Railroad Accident and Loss of Life
   We learn that two boxes {box cars} connected with a train, conveying soldiers, ran off the track on the Montgomery & West Point railroad some 4 miles from this city about 9 o'clock last night, killing and wounding a considerable number.
   Persons from the scene of the disaster arrived here on foot about 10 o'clock last night and a train was soon after dispatched to the relief of the sufferers. We are compelled to go to press without further particulars.
