Sudden Death—Racroad Accrients. Thomas McCully, of Southwark, a prominent member of the democratic party, and at one time | acandidate for Congress from the first district, died very suddenly this morning at his residence. The paseengers by the 9 o’clock train from New York, yeeterday, were detained nearly five hours atthe Mill Creek bridge, in consequence of the breaking of an axle of the third passenger car from the engine. The fragments of the axle tore ay the wheels of the carstollowing. As the whole train was about going on the bridge, the damaged cars were joviled off te track, and the Jadies’ car teli down the embankment on’ its side. Mt is considered almosta miracle that no persoa war seriously hurt Only one lady had her face weverely scratched. The passengers were very much annoyed, particularly those who were on their way to Washington. A similar accident occurred to-day, detaining the train until three o'clock.
