The Gford street church in this city on Wednes- Gay, evening rejected, by a vote of 158 agalnst 95, the proposal to send lay ‘tes tothe General Conference.

In the case of Craig vs. Sprague for breach of marriage the award of a hun- 4 thousand dollars damages having been already communicated by telegraph, further developments near the close of the trial con- tributed to establish the line of defence as one ‘of unparalleled atrocity. A Chicago physician ‘haa made a deposition that he had been con- sulted by Miss Craig in regard to the procure- ment of an abortion; but as the trial was on the eve of being concluded he discovers that Miss Craig was not the person who go con- ‘sulted him, and makes the admission to Miss ‘Craig's counsel, It will be remembered that another physician called for the defence refused to state for what purpose he had been consulted by Miss Craig, throwing himself upon his professional prerogative of secrecy and thereby casting a doubt upon the minds of the jury as to the chastity of the plaintiff. There is no doubt the whole defence was a diabolical plot to ruin the woman’s reputation without ‘the shadow of foundation from beginning to end. This brace of medical worthies should be tied together ina sack and thrown into Lake Michigan, while the gushing youth of fifty— their employer—should be left to suffer the stings of his own conscience and to the ineffa- ble torment of amending his orthography until called to his final reckoning. The sympathy of the entire community is with the plaintiff, and the verdict is everywhere pronounced a righteous one. Proposed Street Improvemente—Bronadwuy. What shall we do with our streets ‘‘in order that the demand of transit for traffic be fully answered?” This is the point of perhaps the widest and most enduring interest of the many the Mayor handles in his recent message. Mr. Hall makes, looking to this end, some proposi- tions that will be accepted by all as giving great assistance in the public necessity with little change and small tutlay; and he makes others that, because they are revolutionary and almost iconoclastic, and because they seem to threaten a very great burden of expense, will meet with strenuous opposition. His proposi- tion in regard to Broadway is of this latter class. For a man to at once propose the abolition of Broadway as we at present know It, and the construction of a Broadway entirely new and strange to us, naturally startles all conservative propriety, and in some @ear old conservatives it awakens emo- tions so deep that they have hardly bDreath left to gasp out a few expressions of amazement, Mr. Hall would give the whole of the present sidewalk of Broadway on both sides from Fourteenth street to the Battery to the carriage way, thus very effectually ‘‘re- lieving” that thoroughfare of its chronic jam. But where then would the pedestrians travel? He would make new “‘sidewalks” at the ex- pense of the first stories of the houses, cut- ting away so much of the fronts of the stores as might be necessary for the purpose, and supporting the front walls of the buildings above on iron pillars. Thus the footway would be a continuous arcade on either side the whole length of the street, such as there is at eome points on the Rue de Rivoli in Paris. We believe an improvement might be made on this improvement, and one that would com- mend it more to the public fancy, and this would be, taking the necessary width not only from the first story of houses, but from the first and second stories together. By this means the valuable shops of the first story would not be made the gloomy little traps that they otherwise necessarily must be, and the pillars to sustain the upper wall, rising to such a height, would give opportunity for an architectural design that, taking the whole street together, would have a fine effect. Mr, Hall calls the attention of the Common Council to the fact that as this is all below Fourteenth street Albany legislation is not necessary to carry it out, but that it can be Gone at the will of the city authorities. Now, the speculative eye willat once take In the possible proportions of the job that might be constructed on this basis, and whoever knows the proclivity of our Aldermen for jobbery will understand that they only need the bint the Mayor has given to proceed at once to the distribution of the spoils to be dug out of all ‘those Broadway store fronts.

The one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the settlement of this old town was celebrated here to- day, amid the ringing of bells, booming fot cannon and general rejoicings. A procession was formed in the morning and marched through the lower village to the dopot, where It was joined by « large number of citizens and natives, and proceeded to a mammoth tent, erected near by. At least 10,000 persons were present, The assemblage Was called to order by Mr, F. Adams, Chairman of the Vom: mittee Arrangements, was offered by Rev.

About 100 yards north of Annayo'ls Junction a sudden shock was felt through the entire train. The par- ties in the President’s car supposed it was caused by @ sudden application of the brakes. It was at this time that the engine struck the cow and pushed her temporarily from the track. By the time the engine, tender, baggage and postal cars had passed the cow staggered back again upon the track. The smoking car, which came next, was imme- diately thrown off the track, being laid obliquely across it. At this point the coupling between the smoking car and the postal car broke, and the en- gine, baggage car and postal car shot on ahead, the engineer being ignorant of what had taken place. The engine had come a considerable distance when it was discovered that the conductor's bell rope was broken, and then the engine was reversed and backed to the scene of the disaster. the cow, which was the immediate cause of tne ac- a, had been struck before by the half-past cig!

