September 25th P.M. Another. This evening, about 5 o'clock, as the express train from New York approached the depot at Oswego, a man was seen standing on the track. The cars were too near him to be stopped, and no was run over and instantly killed. It is supposed that he was intoxicated, as he made no effort to get off the track.

His body was so badly mutilated that it has not yet been recognized. He had purchased a ticket a short time previously for New York, and said he was from Corning. No blame can be attached to the Railroad Co. or their employees. Mr.

Thomas Johnson, who was so badly injured by the accident on the New York aDd Erie Rail road, last night, died at half past nine this morning.

GOULD, Portrait Painter, tn 'Hon his friends and patrons to his rooms cornor of Fulton and No. 1 Front street, Brooklyn. lyfl and their invited gnests, preceded by a gigantic pioneer, and the famous Granger's Band, took up the line of march, down Myrtle avenue to Fulton street, round the City Hall, down Fulton street to the ferry, and from thence by the mostdirect route to the dock at tho foot of Chambers street, New York, where they embarked on board a very small steamer with a mighty big name the Co lumbus, Capt. Hulse, bound for Newburgh. The afternoon and evening were delightful, and although the passage was somewhatjtedious.yet all enjoyed Ihe trip much.

There is an end to every thiDg, although on Monday night the boys beg in to think there wasn't going to be any to their passage so, about half past 9 o'clock, we were laid along side the dock at Newburgh. Here were assembled a vast concourse of people, who, as they approached the wharf, tried to rend the very heavens with their loud shouts and huzzas. Upon the wharf, in line, waiting to receive their Brooklyn friends, were the Niagara Engine Co. Ne. 5, Captain Buchanan, foreman, who on this occasion had mustered as a volunteer corps, under the command of Lieut.

Gilchrist, ass't. foreman The "Niagara Guards" presented a line of 3t muskets and the men were as fine a body of fire men soldiers as one scarce ever meets with. They were accompanied by a very good band of mu3ic which has recently been organized in that village. The two companies, after passing in review, marched to the engine house of the Niagara Company where a most excellent collation had been prepared for the Union boys. Charles Brooks, in behalf of the Niagara Guards, welcomed the Union Volunteers to Newburgh, in a very happy and eloquent speech, which was replied to very briefly by Capt.

Sharpe, who introduced Frank Dikeman, who replied to Mr. Brooks in a very pleasing and appropriate manner. At the head of the hall, in large letters, was painted upon the wall, NEWBURGH AND BROOKLYN, ItlAGABA GtABDS UNION GXJAHDS. WELCOME! The tables of the Niagara were spread with an abundance of every thing desirable, but of which time will not allow us to speak as we would like. Suffice it to say, that it was voted the best entertainment ever seen on a like occasion.

The boys were quite hungry, and "even handed justice'1 was meat ei to the well spread board of their hosts. At 12 o'clock, the two companies aga in fell in1 and escorted by the Niagara company, marched through many of the principal streets of the vil lage, up hill and down decidedly more up than down to the United States Hotel, the quarters of the Union Co. The torch light march of the two companies was a beautiful and brilliant scene. The windows of the houses in the streets through which they pass ed, were filled with lovely ladies, who welcomed and cheered the guests of their Niagara boys, by the waving of their handkerchiefs. That night's march, though very fatiguing, was anything but unpleasant, and will long be remembered by the Union Voluuteers.

After partaking of a light sup per at the United States, the wearied firemen sought tired nature's sweet restorer," but sought it in vain. On Tuesday morning, at 9 o'clock, the Union Company were escorted through the town, to the Globe Hotel, about two miles east of the river, near which was the field, where the former Company betook themselves to target practice, and contended for the following elegant prizes. 1st Prize. A beautiful minatura ship, valued at and presented to the company by Andrew N. Doxey.

2d Prize. A gold eagle, ($10.) ad Prize. A gold ring, (7.) 4th Prize. A gold ring, (5.) The following gentlemen acted as Judges Frank Dikeman, John Greene and Andrew N. Doxey.

The contest was quite spirited, and there were a great number of very excellent shots made. At 12 o'clock the firing ceased, and the target was taken possession of by the Judges. The two companies then returnsd to the hotel, where, after partaking of refreshments, they visited Washing ton's Head Quarters, and were very politely re ceived and shown through that ancient and interesting edifice, by Mrs. Woolsey, the very agreea" ble lady of the keeper. They next visited the re.

sidence of Mr. Thomas Beers, an ex fireman, and an old resident of Brooklyn, and partook of a most bountiful collation. From thence the companies marched to the house of Hook and Ladder Co. No. 1 where they were welcomed by the fore" man, and invited to partake of a most excellent collation, which had been prepared for them.

Frank Dikeman replied in his usual happy style Sentiment and song followed, and after spending an hour in a most joyous and agreeable manner, the Union Co. were escorted through some of the most beautiful streets of the north part of the vil. lage, to their quarters at the United States', where dinner was in waiting. The banquet over, the "Union" boys dispersed in every direction to spend the remainder of the evening as best suited their inclination. At 7 o'clock yesterday morning, the "Union Volunteers" embarked for home, on board the good steamer Columbus, and at 12 o'clock were safely landed at the steamer's dock, in New York.

