Serious Railroad Accident
   About eight o'clock Saturday night a serious accident took place between Reeves' and George's stations on the South Carolina Railroad. A special train with General Hardee and several other officers on board came in collision with a freight train, resulting in the death of Engineer Broughton, and severely injuring Major Black and Conductor C. B. Clancy. We are happy to state that the General escaped with some slight bruises.
