BUFFALO, Dec. 27.—The following are the full particulars of the railroad disaster at Prospect Station, on the Cross Cut road:

About sixty rods west of the station is a trestle-work some thirty feet high, ou which was a broken rail. The locomotive and tender on the eastern-bound express passed over it in safety, but the baggage and passenger cars (only two coaches on the train) were thrown from the trestle, fell thirty feet and struck top downwards. The weight of the trucks crushed the ears and closed up the windows. To render the situation still more terrible, the passeuger coach was tilted upon its side, so that for the occupants of that'side there were absolutely no means or escape. Almost, immediately the cars took tire, the passenger coach burning at b«th ends. Some half dozen persons who were waiting at the station were soon at the scene of the accident, but they worked at au immense disadvantage

No water could be bail, and the snow that-was scraped up had but little effect Ju staying the flames. Only two axes Vdifrftvail&bjej 8gJ tfce oetjrVufc pf &§

car,3 was bolted together so firmly that but little headway could be made. All the time that these efforts Wefe beihg put forth the flames werfe steadily growing, and the shrieks of imprisoned vie tims as the scorch iug heat enveloped them was appalling to the stoutest heart. Now and then a rope was put through a crevice, fastened to a human form, and the sufferer pulled out by main strength. Sometimes it would he a lifeless body, and the charred arms, legs or head would drop off in the struggle. In three or four instances the head was thus sepa rated from the body, and in as manj' more cases the body was bereft of its limbs. The body of a lady was thus rescued from the flames, the head and one arm dropping off like apiece of charcoal, while the other arm was untouched, a dainty kid glove covering her hand and her fingers wearing their jeweled ornaments. The body will doubtless be identified with the aid of the rings. But for them it would be impossible to ideut ify it. The remains of three other ladies were taken out, neither of which it is be lieved can be recognized by their friends.

In all, it is estimated that fully ten of the number of forms removed from the burning car are unrecognizable.

It is supposed that in addition to the bodies recovered a number of others were consumed in the two cars, and that nothing but,blackened bones will be discovered when the ashes of the fire are raked over.

Addiug them to the number of injured that will die, it is estimated that the total number of Jives lost will not fall short of thirty five. The whole number of people in the two cars at the time of the disaster was about fifty-five.

The following are reported among the killed: J. King, of Spring Mills, New York W. H. Mayburn, Mark Haight, cattle dealer of Brocton, N. Y. a young man named Bell, from Sherman, N. Y. and Frank Taylor, of Corry, Pa.

Young Bell had a twin "brother on the train who was severely burned, but it is thought he willlsurvive. Frank Taylor was leaning against some object, immediately after the accident, and seeing an acquaintance passing, called him by name. The friend turned around aud saw Taylor, apparently uninjured, but suddenly he said "Tell my wife—," aud fell over, dead. He must have died from some internal injury.

The inmates of the burning cars were at the time shrieking for aid, and Mr. Taylor's friend did not see him again until his corpse was brought in and placed with the others.

After the groans of the dying were stilled in death, the stench issuing from the burning bodies is said to have been sickening, with no means of extinguishing the flames, aud the heat being too intense to admit of all bodies being^extiricated, nothing could be done by the spectators but to stand quietly by and see the remains slowly consumed.

The following is a list of the injured now at Prospect Station, being cared for in the houses of the residents of that place:

Seney Miller, ofTitusville, Pa.,burned, but not seriously. W. S. Ticknor, of Titusville, injured about the head and elbow, very seriously.

Miss Eliza Seeley, of Ripley, N. Y., bruised^ but not fatally. J. J. Bartes, ofTitusville, injured in shoulder and back, but will probably recover.

W. H. Lee, of Corry, Pa., not seriously —he was hurt about the head and shoulders.

Jacob Berlinee, of Irvine, N. Y., injured about the head and shoulders, but not seriously.

J. A. Durham, of Pieasantville, N. Y., injured quite seriously in the hip. Maggie Curtin, of Titusville, injured seriously about the bead. She has vomited considerable blood, and her injuries will probably terminate fatally.

Geo. Miller, of Fredonia, N. Y., bruised considerably, but not considered dangerously hurt.

Mrs. James McCurtiu, of Mill Station, on the A. & G. W. R. R.f near Meadville, Pa., head dangerously injured. She is delirious and will probably die.

E. R. Brocton, of Brocton, N. Y., aud Levi Briggs, of Angola, N. Y., injured, but not seriously.

John A. Hilton, of Rochester, N. Y., shoulder injured. T. P. Flanders, of Corry, the conductor of the, train, both feet and legs seriously burned to the knee, ribs fractured and back injured. It is thought that he cannot recover.

