It was nearly C :30 o'clock hint evening when the Chieasra dimiud arrived dlivrt : fn)m the; wrpCk at Rin ! Wis l.nno-. ing most of the passengers who wee ,saved. The first person to appear from the train, was the venerable Bishop Whipple,, accompanied by his wife. They were very much worn out, but beyond that, . suftered ' but little from the accident. TI e Bishop described the- scene as one o! the most terrible he had ever witnessed. He said he had witnessed the burning of the cars and had done all in his power to save the sufferers, but without avail. There was no time to save anything and the shivering poorly clad ones, who had escaped, Miere compelled to stand in the cold and watch their fellow passengers burn, to death. The air iwa filled with the groans and cries for help of the burning, mingled with stifled curses and vain pleadings for succor.' These with the snap and crack of the flames, the horrible odor of burnine .fieeh, and the hissing of stea m as; it escaped from the disabled locomo tive, all combined to make the hor rors those of an inferno. The hero- Oinnfc d Morris, was .nit-thing wonderful, working as they did to save notr-only the children, but otliers. Mi5innl8 was . only in his; stocking feet.Jmt bis braverj- was an exam ple. When he got out of the sleeper he found ; Mrs. IScherer, her mother-in-law andhef two children at one of the windows of the burniiti' ' . , -r ioned down by the neate, but Mrs. Scherer passed one child to McCiinnis and Bishop Whipple . got the. other; Tbey then attempted to liberate the women, out it w;:s impossible. Jhe svtsheld them firmly in, Jand the flames drove the rescuers away. My3 ,Schfrers t lothea caught flrp and the fiain fan up to her hair, fliers were chrieks ana groans for perhajta aeven uiiuutes and then all ceased. "They wej o literally roanted . ! to death lief ore our eyes." said. Capf. Ames. At least 2 lives are !now supposed tq liave been lost.

' It was reported here to-day that the raiTKred lease of the Washing ton. Ohio and Western Railroad to the Richmond and Danville Railroad Coinpany - had been confirmed bv ! statements made by officers of the company. It Li said ; that the lease, which will take effect November 1, was made in order to prevent the Baltimore and Ohio from purchasing the Washington, Ohio and Western road and, by extending itto Berry ville. make ' a iunction with j the Shenandoah Valley , road, thereby petting a southern connection, which the Richmond and Danville desired to prevent. ras such a connection would probably affect the latter road. If the lease is made the road will not le extended farther than its present terminus at Round Hill. The Rich mond and Danville road recently left two deeds for record with the clerk of the Corporation Court of this city, one of which was a mortgage deed of trust to the Central Trust Company ( f New York, to secure the payment of 12.50O,0oo in bonds, issued by the Virginia Mid land road, and the other a lease for ninety-nine 'years of the Virginia Midland road to the Rich mond and Danville road. The lease was withdrawn at the request of Vice President Huidekoper, shortly after its admission, for reasons which were not stated at the time; but it is now believed that the lease is with' held awaiting the action of the di rectors of the Richmond and Danville Company, who held a meeting in New York to-day. ' . Mr. Wilmot Leach is a little better this morning. . though his condition T-as very critical last night. Some hopes are entertained to-day of his recovery. I am glad to see that my friend, Wm. Garl Brown, Esq.," is so busy painting portraits in Charlotte. It speaks well for your city to show such liberal appreciation of perhaps the finest portrait painter in this cointry. 1 ha ve heard exalted com pliments paid Mr. Brown, by artists who had visited all the galleries in Europo and America. As a portrait painter I do not know his equal. He fiherits his wonderful -gift. His father was a favorite, pupil of Sir Joshua Reynold 3 and Benjamin West, and as a youth Mr. Brown studied in the Royal i Academy in London. If Mr. Brown had Huntington's oppor tunities he would .soon become a millionaire.. , I would rather have one of Mr: Brown s life like portraits of I one of my family than a' whole pic ture gallery ot races painted by the average unskilled and " uncultivated dauber. - j ' . !
