TELEGRAPHIC INTELLIGENCE. (grt TER'S TELIGRAMS.) FRANCE. PARIS, Nov. 14. The France of this evening asserts that as soon as the votes on the convention and the bill for the transfer of the capital have been taken in the Italian parliament Cardinal Antonelli will address a des patch to Paris explaining the views of the Ponti fical government in reference to those measures. The Petrie of this evening states that a despatch of M. Drouyt. de Lhuye, dated the ith November, declares that the rigorous application of the prin ciple of non-intervention cannot be admitted in respect of Rome, the seat of catholicism. M. Drouyn de Lbuys reiterates his assertion that France reserves her right to liberty of action. THE ITALIAN PARLIAMENT. TURIN, Nov. IS. To-day, in the Chamber of Deputies, General Pinelli opposed the Convention, and urged the government to adopt a course of action calculated to force Austria to evacuate Venetia, in pursuance of the principle of non-in tervention. General Della Marmora energetically rejected the proposition. Signor Laporta asked if the rumour were true that a French note had been received in answer to the note of General Della Marmora. General Della Marmora deliuud to reply to this question. The chamber will in future bold two sittings daily, in order to terminate the discussion at an early date.

ILACYA Y and Ca, 1, loadenhallatroat, - - - ----- THE WARFARE IN AUSTRIAN ITALY. La Sentimelia Lirtseiasa gives the following ac count of the conflict which took place on the 7th between the insurgents and Austrians : Falco, Nor. 9. Tolazzi and his band descended from the mountains whey. they had been for fifteen days. They pushed on towards Udine. Meeting au Austriao patrol with a commisaario, an eschaege of shots took place, which, whilst leaving nor men unhurt, who returned to the tcouutaios, mortally wounded the commiseirio and a gendarme, and slightly in jured the other two and four soldiers. Aust.' tau troops were immediately despatched from Udine to overtake them. Mention was made of another band in the mountains to the east of Tolosezzo. Temp" di Triidte gives, Nov. 9, from Udine, the following more dcb.iled particulars : Last Sunday we had the Garibaldians almost, we may say, at the gates of Udine, twelve miles off ; they made their appearance in the villages of Slagnano and Veozone, bringing with them the horses prepared for the royal courser, with those beloogiog to private individual. After regaling themselves they returned to the mountains, sending back the horses, aadgi v iug drink money to those who had been obliged to accompany thew. Their appearance, their bear ing, the chests of arms and ammunition by which they were followed, left oo doubt of their being Garibaldiiina Troops were immediately drapatcbed to the place. Other signals on the mountaios above Cividale have been spoken of, and more troops sent there. The conflict took pleat above Spilimbergo, near rdaniego ; it will appear more serious when it is knows that since yesterday eveuing I have heard from aim of the pursuers who had again set out for the mountains, that the number of dead and wounded amounted to 25. G t • ', POWDER IN THE EA ST. —The late tremendous explosion at Erith seems to hove borne fruits even thus far eastwards.

