comfort possible was provided for them. A track is being laid around the wreck, which we hope will be completed in time for the regular trains to pass to-night. Foreign A ?Vil rc. MADRID, May 80.-At the session of the Cortea, to-day. Admiral Topete, President of the Gounod, stated that the Ministry recognized the validity of the Constitution, medie by Marshal Serraoo with the rebels in Biscay, pardoning those who voluntarily surrendered, and* requested members of the Opposition not to interpellate the Government rela? tive thereto. Upon this announcement, Zorrilla arose and moved a vote of cen? sare apon Serrano. It is said this ac? tion of Zorrilla will cause Marshal Ser? raoo to resiga his command. Notwith? standing the request of Admiral Topete in the Cortes, that the opposition should refrain from taking any notion relative to aa endorsement by the Goverament of the coarse pursued by Marshal Ser? rano, hardly bad the excitement, whioh was caused by the introduction of Senor Zorrilla's motion died away, when Senor Murtoa arose, and prooeeded to question the Government. The Presi? dent of the Cortes refused to answer. Senor Murtoa insisted upon his question, when the President declared that the ac? tion of the deputy was insulting to him, and left the chamber. Great confusion followed the retirement of the President. The tumult in the chamber became gene? ral, and amid the din of voices no deputy could be plainly heard. American Intelligence. DETROIT, May 30.-The Assembly meets' in Baltimore next year. BOSTON, May 30.- A meeting of the Labor Reform Convention was large and enthusiastic. The New York delegation reported the eight hour strike in their city almost a complete success, and urged a strike here. Working long days ' was ' crushing to the intelligence pf the people, and they thought the working? men should join temp?rance.sooieties, save money, and fight the question. CINCINNATI, May 30.-The German Tailors' Union, composed of 180 boss tailors, who employ 1,800 women and girls, and take work from the large clothing houses, struck to-day for twoa ty-fi ve cents increase of wages. Twee ty moro bosses, ia Newport and Covington, Ey., employing 400 girls, will strike to? morrow, It is reported other bosses not in the nnioa will join the strike. AUGUSTA, GA., May 30.-A'larga meet? ing of the Democrats of Richmond County unanimously adopted resolutions favoring an alliance with any party whioh will seouie local self-government, subordination of the military to oivil authority, the preservation unimpaired of habeas corpus, and checking of the centralizing tendencies of the Federal Government. That all other subjects of political contention are insignificant in comparison with these, and that no dio tate of prinoiple or honor forbids an al? liance of the Demooratio party with other assailants of the common enemy, or requires the Democratic party to pre? fer certain defeat to partial victory. This ia the first important Democratic meeting in Georgia, and is regarded as an index of popular opinion in the State. NEW ORL?ANS, May, 29.- Pinohbaok's Republican Gonvention nominated War moth for Governor and Pinohback for Lieutenant-Governor, and passed a reso? lution endorsing the administration of Watmoth. Adjourned, to meet on the 19th of June, at Baton Roago. After ' adjournment, Pinohbuok made a speech; stating that he would Support the nomi? nees pf Philadelphia at all hazards. NEW YOBK, May 30.-James Gordon Bennett is in a very dangerous condi? tion. Sacrament for the dying was ad? ministered to bim yesterday, and hit Son and daughter, who ate in Europe, telegraphed for. D. N. JBotasse, the Greek Consul al this port, published a card this morning, stating that the report that seven Greek criminals had been shipped for tim country, is a monstrous fabrication. WASHINGTON, May 80.-The Senate finished the internal revenue bill. The tax on whiskey remains at seventy oeub per gallon, but on tobacco a uniform tai of twenty-four cents por pound wai agreed on; being an increase of foor cents over the House rate. Export bonded warehouses for tobacco .were abolished, bat all tobacco now in bond is allowed to remain for twelve mdnths, though no new entries are allowable. . lu the House, Butler renewed ' his amendment to force the bill. The Speaker ruled the privilege of a report at any time bj the Outrage Committee as lapsed, when any member moved a sus? pension of the rules. This almost cer? tainly excludes all violent partisan legis? lation this 8eaaiou. The Honse ad? journed, upon Butler's motion/ The Senate is considering the rela? tions between labor and capital, with a prospect that the whole subject will be dropped. MEMPHIS, May 80.