THE ACCIDWT of Monday evening, which resulted in the death of MiaLaura Tuttle, was one of the most terrible that has everoccurred In this city. As menVoued in yesterday's paper, she was riding, in company with Mr. John_'Turner, her three sisters and a small brother The party were comiDg down Seventh street, the deceased driving. Ai engine standing a few rods to the west attracted their attention, and the train composed of low coal cars, backing down from the east, was not discovered until the horses were nearly upon the track Then Miss Tuttle handed Mr. Turner the reins, and be attempted to turn the horses about this brought one of the fore wheels upon the track, and just a this moment the carriage was

the wheels of tho car, and the carnage turned over in tho opposite direction. This saved the balance of the party. 0 wheels of soveral cars passed over tho doomed voung lady, crushing one arm, both lower limbs, tho body,, and causing instant death. Two cars were thrown from the track, tho ties broken and rails misplaced. The carriage was utterly domolished, but the horses escaped with a lew bruises. The horses and carriaRO belonged to Mr. W. Hunter,

We are not prepared to say that any blame is to be attachod to any person about the trains. The train which caused the accident was composed of fifteen low coal cars, and was being backed by an engine of theT. H. & I. over to the yard of tho St. Louis road, where

tbe oars were to be attachod to a train put this editorjaHi^^ Mr. Crapp, who Monday a ±r. i-i a lt

just ready to go west had charge of the switching engino of the St. Louis road, signalled the approaching train to stop, in ordor that he might get •his enaine out of the way. Wo learn all trains backing in this way at night have Council, published for many success,vo abrakeman with lantern upon the rear days in your paper. Your "recollection end of the train to give warning of ap. must have been refreshed between Mon proacb. In this case the brakeman get day morning and yesterday m°rnin|! down, and taking h.s lantern, went over Squirm out or this, if you can. to see what was the matter. By the time he got over to the switching engine it wa» oat of the way, and the coal train waB signalled to come forward. The brake man, being so near, did not think it necessary to go back with his light. The train when it started was within eight or ten car lengths of Seventh street, aad having been cautioned by those of the St. Louis train to como in slow, could not have been moving very fast. The engi neer rang his bell upon Btarting, but being at the farther end of a long train, it doubtless was not heard. At this time the moon was obscured by clouds, and the approaching train was behind a high board fence and tall shrubbery, caueing even had it to be a dangerous crossing the brakeman, with a light, been in place at the rear of the train.

We have Btated above that we are not prepared to say that any blame is to be attached to any person about the trains There is one precaution however, that would have prevented this accident and saved the life of this young lady and that ia a flagman at the crossing. As will be observed from the above description of tho situation on Monday evening, this ia a crossing of the most dangerous character, and tbe only wouder is that accidents have not occurred there before. There are other crossings equally dangerous, and ihe public new demand that flagman be stationed night and day at each of these crossings. It becomes the duty of the City Council to see that such provision is ina3e and enforced for the future protection of life and limb, after the fearful lessons of the past ton days.

It is ead to think, however, that all our precautions cannot bring back to life this unfortunate young girl, just budding into womanhood, the loved companion of a large circle of friendi, the oherished sister, and the idolized daughter of doting parents. The family and relatives have the deep sympathy of this entiro community in this hour of terrible^fliiction.

The funeral services will be held at the Cjngregational Church, services will be conducted by Rov. W. M. Cheever this afternoon at two clock, after which the body will be placed in the vault at the cemetery, and from thence taken to Indianapolis for final interment.

OUR recollection IS, that the Second Ward elactions have been hold at the. Mill for two or three years past. The location is central, and we suppose the Council never thought of placing tho polls where the great mass of Republican voters would be accomodated. If that class of voters must have extra priv „nw I ciass oi voters must u»vo r"

uld suggest that the ballot

box might be passed around to their re. spectivo places of residence or business.— Journal.

