This accident was specially; "deplorable, how ever it-may have been brought ; about whether by accident or carelessness. We have endeavored to ascertain vs many of the facts as we 'icould.'so. aa' to' blame those wfco; should, either be' negligent or guilty of gross . carelessness, pr , exculpate those who may be unjxidtly accused.

' ever charged the Goldsboro Rifles ' or any memberof that company with tampering with the danger signals-t. They, did say, and do say, after investigation, that the danger cord, . controlling the air-brakes on the cars, was pulled, whereby the ac cident occurred. In respect to the ru mor that Engineer Low had been put on for the special occasion, that he had been discharged for reckless running, and for drunkenness, these bfficials declare most emphatically is entirely withppt founda tion. Mr; Low," beginning in the shops, . .has been , raised ,i,pn,- - the road,; and is one of their, njost . trust ed .; engineers., :. . As,. for! 'reckless running," or . even . drinking much less getting drunk. - the- officers declare thev neither never heard of, nor do they be lieve ne has ever been guilty of any each conduct; and, -so far. as "this particular occasion, is -concerned, we have , heard members of the Winston . company ;de tailed to be with and protect engineer Low immediately after the: accident on account of sorae threats which were made, declare that Mr. low was absolu tely free from the use of liquor, and that he was very cool throughout, and anx ious in his efforts to do all he could to rel ieve th e suffering. This much for that sideband" in justice to.engineer Low. , It is admitted that the speed, coming down graue ior some distance, : was about 3o miles per hour, not an unusual speed in this 'portion of the road. The track was and has been in excellent order, and, is now. Engineer Low reports that the first apprehension ho felt just a few sec onds before the accident,;. was upon the discovery that he had lost control of his train on account of the air-brakes having been put on by some one pulling the cord on some one Of the cars, exhausting the drum at the engine, and throwing the entire force of the brake on the fear car, which, while the engine was in mo tion under full headway, necessarily caused the rear car to be jerked apart from the track: . And the moment the detachment took place, the pressure oc curred on the brakes on all the other coaches, which tended to throw them from the track. He reversed his engine as soon as he discovered .this .condition of affairs, too late to prevent the detach, ment and over turning of the rear car Had the coach been thrown from the track on account "of speed, its centrifugal force would have thrown the- car-on the outside the curve, whereas it jumped the track and fell on v the inside, showing clearly the enect of the sudden applica tion of the -brake's; Very ! manyj of; the soldiers insist that the speed" -Was reck less, and created great anxiety among all passengers. The pulling of tho danger signal the cord which threw the whole force of the air-brakes on, is admitted; but there is a difference of opinion as toJ the exact time at which this was clone. Other soldiers attribute the affair to one of those accidents which sometimes will occur in the face of all reasonable-pro-caution. All deeply ?depore it let-the cause be what it mav and all 'are to be congratulated that it was no worse; and it is earnestly, hoped all will soon be en tirely recovere-1 without resultant dime ulties. -...,.-. . . . -V Religious Services In, Camp.'

No one will deny the fine effect of the color; and no one will deny to. the men thet enjoyment of the ennobling associations ... connected, with that historic color. - In the light of both the past few years and of the eloquent present, there can be no suggestion of disloyalty because tho - boyd love' the gray. It is the Yeolor rri which , their lathers or their brothers fought and died. They cherish it with' affectionate or rev erential -feeling. And their ,v mingling with: the regiments or the companies clad in the blue is the constant reminder that they are brothers; that the blue and the gray are one; and that the one is no more the . -signineant Sign . of loyalty in the one than in the other..

A still, sultry morning on the moun tain with clouds and thick heavy atmos phere. Hundreds of visitors are coming upon trains. The hotel is draped in mourning, and a Sunday-like silence reigns about the cottage where tho dead General lies in his temporary receptacla, wrapped in the flag. " So the third day of Mrs. Grant's widowhocd begins. Apropos of the nwilion of Mrs. Grant's name, it may bo stated, that, thus far that lady has been seen by no person ex cept the members of her family and Mrs. Dr. Newman since the General's death. Late yesterday afternoon there spread', from month to mouth the news' that the widow had been seriously prostrated, and that even serious results might be feared from the shock of her berevement, The rumor that first reached the outer world may ber-regarded as having no bases in fact, beyond that of Mrs. Grant being in seculsion because of a natural desire for rest nd quiet with her own serrow President Cleveland was this morning requested by the family to name the pall bearers to act at the clos ing obsequies.

We owe to the courtesy of some of the young gentlemen in charge a gooti scat and a favorable position. We found the centre of the floor occupied by the Wil mington Band, eighteen or twenty pieces' ' which regaled the audience with really very delightful music. We never heard sweeter or better, and the entertainment would have been complete if it had gone no ianner. uut tnis was not what tho watcnea tne great entrance aoors for the sound that was the signal for tho en trance of the Amazonian army. At length the measured tap of the drum was heard, and then . amid admiring and almost wild Tanplauso the band of Meseley. - It was a strikiaa ml-a irttr sight. The costume was most thoroughly "loyal." The uniform was a blue body, a broad red band passing over the r it'll t shoulder and falling down the left Bide in long full sash. On the left breast were tnree wnite'stars. The skirts, ample enough, but less voluminous than the fashions of the day exact were alternate stripes of red, white and blue, on tho front stripe of which blue, ran a perpen dicular row of white stars. A jaunty red cap, without visor, bound with white and with fx whitA titsxr flat. Banlv vAf nram. fully on each well balanced bead. In lieu of musket, each one bore a staff sur mounted with a national banner.' The tout ensemble was wonderfully beautiful.-' 1 Tho company was then put through the ordinary drill; and then Capt Mct eley was a proud man, and the spectatoi s a wonder stricken people. , Every move ment was absolutely perfect and absolu tely faultless, marching, counter march ing, in column, in platoon, moving in ri:iiHiiiii i 1 1 :i 1 1 ir i iur irnnr. wnnniinrv inrn line, breaking into column, there was not a single fault. The movement was that of machinery, and space and distance was calculated to the very inch. The drill was kept up for half an hour and then the company broke ranks, and the spectators were ushered into anoth er pleasant phase of the evening enter tainment, and dozens , of tables were placed on the floor, and speedily covered with ice cream and other delicacies and refreshments; and. no doubt the ladies of the Aid Society reaped ample reward. We learn from Capt. Moseley that this perfection of drill was reached in ten nights' practice. How many months does it take the same number of young men to do the same thing? We extend a hearty welcome to this new branch of the military service.