If • fire should be the cousequescii of such unlicensed searing the punishment is increased to five years, sad in the event of loss of life to from 10 to 15 visa, sweating so etc. CUMSI4I2C4II. —Levant Gerald, Nov. 9. THE HOMELESS POOR. How our streets are to be relieved of the famish ing, helpless creatures, who cower under archways, or shiver upon doorsteps throughout the long and bitter nights, is a problem yet to be solved. The re gulations recently issued, and upon which we have moat of us congratulated ourselves, do not, after all, meet the difficulty. Admirable in design, and unassailable in theory, they are yet inadequate as a remedy for the evils they propose to abrogate. That all wanderers shall be taken in on application, shall be housed for the night, and, after or before a Spartan meal, be made to perform a specified task prior to their departure in the morning, would be an excellent rule if its observance could be strictly enforced. But unhappily this is, under existing circumstances, impossible, and unless large district wards be created to meet the nightly demand for shelter, the coming winter will be but a repetition of its predecessors, and we shall be again shocked and startled by numbers of our fellow-creatures first starving and then perishing in our streets. That the casual wards of our workhouses are already filled to overflowing—that hundreds of beseeching applicants are perforce sent empty away upon every night in the week—and that it is as little possible to squeeze in more paupers into the already overcrowded wards as it is to put a quart of liquid into a pint measure, a plain state ment of the proceedings at one of our principal parish workhouses two evenings since will go to prove. In that portion of Cwstle-street, Leicester square, which has a barrack and a workhouse on either hand, where there is no thoroughfare for vehicles, and where the southern end terminates in a broad ;Lagged pathway running at the back of the National Gallery and the buildings occupied by the Royal Academy, sixty-three people were waiting at a quarter to 8 last Tuesday evening. They were clustered on the several door-steps to the left, they were ranged against the side and opposite walls, and they crowded round the workhouse door of St. Martin's-in-the-Fields waiting for that door to open and " the casuals " (themselves) to be taken in. Men and boys, women and girls, all ragged, all miserable, hungry and forlorn, they differed in ' everything but wretchedness, were of varying ages, opposite antecedents, and widely different de meanour. There is but accommodation for thirty two people in the casual wards of this workhouse, and it was pitiable to note the eagerness and ' anxiety of the faces in the little crowd when at 8 o'clock the master proceeded to select from their number occupants for the vacant beds. Plaintive cries of " I've never been here before, sir ; " " I've walked about all day, sir ; " and " h, sir, do take me in, sir," were uttered, but in low, respectful accents, as the waster (Mr. George Heslop) picked out sixteen men and twelve women, which, with two women and two children who had been ad mitted at au earlier hour, made up the number be was able to Louse. The door was then closed upon some thirty poor creatures, whose disappoint. went was intense and bitter, but who, hoping !against hope, still lingered in the vicinity of the workhouse, on the chance of some of their more fortunate competitors being, after all, rejected, or that from other causes extra room might be found. This night was merely a repetition of a scene enacted on every evening throughout the year, and the master's painful duty of selection is always perfortued on the principle of giving the preference to complete strangers. The wailing voices of the rejected ones outside formed a sad accompaniment to the shuffling feet, the harsh hacking coughs, and the heavy wheezy respiration of those within, who range themselves shoulder to shoulder along the passage, as if uu parade. We laugh at Sir John Falstaff 's ragged army in the play ; but when Mouldy, Snadow, and Feeble stand actually before us; when we see neglect, starvation, and disease typified in their ragged figures and wasted frames ; wheu we know that their excluded brethren need rest and shelter to the full as much as themselves--the spec , tacle is sad enough, and gains in colouring from its being a ghastly parody ou a review of troops. The master of the workhouse, seated iu a small room to the right of the passage, then receives these poor creatures one by one, and with infinitely more of kind delicacy and considerate forbearance than are conventionally attributed to the representative official, proceeds to elicit their name and age, their calling, parish, and last sleeping place. J. C., aged 48, and siuglc, a wiry Lard-looking little man ' who limps us one foot and touches his forehead with a courtesy which is quaint but not uncouth, slept iu Dartford workhouse last night, has walked from Dartford to-day, has " Woken a few stones . ' for his livelihood, and is now looking out for any jobadd that may turn up. These particulars are bristly noted by the