| Railroad accident |
| The Columbus (Ky.) Confederate News, of the 29th ult., has the following: |
| As the up train of the Mobile & Ohio
Railroad was entering Columbus on Sundaymorning, the cars met with an
obstruction, just as they were passing over the between the bluff and
the depot, by which one car was thrown
from the track and tumbled into the ravine below. This car
was turned completely over. Another car
was overset, but struck upon the bank. Fortunately no lives were lost;
but several were seriously injured, among whom we have learned the
names of Col. Wright, Mr. Hubbard, a merchant of this city, and a Mr.
Weaver, a soldier returning from
Bowling Green
