J.) dispatch^ When the fast express on the Pennsyl­ vania Railroad, leaving Jersey City at 6:15 to-night, rounded the -curve near the Meadow coal bridge, about five miles out, the engineer saw through the thick tog the outlines of a car on the track only a few hundred feet ahead. The express was run­ ning at the rate of forty-five miles an hour. The engineer applied the air-brakes as quickly as he could and whistled the dan­ ger signal, but his attempt was in vain. The engine struck the car with terrific force, telescoping it\pd throwing the fragments in every direction. j . | The panting engine had scarcely f topped when the train bound east, leavMHtNewaftk on the Lehigh Valley Road at wt&s dashed into the forward end of thef immigrant. Engineer Owen Hall, peeping through the fog, saw the wreck. He did everything in his power to stop his train on its death- bearing course, but it was too late. With an awful crash the Newark train rushed upon the overturned car and was thrown down4 the embankment. Over and over rolled the caw of human freight, ana upon the night air rose the horrible shrieks of the dying. Dark outlines of the train lying wrecked in the valley, and the cars rolling one on top of the ou$$r, presented a ghast­ ly picture. When the shock had passed the dazed passengers left the trains as best they could and huddled together, too startled to speak. The Qrst to recover was the engineer of the Jersey City train. He gathered the fright­ ened people together and ordered them to render all possible assistance to the in­ jured. • All this time the cries of those wholly or partially covered by the wreck made the uninjured turn pale with terror. The engicoer and his willing assistants were powerless to aid some of the poor creatures, while their united efforts were sufficient to drag some of the bruised from under the wreck. When the first wounded man was tiken from the debris everybody cried for a physician, but in the whole crowd of willing woruers not one physician could be found. At 9:30 o'clock a relief train was sent to the wreck from Jersey City, loaded with doctors, reporters, beds, food, etc. As the relief train neared the scene of the disaster crowds of men and women could be seen through the heavy m st re­ turning on foot to the city. When the medical staff reached the wreck the scene was indeed heartrending. Mixed in a huge mass lay the two trains, while for hundreds of feet around was piled timber of all shapes. Beside the track lay the Jersey City train. The engine was tipped over the right embankment, and in a long, gro­ tesque line behind it lay the derailed cars. To the left of this train, reduced to a mass of splinters, were the remains of what ap­ peared to be an immigrant caboose. The car was shivered to atoms and underneath lay some of the mangled bodies of the dead and dying. On the left and stringing down the em­ bankment was the Lehigh Valley train, and at the bo torn lay. the engine, hissing and smoking, the legs and bodies of the wound­ ed protruding from the wreck. The {mssengers who had escaped injury were ending valuable assistance. Strfttchers were immediately furnished by the relief train, and the injured and dead were carried into the baggage car. It was a horrible sight. The first body to be removed was the headless trnnk of a wom­ an.' The feet and limbs, with the clothing torn completely from them, protruded from the splinters of the caboose. Strong hands soon elc.ired the xlebrss from above the mangled form, and it was taken to the car. The next was .the form of a man with^his head torn completely from his body. Then ollowed two or three men who were buried completely out of sight under the dead bod­ ies of their companions. They were bruised and broken, and completely saturated with blood. They were moaning pitifully, but subsequently recovered sufficiently to give their history. During all this time the passengers who had escaped kept up their , search for the bodies of their friends. It soon appeared that the only ones injur­ ed were from the emigrant caboose, which lay splintered between the engine of the Jersey City train and the last cars of the Lehigh Valley. All attention, therefore, was being bestowed on the emigrants, when low moans were heard coming from under the engine of the Lehigh train. The eager rescuers rushed quickly down the embankment, and there lay the insensible form of Owen Hal], the engineer of the wrecked train. His legs were held down by the heavy framework of the massive en-j? gine. Wdling hands soon relieved the poor fellow, and his injuries were attended to. In a few moments groans were heard from the Lehigh wreck again, and the bleeding face of Fireman Stewart Bowers could be seen through the long meadow grass in which lay the engine truck. His skull was fractured, and the blood trickled down his upturned face. With difficulty he was dragged to the relief car, and it was found that he had sustained internal injuries.

I > an interview to-day, Mr. Fitzpatrick, Biel s Canadian counsel, said: "It is im- possiblejto pretend that Riel was unfairly tried. No doubt, at the time of the out­ break in the Northwest, grievances existed which have since been remedied. Riel com­ menced the agitation from purely political motives. Many people still consider that, he rendered valuable services to the coun­ try. Doubtless the e.xc tement again in­ duced in Riel mental aberration, rendering him incapable of - keeping the rebellion within legal limits.

He fears the last hope is gone, and expressed the private opinion that he would have to meet the fate the recent sentence imposed. 6RANT ANir ANDY J0HI History of the Differences Between the President and the Gene; ' ^ Armies.

