OVER A SCORE OF VICTIMS MANGLED OR BUROT . TO DEATH. V THE PROSPECT DISASTER NEAR MAT- VILLE, y. T. THE MISCHIEF CAfED BY A BROKEN WHEEL A FEARFUL . FALL, AC. , . ; By telegraph to the New York Tribune. 3Iattille, N; Y.; Dec. 25. The accident near the little town of Prospect, just above hero, proves to have been one of the worst ever re corded in the railroad history of this country. From an insignificant cause a rich harvest of death has resulted, and one of the most : melancholy fea tures of the slaughter is the fact that the roll of victims can never be fully made up. It appears from a careful examination of the ground, to-day, that about 20 rods this' side of the trestle bridge, and when on a short curve, a small piece broke out of the flange of the forward left-hand wheer of the rear truck of the tender. On a straight track no harm would have re sulted, but pressed as the wheel was against the outer rail of the curve, pieces varying in weight from two ounces to - two ' pounds broke off in succession, until three quarters of the flange was 'gone when the wheel mounted the rail, made four revolu-" tions one it (the ; dents from which rnav be plainly seeii), and then drop ped outside the rail, the whole truck, of course. 4 leaving the track. 'This was fully eight rods from the trestle, which is 320 feet long, the truck was dragged, cutting deep into the trestle ties, which" were only two inches thick, with every revolution ,of the wheels. The . truck worked to the left until, near the centre of the tres tle, the outer wheels dropped over the end of the tiesj and in some "way not accounted for, threw the rear- end of the baggage " car' and forward end of the passenger coach off 'the track. Both cars slid " down until their centres C rested 'on the edge of the bridge where "they remained stationary for an instant, and then the weight of the overhang ing trucks tipped them completely over, and, bottom side up, they fell perpendicularly to the ground below, a distance of 20 feet.. When the cars struck, the .tracks crashed through the bottoms ' of 'them; and ' as the stoves of the passenger cars were di rectly under the trucks : they were crushed to pieces, and immediately the wood-work of the cars took fire. Of 46 people known to have been in the two cars but one escaped unaided, namely,thebrakeman on the passenger coach, who iumped clear of the fall ing cars. When it is added that the train was running at, the rate of six miles an hour when it fell off -the bridge, the substance of all that this known, so far, as to the cause of the accident is siven. " ine wood-work of .the passenerer car, thickly, coated as it was with varnish, burned freely,' and before .inytniiig could bc.dqne by toe. force at hand to prevent itxthe flames en veloped both ends of the car and irept rapidly toward the center. Pen ned withiii itatUhis Itlme with no possible, chance ,to - extricate them- sclves were 43 adult passengers, the conductor, and one child. Of those seated in the ends of the ear noue'es- taped, but, help arriving, about 25 dead and living were taken odt otthe center of it,' and the fianies werex mguished or, more correctly speaks 'g, went out for lack of anything unner to teed upon. Vibe remains f the other passengers were , then recovered, and all brouirht to this place.

A peep into the report of the late Comptroller-General Neagle, which has been made to the Governor but is not yet published, discloses the foU lowing interesting item i The public bonded debt is stated at the same fig ures as last year, Viz: $15,851,327 35; of this amount it .is claimed that $1,600,000 is under hypothecation in New York as collateral security for a smaller Toan, The total expenditures for the - fiscal -year ending October 31st, 1872, are $1,634,835 61. " The receipts are said to be the same, and the deficiency is placed at $1,266, 405v which would make the total ex penses of the last fiscal year $2,001, 240 61, .Among; the receipts is credited to Kimpton the- snug little sum of $303,000, From Jthe General license tax is acknowledged only the pitiful sum of $62,670. From what sources Kimpton received the money which he paid into the treasury ' does not appear. The estimated expenses for the current year are $2,054,347 10; this inctudes1 $1,425,547 10 for in terest due upon the public debt up to the close of the last fiscal year. The State officials are mostly away at their homes to spend the Christmas holidays.

The Sentinel is our informant for the statement that the notorious horse thief, John- Ketchy, for whom a reward of $900 is offered, was captured near Salis bury the other night and brought in and confined in the jail. A couple of gentlemen from Pennsylvania, says the Raleigh Sentinel, have put in their appearance, under the patronage of the U. S. Government, to en close the Federal Cemetery, near that city, wiui a wan oi granue. A negro man named John Wright, employed at Moseley's saw mill near, .bnneld, was found dead Christmas morning. He was intoxicated, and not being able to take can? of himself, fell asleep on the roadside and ; froze to death. Two gay Raleigh youths, on a Christmas lark, one -dressed in women's clothes, attempted to pass themselves off as kinfolks of the ladies at whose residences they called. They were told that they were too familiar on short acquaintance. . Says the Sentinel : A miner was fatally injured at Gold Hill a few days ago by an unexpected explosion, lie thought the fuse was extinguished and was too im patient to wait a reasonable time and wane examining me arm met wiui ine ter rible accident.

We are glad to announce that an arrange ment has been effected whereby our citizens will be treated to a Lecture from Prof. Ed ward Daves, formerly of Newbern, but now a resident of Baltimore, which will be delivered under the auspices of the Young Men's Christian Associa tion and the Wilmington Library Associa tion, of this city. Prof. Daves is a brother of Maj. Graham Daves, of this place. He is a graduate of Harvard University and has lately traveled extensively in the Holy Land, where he made himself thoroughly conversant with the-history and traditions, manners and customs pertaining to the countries which he visited. His lecture on Palestine, which will be repeated here, has been delivered on several occasions to large and delighted audiences at Baltimore, Newbern and other places, and the press have alluded in the highest terms of com mendation both to the manner of its de- ivery and to the subject matter of the lec ture. The lecture will be delivered at the Opera House on to-morrow (Monday) evening, Tickets to be 'had at Heinsberger's Book store and at the door. Much credit is due by those of our citi- izens who appreciate nch intellectual treats, to Mr. Win. M. Poisson, Chairman of the Committee on Lectures and Readings of the Y. M. C. A., for his efforts to pro cure the delivery of first-class lectures in our city, and we hope our people will evidence their appreciation of his assiduity in this respect by turning out in large numbers on Monday evening to hear Prof. Daves. m m m v ReboIMtnff. The burning of the buildings on Market and Second streets on Thursday night' has left an unsightly vacuum in a very con spicuous part of the city, and it therefore affords us pleasure to announce that Mr. L.

Other buildings will probably soon go up in the burnt district. Mayor's C art. , - W. H.

A - colored man, employed on Eagle Island, accidentally fell overboard between two flats yesterday morning, about 101 o'clock, and but for the promptf assistance lie received from the hands on the flats he would certainly have drowned. - As it was, intpnort was the cold that it was with great difficulty lie was saved.

It is well known that spectacles cut from Brazilian or Scotch pebbles are very injurious to the eyee cause of their polarizing light Having been tested with the polariscope, the dia mond lenses have been found to admit fifteen per cent, less heated rays than any other pebble.
