TERRIBLE RAILROAD ACCIDENT. Buffalo, Dec.18.-â€"~The New York ex- press train from Cleveland, on the Lake Shore road, due here at 12:45 p.m., bein'r behind time, when two miles this side on Angola, either by faulty rail or fog, met with a serious accident about three p.m. Two rear passenger cars were thrown offtlie track and rolled over an embankment of twenty feet. LATER. The accident on the Lake Shore Railroad is more serious than was at first reported. The rear car went over an embankment of fifty feet, viras set on fire by the stove, and out of fifty passengers only two‘ escaped, the rest were burned to dea'h, and all that isieft is a mass of blackened and charred re- mains, without any means of ascertaining their names. The accident occurred at the Big Sister Bridge, a quarter of a mile east of Angola. One train has arrived with the unhurt passengers and a few of the wound- ed. The balance of the wounded will be here about midnight. Every preparation is made to care for their wants by the citizens of Buffalo. A large number of physicians of Buffalo left on the four o’clock special train to assist the wounded. Amonn‘ the killed the name of Mrs. Hubbard, Of St. Catharines, is reported. Buffalo, Dec. 19, l a.m.â€"Iii the railroad accident near Angola, as near as can now be ascertained, about fortyâ€"live were killed and thirty-five wounded. â€"â€"-â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"â€"_____._ Tiiu CiiiCAGO Pom: TitAirrL-l‘he pork packing business, in Chicago, is making giant strides this season, and operators have no hesitation in expressing the opinion that the season will practically terminate about New Year’s day. The receipts of hogs for the week just. closed were 133.881 live, and 7,168 dressed; total, 141,049 head. This is the largest number ever received in any one week in that or any other city of the World. The receipts two weeks ago were 111,240, an increase of 20,809 in favor of the week just closed. IDIOT CHILDRENâ€"Dr. Hall, Superinten- dent of the Ohio State Insane Asylum, said recently: "A citizen of the State married an intelligent lady, who bore him ten chil- dren. After the birth of the first three the father became intemperate, and during his career as an inebriate four children were born unto him. He then reformed entirely, and had three otl‘e s. The first three were smart and intelligent, and became useful men and women, and so of the last three; and of the four born to him during his ine- briety, two have died in the lunatic asylum, another is there, and the fourth is an idiot." This is no isolated case. The records of every lunatic asylum. if examined, would fully corroborate the statistics published a few years since in regard to the idiots of Massachusetts, and prove most conclusively that the use of liquors is impairing the health and reason and shortening the lives, not only of those who drink, but oftheir off- spring. ‘Eleclors of Vaughanâ€"R.

The members of the Young Ladies' select class in the Thornhill W. M. Sab~ bath School, which for a number ofyeais has been taught by M rs. Kyle, wishing to give to their teacher a testimony of their appreciation of her disinterested labors for their spiritual advancement, prepared for her a pleasing surprise on Friday evening last. At a little after seven o’clock, the young ladies composing the class, and a number of friends, in’ all thirty or forty. rendezvoused at the resi- dence of Mr. Gallanough, and thence pro- ceeded in a body to the residence of the party to be surprised. Mrs. Kyle, al- though taken completely unawares, gave to all a hearty welcome, and by her cheer- ful manner and sociality soon made every one feel at case. As soon as the company Was comfort- ably settled, Miss Sheppard, in behalf of the class, presented to Mrs. Kyle nthree books of poems, elegantly bound, accom- panied with the address, which was read by Miss Jennie Lane :â€" followmg “DEAR Townesâ€"We have gathered here this evening to express our thanks to you for your kindness in coming Sabbath after Sabbath to instruct us in the best of List of Letters Farmer’s Boot & Shoe Storeâ€"John Barron Stray Pig Richmond Hill Hotel.â€"â€" J.