Grant ""-at dinner. There were many courses, slowly served, and Jhe entertainment lasted several hours. e drscupsed many matters sntrfrested by his trip around the world, and among other things he said to n e that when in China I rinoe Kung. who'Was Urgent and real ruler during \ the minority of the Kmperor, told him of 1 their controversy with Japan. War waa about to be declared, : nd the Prince thought it would be a long and blooJv one, and asked General Grant if he would act as arbt- ! tr«tor. The General declined for want of time, i but principally because he was a pri\a e person ! and had no power to enforce his decision. He i Bugttested, however, the terms of compromise, j When in .Japan shortly after. 1 he Mikado's Min­ isters told him their side of tile trouble, and re- I vealed the iact that several of the European ; Governments were actively stirring np the strife [. on both sides', hoping to benefit bvthe war. The ' Bame request was n.;uic to bim on the part of ! the Japanese Government--to act as arbitratoj-- j and in again declining he stated tne substance : of the compromise he had advised tor China, i The two nations adopted substantially the ; terms proposed by General Grant, and a disas- j trous Conflict was averted. - | The conversation drifted into a consideration ; a load of wood atrik<nn i>ic nnA of his relations with President Andrew John- ; ®loaao1 wooa> Striking his head and rup-; I son.

A St. LOUIIHO Entitled t the Great Townley Estate. rst Louis telegram.] ' The s Liverpool Weekly Post of recent date announces that by an act of Parlia­ ment, passed August 4, the British Gov­ ernment has decided to pay over to all the legal heirs o£ the Lawrence Townley es­ tate their proper portion of the money. This estate amounts to the enormous sum of $800,000,000 in money and 400,000 acres of land. The estate would have been divided thirty-four years ago, but, through the false claim of one Talmy, it was thrown into chancery, where it re­ mained twenty-six years. The estate was inherited by * four brothers of the Chase family, three of whom-- William, Aquila, and Thomas--came to this ccnmtry before the Revolutionary war. The direct heirs of these three brothers in America number about 800. Many of them are supposed to reside in Missouri. One of those who} Lave put in claims is L. T. Austin, of No. '224 East Stein street, South St. Louis. He will be entitled to several million dollars when the • estate is settled. Mr. Austfn says that a number of the other heirs who have not put in their claims are supposed to be residents of St. Louis. Mr. Stein's grandmother prosecuted the claim in 1840, but died at the advanced age of 100 years while it was still in litigation. Mr. Austin is now working on the Transfer Railway in South St. Louis. TOOMBS AND THE UNION PRISONER. He Secure settle Release from I.ibby of the Son of a Former Sweetheart. [Centralia (111.) special. I The approaching death of Rob Toombs inspires people to tell incidents of his pub­ lic life and service. A story was told to your correspondent to-day which is worthy of the public print One day, while Toombs was in the rebel Cabinet, he drove up to Gen. Winder's office at Libby, and asked to see a prisoner whom he named, and who turned out to be a mere boy, who had en­ listed in a New England regiment and was captured and taken to Libby. Toombs was taken to the boy, and the two were left alone together. No one knew what trans­ pired, but in a day or two the prisoner's release was ordered, and he was sent home. In former days Bob had formed a fancy for the girl who was now the soldier boy's mother. The tender memories of the past were not eliminated from the mind of the arch rebel by the clash of war, and a moth­ er's appeal was not allowed to go unheard. It is unfortunate tor history and posterity that it cannot be pi eserved as it was told, ft had the local coloring of conversations with, and statements made by, the chief actors, and of the situations of parties and persons as the event* occurred, invaluable as a portraiture and esti­ mate of the times. I said in mv address that Gen. Grant performed services to his country which were unwritten (juite as important as any that were recorded, and I think this narra­ tive will bear me out. This is the substance of the story: Johnson began, the day after the assassination of Mr. Lincoln, to loudly proclafm at all times and places, with constant reiteration, the shibbo­ leth, "Treason is odious and must be punished, and the chief rebels shall be hangied. To give eiTect to this sentiment, as soon as he was in- augured he insisted upon the United States Courts in Virginia finding indictments against all the leading members of the Confederacy. He also wanted the officers in the rebel army who had left the regular army to join the rebel-' lion to be summarily dealt with by court- martial.' These movements of the 1 resident produced the greatest consternation through­ out the South. The Confederate leaders ap­ pealed to Grant to protect them on the parole he had given. He saw Johnson on the subject, only,, to be in­ formed that the President was "by* the Consti­ tution commander-in-chief of the army, and that anything done by the commandinsfGeneral on the field was done subject to his approval or rejec ion, and he rejected the terms. General Grant urged that the rebels hqd surrendered on these conditions, disbanded their organizations. Portion ofd) ^submitted universally to the situation, and were K carrying out In good faith their part of the agreement, and every consideration Of both honor and expediency demanded equally good faith oh the part of the Government. The other course would have led to an endless guerrilla warfare, conducted in a country admirably adapted for it by desperate and hopeless men. Johnson obstinately adhered to his view, and assumed the authority of commander, when Grant flatly told him that if there were to be any courts-martial one must be called to try General Grant first; that he would by every means in his power protect his parole and ap- p al to Congress and the country. In the halt called by this attitude of General Grant a very remarkable change occurred in the views and policv of President Johnson. General Grant discovered that the most fre iueut and "favored visitors to the W hite House were the men whom the President had proscribed. In the General's opinion Johnson's loyalty was subordinate to, if not entirely dependent upon, his entire enmity to the slaveliolding oligarchy. He was a i oor white, had been a journeyman tailor, and, notwithstanding the distinguished public positions he had held, he could not break through the class barrier, and was treat­ ed socially with contempt by this proud aris­ tocracy. When they plunged into rel>ellion he saw his opportunity. He believed in the power of t>he Government, and thought that the time had come when he could defeat his enemies, confiscatc tReir property, humiliate their pride, and possibly destroy them. The absorbing ambition and passion of his life had been to be received and treated as one of them by the oligarchy. Having tailed iu that and- suffered insult and indignity in the effort, he became one of the most vindictive of men. He saw them foiled in their rebellion, defeated and impoverished, and now he wanted to kill them. While he was devising means to overcome General Grant's resistance to this last purpose, the leaders of the old feudalism called upon him. They admittrfl their former treat­ ment and'justified it. They said that in all ages and»countries where caste distinctions ex­ isted, conditions were always possible which promoted men who had achieved success from the lower into the noble order. As President of the United States, he became, regardless of birth and ancestry, not only a member of their order, but its leader. Johnson was wild with delight; ambition and pride were both satis- fled. He became as anxious to sustain and perpetuate in some form a system which had given the hignest social and political distinc­ tion to a tew great families as he had been 5 CHINESE STAMPEDED. A House Containing: Mongol Laborers At­ tacked by a Mob Near Kock Springs. ^ [Omaha special. J A dispatch ieceiy«d at Union Pacific headquarters state# that a mob of white men attacked the siection house at the old town of Rock Springs, Wyoming, three miles from the coal-mining town of the same name. The house was occupied by thirty Chinamen employed as railroad sec­ tion men. The mob yelled and shouted, fired a volley of revolver shots into the air, and bombarded the house with clubs and 6tont s, and smashed every window. The Chinamen were frightened nearly to death, supposing that another massacre was about to be perpetrated. They ran out of the housi and fled to the neighboring hills, where they remained all night, suffering intensely from cold, as they were out half clad. _ • SPLINTERS. THE letter of Chauncey M.