Through his efficient management and direction lights were soon procured and preparations made to attend to the wounded. ‘The scene at this stage was appalling. ‘Those who were injured were crying out and groaning with pain aud agony; those who had were ing wildly hither and thither looking after friends and acquaintances and endeav- oring to ascertain the extent of the disaster, The women and children, as might be expected, were in aterrible condition through fear. The accident occurred at a deep cut in the road, which fact contributed to the destruction of the cars by jamming them up t one another. The smoking car was completely demolished, nothing betng left of it but the trucks and a few boards of the floor. At the time of the accident the car was well filled with smokers. The escape of any of them trom instant death ts simply miraculous. the smoking car was thrown off the track the ladies’ ely behind it, and a chair car in of that, ran on top of the smoking car, one side ofeach resting on the bank. In this way the gy ey in the smoking car were tempo- marly buried. e concussion of the train instan- taneously extinguished all the lights in the cars, and the total darkness without and within added consi- derably to the dismay and confusion. In extricating the buried passengers from their perilous situation some ludicrous as wel) as affecting scenes occurred. Conductor Duvall heard the voice of @ Woman cailing for assistance, aud proseezing to the spot fonnd her and two chiidren wedged tn between portions of the wreck. He pulled them out, and, strange to say, found that with the excep- tion of a few scratches they were uninjured. One oid gentleman was running up and down calling for his gold spectacles and asserting that they had cost him twenty dollars; others were shouting for their carpet bags, umbrellas and canes, In the somer- sault of the cars some had lost their watches and pocketbooks. Those in the sleeping cars who had retired to rest were in the worst plight. Many of them rushed out without coats, pantaloons, boots or hats, and 80 at was the confusion that it was dificult to find anything. Mr, W. Prescott Smith at once telegraphed to Washington and Baltimore for aid. By midnight engines had arrived from Wash ington and Baltimore with surgeons to take care of the wounded, and road laborers to clear away the wreck. Dr. Scott, a physician residing in the vicinity, was also aroused and brought to the rescue. Under the direction of Mr. Smith, who seemed to be ubiquitous, the officers and hands on board the train, and auch of the passengers as were uninjured and had retained their presence of mind, were set at work assisting and providing for the wounded. The mattresses were taken out of the sleeping berths and laid on the platform of the station for those who were most seriously injured. Others were assisted to seats, The surgeons, a8 soon as they arrived, set about dressing the wounds of those who were injured. The laborers commenced to clear away the wrecked cars and get them off tie road, so that the train, or so much of it as remained, — proceed on ite way. It was half-past four o’clock When the train moved off, and it arrived in Baltimore goon after five. During ali the excitement the President seemed unusually cool and unconcerned. He evident! thought it was not his funeral, and he smoked cigar with as mach complacency as if he had béen sitting in the White House, Mrs. Grant was ouch frightened, and the President did not leave bis car. Secretary Boutwell, however, was out offer- ing bis services to the wounded. It was impossible to-day to obtain a full list of the wounded, partly oe to the studied reticence of the empioyés of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail- ‘and partly from the fact that most of those who were injured went on either to hora ™ ton or Baltimore, where they were taken care of Dy their friends, or scattered among the notels. ‘The most ‘seriously injured was @ man named Weil, from Macon, Ga. He was in the smoking car, and one side of his face was cut tn a fearful manner; his skult was also factured and he was otherwise injured internally. itis feared he cannot recover. ‘This afternoon he was taken to Baltimore on a bed baggage car.

AS it was announced that the President, with his family and Secretaries Rawlins and Cox and a few friends and relatives, were expected to arrive tn the city from Washington in the “Owl train,” due at Jersey City at half-past six o'clock tn the morning, quite a crowd congregated at the ferry landing, foot of Cortlandt street, and also around the depot in Jer- sey City, bent on having a glimpse of the distin- guished party; but they were disappointed. Owing to the serious accident to the train near Annapolis Junc- tion, in Maryland, on the Washington Branch Rail- road, its arrival was delayed and the President did not arrive at the depot until half-past two o'clock in the afternoon, at which time comparatively but few were present to see the Chief Magisttate and his friends leave the cars, ‘The party very quietly walked through the depot and embarked on the Desbrosses street ferryboat, from which, on landing this side, the whole party immediately took passage on board the Mary Powell, which has her pier alongside the ferry slip, and a few minutes later the steamer left en her trip to West Point. There was no oficial re- ception, no extraordinary display of bunting, no oMectal roar of gunpowder, but the arrival and de- parture of the Presidential party was as quiet and private as it could possibly be arranged. LECTURE BY HENRY BEAGH. Mr. Henry Bergh, President of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animais, lectured before the ‘Third Union Co-operative Land and Building Society on “Cruelty to Animals,” mm Co-operative Hall, No. 214 Bowery, last evening. On account of the disa- greeabie weather the hall was only partially filled about sixty gentiemen listening attentively to the address. The lecture was delivered as one in the course of public meetings iy eo by the socnety every Thursday evening. Dr. F. © presided, and previous to introducing the speaker read a let- ter to the society from eA L. Perry, of Williams Goll town, Mass. The letter commends the purposes and Workings of the society, likening ier opera- tion to that of the peopie’s savin) inks in Ger- many. In conclusion he says, ‘You are right—go ahead,” and predicts the success of co-operation. ‘The speaker was then introduced. He delivered his Jecture in a pleasing tone and manner, and the sub- ject matter was both practical and novel in its ap- plication. He was glad to see the subject of the protection of the lower animals gitowing in the minds of the community. He sketched the evil les- sons and causes of the past and their baleful effects, a getting the wrecked cars off the track, mains of the smoking car were piled in a heap and burned for the purpose of getting the old tron. ‘The other cars were dragged off to one side by means of engines and ro and at six o'clock to-night the road was all cleared and the trains run- ning a8 usual. Mr. W. Prescott Smith de- serves much oredit for the attention he has bestowed upon such of the Wounded as were nnable to reach home and friends.
