shocking raiload accident.
Baltimore December, 6.
We regret to state that a serious accident
involving the loss of two lives, and
very severe injury to three persous, occured
yesterday morning on the Philadelphia railroad.
In consequence of employing an
oxtra locomotive for the conveyance of the
President's Message, on Tuesday, it became
necessary to send an engine to Harve
de Grace yesterday morning, and one (to
which were attached a few burden cars,
TDQtainipg, however, but very little freight)
was ordered to start from Canton immedlately
after the arrival of a train of freight
cars from Philadelphia. The engineer,
either misuncterstanding the order, a hoping
to be able, with his very light load, to reach
the first turnout before the arrival of the
coming'rain, stare J his engine Delore the
time appointed, and had proceeded to within
half a mile of Stemmer's Run, (the firsl
stopping point,) when the train from Phila.
'Id'nMa nnnroanhed. and. Owin?? to the pre.
~ri ? valence
of a dense fog, neither engineei
discovered his danger until too late to applv
the impeding power. The consequence
was, that the two locomotives came togethwith
great violence, and in an instant both
enginos, with all the cars attached to them
were thrown iaio a confused heap of rums
Mr. Ebward Ford, the engineer of thi
train from Philadelphia, and a fireman or
the train going out, were instantly killed
The engineer of the other locomotives ant
several -firemen leaped from the care pr-v
ious to the collision, anj, although they sav
ed their lives, we learn that they are a!
more or less injnred.
As the accident occured on a part of th
road which passes through slightly elevate
ground, the ruins of the cars and their con
tents so completely blocked up the traci
that the passenger train which left Haiti
more at half past nine A. M. with the ma
for the Eas'eru cities could not proceed th
train was accordingly brought back, an

CHE RAW GAZETTE.
WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 19, 1839.
More than a year ago, the Editor of
tiiis paper intimated a purpose, then enter,
tained, of giving up the*Southern Chris,
tian Herald, conducted and published
j by him. It so turned out however that he
, fcit called upon to continue it. But the
j chiel purpose foi which it had been estab.
: lished having now been accomplished, the
! paper has been discontinued. The Cheraw
Gazette will, therefore, after the present
number, be filled entirely with matter selected
for its own colums, and the Editor ex.
pects after a little to be able to pay more
attention to it than he has hitherto done.
I Religious matter, although it will occupy
less space, will not be altogether excluded.
The notice of Andrews and Stoddard's
II Latin Grammar we are obliged to postpone
! till next week.
State\Legislature.?There never, perhaps,
> j was any session of this body from which
.. less was expected, or by which less was
j done, of any public interest, than the pres,!
ent. It had fixed upon this day as the time of
,! adjournment. From the naked Journals,
as far as published in the Columbia papers,
no satisfactory information can be derived
as to what is actually done. Iu most instun.
1 ces little more can be learnt than the sub.
i iects before the Houses.-*thut they have been
J J ' m
> referred, that reports have been made, and
i have been assigned for consideration on
i particular days. A report of the proceed,;
ings that should keep peace with them and
furnish a succinct account of all important
business done, or taken up, with the principal
features of important bitls, reports of
committees &c. would be both more interj
esting and more profitable to the public.?
| Sub-Treasury resolutions were intro|
duced into both Houses,?into the Senate
j by Judge Huger, and into the House by
] Col. Meminger. Those in the House pas'
sed, the majority numbering on the differ'
ent resolutions from 108 to 112; the minority
from 3 to 10. Next week, we shall
' be able 10 publish the resolutions with the
Yeas & Nays on tho most important of
them.
i

1 ers of similar character, doubtless passed
[ also. VVe arc pleased to see that neither set
of resolutions embraces anything making
t pretence to the right of instructiou. A bill
! was before the House to provide for choosing
| Presidential electors by the people, but we
\ j suppose has hard'y passed. The mover
doubtless aimed merely to increase his
popularity with a certain class of voters.

* The determination of the Post Master
[1 Genera! to lessen the mail accommodation
on the old main route from North to South
1
? has produced considerable excitement in
Raleigh N. C. A largo meeting com.
It nosed of both political parties was held, and
. a strong but respectful memorial addressed
' to the Post Office Department on the sub?
ject. The Post Master General invites
n proposals to carry the [mail oa the route,
_ daily, or tri-weekly, in coaches, hacks, or
?f sulkeys. But the compensation which he
' is willing to afford would not furnish and
support the horses, to say nothing of the
(other expenses.
One cf the largest town meetings which
, we have seen in Cheraw was held last night
d on the same subject, and adopted a set ol
n resolutions which wc shall publish next
^ week.
J ?
ie At the date ol the latest accounts uie
>t excitement and alarm seemed to be subsi.
J* ding. The Senate had set two days with.
I' out interruption from the mob. About a
?s thousand troops were stationed near and
ie about the Capital, to keep order.
Id Of all the evidence which the few pasi
years have affb:ded of a vicious and* anar

