ANOTHER shocking accident at the

Union Depot, Indianapolis, is thus reported in the <Journal> of that city:

A most distressing accident occurred near the east end of the Union Depot, between seven and eight o'clock last evening. Upon the arrival of the train from Jeffersonville, the "pony" engine was backed up to the rear end of the sleeping car, as usual, for the purpose of detaching it from that train and connecting it with the train to Lafayette. When near the intersection of the Jeffersonville railroad track with the Union track, a passenger named David Martin, a gentleman about fifty years of age was thrown, by some means, under the car, the wheel of which struck his right foot and passed up the leg to the thigh, crushing it in the most horrible manner the entire length of the limb. He was from Netting Hall,

Center county, Pennsylvania, and was on his was home, having been out West in search of a new home.

He was removed at once to the Sur-

Resolved,

Dr.

Thompson was certain the Council in considering tho matter, had no inten tion when the donation was proposod to give money to be used in harrassing and tearing up our best and meat worthy citizens. JIo know ho would bo one of the last persons to give a cent to bo used that way, when Mr. Sinker was not rrpponsiblo in tho least (or tho disaster. 11 had said in his presence, as ho lay in his bod, "Gentlemen, if I thought au act of mice causcd this suffering, would givo up every cent of my property to-morrow to commissioners to bo divided amongst the sufferers." IIo was satisfied that un loss some such action was taken, very fow persons would makodonations, from what ho had heard personB say.

THE Governor ha? issued tho following

proclamation

"7b the Pfople of the State c/ Indiana:

"The recent explosion at tho State Fair Grounds has not only broughtsorrow and bereuvemont to many homes, but has left families to a groater or less extent destiluto. Tho people of tho capital liavo takon steps to rairo a fund for tho relief of tbe sufferers, and have appointed a oommittco to solicit tho people in every portion of tho State to contribute to tho fund. Tho Common Council ot tho city of Indianapo i3 havo designated a comrnittoo of responsible and trustworthy citiznns to receivo and disburen tho hinds which may bo contributed. "Thoroforo, I Conrad Bakor, Governor of tho Stfito of Indiana, do hereby announce tho action

takon, and carnesliy

request that tho call for pecuniary assist an co, which may bo mado by tho commit toee appointed for I hat purpose, may be promptly and liberally responded to by tho pooplo. "If all tho families who werorepressnted on tho fair grounds at tho time of this sad catastrophe, and whoso representative members were mercifully spared from sharing in its c.onscqiionces, would only make a small contribution, by way of "thank offering, to tho Almighty Dispenser of human events, the surviving sufferers and tho families of those who havo fallen woukl ho amply relieved so for as il is possiblo for human efforts to ti fiord relief. Let us, thon, in our whorshiping associations, or as individual citizens, re. member tho claims of tho stricken ones, and contribute to their roleief. "In witness whereof I have hereunto subscribed my namo and caused the seal of tho Stale to bo fixed, at tho city of Indianapolis, this sixth day of October, in tho year of our Lord ono thousand eight hundred and sixty-nino. [Signed] CONRAD BAKER. "Dy tho Govorncr: M. F. A. HOFFMANN,

Secretary of State.''

THE Coroner's Jury in the case of the victims of the State Fair disaster, ren-

dered their verdict which fixes the blame upon John Goll, the enginecr.— He was, in the opinion of the jury, guilty of "carelessness and culpable mismanagement." Here is the verdict;

In rendering our verdict in regard to the fearful calamity which has spread gloom over so many houses, we deem it due to the community as well as ourselves that we shall say that we have arrived at our conclusion, obtained under the embarrassment of discrepancy and conflicting statements, resulting, we hope and believe, from the difference of judgment and observation as is often apparent where the opinion of a great number is received and under the greater embarrassmont of excited popular prejudice —easily forgiven where there is entire absence of conflicting interest—and where it is only the result of true sympathy and the exactions of an injured and indignant populace, who have so recently been deprived and bereaved of good and useful citizens.

We have summoned before us all from whom it was possible to obtain any information which would likely serve us in reaching a verdict which would be in accordance with all the facts.

We have had every man who saw the accident, whose name could be obtained, and we have had the testimony of many who saw the working of the machinery at various periods during the day up to few minutes before the accident occurred. We have summoned before us men who are familiar with the construction of engines in all their various parts, and also quite familiar with the character of the material used in the construction of the boiler, and all other parts of the co-opera-ting machinery. We have had the benefit of the opinions of men who are learned (and of great experience) in the philosophy of steam power and of the points of danger which at any time may be so quickly developed into destructive action. /And we have had experts who have had thoroughly examined the broken parts of the boiler and debris, which lies scattered over a great surface, and by their aid have been enabled to form some theory of the phenomenon of the explosion. And it is from the statements and opinions of such men, differing very widely in many essential particulars, that we are compelled to reach a conclusion.

