The engine of the St. Louis Express, from Windsor to Suspension Bridge, jumped the trade, et the Junetiou Cut and pitched:into a water tank. The baggage hand smok- ing ear in the rear telescoped and im- mediately took fire. Before the passen- gers could be got out or any assistance rendered, the fire quickly conhmunicat- ed to the cars in the rear, and soon four more cars were ablaze, The pass- engers, however, managed to get oat of the latter four, and tried to save those in the burning smoking ear, but with- out success. The wrecking of the water tank cut off the supply of water to a very large extent, aiid what water could be got had to be applied by means of pails. There were oue hun- dred and fifteen passengers and ten train bands on, board, anti of these :'bout thirty passeugeers were in the smoking ear. As far as bas been learned thir- teen passengers got out of the smoker, two were kilted instantly, one :of them being Mr. L. S. Gurney, who ?,r•as on bis was from Chicago to New York, and the other an Italian, name un- known, The remains of fifteen bodies have been taken out of the wreek,which witltthe two killed and thirteen reserved, all more or less wounded, makes alp the thirty who are supposed to be ad that were in the smoker, None of the trails hands were seriouslyitljured, the moist being; Edwin C}t,•tpnan,of London, the fireman, who had his right arm bunked and a scalp wound, "I WAS SUFFERING." Says S. S. Shewfeit, of Kingsley, Man 'From weakness and loss of appetite, with a severe headache, and could scarcely walk, My first bottle of B, B.

As the time advances for therepeal a r vote on the Scott Act in Middlesex, it becomes more evident every day diet public opinion is changing in reference to the Scott Act being a good measure for the furtherance of Temperance. It has now proved itself (Scott anal* that it is tyranical in every sense of the word. To prove this assertion we will ask our readers to weigh these facts in their mind, We will suppose that there be an army of 700 indi- viduals who use liquor in moder- ation, none would be committing any crime in this respect and Scott Act or any prohibitory enactments would not be agitated even by extrcmest. Just as soon, however, as one drinks to excess the principle of the Scott Act brand as criminals not him only but every one of the other 699 who never used but in moderation, as only one person in every 700 of the population of Canada drink to excess. Any act of parliament or any other act to punish 699 admittedly innocent individuals in order to deal with the guilt offone man is something we cannot comprehend. One reason, given us by the Scott Act agitators, is that the Scott Act should not be repealed, because it shuts off temptations for boys and young men. In. the first place the as- sertion is false. It increases the temp- tations instead of lessening them. There is a good deal of pig nature in boys as well as men. They will not consent to be driven. They walk in the paths of good voluntarily, or not at all. The proper Christian plan of edu- cating boys, is to teach then to shun `.the evil of drunkeness as any other evil or temptation. Teach tli.em to be self-reliant following good for its own sake, not depending on the state to keep them from evil. Suppose this one temptatation shut off -what of the rest? When May the 9th comes around we expect the people of Middlesex will throw of the Iron, Yoke of bondage, and once More breathePure air, free from f11 impurities, such as Scott•Aetor any other Tyrannical laws: NOTICE.

Loligivitye Scientific men see no reason why the span of human may not be extended to a round hundred years frons the present Limit of 4exenti to eighty years. From Adam's time to that of 1lle- thuselah and Noah, lieu are recorded as attaining well nigh the age of 1,000 years. The Psalmist David, however, says ; "The days of our age are three- score and ten; and though mea be so strong that they reach fourscore years yet is their strength, then but labor and sorrow; so soon pa,sseth it away, and we are gone." This wide margin of longevity, to- getilcrwith proper obeervaiice of men- till, moral and physical laws, leads in- vestigators to believe it is possible that human life Wright be made to inereare in length of days to a full century, at least. Moderation and regularity in eating drinking and sleeping are conductive to longevity, and those who preserve proper habits and use pure and officer - mons remedies wheu siek,lnay 'accomp- lish immense labor with no apptmen injury to themselves and without fore- shortening their lives. Rola 1I. Ii. Warner, President of the Rochester, N, Y. Chamber of Commerce,' ;old marruf.aeturer of the eelebrated 'Warner's Safe Cure, has devoted much', time and research to this subject of longevity, and itis arrived at the very satisfactory eouelusion that life may be prolonged b;, rational and natural means, Thousands. of people are living to -day -.enjoying the blessing of per - feet bealth and vigor --.who will testify tth the magical and efficacy of Warner's Safe Cure in restoring them to physical potency and to the normal type of taonctitbhtion, after they had alwost given up hope of life. After middle age many begin to lase their wonted vigor of body, and thereupon give way to inertness and useless repining, Yet all saaela have within reach, that which both renews youth and contributes to the prolonga- I tiros of life. Warner's tnarvelous Safi Cures are in every drug store, and are now regarded us standard specifics throughouthonG the civilized Cd world. The strong desire to attain old as ge_ _ meantime retaining the virile powers'. of body andmind•-is necessarily WC co n• Cted with the respect paid to aged: persons, for maple would scarcely de- sire to be old, were the age uegglect+ ` or regarded with mere sufferauee.
