Me northeasterly svorm that appeared to threaten us yesterday did not arrive, and to-day is one of the most devightful of the season, with a magnif- sent sea breeze, a cloudiess sky and & bright sun- whine, The sea is heavy, the long waves rolling in with a sullen roar, a if still angered at the dis- gurbance to which they were sudjected yesterday, But the bathing was pronounced to be good this morning, altbougt the breakers were strong, and bathers were cauuoued by the attendants of the grounds not to venture out a great distance on the ropes There Was & strong undertow, and the sea, m tne language of the careful bathing house qeeper at the Ocean Hotel, “would bear watcb- ing.” The waves came in with more force than the mexperienced supposed, for the eca was smooth and unradled beyond. But eyes accustomed to look upon Lhe Ocean could see that the long curling masses of water were possessed of @ giant's power, and bence their caution to the | bathers. it would bave been well for one poor feilow, whose lle was sacrificed to-day, if he had beeded ibe caution. A ORY OF DANGER. Between eleven and twelve o'clock the crowd on the beach was at its full, The surfopposite the Ocean House was alive with bathers, and the toss- ing about they received kept the air merry with ®creams and laughter, Olildren played in the Sands and mothers and nurses sat lazily beneath the shade of the summer honses. At the Mansion House ground the bathing seemed to be a trifle tater, for there were only about half a dozen in the water and a score of loungers on the sand. ‘The cliff was well covered with spectators, looking ev at the fun and frolic In the suri. Two power- fal looking men came from we Ocean Hotel bath- ing houses about a guarter-past eleven o’ciock, dressed in black pants and undershirts, and alter _ turoing two or three back somersets on the shore and rolling over cartwheel fasuion, on arms and legs outstretened like spoxes, piunged into She sari aad struck out through the Waves. There Wabarash tosee them, for the belief prevailed | ‘tbat they Were Johnson, the great English swim- mer who attempted the wonderful teat of swim- ming across the Britisa Channel, and Trautze, an | American expert Who 18 Maicued aguinst the Euglshbman jor the championship of the Word. But the men, although powerlui swimmers, proved pot to be the cuampions, but a couple of | gymnacts, who are at presenc engaged in an out- door exiubition of their strength and agility to the Vieitors at the Branch. One of these wen, it was maid, intended to swim over the course marked | out for Jounson and Trautze, trom the Ocean Hotel | to the West End and return, at a distance of about @ quarter Of a mile from the snore. He struck out boidly down the shore, while his companion cone tented bimseli with floating, diving, swimming | and rolling a short distance beyond the breakers opposite tue Ocean House.

An Excursion to Death—A Misplaced Switch Again Causes Dreadfal Siaugh- | ter—Three Men Killed Outright and Ten Others Woanded. | Amaccident occurred early yesterday morning | @t Cornwell's, a small station on the Kensington | branch of the Pennsylvania Railroad, sixteen | | miles south of Trenton, which has resulted | in the death of three persons and the wounding of ten others.

A fearful jam and a frightful collision was then | the result. In a few seconds an appalling spectacie | presented itself, Two passenger cars and three coal | | cars were shivered to atoms, and strewn among | the wreck were to be seen men, women and chil- | dren struggling to extricate themselves. Wedged | between the débris tay three stalwart men in the | agonies of death, who a few moments beiore were ult of health and vigor. Tne wildest excitement | | reigned for the time being. Crowds flocked to the | scene of horror and death, and efforts were made | | to rescue the ill-fated vicums, The lifeless bodies | Of the three unforiunates already alluded to were after much trouble extricated. The wounded ; im the meantime, who were ali men, were | | conveyed to the station to await medical treat- ment, which bad been telegraphed jor.

Yesterday afiernoon the rush to Coney Island ‘Was not so jarge as usual, yet tne beach exhibited to the gaze quite a large number of bathers, In front of the Railroad House about a dozen per- sons—men, women and children—were in the water. About four o’clock the cry came up from the beach that @ man and woman were drowning, Tue confusion among the nunared or 80 people in and about the pathing house saloon was, of course, great, Nobody seemed to know wWiisi to ao. No boat, no lines, no swimmers were to be Been. Two or three men rushed down tw tue wa- ver, stripping om their ciovhes as though they Were going to do something, but notuing was done, In the meantime tue man ana woman were struggling in the water, haviog gone down once OT twice and come up to the suriace. A gentie- man who was in the water at the time, aud who was himself drawn out vy the undertow, but, Being an amateur swimmer, saved lumsell, gives the following particulars :— “| wok a bathing suit about nalf-past three @ clock and Went into tue water.

The excursion train proceeded on its way to Long Branco 43 $00 as another engine was pro- vided. rhe inference to be drawn from the statements given is that the switchman had the switches turned all right when the engine of the freizbt train passed ip on the side track, and that while in @ state of absent mindedness he again turned the switch when the excursion train was seen ap- proaching, and thus opened the Way for a coluision With tue freight train.