The condition of a boiler can be so quickly changed, that the statement of any one, however competent and truthful made at one time, could not be relied upon to determine its condition, even within the short space of ten minutes afterwards, particularly in an engine which was so frequently stopped.

There can be no other conclusion from the evidence, than that the water was permitted to become low in the boiler, and when demand was made on the engineer for power to propel the machinery he either had not the moral courage to refuse to risk the danger, or displayed

TIIE Indin.itnapolis Relief Asfoiiation

has adopted this resolution

that culpable recklessness which ultimated in the fearful disaster. In accordance with these facts and details, we therefore find, and render our verdict as follows: That P. L. Davis and twenty others came to their death from injuries received by the exploding of a boiler attached to one of of E. P. Sinker & Co.'s portable engines, at the Indiana State Fair Grounds, on the 1st day of October, 1869, which explosion was caused by carelessness and culpable mismanagement on the part of the enginoor in charge, John Goll, deceased

TERRE HAUTE is becoming a very nice place, which is clearly proven by the fact that only two prize fights occurred near that city on Wednesday.—<Evansville

Journal>.

That tho officers of the Asso

ciation bo .instructed not to afford relief to a:!y smffirer from tho recent disaster at lha Vair Grounds, unless they have satisfactory evidence that such applicant will not resort to law to obtain damages from Messrs. linker & Co., and that it is th uticloriitandjng ot this meeting that all nations' entrusted to them thai! be dia tributcd as above indicated.

The prevailing sentiment in Ihnt city, in regard to the responsibility of Mr, SinUor, appears to'bo in accordance with tho following remarks of Dr. Thompson a gentleman of the highest responsibility

Our Evansville cotemporary conveniently forgets to mention that the "two prize fights'' occurred in the State of Illinois, eighteen miles from Terre Haute. Would it be fair to hold Evansville responsible for disgraceful events occurring in Henderson, or other portions of Kenlucky, within eighteen miles of that city? Will the <Journal> do the fair thing

and inform its readers, that the fighting occurred out of this State? Such an affair could not have happened in Vigo county. Our people would not have submitted to so flagrant a violation of law. =====

Terrible Railroad Ride.

From the Cleveland Plaindealer.] The lightning express train, Conductor Holm, on the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern road, left Toledo on time, Monday evening, with a little colored boy on board, who rode to Norwalk, under circumstances that fairly makes railroad men tremble as they contemplate the situation.

At Fremont the boy was discovered, for the first time, comfortably seated at the head of the engine, under the headlight. Being routed from that position, he disappeared in the darkness, and was supposed to have remained in Fremont. If the reader has never traveled from Fremont to Norwalk—thirty miles on this fast train, fairly flying, at the rate of almost thirty miles an hour, a vivid conception of the perilous position of the boy, as he clung to a truck beneath the

baggage car, blinded, covered, and almost

When tho thundering of the train had ceased, the inspector of its motionless wheels discovered the boy at Norwalk and brought him out. His face was so whitened with prairio dust that the impression of the finger upon his cheek drawn across the face, left a black mark. The ride was miraculous! Railroad men say they would not have attempted the feat for the value of the whole Toledo road. The conductor called out to the wheel inspector to bring the boy into the baggage car. Supposing that he would have to face greater danger at the hands of the railroad men than he encountered under the train, he shot out into the darkness and was not heard from again. The conductor wanted to give him a free ride in the cars during the remainder of the journey. =====

DEATH AT THE FAIR-

BT W. B. VICKIBS.

Brave were the flaunting baonera 1 Load were the shaati of gleo And even the birds mng cheerlal

From every forest tree For the Fair nu at its glory, And tha Antnmn sunshine feli

Like a sea of molten splendor

On heads that were white and hoary— On younger men ai well, And women, true and tender. They are scattered here and there, In tbe hails and tbe open air,

And every eye bad brightened With the pleasure of tho Fair.

No need to tell the wondsra The Fair had gatheted in The fruits of a bounteous h»ivest—•

Tbe triumphs that brave men win Who fight the battle of life A With weapens guiltless of blood,

And canning of brain and hand Not with the senseless strife That comes w.th passion's flood,

And desolates the land.

No need to paint the beauty Of the floral offerings, Bicb with the hnes that summer

To every garden brings.