master, and J. C. retires to the ward, secure of his shelter for the night. Similar particulars are given by the other "casuals, - who come in and retire in rota tion. B. R., aged 41, and married, but whose wife is "with her friends, - professes to be a carpel ter, and to Lave expected a job to-day, but Las no tools, has not had any work for two or three weeks, and Las lived and slept "how Le could." Next comes a dirty dishevelled figure, whose matted grey hair, coarse unkempt whiskers and beard, frowsy dirty face and dress, make Lim realise one ' s notion of a wild man of the woods. This is J. D., who looks 54.), but says he is only 36 ; is "nu thrade at all ;" " belongs to Ireland ;" was eleven years a soldier in the 94th, but " claimed wee discharge two years ago, whin I little thought I'd Le going about like this." And so with is military "left about-face " which proved the truth of our half his story, J. D. makes way for J. H., single, aged 34, who is a fair-bearded, fresh-faced wan, with au irre solute blue eye aud vacillating mouth, which seem to mark Lim as one downed to go to the wall in the struggle we call life. Nervously beating his cloth cap against Lis side, lie tells us that he, too, is au old soldier ; that lie served iu the Mauritius and at the Cape of Good Hope, but claimed his discharge be cause if be Lad re-enlisted he would Lave been mulct fire years of his pension time. He had been lately employed iu grinding white lead at some oil • and colour works, but Lis health had broken duwu, and he had been homeless, as we saw Lim, fur weeks. A. H., single, aged 27, was of a very dit- • ferent type to the mate preceding him ; with a scar on, or malformation of, the mouth, something like a hare-lip, and a fierce, hungry eye, which ranged up and down the little room like that of an un tamable animal who has been caged : Le answered savagely, shortly, and (uo doubt) falsely, that he'd • " never been in a workhouse until last night," and that "he was looking for work." W. (~ single), aged 21, seemed a helpless boor, who "Lad t r i e d to go for a soldier, but had been refused ;" while J. S., single, aged 39, a foundry labourer, from Graves end, was civil and intelligent, and said, with ap parent truth, that he'd been looking all day fur work. Iu C. T., single, aged 32, we saw a smart, • bright-faced wan, whose nautical blue woollen shirt stood Lim in the stead of coat and waistcoat, and I who was on his way to Rochester to seek employ- I meat as a brickmaker. He, too, was an old soldier, and Lad served in the 2nd brigade of Artillery until discharged, on account of ill-health, with a pension of lid. a day for the first twelve mouths after his discharge. lie was the least de plorable of the men we saw, and was obviously speaking the truth. Not so E. J., aged 27, single, who was of the tramp genus, and who war branded with such au idle, worthless, lying look, that his • profession of being "a ropemaker by trade" seemed palpably apocryphal. G. M., aged 32, whose wife and two children bad also been shel tered for the night, was a poor, wretched creature, whose " bits of things " had all been sold duriug au illness of fourteen weeks' duration, and whose attack of rheumatic fever bad left him as weak and tremulous as it Lad rendered Lim unlit for the work Le avowedly sought —that of a brick layer's labourer. J. W., • boy of eighteen, who I had been apprenticed to a baker, but who had not served his time, was an uneasy shambling lad, whose hands nervously twitched at his dress while under examination, whose eye sought the ceiling, or the ground, or anywhere rather than the face of his interlocutor, and whose expression was half shame-faced, and half impudent, as if it only needed time to ripen the evil within, and develop him into a full blown felon. W. C., aged 49, single, was another rope-maker, who complained of the slackness of trade, and who promised to try " Ber mondsey, Shadwell, and Limehouse" for employ ment on the morrow. J. T., aged 18, a civil, but rather stupid boy, was a boot-maker, who " bad served part of his time ;" while J. M., single, aged 50, was a characteristic specimen of the Irish tramp. He wore what had been a double caped drab frieze coat, and parried all ques tions as to the money he had sent home to buy the pig with in no unskilful fashion, and with a twinkle of the eye and a half smile, that showed the national love of fun to rise triumphant over houselessness, hunger, and fatigue. W. F., aged 34, single, was now a market gardener, but had been " brought up to music," and had played the clarionet about one of the Channel Islands, until his health compelled him first to substitute for it the piccolo, and finally to discon tinue playing altogether. He was a tall, thin, narrow-chested man, whose bright eyes and hol low but flushed cheeks spoke of consumption quite as significantly as did his long attenuated fingers and his harassing cough. But the most character istic of the people we saw was J. 8., aged 29, who had never done a turn of work for himself, and whose temperament strongly reminded us of Mr. Robert Stubbs, in Thackeray's " Fatal Boots." The misfortunes of the last-named