The Portland Star cot respondent who
writes the piggish articles about the Insane
Hospital, may push his snout where neither
jest nor decency can excuse him. As the ass

that there is such a thing as carrying a joke
too far.
The stone bulkhead at the dam is com
pleted, the gates are in place, and a perma
nent building is being erected over the whole
structure. The walls of the new factory are
being roofed over substantially for protection
against the winter, the arches of the raceway
are covered with earth so that a passage for
teams is formed, and still the work goes
bravely on.
The Teachers' Institute in this city opened

the most practical character, and can with
tact he introdneed into every school, with the
best results. It is to be regretted that the

Tried yesterday, No. 379, Lawrence A.

watch and chain, alleged to be $250. Some
special interest attaches to the case from the
fact that the parties are both blind. The
proofs offered were mainly their own testi.

whether there was a bona fide sale nnd de

whether the deft, got it in his possession by
a pretended ' purchase, with the seen t pur

RAILROAD DISASTER.
Narrow Escape !
Several Persons Injured but
Nobody Killed.
As the train which left this city at 4, P. M.,
yesterday, for Bangor, was passing round a
curve this side of Rigg's Brook, about two
miles eastward of Augusta, it ran upon an ox
standing upon the track, throwing the cars
from the track, capsizing and smashing them
and injuring quite a number of passengers,
though fortunately none were killed and
few injured severely. The train consisted ot
three passenger, one smoking, and two bag
gage cars, and (jne locomotive. The locomo
tive and baggage cars were not .thrown lrom
the track, but the smoking car went off, and
though the shackling broke between it and the
passenger cars, the latter were capsized, and
piled up in strange shape. The passenger
cars were full, and how the passengers escap
ed as well os they did is surprising. Those
who were able sprang out through the win
dows and other passages that would permit
escape, to wonder at the sudden misfortune
which had overtaken them, and that their fate
was no worse. The wounded were taken out
of the ruins and attended to as well as they
could be under the circumstances. A messen
ger was immediately despatched to this city
with the news of the disaster, and a relief
train at once started with- physicians and all
needed help. The injured persons are as fol
lows :
George Shepard, Somerset Mills, wounded
in head and leg—slight.
Jonathan Snow, Vassalboro’, scalp, head,
leg and arm—severe.
Mrs. Tinkain, Augusta, eye and forehead
severe.
G. V. Brann, Madison, arm and head—se
vere.
The injured were brought to the city and
attended w ith the best of care, and w ill re
cover from their w ounds in a short time.
The train, after the accident, presented a
sorry sight. The ox was shattered into frag
ments. His carcass rolled along under the
locomotive and baggage cars and did not get
to the rear of the smoking car. The smoking
car capsized and w as dragged about 500 feet
on its side, ripping up the track, and tearing
down telegraph poles and fences in its pro
gress and making a wreck of itself. The first
and second passenger cars were upset, and the
second ran into the first several feet; while
the third was left at an angle across the bed
of the road. Floors, windows and seats, were
demolished, and that the occupants were not
demolished also is a wonder and mercy. One
instance will show the nature of the accident :
Lyman A. Belknap, of Boston, w as sitting on
bis seat, he was thrown forward violently, the
seats and floor were completely stripped
around him, and he escaped through a win
dow. About a thousand feet of the track was
torn up, and w ill have to be repaired before
trains can pass. No blame can be attached to
any one.
Lateb. A gang of men were immediately
set to work on the wreck, and by 2 1-2 o’clock
this morning all was cleared up and brought
to this city, and the track made good tor to
day's trains.