Ko thought of grief or sorrow(|^^t^irBJJ^t No vision of death or pain The busy crowd doth fcorrow-

To vex their souls in vain For the gentle wings of i'eace And Prosperity's bright smile,

And the calm of Ilappinees

Softjy rest upon the place Every fancy to beguile, Every heart to soothe and bled 8. War's alarum's now are still,

And from every hill and Yalley, Where the soldiers used to rally, Comos ti.e signal ''All is well.'

Yet ^within this gay enclosure Jioth an unseen phantom lurk Death id waiting with composure

While hfs servant dees his work Death, most terrible of angels, Walks btsido the strong and brnve,

By tho child of teuifer years

And his cold and icy fioger, From whose touch DO help can save, Points the w»y through grief and tears. To an open grave before them,

On whose Drink their feet take hold, While the son shines brightly o'er them, And their hearts beat high and bold.

Come stand beside the engine, i| And dote its migbty power, Vf Fdrth*labor it hath wrought lit je wonder of tbe hour I 1 It was true' in the time of trUI, 4

And the brave old engineer Hears the applauding shout With a quiet, well-pleased emlle,

With an eager, listeniog ear, As be gently meves about, Trying the water gusges, ft

Opening the furnace door, (It will close ah nevermore!) here the fiend of fire rages. 5,

was thero no guardian angel To whisper in bis ear That his hour of triumph was fleccinz.

And his hour of death drew near No, his fancies sped away On the wings of exaltation "For the danger near at hand, Let the timid care to-day

Master of the situation, At my post 1 stand." yg? Sailing still, he turned away,1W

Tried the water guage again,, Raised his eyes to tl^e fair day, Oped ttie throttle valve, atid then—*•-

Was it tho cannon's roar That broke upon the air, And hushed the inighly murmur

And bustle of the u'air No, a more fearful knell Than battle-field ere knew,

Mounts toward tbe brazen sky, Like the peal of a signal bell 1 hat calls to a sinking crew

With a terrible, warning cry. 'lis tbe engine, shivered and torn, Kent by the demon of steam,

And the sickle of death doth gleam Where'er its fragments are borne.

Like a cloud cf midnight blackness, Death's dark wings a moment hover O'er the scene of mortal terror,

Then aro lifted to discover Horrors that no tongue can tell Horrors that imagination

Oct. 8.

Shrinks to contemplate!

Dead and dying whore they fell, Kent by fearl'ullmutilation, Scores have met their fate Shrieks of antuish, shouts of fear,

Rise upon the tranquil air, Break upon the startled Fair, Thrill in every listening ear!

The busy Fair was over

The evening stars shone forth, And a fearlul silence reigned Over the quiet earth. But alas, the angel of Sorrow

To many a household came Witli the solemn shades of night, And lingered on the morrow, (And lingers still the same)

Their happiness to blight

For never can Time tho ruin repair, Or check the tear which ever starts, Nor fill the void in aching hearts That was wrought by death at the Fair!

AUTUMN WOODS.

Ere the northern gale,

The summer tresses of the trees are gone, Tbe woods of Autnmn, all around onr Yale, Have put their glory on.

The mountains that unfold

In 1 heir wide sweep the colored landscape round, Sen groups of giant kings in purple and gold,

That guard the enchanted ground.

I roam the woods that crown

Tho uplaud, where the mingled splendor glow, Whero the gay company of trees look down On tho the green fields below.

My stups ari not alono

In these bright walks the aweet southwest, at p!ay. Flies, nestling, where the painted leaves are strewn,

Along tho winding way.

And far in heaven, the while,

The sun, that sends the galo to wander here, Pours out'on the fair eai th his quiet smile— The sweetest of the year.

Where now the solemn shade—

Verdaro and bloom where many branches meet So grateful, when the noon of summer made Iho vail yssick with heat?

Let is through all the trees

Come the stiango rays the forest depths are bright Ueir sunny-co'ored foliage in tho breeze,

Twinkle like beams of light.

Tho rivulet late unseen,

Where, bickering through the thrnbs ts water tun, Shines with tho image of i's golden 6creen

And glimmerings of the sun.

But 'neath yon crimson tree,

Lover to listeniog maid might breathe bis flame, Nor m*rk, within its rosette csnopy, Her blush ofmaidvn shame.

Oh, Autumn, why so goon

Depart the hues that make tby forests glad Thy gentle wind and thy fair sunny no in, And leave thee wild and sad?

Ah I 'twore a lot too blest

Forever iu thy colored shades to stray Amid the kisses of the soft sou-hwest To roam.and dream for ay-

And leave the vain low strife

That makes iueu mad—the tug for wealth and power, The passions and the cares that wither life,

Aud wastes ica little hoar.