Your recollection is wrong as usual.— One or two elections, of remote date, may have been held at the Mill, but Reese's shop has been tho voting place in the Second Ward for several years. The location, Hill's Mill, is not central. It very far removed from the great masa of voters in the Ward, but is Convenient for getting in a good number of Democratic voloe. Republicans ask no "extra privi lege," and .don't expect even common fairnoss from the present City Council

PROCEEDINGS OF THE BAR IN THE COM MON PLEAS COURT ON THE DEATH or WM. H. DELANO, ESQ.—At a meeting tbe Terre Haute Bar and officers of the Court, held in the court room on the 16th instant, for the purpose of considering the death of Wm. H. Delano, late a mem ber of said bar, on motion of Col. John P. Baird, Hon. Wm. Mack waa called the Chair and Samuel Royse was appointed Secretary,

Tbe object of the meeting being stated by tho President, Genoral Charles Crufl moved the appointment of a committee to draft resolutions expressive of the sense of the meeting. The Chair appoint ed Gen. Cruft, Col. Wm. E. McLean and Isaac N. Pierce, Esq., said committee, who, after retiring a short time, returned and reported the following preamble and resolutions:'^ *f

Our professional brother, WILLIAM H. DELANO, was born on the 28th of August, 1823, in Columbns, Ohio. At an early age he was engaged in a book store in Chilicothe, Ohio, where he probably formed and cultivated to some extent the literary tastes for which he waa distinguished in after life. Before attaing his majority he removed to Henderson, Ky. Shortly afterward he entered Kenyon College, Ohio, and subsequently graduated at that institution.

At collego Mr. Delano ranked among the first in hia studies, and was particularly distinguished in bis thorough.acquiaition of the ancient languages. In 1843—44 he read law in the office of Messrs. Crieghton & Green in Chilicothe. After completing his professional studies he removed to Victoria, Texas, and commenced the practice of law in connection with a gontleman of distinction in that State. Finding however that a rough frontier life was not suited to his tastes or disposition, ho left Texas and removed to Henderson Kentucky. Here he formed a partnership in tbe practice of the law, with Hon. Archibald Dixon, and for a number of years was engagod actively in his proftssional duties. In 1867 Mr. Delano removed to this city and established himself in connexion with Mr. Meredith. His failing health howover did not permit him to pay that attention to his profession hore, that had marked the earlier years of his life. Mr. Delano was distinguised for his learning and research in all matters, for his mild and modest bearing and his uniform courtesy in the various relations or lire. His earlier efforts at his profession, before his health failed, arc spoken of, by those who then knew him, as ranking high, and that too, at a bar among the most distinguished in Kentucky. The victim of a lingering disease, his health gradually gave way, and on tho 3rd inst. Mr. Delano died peacefully and happily,at the residence of his brother, near the city.

Resolved, That in the death of our professional brother, William H. Delano, tbe bar has been deprived of a learned, hightoned and conscientious member, whose life, during the time he has dwelt among us, has been marked by great purity and courtesy, and whoso memory will long bo cherished-by his surviving brethren.

Resolved, That we offer our condolence to the family of the deceased in their affliction, occasioned by the (death of our lamented brother.

Resolved, That these proceedings be cer« tilled to the Common Pleas Court, now in session, with the request that they be spread of record and that the city newspapors bo requested to publish the aame.

After tho delivery of appropriate remarks upon t£e professional and private character of tho deceased, by Hon. F. Ml Meredith and others, the roeolytiooa were unanimously adopted.

The foregoing proceedings were imme* dtately reported to the Vigo Common Pleas Court, then in session, and an order having been made to spread them upon record, the Court adjourned out of respect for the memory of the deceased.

The Committee appointed to examine the census of the city, as far as it had progressed under the direction of B. Harrison, Esq., have had the same under consideration, and are entirely satisfied with the work of Esq. Harrison, so far as the aame has been prosecuted toward completion. Tbe plan of taking the cen sus seems to the Committee to be admi rable, but they believe that, as the Na tional census is to be taken in 1870, that the same should not be further prosecuted at this time. Tbe Committee would, therefore, recommend that Mr. Harrison be piaid~tbe sum of one hundred dollars, and that no further labor be expended upon the work, for the reasons above sl|ted. '3. .*•