Abundant Supplies in l*ari.s
A Goneral Sortio expected on the

THE GERMANS READY WITH HEIN.
FORCEMENTS.
London.
London, Nov. 15. The prevalent foi ling in
official cricles in this city is that the govern
ment of Russia will restrain the expression o1
her enmity against the treaty oi 1*5G, and
limit her desires in the matter to diplomatic
representation.
The Telegraph this morning says that it is
certain that Russia has sixty iron clads in the
Black Sea ready lor use.
Despatches from Blois and Tours confirm
the rumor of a battle at Monarthenay.
Indications of a hurried and complete re
treat of the Germans are reported to.be every
where visible in the neighborhood of Orleans,
and subsequent despatches will no doubt con
firm what at present seems indistinct.
Humors founded on the information of
stragylers, state that the French are following
up the recent victories with consideral le fer
vor und.dash, ami the latest reports l’rnni the
inteiiorof Haris, where the news of the vic
tories has been officially announced, has given
a silver lining to the dark cloud that secius to
hang over the doomed city.
Special to the X. Y. World.
The World’* correspondent at Dole says
Dijon has been recaptured by the Brench. who
alter a brilliant engagement drove the Prus
sians troiu the city. The Prussians are re
treating northeast along the road leading
through tiic town of Marcalbeuu to Gera.
The World's Correspondent at Versailles on
the 11 tli says: Moltke said yesterday I’ari
will be able to hold out four weeks longer. I
deplore the folly of the French in refusing to
yield, and the necessity of devastating the
country. The opinion of many concerning
the entering of I'aris coincides with that ot
Moltke. The men, however, are terribly
anxious to get home. They don't care about
seeing Paris now. The belief prevails among
the officers that as soon as Paris i: occupied a
majority of the troops w ill be quartered in the
city, and there remain all winter, superin
tending the ( ln-titiunt Assembly ami keep
iug a wide circle of the country under subjec
tion. while the army of Prince Pred'k Charles
pacifies the rest of the country until the army
lately under llazaine can be brought back to
France to be used in strengthening the bands
of a new and strong government, wiih which
peace w ill be made. At the head of this gov
ernment will be Napoleon. This is the rea
son why llazaine has been sent to Wilhelms*
holie, and of the continual communications
between Napoleon and the King, liismarck
and Imperialists ot England and Belgium.
Special to N. Y. World :
A despatch from Paris dated the 9th says
Trochu now has equipped lUiO field guns of
new and approved patterns.
Trochu informed the troops in a recent
speech that the whole force of Germans now
around Paris was only two hundred thousand
men, spread over a circle ot investment sixty
miles in cireumfrence, anil when the proper
time arrived he would easily break this atten
uated circle.
Official reports show that there are provis
ions in Paris sufficient to give fresh meat, ba
con, bread and dried vegetables, in all two
pounds of solid food, per day, to each inhabi
tant until the 99th of January.
Special to N. Y. Herald :
The Herald correspondent writes from Ver
sailles on the 11 tli—A general sortie is ex
petted about the ltith or 20th, and prepara
tions to resist an attack are vigorously pressed
forward. I have good reason for advising you
nut to place too much reliance on reports of
the success of the army of the Loire. Von
tier Taun with a small force is falling steadily
back in accordance w ith a well understood
plan. No doubt he will lose a considerable
number of men, but the sacrifice will be the
same as at Gravelotte. It is intended to hold
the army of the Loire in check, and iir the
meantime Frederick Charles is steadily push
ing oil and even now is nearly wiilnn sinking
distance of Palladine’s right flank. Unless
Moltke’s plans fail as they have not yet tailed
during the w ar, the army of the Loire will lind
itself in a trap, and the chances of another
disastrous capitulation are imminent.
Large reinforcements and big convoy guns
had made their appearance at St. Scins yes
terday.
A special envoy trora. St. Petersburg
reached nteadquarters yesterday and had an
interview with the King in the presence of the
Crown Prince, Bismarck and Moltko.
Special to N. Y. Tribune :
The Tribune’s correspondent at Versailles
or. the lltlt says—Paris papers still accuse the
Government of faithlessness and treachery,
but Trochu and his colleagues are evidently
brave and have full power. The public feel
ing is still for resistance.
The Prussian siege works are unfinished
but are now able to resist a sortie, the men
being better massed and reinforcements hav
ing arrived.
A number of English refugees arrived here
on the 10th. They left Parjs on the Dili and
were obliged to walk nearly the whole dis
tance from Paris by Charinton, thence 115
miles of a circuitous route to Versailles.
The churches in France arc offering bells
to be cast in cannon.
Prince Fred'k Charles has reached the river
Yonne. 11 is columns converge at Setts and
he will cross the river to the assistance of Von
der Taun with an army estimated at 10,000.
Florence.
Florence, Nov. 15. The Opinione believes
that the Prussian demand will be granted by
! the powers.
Tours.
Tours, Nov. 15. The resolve on the part
of the Kussiao government to withdraw from
the treaty of Paris, causes a profound sensa
tion here. It is said an English envoy has
gone to Versailles to demand King William’s
view ol the matter.
It is reported that the Bavarians in Von der
Tattns command are deserting in considerable
numbers and the peasants capture attd^bring
! them into the town.
The Gavernraent in the Moniteur thanks
the National Guardi of the department of the
Seine et Marne for their gallant conduct in
capturing 'a body of Prussian cavalry, and
mentions their exploit in the order of the day.
Gen. Pulladines is by a decree of the Gov
ernment appointed Comma. der-in-Chief of
the army of the Loire.
In addition to the forces now organized and
on the field, four entrenched camps are to be
formed, wherein all £>00,000 men may be di
vided.
A despatch from Gien reports the enemy at
Seius.
On German prisoners taken around Orleans
were found large quantities of French jewel
ry and gold.

This Mode of Treatment, which is being
adopted by a large number of the Medical Profes
sion, has become quite popular in almost every
State of the Union. It has been examined by thou
sands of Physicians, of all schools of medicine, and
there has not been one dissenting voioe to the
correctness of the principle; all acknowledge that
it fills a vacuum in the Science of Medicine. The
sick and afilicted are demanding it everywhere.