The case of Mrs. McCurtiu is a sad one. She is delirious most of the time, but in her sane intervals calls for her child and husband. The child she describes as being twenty months old and wearing a red dress. Such a child was taken out of the car almost uninjured. The little thing is being kindly cared for in a neighboring house, and seems to be tolerably well satisfied with its new quarters, unconscious of the terrible loss it will probahly suffer in the death of its mother. At times the mother calls for her husband, saying be was on the train with her. If such is the case he is dead. At other moments she says her husband is in the East. She is very restless, and opiates have little effect upon her.

Conductor Flanders was in the burning car nearly an hour before he could be released. At first his injuries were not considered very serious, but later they assumed an alarming character, and now his case is believed to be critical.

Everything that medical skill and tender nursing can accomplish is being done to alleviate the sufferings of the wounded. Previous to the arrival of Dr. Strong, of Westfield, a number of the wounded had been sent to M&yvHle ou a special car.

wounded are at Mayville, from whom nothing has yet beeu heard. The following is a later special jfrom the scene of the disaster to the Erie Dispatch

MAYVILLE, N. Y., Dec. 20.—The bodies thus far identified are Mark Haight, of Brocton Wm. H. Osboorne, of Westfield, N. Y. Herman Ryan, of Farnham Con. Maloney, of Brocton Edwin Bell, of Sherman Frank Taylor, of Corry, Pa. John White, of Lancaster Angriot Cardat, ofArkwright Charles Metz, of Eden Corners, near Angola, N. Y. Mr. and Mrs. Wilbur F. Rice, OfTitusville E.Joseph Curtin, ofTitusville Kate Riley, of Dunkirk Wm. Rankin, a laborer from Canada James H- McCarter, of Miller's Station, Pa. Four bodies are yet unrecognised. All the Wounded but Maggie Curtin, W. H. Ticknor, Mrs. Cornelia McCarted, and Fayette Flanders have left Prospect Station for their home?.

BROOKLYN, Dec. 27.—The snow storm of yesterday is said to be the heaviest in ten years. Early in the day, many street cais stopped, but the principle ones continued until 5:30 P. M., when they were compelled to stop. On one line ten horse snow plows followed each other at intervals of two to three minutes, but without avail. Navigation in the Sound is becoming dangerous in consequence of the masses of floating ice. The ferries on East aud North rivefs are very much delayed for the same reason.

From Tennessee,

MKMPHIS, Dec, 27.—The Memphis Bank, J. J. Murphy President, suspended this morning. The event has been an* ticipated for some time. The assets of the concern are said to be $75,000, though the amount they will realize is unknown. The bank owed to depositors, mostly in small sums to persons of limited me&ns, a total of $25,000.

MEMPHIS, Dec. 27.—The ice gorge broke at 2 o'clock this morning, and stink the Belle of Pike, R. P. Walt, Laura and Westwind, and damaged Andy Baum, Glasgow, St. Francis, City of Augusfta, Pat Clesurn and Nellie Thomas, &hd swept off Undine, Celesti and Clipper, aud barges of coal fleet were swept away and sunk. The ice is still running.

MEMPHIS Dec. 27.—About half past 12 o'clock, last night, one of the most de* structive accidents that has ever occurred in this vicinity, was occasioned by the breaking away, yesterday, of the ice gorge at Randolph, 40 miles above here, and the floating masses of ice coming down with the current of a rapidly rising river was carried with terrible force against the dry dock owned by Capt. W. P. Walker, tearing it from the bank and snapping the huge hawsers that had held it as well as au immense chain cable, as though they were made of thread, and carried it down fully one hundred and crowded it against severaF ?oal floats, which were crushed against the bank, and also' sinking one or two that were on the outside. The steamer Andy Baum, lying above the foot of Jefferson street, was carried by the ice down upon the wharf boat owned by the Cincinnati Packet Company and thrown against the outside guard, tearing her guards fearfully, and jamming the wharf boat upon the bank, injuring it considerable, but fortunately there was no hole knocked in the hull of either. The stern wheel steamer West Wind, laying next above, was forced down until her wheel was crowded over the upper guard of the wharf boat, and literally tore her wheel to shreds and broke in her stern. The ice forcing a hole in her hull, caused her to partly fill with water, and she now lies considerably careened and supported on^e outside by the ice..

Next above her was the stern wheel steamer, Laura, which was crowded high upon the bank and afterward dropped back and sunk with the water over her lower deck.

The R. P. Walt was the next boat above, and is a total wreck, as she was jammed with such force upon the bank as to break and twist her hull into all sorts of shapes. She was worth $40,000, and was just preparing to load for New Orleans.

Outside of her came the City of Augusta, also owned by Elliott & Miller, worth $60,000. Her starboard guard was crowded under the larboard wheel of the Walt, and she was injured considerably by the ice, but had taken no water up to a late hour.

The furniture, cabin fixtures, etc., of the Walt are being taken to the shore, and she will be wrecked where she is. At her stern lies the little steamer Summer Koou, and the propeller, Helen Brooks. The former was sunk, but the latter having au iron hull is injured but little.