Respectfully submitted Mr. Dowling offered tbe following WHEREAS, the City Council of Terre Haute is ask6d to iisue the bonds of the city to the amount of one hundred thou sand dollars to aid in the construction of a Railroad from Terre Haute to Danville, Illinois, there to connect with a Railroad said to be in the course of construction from that place to Chicago and whereas the members of this Council have no information, official or otherwise, that such Railroad is being built within the State of Illinois, or who are its officers, what are its means, or what progress is making towards the completion of the same ancl whereas this information, in an authentic or official shape, is essential to the mem bers of this Council, in order that they may act with knowledge and understand ing upon the petition of tbe citizens now before us therefore

Resolved, That when this information is furnished, the Council will be prepared to consider what is best to do in response to tbe petition of the citizens who ask the issue of tbe bonds of the city, to aid in the completion of said road, and, till then, that the consideration of tbe subject be postponed.

The resolution was unanimously adopted. Mr. Coats offered the following:

WHEREAS, The office of Sealer of Weights and Measures is one that is important for the protection of the interests of the inhabitants of the city, and as said office has been in abeyance for some time, no person having been elecUd to fill said office, and,

BUFFALO RACES—BILLY BARB'S vicTOKY.—The Buffalo Courier of Saturday, gives the following description of the race in which Mr. Tullera horie, Billy Barr, took in a purse of $5,000

First Heat—The betting -was two to one on Dan vers Boy against the field, and these odds were greedly taken by the knowing ones. Clara had one of her crazy fits, and after making a show on the track, her performance consisting jrincipally of kicking up her hoels and )alking, she did start with the others. Confidence and Bryon were drawn. The four left in got the word on the third at* tempt, Barr, having the advantage of the start. Angeline drew up to him, and tbey swnng around the first turn together. The dun then went by Angeline, and the gray paid her the same compliment.

At the quarter in 36, Barr led by fully eight lengths, with the gray second, the bay mare third, and the favorite in the rear, much to the disgust of his backers. The leader, trotting like a thief, went to the half in

1:12,

opening a still larger gap,

Thomas being fully fifteen lengths behind him at that position, Angeline six lengths behind the gray, and the bay stallion two lengths farther in the rear. On the upper turn the grayjbehaved badly, and Ange line gave him the go-by, as well as Genet. Billy Barr came down the home stretch under a pull, winning by ten lengths, in 2:25, Angeline second, Genet a poor third, and the gray barely saving his distance.

Second Heat—Billy Barr took the place in the pools before occupied by Genet, selling for two to one against the others. Angelina was.sent off with the lead, Barr second, Genet third, and Thomas fourth. The favorite held his inside position, and took the lead from the mare round the first turn. Before reaching the quarter he left his feet twice, was quickly caught each time, but Angeline swung to| the front, taking the inside position, and led at the quarter-pole, in 38J, by two lengths Genet on Barr's wheel, and Thomas four lengths behind.

Up the city side the favorite went for the mare, lapped her and drew slightly ahead. At the half, in 1:14}, Barr led by a half a length, Genet ten or a dozen lengths behind, .with Thomas trailing.— On the upp^r turn the bay mare made several desperate lunges, but Barr was not to be had. He came home easily, winning tho heat in 2:26J by four lengths from Angeline, ten lengths behind, and the gray baroly saving her distance. Angeline waB given the outside on account of her cutting in on Barr turn.

Third Heat—There waa very little speculation. Some few obstinate stickers took the odds of one hundred to ten of Billy Barr, but on the main the offer went bogging. The eastern men who had been confident that Genet would win, felt very sore, as they saw tbeir losses slipping away from tbem. The horses got off on the second trial, with Angeline threa lengths ahead. Barr second, on the inside, Genet and Thomas together, close up. The little dun gelding showing his heels to Angeline rounding the first turn, gave h«r the go-by and led the quarter, 37} by six lengths, Genet having collared Angeline, the gray behind.— The favorite, trotting steadily, drew away from his followers, and at tbe half, in 1:13$, ha'd opened a gap of ten lengths. Angeline was second, Thomas third long way behind, and Genet, who had gone all to pieces after passing the quarter, thirty or forty lengths behind him, and out of the race. Billy Barr had things all his own way, and won the heat and race handily in 2:27, Angenline being second. Thomas third and Daavers Boy double distanced.