How to get a new Suit of Black.?A I c
Strangcr^not long since called on a woman j r
in Baltimore, whose husband had recently i 5
bought a suit of black, and said that his t
brother had just died and her husband au- i
thorized him to callou her and get the new i (

Another Defalcation and absconded Sub- i c
j Treasurer.?Wm. M. Price, u. S. District j<
attorney for the Southern District of New j1
York, went oiT secretly to England by the !
steamer Liverpool, and is represented to be j <
a defaulter to the amount of about $95,000. f
He had been directed, to carry on the pros- '
ecutions against Samuel Swartout and j (
his securities, and thereupon resigned his j ]
office, stating that it is his opinion Mr Swar- : v
tout will be able "to absolve himself from all jl'
obligations to Government or individuals?' j a
He adds that the cost due himself "for the j ^
unfinished business of the office" held by j
him would exceed the amount of public ; I
money in his hands. He is a bosom friend j
of Mr: Swartout's, and is said to have been , j
engaged with him in the purchase of Texas j
lands, in which they used the public money.! ^
This is another exemplification of what any j (
man of enlightened experience must have j 1
known beforehand wouiu oe tne necessary j
result of the Sub-Treasury experiment. As j1
long as human nature is what it is, no j j
sehemo can be devised by which large
amounts of money can be safely entrusted 1
with numerous individuals.

Insurrectionary movement in PennsylvU' j'
nia.?Our readers may remember that f,
when the return judges of Philadelphia i
county, Pa. met, after the election last full?
to count the returns and declare the result, j
a proposition was submitted by Ciiahles J. j
| Ixgersoll Esq. a candidate for Congress, :
t in roip^t nil ilm votes from the Northern !
1W "J-V - -Liberties,
on the ground that the managers |
of election in one irard had lost, or profess- j
| eel to have lost, their book in which their re-!
: cord of the votes was kept. The result j
j would have been, the election of A1k. Inj
gersoll himself to Congress, in the place
of Mr. Naylok, who had actually received
the greater number of legal votes. This
; proposal of Mr. Ingsrsoll was adopted by
,: the majority of the judges, and a report
made out accordingly,?the majority of the
i judges being of the Van Buren party.?
1 The Whig judges, six in number after the
return had been thus made out and signed i
by the Van Buron judges, ten in number,
got together und made out a report of their
own, from such returus as they could pro*
: cure (the Van Buren judges refusing to j
; give up to them the return from their wards.) ,

| and by him forwarded to the Secretary of!
the Commonwealth. The Van Buren, j
I judges subsequently made out their report i
. and forwarded itjalso to the Secretary.?
. Both reports, according to what we can col.
i cct fro m the numerous, and somewhat cor.,

bad the majority of legal votes for Cungress.
md the Van Buren candidates the m ijority
or the State Legislature. But it seems
hat the Van Buren party expected the Secretary
to send in to the two Houses, at tho
apening of the session, the first report received,
and we collect from the statenents,
the only one made to him by the]

In '.he Senate.?The Senate met at 3
P. M. and elected C. B. Penrose, Speaker.
\fter being some time in session, it appears
;hat the Senate broke up in confusion.
From the Baltimore Chronicle.
The House of Representatives of Penn~
syluania sacked hj a mob.?We have seen
ind conversed with a gentleman who left
Harrisburg yesterday morning, and who!
was present at the proceedings in the Leg. |
slature on Wednesday.
Long before the hour of meeting, the Se- [
into Chamber was laken possession of by j
i mob, who by their threats, deterred the j
Senate from meeting. The President, Mr. j
Penrose, appeared, and adjourned tile Senate
without further proceedings.
In the House, the fifiy-six Locofocos j
:ook possession, according to their adjourn- j
nent, at ten o'clock. The House was filled j
with ruffians. At two o'clock, the Whig
nembers appeared, according to their ad. j
ournment, when Mr. Spackmun, of PliiiaJelphia,
at the request of the Speaker,
VIr. Cunningham, advanced to the Speakir's
chair, then filled by Mr. Hopkins, for
he purpose of moving an adjournment.
When he reached the platform, and was
ibout to move the adjournment, lie was
eized by some of the mob, who filled the
lisles and lobbies, and thrust him out ofthe
House. The signal of tumult having been
jriven, the mob on the outside rushed in,
Iearing down the doors, and the members
ind peaceable citizens made their escape
hrough the windows, a number of which
were broken out.

