There have bees weal points ape wide I have male official reports to the Ades ratty. I prefer, gaterally speaking, in whatever eaukansl ant me I hays with the Admiralty, that they shall be gavial. I have given e. mash &Westin' to thee points upon which I have reported, that I have not taken up the mater et se. wants, because I looked upon it that I was repo/tin me matters more particularly in my own do partruesA as • practical engineer. As regards the wanner in which the accounts are kept, I beg to differ from that opinion, and to my that I do not think that they are kept In the same manner as they are kept in private factories.—How are they kept ? All private facto ries make a regular rule of taking stock. Ido not see how they can keep detect soonunts without doing so.—ls not that done at Woolwich? Not in the same way. Suppose pun take an accumulation of years at Woolwah, you may net at almost any onsoret you dee:re to any qua anon ; but for any delimits year you would not get at the state of things as regards that particular year, you wool.' require to take an accumulation of years.—That renders it more chili col accurately to know the cost at which things are made in the factory ? Per any particular period. Yon may moor tale the average for a -usher of years, bat sot what the cost was in the comes of • particular year. Sir J. Graham.—Por how many years has the establish ment- at Woolwich bola carried on ? They emonteneed enutaaturiog them in the year 1841.—Have you t sk‘n stock sines that tin.*? lam not sere of any return giving the stock ; I have only bad experience of it for two years.— (To Kr. Murray.) What was the ease when you were at Woolwich? I never saw before I left Woolwich any ba kes of material made up ; but the books are balanced, and the remainder shown which ought to be there.—Are not the amounts closed annually ? Yes, the amounts era annually belied, and ought V. show the remainder of stores -till in !red.—Without taking stock ht w can you cut the balance ? What I underrand by taking stock is, going to the iron More and weighing the iron actually in the store.— You presume that it is there without ascertaining that it is there. Is that the mode in which stock is taken? As far as I know that kasha a the mode, Mr. Hume.—Do you, in that some which you have is the books, ealmaate tts pries of the materials and the M I arge for the gratuity e to be expended ? The material expended is as it is expended to • particular boiler or • weals: ship.—Are the prises gat to that, so as to give you the cumulative pre at the end of the work? Yes. Chairmen (to Mr. Atherton).—Will you state how you arrive at the min per ton which you have given as the ta pease of a boiler ? I have not brought with me the figures or the weight of an absolute boiler. As regards taking stock, my impression from Mr. Murray's statement was, that at the end of every fineneiel year, though we could not ex actly sate what the stock of material was, we could state how the matter stood with respect to the work whisk had been performed. I do not think that that is exactly meet ; at least I have not found it so, for this roue ; the Mese year commence the lat of April; supposing on the Ist of April you have • dozen ships in hand, as we had this mama, all the expenses intuited in these aim do not ewe into the mount ; that is, the or counts are not made up against those vessels till subsequently to the I.e of April ; so that though we may have been expe nding thousands upon those Tech previously to the let of April, it is not brought into the accost till after the let of April, and thereon all those meek week leave subseqem to the Ist of April go into the meets oldie ma suing year, though the money that was paid for them may in a great measure have come out of the appropriation cif the previous year.—An account is kept ogee — the ships, not menet the general mablishment ? Every ship has an re count kept spinet it.—is not there a general debt3r and creditor amount against the whole eesblithment ? There is no annual haloes. I have a statement here to show the difficulty I was in, because I think it very likely that this may have led to misapprehension. The usual course, I understood, has been for the secretaries of the Admiralty, at the end of the year, to require an ap proximate idea to be give of how things were gig on. This year I was requested to make up • statement of the work produced at the factors, and I ?id it In the usual way. I merely ramrod to the books of the factory, and made an account of the number of vessels which had left during the year, without making any mimeses to what was the state of the steak at the beanie of the ear, or to the sum of money we had expended upon the wore on hand at the end of the year. The sonsequess wee that the return, though it would be correct suppoving the stocks to have been equal, yet, as the works went on incremieg In a progressive ratio, could not be • correct return of the approprintioa of the money for that particular peri . This was the statemeat made to Mr. Ward ; and, in order to get at breathing more like a definite resale, this is • memorandum which I appended to the state ment which I officielly submixed to the Adminity. This steamentote made to the Admiralty, embraced the extreme incurred up NI 42 yowls which had left Woolwich during the earresey of *lam ; and in order to be more precise I have mode this addition to that statement : " As no rear account of stock has aver been takes at the esd of the an eial year or at any setae periods, bat the amount of each vassal made lap ash eternise at the period of the 'eel leave* the pet, it idiom that the foregoing statement in cludes, as regards the vessels there& named, all the sums spent on awe vessels prier to the month of April, 1841, and the statues% does not insets the sums spent during the year 1847-48 ea the works la angst prewar on the las of April, 1848. la order, thereon, to eine • view of the transaelitme during the yam 1847.48 the sum sit i ony statement (A.) mast be tiadaMed ham the foregoer amount, and the NMI shown by stement (B.) must be added thereto." The ma shown Isystelleett (B) h money expended upon the works on hand ma e of April, 1848. The result was, that upon the _e_epest of mines I had to deduct from that statement 12,39 a, and upon the item of boilers, 6,1854, upon statement B. ; met then I estimate 16,3714. on the item of engines, and 19,806. en the item or tailors.