The company breakfasted on board the boat after which, the decision of the judges was announced, and the following gentlemen proclaimed the vis tors 1st prize, Henry S. Johnson 2J William Gascoyne. 3d David Nefus. 4th Peter Doremus. The prizes were presented by Mr.

Dikeman, accompanied by a brief and appropriate speech. The company was also addressed by Thomas Teale, Esq. Thepassage down was enlivened by songs, recitations, addresses, ic, in which Lieut. McNamee, Mr. Vau Nostrand, and others of the volunteera took part and by most excellent music from Granger's Brass Band.

A magnificent boquet, containing the rarest and moat beautiful flowers, and fragrant as the breath of Flora, was presented to the Union by Miss Susan Haley. A glowing resolution of thanks was offered to the fair donor, and adopted with en thusiastic unanimity. A complimentary visit and serenade at her residence were intended, but, with much regret, the company were compelled to fore go the anticipated pleasure. The appearance and deportment of the Union Xlio Wlij State Convention. This august body will assemble to day, at Syracuse and from all the evidence that has come under our observation, the gathering will afford some rare developements of the present deplora blo'condition of the universal Whig party in the Empire State.

The Fillmore and Seward factions have "excited themselves iu the various countieB for the ascendency in the State Convention, and the contest has been fraught with bitterness and recrimination. The Seward faction have fought with the desperation of the wounded Btag, goaded by the smartiugs of the many insults heaped upon them by their treacherous "brethren," who, for the pottage of the federal government, have sold all the principles which they hitherto Tauntingly claimed as their "birth right." The adherents of the ostracised Senator ostracised by the Fillmore faction were and are sincere in the advocacy of their doctrines, and have determined not to tamely 6ubmit to be thrust into "outer darkness" and obscurity by the tools of the accidental President. They will therefore take a decided stand in this Convention, and fight the battle "to the hilt." The Albany Atlas says The Whig State Convention is likely to be visited by a storm. The Seward section have doubtless elected a majority in that body, and despite of some, defection, the result of executive influence, will retain a working majority to the end. On the other side, their op ponentshave thrown a number of their strong men into the Convention Granger, Duer, ex Spenker Hasbrouck, Senator Bush and others, who will' not consent that the victory of their opponents shall be an easy or quiet one.

It is evident that they are ready to make an issue upon Fillmore, even if they feel they are to be voted down." A telegraphic despatch, dated at Syracuse, last eveuing, foreshadows the comiruj storm in the Convention. That if" is a foregone conclusion for, that resolutions endorsing Sewardism" loill be pressed, is as sure as preaching." Syracuse, Sept. 25. The Whig State Convention to be holden tomorrow, at this place, will be well attended. Nearly all the delegates have already arrived.

A row is expected, as a matter ot course, if resolutions eudorsmg Sewardism are pressed upon the The ticket for State officers will probably be made as follows For Governor, Washington Hunt Lieutenant Governor, Mr. Hadley, of Troy; Canal Commissioner, Mr. St. John, of Ulster; State Prison, Inspector, Benjamin Squire, of St. Lawrence Clerk of Court of Appeals, Philander B.

Prindle. of Chenango. We await the event with a degree of anxiety. True, we would rather battle the Whig party as a unit, and flog the whole nest, than trample over our opponents in little, broken sections but "'Fate will have her way," and we must put up with her decrees with as much patience as may be granted us.

The Senate took up the joint resolutions from the House, authorizing the President to commence a suit against Mr Crawford for the recovery of the Galphii; interest, and after a lung discussion in which Messrs. Daw eon, Turney, Ewing, and Butler participated, ihe resolution was laid on the table, 27 to 25. The bilU for the establishment of collection districts in California, to make temporary provision for the working of the mines, and for preserving order in the mining districts, were passed. The Senate took up the Indian Appropriation Bill, adopted several amendments, and at 4 o'clock took a recess without disposing of the bill. In the House the Senate bill providing for the addition of four Commissaries to the passed with amendment.

The bill amending the act providing for the better security of the lives of passengers on board American steamboats was also passed. The bill requires that every steamboat be well supplied with life boats prescribes the number of passengers according to the dimensions of the boat requires a life preserver (or each passenger, to be furnished by the boat owners, and to be always in readiness for use and provides that no combustible materials be carried as freight that the boilers be examined once in sis months, The Army Appropriation Bill was taken up and an amendment to pay the officers mileage according to the usually travelled route instead of the direct route, was lost.

At 9 o'clock the Committee rose and the House adjourned without having made any considerable progress in the bill. The Li.vd Mania. The auction for tickets to Jenny Lind's first concert in Boston, took place yesterday morning. A counterpart to the 'scene" in New York was eDacted, although with more unequivocal demonstrations of infatuated folly. For the first ticket, the biddings were made with a vehemence and excitement approachiug insanity on the part of the contestants for the high honor of its purchase.