Awful State ol Affairs.?The mob have
actual possession of the Capitol of PennsyL
vania, and it is impossible for the Legisla
ture to meet, or the business in the departments
of Government to proceed.
At the honr of half past two this afternoon,
as appointed for the meeting of the
House, the Speaker deputed Mr. Spackman
to adjourn the House till to-mcrrow. The
llall was filled with tire rioters, who seized
Mr. S. and forced him to retire, w!.en they
all rushed out, and he was barely enabled j
to escape without injury. In the scuffle, I
the doors were broken and the Hall other. |
wise mutilated.
The mob have now possession of the!
town, and mob law reigns supreme. The '
officers of the law make no attempt to put |
down the disgraceful scene. No life is safe; j
but the State authorities we understand have
taken all tlia measures possible under the
circumstances for the preservation of hfe
I
and property.

addressed to the People of the Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania, which, after giving
an account of the organization of the Senate
to the stage at which it was interrupted,
proceeds to givo an account of the disturbance
as fo'lows :
At this time Mr. Brown, of the county of
Phiiadelphia, not being a member of the
Senate, rose and attempted to address the
Senate ; and on being informed that he
could not be permitted to proceed, the mob in
the galleries and lobbies commenced making
intimidating noises aud threats, crying out
Brown ! Brown ! hear him ! hear him !?
reconsider your resolution?wc will have
I our rights, &c. &c.
! Amidst this tumult, Mr. Rogers, a
[ Senator from Backs county, ruse and mov.
j ed that Mr. Brown be permitted to address
i the Senate, which, being seconded by
i Mr. FwSr??r. h f*r?rr' ncton
county, who was prompted by a fear of|
personal violencejto.theSpeaker,and threats
of bloodshed from the mob, then pressing
within the oar of the Senate, was agreed toiMr.
Brown having pledged his honor to
Messrs Miller and Fraley, Senators from
Philadelphia, not to use any inflammatory
remarks, made a speech, which he professed
to te intendod to subdue the excite*
mcnt in the galleries, and to induce the mob
to disperse ; but the warmth of his feelings
| carried him into great impropriety both of
speech and manner, declaring that we were
in the midst of a revolution, and that there
r . a
was an enu 01 constitutional government,
occasionally addressing them in a suppIL
eating manuer, invoking them to be quiet,
and asking whether they were prepared to
trampie the Constitution and laws under
foot, and shed the best blood of the Com.
monwealth to attain their ends. To these
questions the mob responded Yeg, yes; we .
will, we will, and accompanied their assent
with horrible cries of Give us blood if we (
cannot have our rights! Mr, Brown at i
length concluded, and, on motion of
Mr. Bell, of Chester, the Senate agreed to
meet daily, at 10 o'clock in the morning,
and then adjourned, the mob rushing within
the bar of the Senate before the Speaker
had announced the decision. The Senate
Chamber, was then tukon possession of by
the mob/and most inflammatory speeches
addressed to them by several of their lead,
ers, and that hitherto sacred apartment has i
subsequently, whenever the Senate attempt,
ted to assemble* been filled with rioters ,
threatening violent interference with the ,
business of the Senate until their demands
were acceded to. To such a fearful height '
was the excitement carried that the Speako
or of the Senate and several members wer
compelled, under threats of personal injurv
to escape by the windows of the Capitol
The unlawful and riotous assemblages
offthe misguided and dangerous men have
been continued several times at the
St ate Capitol and Court House of e
rnnntx; of Dauphin, and the Senate is
now unable to proceed wish their legitimate
functions, and they accordingly announce
o the people of the S*ate that their repre..
tsentar.ves cannot with safety attend the
halls o f legislation, until the insurrectionary j
and riotus assemblages, by which they are
now threatened with violence, are quelled
by the arm of the constitutional power of
the State, or a return to reason and duty
shall induce them to disperse.
The Governor of the State issued his
proclamation calling upon the military fir.
ces to hold themselves in instant rtadiness
to march to the seat of Government. A i
division of militia had been ordered ? ut.
Seperate meetings of citizens belonging to
the two parties were held in Philadelphia. 1
The Whigs first appointed a committee ot
conference to meet any similar committee
which might be appointed by the other party.
The Van Bu.en party appointed a commit- i
tee to meet the other, provided assurance j
should be given that no military force
should be marched from Philadelphia under .
the proclamation of the Governor. Whilst <
these committees, by their chairmen, were 1
carrying on a correspondence, a military i
force actually marched from Philadelphia c
lor Harrisburg. The Van Buren commit- ?
tee thereupon notified the other that this j
fact annuled their appointment. The correspondence
then closed by a letter from \
Horace Binney, chairman ot the Whig
committee, in which he regrets the failure ]
of the attempted conference, but states that 11
the meeting which ho represents could on no
account consent to draw into question the 1
military orders calling out the militia, which !
bad been issued according} to law, by per-j
sons responsible for the act. I
