Railroad Accident
   On Wednesday, the train on the Mississippi Central railroad met with an accident by the misplacement of a switch. Four cars were considerably smashed. Mr. Binn, an express manager, not connected with the office in this city, was much hurt by being crushed between two safes. A news boy had both legs and an arm broken, and he was considered to be in a dangerous condition.