THE EXPRESS, WEDNESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 13, 1848. THE RAILWAY COLLISION NEAR NEWTON BRIDGE. Yesterday the inquiry into the cause of this accident was mussed at the Queen's Ertel, at Birmingham.

I also received several Vows on the chest from new parts of the mac, leery. The Moder broke away from the 'spine ; she was thrown ofi; and lay with two wheels upi sornoet. The driver (Mathews) stood by mi on the foot plate for some time, but Ido not know what afterwards bee.me of him. The steam was turned off at Newton bridge station. It is usual to turn off all the steam, or nearly all, when we are turning earns. A I the driven slacken speed when they are at these Points, it being laid down in the rules that they should do so. We were running at the rata of about forty miles an hour on the strellat length. When I ran to pat on the brake we were off the road. I examined and coed the engine both at Stafford and Wolverhampton. She was then quite right. I have often been on an ruins when On epriags are broken—sometimes go at the rate of 36 miles an hour in such cireurastaecen I have been a fireman two puts, and ban seen a dozen or MOTO springs broken. On none of these occasions al the engine lone the line r the train come to a stand still. I cannot noon, t for this sondem, and am unable to say whether the engine or the tender went off flirt rode first. Mr. Francis Trevethlek, having been recalled, produced the rules read regulations which the engine -drivers are di. anted to obaeree, also the time tables, and a comic. map of the gradients and curves. He said : I have examined the Colonel engine since the sondent. and toned but one point ,hanged—the rnnoval of a letter trim the leading spring of 1 the engine. A carriage belonging to the &Atha Ceutral Company was the one thrown over on the line. I I have since placed 32 cwt equally distributed on it; the consequenes war that the bottom of toe fi or came in coated with the flange of a wheel. I afterwards intent d the weight to 43 cot.; the At then versed so heavily, that it prevented the oe 110t0/0 of the wheel In en indent which had previously been made in the floor of the carriage. The nth. r wheels were free of the fled; one end of the see rings with that weight fell li of an loch : the other en t on the same side had fallen. three-quarters of an itch. Thirty-three hundred weight w , old be equal to shout fifteen passengers with luggage [C aptain Huish remarked that the; took the avenge to be !teen p mangers to the ton.] The wheel fitted into some marks in. the bo torn of the carriage made by the a`loloo 01 the wheel ; these sp. peered to have been recently made ; there was no dirt open them as if they had been or lorg standing. I also conserved other marks on the carriage trains immediately above the wheel spoken of, as if one or more b. Its bad het,, forced into it ; 'Alta corresponding with thee marks ars attached to the top of the middle of the spring, showing tut when the body of the carriage rested on that . part of the spring the prow action of the spring wait Injured ; and that the body of the menage must have borne Is. avily on the flange of the wheel. There was an amen:anon of the boards of the floor over the wheel haying started, but not to such an extent as to allow me to rniasaure.—(fly Mr. Carter): When the carriage was us motion, the effect of the weight on the floor would be greater; din ethane have been triune that the surds should put on the brake. slowly. I have known instances where trai a hove been the , we off the line by the brake being put on too suddenly. The driver I believe does generally know when the brake is put on, but not always. Mr. Parker, the superintendent of locomotives, was n ailed. He spoke generally in to the state of the " Colonel " engine. his evidence being in the naive corrobora , ive of that given by the last witness. He 'urther stated that he ouold put the engine in repair in two days and with refereooe to the cause of the accident he saki his firm belief was that the last carriage of the train find lett the raire. Mr. Wiliam Parry, of the city of Worcester, was the next