The first bid was two hundred and fifty dollars, and the frantic competitors ceased not until tho amount swelled to the extraordinary sum of six hundred and twenty. jive dollars, at which price it was knocked down to Mr. Ossian Dodce, a vocalist, and who undoubtedly possesses more money than brains. Verily, the nice of fools isnot yet extinct. The second ticket ran down to the I very diminutive sum, compared with the first, of! twenty four dollars fulling "from tl.u sublime to the ridiculous," or vice versa, "Vichever vim nL.

to I i' my dear." The whole receipts for tiie concert will probably reach 30,000 upon pocketing which Barnum will laugh, and the fair Jenny will "alternately laugh and After a while, wo think, it will be very generally admitted that we are a great people.

up in shirt the train stopped. I immediately jumped out, and with horror, perceived the forward passenger car precipitated down an embankment 30 feet deep, one end resting in a ditch of mud and water, and the car nearly perpendicular. With great efforts the windows were dashed in by the outside passen. gers, iu order to pull out and rescue the groaning and the supposed dead. The first taken out was a woman dead 1 Her husband and child, unhurt.

Those who are seriously hurt are Mr. Johnson of Binghampton, and Mrs. Ingram, of Buffalo, who were considered in a dangerous condition. Many others are more or less injured, but not dangerously, I haye just left the house where I saw the dead and wounded the latter under the care of a physician by the name of Dr. Rowland, of Brooklyn, L.

which I learn from the inside of his hat. I can truly give thanks, in bffhalf of the passengers and company, for the able and noble exertions of this stranger physician, in setting bones and relieving the agony of the injured. I am happy to be informed that those injured are comfortable. For me, a stranger, to praise the kinduess and prompt attention and skill of this Doctor Rowland, would be but a poor commentary on his ncble and praiseworthy conduct. One fact I will mention.

After replacing dislocated limb, the grateful gentleman insisted upon remunerating the doctor; but the latter replied that the whole State of New York wa3 not enough to induce him to accept of compensation under such circamstances. The gentleman took his name and residence. This sad affair was occasioned by running over a cow on the track. The first passenger car was broke to pieces, and the second was much injured. The three luggage cars were entirely demolished.

They had about a ton of specie on load." Exciti.no Steamship Race. The harbor, or rather, the offing, opposite the harbor, was yester. day the scene of a race between steamships, of an exciting character. The contestants, says the Journal of Commerce, were the Asia, of the Li Vtrpool Cunfird line, which was just leaving the port; the new steamship Franklin, of the Havre line and the new steamship Pacific, belonging to Messrs. Jarvis, Brown fc Lowrie soon to leave for California.

Aa the Asia passed down the harbor' the Franklin was seen lying to, near Governor's Island, anj simultaneously the Pacific passed near the Battery, and was soon following, at a moderate rate, in the Asia's wake. The Franklin soon took a position about midway between the other two vessels, making pretty rapid progress. Opportu nity had been afforded for the Asia to make a con. siderable advance, and orders were now given on the Pacific, to let her go." Two guns were fired from the Franklin, and the race fairly commenced. At once the powers of the Pacific's engines were taxed to their utmost, and every timber trembled under the power that urged her onward.

The rigging was gaily decked aloft with flags and streamers, among which were the Venezuelan national colors, out of respect to Gen. Paez, his son and suite, who were on board. At thirty two minutes after 12 o'clock, the Pacific passed the FrankLn each vessel rapidly hoisting and lowering its flag several times id succession, as a mark of courtesy. About five minutes afterwards the Pacific was even with the Asia, when the same salutation was repeated. She soon passed the Asia, and the contest was thenceforth solely between the Asia and Franklin, and was maintained with vigor until the two vessels separated, the latter being a short distance in the rear, and apparently gaining little, if at all, upon her adversary.

She followed for a considerable time directly in the wake of the Asia, and was doubtless retarded, in some degree, by the counter current from the wheels. The attempts of the Franklin to change her position were frustrated by a corresponding alteration in the course of the Asia. The F. was loaded with sufficient coal for her voyage to Havre, and the trial, between the two, was regarded as a fair test of speed. She presented a beautiful appearance, and sailed with great rapidity.

She is not expected to return to port for a day or two. At 13 minutes after one, the Pacific passed the South West Spit, (being then two or three miles ahead of her competitors,) and in seven minutes more, the Point of the Hook" a distance of 17 miles, which was run in 65 minutes. The average number of revolutions per minute was twenty one, under a pressure of 25 lbs. She is believed to be the fastest, certainly one of the fastest steamships, ever built; though in comparing her with the Asia and Franklin allowance must be made for the fact that she was light, while they were loaded. Captain Jarvis is her commander.

Mr Brown built her hull, and Mr. Dunham her engines. Her model is the same as that of the Arctic, only on a smaller scale. The engineer is Mr. King.

The trip was highly enjoyed by all on board. Whig Assembly Nominations. The Conven tions met yesterday, in the various districts. That of the First district adjourned to the 27th, without making a nomination probably awaiting advices from the dictator, who is now at Syracuse. In the Second district, John II.

Baker was nominated; and in the Third, Howard C. Cady. We have no' doubt these nominations were made in accordance with the instructions of that distinguished individ. ual, the ex Alderman of the Second, now the con. trolling spirit of the great Whig party of Kings county.