worthy com menced before be was born, by the extravagance of Lis parents robbing Lim of his property, and Mr. J. B. seemed to have been equally unfortunate. His dead father's wickedly expensive experiments for the improvement of safety valves had wasted the substance which should have been his, and his mother now said " she was unable to help him out of her allowance of 12s. 6d. a week." Until three or four years ago, J. B. had lived at home ; but since that time he had been helped by a friend, who now " had turned against him, and was an enemy." He bad never been brought up to any trade, and the only thing he could do, or had tried to do, was a little map co louriug. That the ex-friend who was " now an enemy" should have "a house in the country, with carriages and servants and two bulldogs" (the last item being named as if it were a conclusive testi mony to the heartlessness of wealth), and that J. B. should be in his present plight, was put for ward as a proof of the way the world went " against him ;" and after replying to a hint from the master as to the duty of work with—" It's the duty of rich relations to help poor ones, and he a clergyman and a magistrate as well," this hulking, idle vagabond shambled oft to Lis bed. The ages of the female paupers ranged from twenty ' to sixty. There were servants of all work from " county Cork," one of whom had slept on a stair case for twelve nights, and whose late mistress had refused her a character " because of a few words we had;" and another who had "kept company with the soldiers," and so fallen on the streets. There was a woman of 32, who had formerly been barmaid at a public-house in the neighbourhood, who was now " unfortunate," and who said with a feeble toss of the head, which accorded but ill with her tearful eyes and quivering mouth, that "she wasn't tired of it yet ;' and a pretty fair-haired girl of 20, who had been " mistress of a house of her own in Pim lico, and paid 651. a year rent" within the twelve month, but whose old gilt-buttoned yachting jacket with its pinned-up holes and shabby scanty drape ries, told their sad story of misfortune and neglect. She bad left home with a gentleman, had lived with him in their own house, and been very happy. She was extravagant then, and bad all she wanted, but he died, and she'd now pawned her things and sold the fifty-two tickets for 31. She'd stayed in lodgings and at a friend's, but had fallen lower and lower until she had come to this. She was now footsore and weary with walking the streets ;and concluding her pathetic little history with a curtsey, she limped painfully to the ward. There was a decent, cleanly woman, of 32, whose husband, a brasscutter, had deserted her and enlisted, and who, she found on inquiry at the War-office, had deserted the army in its turn. She came from "Dublin, in Ireland," had lived fifteen months iu one place, and had now a four months' character from another ; but she'd tried for a situ ation in vain, had been to the register Aims fruit lessly, had no friends, and after being out for three nights had ventured to apply for relief bare. There were well-spoken, almost ladylike, middle aged women, who did laundry work ; others who made waistcoats, or bound boots—one servant out of a situation, the cause of whose dismissal was faltered unwillingly out, and who was now within a week of her coutineweut—suid needlewomeu and poor widows, who work at anything they can get. lu every instance misery seemed at its deepest—the clothes were ragged and wretchedly insufficient, and the poor creatures before us, whether men or women, were with one or two striking exceptions grateful, civil, and uucomplaining. By a few minutes after nine o'clock they had all answered the questions put to them and retired. Up a staircase and out of a door on the first floor of the workhouse, and we are iu a spacious yard, the pavement of which is on • level with the second windows of Hemming's-row, and other Louses iu the neighbourhood. This was formerly the burying-ground of St. Martin's, and the difference of level between it and the adjacent streets can thus be readily accounted for. The female casual ward is to the right, and many of the beds are already occupied, while other of the poor women are crouching near the fire, or with borrowed needle and thread are endeavouring to give the semblance of decency to their tattered rags. " Oh. quite full, sir," answers the work house attendant, adding with a fluent readiness which reminded one not pleasantly of the oft quoted insect on the leaf, "indeed there's been too 'lmlay let in already, and I've had to put them three in a bed." Crossing the yard we descend some steps, and next see all the men we have first heard ques tioned. There is no conversation ; they are too tired and miserable for that. Everyone is in bed, and the snores of several show them to be already asleep. The beds or couches are in fact large trays, and are divided from each other by a narrow ledge of,woud. There is of course no un dressiog, and each weary figure in the crowded room has the rug-like counterpane tightly wrapped round it, as if to revel as deeply as possible in the