witness. lie said: I travelled by the express train on Satur day, the 2d inst, and was in the first compartment of the last e.arri tut As 1001111• we emerged from the tunnel at Wolverhampton the "bumping " commenced; this ton , tinned mon or less until the acc id ent took place. The cocil lation and rolling of the carriages was the greatest jut befitre the accident occurred. I said to my friends in ' the earrisee with me, " I wish we may gist to Birmingham freely." I felt a shock, and almost immediately our carriage ' was thrown aside on to an embankment. We I , It the aplin ten from the luggage van strik • our carriage, but I do not think that we had been struck by the pilot engine. I have ' travelled much, and we were going at such a *peed sal never went before. I should say the *peed from Wolverhampton was at the rate of 60 miles an hour, _ Thom.' Holland, the guard of the train, gave It es his opinion that the train was going at the .rdanary expend. train speed at the time the seri ..nt took place. At N. one Brion, the speed was frees 40 to 16 miles an k iur. At Wed verltanspton we were 27 minutes henna& Lime. Capt. .1. L Bimmooa, of the railway emanation, was next examined. He sa : I have inspected the spot There the accident occurred. The line had been repaired before I saw it. I have also inspected the engines and carriages. With regard to Mr. Trevethick's evidence, I concur with it in the main. I caused nine men to act into the front and middle compartment of the lest carnage, and their weight brought down the leading springs attait three quarters of en inch. As to the stale of the rata, I saw nothing at variance with Mr. Norris's description. The ineliw is demanding towards Birmingham, which would tend to augment speed; the inclination is 1 in 632, and is not inch se to rare retardation with an septets train. The curve was of eo • a radius—three-quarters of • mile—that it would not nq moderation of speed, pro vided the rails wen in good order. To the best of my judg ment the Antoci of the last carriage, which produced emin ence to the motion ante wheels, was not it. itself • sufficient cause to throw the carriage off the line. The sir. stance of the resistance was an inch deai board, and that in my opinion would have been broken upwards, or driven through, before the carriage could have been thrown off. Ido not think that the fact of the last carriage getting off would throw off the engine. Upon the whole so much depends on conjecture is these accidents, that it is impossible to state positively abet:sun. I have known instances where a carriage has been off for two miles—nom, of the othen have been displaced, and that, too, on lines where then has been much greater resistance than here. The curve here is comparatively trilling, se small that I should not fear to travel over it with the train at the highest speed if tits rails were in • good state. I calm a t conceive the last carriage getting of sufficient to throw eff the engine, unless the train was going ate very high velocity, and there was • grey dal of motion. I think in this case the speed must have . been high, and the train runni ig unsteadily. It is in evidence that there was no bumping up to Wolverhampton. and there was forwards: it is priond facie evidence either that the road was in • bad atom or the speed high. It is said that the time they were travelling showed the speed was not more than 46 miles an hour ; but that is not the way I should calculate it, because it would take at leant a mile and a half, which would occupy four minutes, Wove the train cou ld get up to that speed. Upon the whole I am inclined to think that the speed must have been greater than 60 miles an hour. This is a stune.block road, with cast iron chain and wooden keys. Still I should not consider that there was any danger, unless at an extraordinary vele cig-, such as a high rail or tome uncommon motion.—By Mr. Carter: I am not aware of any instances where a ear nage has got off the line that it has thrown off an engine ; certainly I do not know that it is a common occarrenos.— The inquiry was mending at the time our report was de p▪ atched.