The Presl dent sent for him, and said that the radical measuers of Congress were revolutionary and would destroy the country. The war was over, and the Republic wanted peace, and that was possible only by a union of all sections. Tho irovisional governments provided for the se­ ceded States were temporary expedients without constitutional authority, and the States had all the rights and should possess all the powers they had before the war. He had perfected a scheme to accomplish this result, and with Gen. Grant's assistance its success was assured. He would by proclamation direct the rebel States to send to Washington their full quota of Senators and Representatives. He had assur­ ances from enough members from the North who, united with them, would make a quorum of one house at lea-t, if not both. The Congress thus formed he would recognize and install at the Capitol. If the other North­ ern members did not choose to Join, they would be a powerless rump meeting in some hall. To the General's suggestion that this would start the Civil War afresh, the President replied: "They who do it will be the rebels, but If you sustain me, resistance will be impos­ sible." He appealed to Grant to stand by him in the crisis and thev would be the saviors of the Re­ public. After endeavoring for a long time in vain to convince the President of the folly of such a course and its certain failure, 110 matter who sustained it. Grant finally told him that he would drive the Conuress so constituted out of the Capitol at the point of the baynot, give pos­ session of the building to the Senators and Representatives from the loyal States, and pro­ tect them. If necessary, he would appeal to the country and to the army he had so recently mustered out of service. Mr. Johnson asked if he did not recognize the powers vested in the President by the 1 onstitution, ani if he would refuse to obev the Commander-in-Chief. Gen­ eral ('rant srfid that under such circumstances he most certainly would. Shortly afterward the President sent for Gen. Grant, and said to him that the. relations of our Government with Mexico were very delicate, and he wished him to go to the ftty of Mexico at once on a very important mission. The Gen­ eral knew that this was to get him out of the country, nnd put it in the power of the Presi­ dent to 1 all, as his successor to Washington, some otticer upon whom he could rely. He re­ plied that if tho appointment was a diplomatic one he declined it; if it WHS a military one he refused to obev, because the General of the1 army <o:ild not be ordered to aHireign country with whkh we are at peace. The interview was a stormy <>np, but the subject was droDiteJ. One day the General was sent \N est on a tour of insj ection. He knew that (ten. Sherman was to be his successor, and in him lie had ab­ solute confidence. The outspoken loyalty of that great soldier prevented the project ever being renewed It is at this date needless to speculate upon what might have happened had Gen. Grunt actively assisted or passively obeyed the Presi­ dent. No one douuts the courage or obstinacy i t Andrew Johnson, and only a man < f tqual firmness and determination could have pre­ vented a most calamitous and unfortunate strike at the most critical period of the recon­ struction of the republic. \ ours very trulv.