blessed warmth. The man who, never having worked for his living, declares the world "against him" because a distant relation won't support him in idleness iooke up as we enter, as if he would repeat his request that we should write on his behalf to the " friend" who " keeps two bull dogs, and is DOD an enemy ;" but we leave the room, and in a few minutes are iu Castle-street again, with the same cold, bright gaslight gleaming from the barrack wiLdows, the same busy air at the flaring gin-shop at the corner, and some poor houseleaa wretches seen shivering on the pavement, and huddled on the steps. It is curious, moreover, to note the family likeness which exists between these and the ones i you have left inside. There are girls and men in the Forchway of Archbishop Tenison's school who might nave given the answers you have noted to the questions you have beard, much as if indivi duality were destroyed by exposure: and want, and as if nights spent in the street left this uniform I brand upon every face. It is by this time nearly ten o'clock, and here and ou the steps at the back of the National Gallery, twenty-three of these people are stationed. Au hour later their number has been reduced by seven, and at twelve o'clock there are but thirteen. These, however, are without money, and have no hope of changing their situation' or obtaining shelter. The workhouse is, as we know, crammed, and the law providing house-room for all destitute applicants necessarily inoperative. Probably, there is not one out of the forty work , houses in the metropolitan poor-law district which is not at this hour equally full, as most of these poor people know by bitter experience. The guar dians of St. Martin's are about to transfer the female casual ward from one aide of the yard to the other, but this will not increase the accommodation at their disposal. All their available space is occu pied ; it is difficult to say how they can extend their system of relief on their present ground, and it is notorious that many of our other workhouses are equally crowded. Meanwhile winter is upon us, and though it is a curious fact that from the torpor induced by exposure or other causes, the colder the night the fewer the applications for shelter, it is all important that the new regulations for the relief of our homeless poor should not be rendered nuga tory through insufficient machinery. We cannot afford to have another crop of deaths in the streets, and it may be asked, in default of other sugges tions, whether some out of the long line of railway arches now lying empty and useless in our poorest and most crowded metropolitan distncts could not be cheaply utilised for the nightly reception of such , men, women, and children as have been necessarily excluded from the crowded workhouses, and must otherwise find their resting-place on the cold pave ment, with, perhaps, the biting atmosphere for their winding-sheet.

Yesterday having been appointed for the further inquiry into the charges against Mr. Terry, the late manager of the London and Middlesex Bank, and of the Unity Bank, which was afterwards merged into that esti blishment, and Mr. Burch, the secretary, of having pub lished a false and fraudulent balance-sheet, and having by this and other prvoeedinp been the means of defrauding the shareholders to the extent of 140,0001„ the ggrreeaatest interest_ appeared to be exhibited to hear the • Ira The Le rd Mayor took his seat on the bench in the justice room of the Mansion-house shortly after ce• o'clock, and the prisoners, for whom bail had been refueled and who, pending the inquiry, have been committed to Newgate, were shortly afterwards placed at the bar. The prosecution was conducted by Mr. C. Lewis, on behalf of the liquidators of the hoodoo and Middlesex Bank. Mr. Sleigh., the barrister, instructed by Mr. Watson, appeared on behalf of Mr. Terry; and Mr. Metcalfe, the barrister, instructed by M r . W on t ner , j un ., appeared for Mr. Burch. It may be as well to state that the defeodants were charged with misdemeanor, under a clause ietroduoed into the Fraudulent Trustees Act, after the discovery of the enormous frauds in connection with the Royal British Bank, which enacts that soy p erson s t an d ing i n t h e pos i t i on o f manager, director, secretary, or in any oth e r wa y connec t e d with a bank, or other public body of the like description, who shall knowingly and wilfully, and with intent to defraud. publish any false statements in relation to such establish. ment, with the intent to deceive the shareholders or other persons interested, shall be guilty of the offence above mentioned, and be subject, at the discretion of the count, to be seotenced to five years penal servitude, or to be no priaounijwith or without hard labour, u may be directed by the court, for the smog of two years. Mr. Oswald B. Howell, the accountant, was recalled and further examined. He mid that there appeared to be a customer of the bank named Buoyard, who wan indebted to it for overdue acceptances sod other matters to the amount of 4,900/., but this sum did not appear to be stated in the list of overdue bills that was submitted to the