IRELAND. Dennis, Szer.l2. It appears that the loss to the depositors by the default of the actuary of the Mallow Savings Bank will be comparatively trifling. Tie whole of the de posits in this particular bank did not at any time exceed 1,6001., and at the period of the defalcation had diminished to 8501. or thereabout.. There is 1301. to the credit of the trustees in the Provincial Bark, besides 141. interest, and the defaulter, Mr. Mahony, has, it seems, some property valued at 5501. or thereabouts. Thus the ultimate loss to the deposi tors, if the trustees are not liable, will be small. Some anecdotes of the late sh am rebellion now and then creep out. One of them has recently here re lived, for which I believe there is some foundation. Um er present circumstances I shall not mention names. Soon after the "chiefs of the insurrection" h:id reacned Slievenamon, one of them, who held a more prominent position than the others, called to a subor dinate to prepare for special duty. "Go " said he, " take four men with you, and bring me in the judges. They shall be re tained as hostages." Four men !" said the party addressed—your readers will recollect that about this period the judges were concluding the circuit—" why, sir, the judges travel under the pro tection of a troop of cavalry and some mounted con stabulary. Four men, sir, on such a service, would be useless. Give me a hundred, and I'm off." " No, no," said the first in command, " four will do; raise the country as you go." To this it was objected that raising the country would take time, whereas rapidity was indispensable to such a move ; and if " the country " were asked to engage in such an act, the eclat of the action would effectually prevent its accomplishment. Number one, indignant that his orders should be questioned, directed that number two should be at once placed in arrest, and removed behind the next ditch, that " he might be shot for insubordination." A recommenda tion was added, that " no unnecessary pain should be inflicted." I need not add that number two yet lives, and that that night and thence the judges slept in peace. And these m n have been tor years the idols of our people ! An intelligent and observant friend, who has just returned from the south of Ireland, has communicated to me the result of considerable investigation of the circumstances of the country during a visit of ten days to Kilkenny, Tipperary, and Waterford. And, first, as respects the potato :and the loss of the crop. The quantity of planting this year, he concurs withall accounts, to have been very considerably over an average, but he thinks very little beyond the plant ing of 1846, which was p Asps the largest ever made before. But there is this difference—a most material one when we oome to estimate the loss. In 1848 the greater proportion of the planting was made by cot. uer tenants on con-acre land. The blight of that year, sad the results as well as the cir cumstances of 1847 have entirely removed that class from the social ranks of Ireland. There has been very little, if any, con-acre setting this year. The small farmers have sown potatoes very largely— so have the farmers holding more land, but not so the , other tenants. The deduction from this circumstance is that the logs of the potato crop this year will fall upon a class comparatively better able to bear it—a class which, in losing the potato, has not lost every thing. The farmers have realised good prices for the last two years, and though the loss of the potato crop in 1846 and 1847 has cramped their means to a con siderable extent, yet with some forbearance and con sideration from landlords in the collection of rents, the case is far from hopeless. As to the loss of the potato crop, my informant estimates that in the three counties named it has reached already to one-half the produce. The ravages of the disease are by no means arrested. Wheat is not a good crop, nor is tie grain of the usual quality. By some unhappy choice a large breadth of white, or Lemmas, wheat has been sown this year, and but little steel or red wheat. In ordi nary years the cultivation of the latter exceeded the former in the proportion of 4to 1. This white wheat I. much more susceptible of injury from the efficts of our variable climate. The red wheat has turned out quite souk(' and good, and of the ordinary quality and average yield. There is another circumstance which will account to 'ours extent for the absence of the usual return from the wheat lands this year. It is found—at least all our farmers are convinced of it —that wheat never produces so largely in any soil as when sown after a p tato crop Neither turnip land nor rape soil is supposed to be at all equally adapted foe it. Now, there has been very little wheat sown this year in potato roil, for there was a very !tinkled extent of potato plant ing last year. A considerable breadth of wheat has been sown on immured stubble land, and here there is surely an intelligible cause for a light produce. However, my friend states that he did not see is his whole journey any wheat crop which he would not sorely estimate at ei barrels to the Irish acre. And six years since, before our agriculture somewhat improved, this certainly would be deemed a passable crop. As respects oats, the crop is healthy, and will be above the average. Barley still better. The green crops are excellent—a fact giatifying first because of the loss on potatoes and wheat ; secondly, because it will encourage the more general cultivation of them. Thus you see, with considerate and mutual good feeling between landlord and tenant, thingu are nut so alarming as they would seem upon • leesclose szumisatice.