-The statement telegraphed from Nashville, that Jeffer? son Davis had written a letter to Wade Hampton, favoring the elcotioo of Gree? ley, aud saying the Demoorats would act unwisely in making a nomination, is un? true. Davis states that ho has expressed no opinion in the matter. WASHINGTON, May 80-Evening.-No department business to-day. Heavy rains interfered with tho decorations here and Northward. No outrages re? ported, and but little general interest manifested. In the Sennte, Scott, from the select oommittee on Southern outrages, re? ported bills to amend the enforcement and the supplementary oivil rights bill, which were read the first time. Bayard objected to the second reading of the bills. He questioned the propriety of the reference of these bills to this oom? mittee, whioh had been originated for a special purpose, and certainly not to take cognizance of snoh matters as were involved in these two bills. He (Mr. ?B.) did not even know that these bills had been referred to the oommittee until it met yesterday. The proper reference for these bills was to the Judiciary Oom? mittee. The Vioe-Prosideat stated that .t was perfeotly competent for the Se? nate to refer bills to any oommittee. Kellogg called np the House bill regard? ing quarantine regulations on the Gull and Atlantio coasts, whioh passed, with the Senate amendments, and goes back to the House. The House passed the Senate bill ex tending tbe Act of June 22, 1860, in re latiou to the confirmation of private land claims in Florida, Louisiana anc Missouri, with an amendment, pr?par?e by Mr. Sheldon, authorizing the con firmation of ?li claims on proof of pos sessiou by the claimants, and those fron whom they derive title, since the cossioi i to the United States of the Territories out of whioh said States were formed The extension is for three years, and it i believed that under- the Act, all claim may be easily and satisfactorily settled Van Trump, rising to a personal expia nation, in respect to a charge against bi official conduot, as a number of th sub-committee iu the Ku Klux investi gatton, sent to the Clerk's deek and ha read an article from the Columbia, E 0., Union, quoting from the Bal ti mor American, to the effect that Van Trum had declined examining an import?t witness, a distinguished Demucrati lawyer, who knew and could disclose to much of the Ku Klux history. He d< nounoed the statement as false in ever particular. Stevenson, another meatbi of the same sub-committe, also mac some remarks on the subjeot, and in r ply to Van Trump, he bore testimony t the great zeal, activity and energy e: hibited by his colleague, and to h honorable and high-minded oouduct i that whole matter. Poland, Chairan of the Ka Klux Committee, also mai some remarks, parti aularly ia contradi tioa of a statement by Van Trump, th Senator Scott had a special spy atoi with -the sub-committee. Butler, Massachusetts, inquired of the Speak whether there was any possibility compelling a vote on the enforceme bill, so long UB motious to suspend t rules were interposed. The Speaker i plied that there wus not.

This circumstance, with the consideration tbat she is a person of weak intellect, has procured over 1,200 signatures to a petition, whioh sets forth thut hor death, instead of vindicating justice, "would shock the moral sense of the whole community." Au inquisition will probably be ordered. DIVORCE OP MILBURN, THE BLIND PREACHER.-At Jacksonville, 111., on Sa? turday lust, the Rev. Wm. H.

Colonel.McClure apologizes for the ab Bard exaggerations of Senator Scott about the Ka Klax, oa the groaad that the Senator from Pennsylvania does not kdow any better, bat actually believes that every anti-Grant man is a Kn Klax murderer. The Senator has recently re? ceived some instruction on this subject whioh ought to enlarge his understand? ing. Soott having stigmatized General J. B. Gordon, of Georgia, as among the organizers and earliest leaders of the Ku Klux, General Gordon has published a letter, in whioh he taxes the Senator with having uttered a wilful, deliberate falsehood, and says that he knows no? thing of any such order as the Ku Klux, Bave what he has seen in tho newspapers. He farther says that he bas never seen or heard of a disguise in Georgia, ex? cept those wora by two captured rob? bers, who were members of the Senator's own political party, both of whom are now in tho Georgia penitentiary.