Three coal barges werejerushed in be tween the Augusta and Walt, and the two on the outside were raised and their bows thrown high in the air and falling across the third, were forced against the boilers and cabin floor of the Walt and the boilers were torn up and the cabin floor burst through.

The Belle of Pike lays next above the Walt, and fared as badly as she. The ice stove in her hull, and she lies sunk, with 750 bales of cotton, with the water afoot over her main deck, aud she is supported ouly by the ice.

Brown & Jones, coal dealers, lost 11 or 15 barges and flats, with 250,000 bushels of coal, and their loss alone will be $150,000. No insurance.

Above the Belle of Pike, lays the little steamer Nellie Thomas, a total wreck, she having been crushed and jammed against the bank by the Pat Claiborne, at the foot of Poplar street. The Claiborne was injured but little, being protected by a barge on the outside.

The ferry boat Excelsior lays next above, and is damaged but slightly, her guards being crowded on the bank. The Celeste was above the dry dock, and was carried down past the city and out of sight. The little steamer Undine was carried down also, and thrown by the ice upon the head of President's Island.

The transfer boat, H. C. Nutt, is with the John Overtou on the opposite side of the river, at Hopefield, and has not been heard from. *??w, b°af» Clipper, and barges, were at the bar over the river and were torn away and doubtless sunk.

not be sent her, as the ice is too heavy. The gas company lost 100,000 bushels of coal, and may not have euough left to light tho city to-night.

Below Court street, the Arlington lays, with 15,000 bales of cotton on board. She was crowded down on the St. Francis, and she in turn upon the Glasgow, breaking. the wheel and wheel house of the former and the upper deck of the latter. The Arlington escaped, however, with but little injury.

Next below are the Ashland, A. J. White, Mary Miller* and Lawrence, and at the elevator, the P. \v £trater, all of which, with twenty-live produce boats, lying between, received but slight injury-

and it is feared that anoihe" por'ibn of the gorge will come down, in which case the loss will undoubtedly be double. As it is, it will Hardly fall short of half a million dollacs.

From New York Cily. NEW YORK, Dec. 27.—The snow storm still continues this morning, though the fall is much lighter than yesterday. But few cars or stages are running, as the streets are almost totally blockaded by immense snow drifts, some being three feet high above the sidewalk. A large number of sleighs are out.

The trains last night, arrived very irregularly. The New York Central, aud Hudson River trains were delayed by western conuectionson the Pennsylvania Central. The Morris & Essex, New Jersey Central, Erie, New York & New Haven aud other roads connecting with the metropolis, the majority of the trains are more or less late- No mails arrived all day yesterday, exeept the 9 A. M. train from Boston. At 12:30, to-day, the Washington mail, due atO A. M. yesterdav, had not arrived.

The Street Cleaning Bureau has a force of laborers at various points in the city where the traffic is the greatest, and the work of cleaning away the snow blockade will be pushed vigorou.-ly to-day. Jersey City people,in thisand neighboring places, are much inconvenienced by the storm yesterday. Railroad travel is greatly interfered with. Early trains are more regular than those which started from the terminus late in the day.

The following are losses by the fire at 119 Franklin street last night: The buildiug was damaged $25,000. The first floor aud basement was occupied by B«st & Co., linen goods, $20,000 second and third floors, Tine & Co., lace goods and collars, $30,000 third floor, B. A. Dryer & Co., fancy goods, $10,000. The Rolland Cornice building, 115 and 117, .was damaged to the extent of $1,000 by yaJd!TrBre. The stock of the- oeeflfHMFrt»r'C.

Spencer & Co., dealers in hosiery, was damaged totally. The loss is estimated at $125,000. Insurance not ascertained.

The ruins of the Centre street fire were still smoulderiug last night. Hundreds visit the scene hourly, and the most anxious inquiries continue to be made for the missing girls. The cleaning away of the ruins to search for the missing bodies, begins to-day, if the weather will permit.

A Tribune special from Maysville, N. Y., says the work of identifying the victims of the accident at Prospect Station is greatly liatsened by the arrival of relatives and friends, and only five bodies remain unclaimed.

Titusville suffered heavily, for in addition to Mr. and Mrs. Rice," Chas. Metz, Kitty Riley and Jas. Curtin were from there. Those identified yesterday were Jas. H. McCartin, Miller Station, Penn. Wm.Raukin, Mayville, N. Y., and Jno. Cardal, Sinclairville, N. Y. Of the wourded, Mr. Ticknor is still alive, but can't possibly recover Mr. Cook was somewhat better last night, butis injured iuternally. The doctors say he will die. John Cowdry, of Corry, is injured internally, but may recover. Conductor Flanders will probably recover. There mainder are improving, and are not considered in any danger.

The railroad officials are doing all the requisite comfort to the iujured, and have, of course, furnished coffins for the dead. The road has been iu operation six years. This is the first accident resulting the loss of life to passengers.