On Monday next theZelectors of each Township are required, by law, to assem- ble at the Town Hall, for the purpose of nominating Reeves, Deputy Reeves and Councillors for the ensuing year. We trust that the electors of the Townships of Vaughan and Markham will make it a point to put in an appearance in force, as it is most desirable that those who have to pay heavy taxes should exercise caution in their selection of persons to preside at our Township Councils; it is useless to find fault, when the collector calls, if our taxes are burdensome through the recklessness of those we em- power, annually, to manage our finances. Now is the time to guard against extrava- gance in our Township and County ex‘ penditure, high salariesand fat; jobs to a favoured few ; if electors are blinded by political partizanship in making their se- lection, we may look for incompetent councils and high taxes. “'c are not in a position to speak positively as to the names of all the candidates for Munici- pal honors in Markham and Vaughan, but expect that, after Monday next, we shall have the full programme; so far as our information serves us we learn that Mr. Peter Patterson and Mr. Thomas Grahame are to be the ca: didates for the Reeveship of Vaughan ; W. Hartman, R J. Arnold, John C. McQuarrie and James McNair, are spoken of as likely to conâ€" test the election of Deputy Reeves in the same Township ;- the old councilmen are the only persons yet spoken of as being in the field. For the Township; of Markham, we learn that Mr. James Robinson, of Markham Village, will contest the all knowledge,â€"thc knowledge ol‘tlie Bible. We beg that you will accept this slight token of our esteem arid'regard, and, though small in intrinsic value, we trust that it will be re- garded by you as an expression of our ap- preciation of the uuwearied zeal you have shown in thus instructing us. We fear you may at times have felt discouraged by not. seeing greater results from your labors, but. we trust that the bread cast upon the waters will be found after many days; you have sown the seed, and in due 1111].: will doubt- less reap the harvest. We trust that the iii- structions imparted by you will enabe us better to perform our part in the great work of life, and though in after years our lots may be cast far apart, we h.pe, when all our labors here are ended, that we will stand with you as an unbroken band around the throne of the great Teacher; that you will receive from him a. crown, bright with jew- els, and hear the welcome words “ Well done, good and faithful servant, thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things, enter thou iii- to the joy of thy Lord.’ ” l\lrs. Kyle replied in an appropriate and touching manner, thanking the young people for their present, assuring them that she valued it especially as be ing an expression of the feelings of those with whom she was engaged in the Sub bath School, and that she was encouraged to go on with greater zeal in the dis- charge of a duty rendered all the more pleasant from this new evidence of their attachment, and concluded by expressing her wishes for the welfare of her charge. A sumptuous rcpast was next prepared and partaken of, after which a couple of hours were spent in social conversation and amusement, concluded with prayer by the Rev. Mr. Garbutt, after which the party dispersed. IION. T. D. MCGEE.

It was ostensibly given by my enterpris- THURSDAY Am, FRIDAY, Dec. 26 3, 27-_ log neighbour, Mr. John Abell, as Preâ€" payment. It is supposed that the robbers are the same that robbed the Williamsburgh bank teller in Wi.liam-street, some time ago in broad daylight, of a bag containing nio- ney and checks to the value of$ll,000; the , same probably, that robbed the cashier cfl Higgins (la 00., dealers in carpets, while he was on his way with acai‘pet-bag containing $16,000. With which to pay the workmen in Messrs. Higgins (1*. 00’s factory. In that robbery they were driving in a cart and leaped therefrom, knocked the. cashier down and robbed him. After which they hastily jumped into the vehicle, and drove off at high speed. It is also conjectured that these are the fellows who attacked the cash- ier for the firm ofRoach til Sons. iron found- crs, while he was walking in Rivcrton St., with a bag containing $16,000 in bank bills. In this last attempt, however, the. thieves were unsuccessful, their intended victim proving more than a match for his assail- ants, despite the severe wound which they inflicted on his head in the beginning ofthc encounter. In each case the mode of attack and flight has been the same; in each case have they been made in broad. daylight, and in each case so rapidly has ' thedeed been consummated that no one of the party has yet been positively identified.

Parliamentary returns show that one third of the men of Hertfordshire,Combridgeshire, and Norfolk. who married in 1865. had to make their mark instead of si'tning their name to the register; and that more than a third of the men of Suffolk, Bedfordshire, and Stafford- sliire, were in the same discreditable predica- ment. In South Wales, more than half married; and in Bedfordshiro, where the children are put early to work on straw plaiting the proportion of the uninstructed very little less. In Liverpool, out Of'2il,740 persons who were apprehended in 1866, only 253 could read and write well; while Of720 children, dealt with under the Juvenile 0f fenders' Att, not one could do so.

Mr. Grahame and his friends feel that Mr. Patterson is a strong opponent, and it will need all the strategy that can be brought to bear to prevent Mr. Patter- son's success, hence the reason for conâ€" necting the supper with the Vaughan Agricultural Society; the ruse is not. a bad one, and may appear to those at. a distance as not. being for electioneering purposes, but it is well understood in and around Burwick.

Nothing is more com- mon than to see a boy passing along the street with a bag ofgold or a large bundle of bills carelessly carried under his arm, and nothing could be easier for a thief than to snatch the treasure, and vanish in the crowd that surges through Wall street during the street during the busiest hours ofthe day. with a mark. A SMART FELLOW â€"â€"On Tuesday, a tra. veller playeda, singular trick upon the land- lord of an inn not 100 miles from Todmor- den. Having taken dinner and a bottle of wine, he fell into conversation with the- landlord, and said he would teach him how to draw threepeniiy and the best ale out. of the same cask. Boniface was, of course, desirous to learn so profitable an art; and the parties (lescended into the cellar. tak- ing with them a large gimlet. The travel- ler bored a hole in one end of an 18 gallon cask of beer, and requested the landlord to place his finger upon the hole; he then bored a hole in the other end of the cask, and requested the landlord to place a. finger upon that. He then left the cellar under pretence of fetching his apparatus, and de- camped, leaving the landlord with his fin- l gers fully employed in taking care of his beer, and minus dinner and a bottle ofwine. When the landlord’s patience wasexhausetd . in waiting, he. called for assistance, got the 1 holes in the cask stopped, and in the future will be satisfied to draw one sort of beer afi- Myers’ evening sales will be con. tinned for a week.