director'. A book was kept to which all such bills ought to have been eutered, and the entries were made either by Mr. Terry or Mr. Burch, but no entry of this sum appeared in the book. There was another customer, named Lowenthal. He ap peared to have been in the habit of discouutiog largely with the bank, and most of his bills were accepted by a person named ("onside'. A number of them bills appeared to have been stopped from presentation when they became doe. This appeared to have been done by Mr. Terry. Lowenthal was formerly a customer of the Unity Bask. Mr. Sleigh submitted that this evidence was quite irrelevant. M. Lewis said that what be proposed to prove, in addi tion to the fact that had bees deposed to, was that, with the knowledge by Mr. Terry that Lowenthal was largely in debted to the Unity Bank upon overdue acceptances, he had al.owed him to open au account with the Loudon mid Middlesex Beak, and had discounted largely for him, and nude • false statement to the director,, upon the subject. Mr. Howell then reed an extract from the board minute book, which was to the effect that Mr. Terry had been called upon to explain to the directors the circumstances connected with the account of Mr. Lowenthal, and that he admitted baying deceived the directors, and that be had been induced to give Lowenthal further accommodation with • view to rodeoe the amount of his liability to the bank. He also asserted that be had reduced it by this means from 7,1/001. to :1,000/., and he believed that in time the whole amount would be laud. and he at the same time admitted that what he had dose was without the authority of the directors. It was a mistake, he said, no doubt, that he should have taken this course, but he thought he wee justified, as be hoped as the result to get the whole of the money that was due from Lowenthal repaid to the bank. The witness then stated that there was another customer of the bank, named Sterne, and at the time the balance sheet that was the subject of the present inquiry was made out by the defendants he owed the bank 41601. Part of this sum consisted of a dishonoured cheque for 1.0951. This cheque was dishonoured in December, 1861, and it re mained in the custody of the bank until it stopped in August, 1862, and in the balanceaheet of June, 1862, this dishonoured cheque was made to appear as part of the wets of the bank. and was included in t h e total of assets represented to be in existence at that date, the amount being 38.716/. Between the 30th of June. when this balance.sheet was published, and the stoppage of the bank, 31r. Sterns overdrew his account to the amount of 8141. Mss, the detective, was here called upon to produce a number of cheques, and Mr. Lewis proposed to ask the accountant some questions respecting them. Mr. Sleigh wished to know what cheques they were that were proposed to be given in evidence. Mr. Lewis said they were cheques drawn by the de fendant, Terry, upon the Unity Bank, where he kept an account. Mr. Sleigh rid it smeared to him that they had nothing to do with Mr. Tern's private amount at the Unity Bank. Ile could not see rites was the object of going into such evidence. Mr. Lewis mid that his object was to show the dealings between the parties, and how tines large sums of money were disposed of. The Lord Mayor said he should hear the evidence. This having been glean, it waa proposed to adjourn the ease. and Mr. Sleigh said he Loped his lordship bed cossideredfthe question of bail, upon which he had addressed him upon the last examination. The Lord Mayor said that he had considered the matter, and taking into consideration the long period over which the inquiry would extend, be was willing to accept bail, but the bail that he would require would be two good sureties in I,UWI. each for each of the defendants, and their own recognisance* in 2,01.10/. _ _ Mr. Macelle said that on the pert of his client be was eery glad him lordship had agreed to accept bail, its be wan prepared with • complete answer to the charge, and would be prepared to fully establish the innocence o f Mr. Butch, both morally sod legally. Mr. Lewis required notice of bail, and the defendants were remanded formally until this day (Saturday), when the bail will be tendered, and theme will then stand remanded until Monday week. CRYsTAL PALAcE.—The general meeting of the company will be held, u usual, on Wednesday, December 14. The directors have resolved on recommending the proprietors to declare • dividend of 2 per cent. (2a. per share) on the ordinary stock for the year ending October U. THE ♦LLEGED ENLISTMENT FOE THE FEDERAL ARET.—It is understood that the corporate officials in Liverpool have received from the Home•oSloe an intimation th►t the government intends to proceed legally in the case of the supposed kidnapping of men and eniregemeet of others to go out in the Unmet Western to New York, for the pur pose of enlisting in the Federal army, It was not, however, determined yesterday what the course of proceeding in the first instance should be. The Town Clerk was in communi cation with the Home Secretery, but it was not disclosed, up to a late hour in the afternoon, whether soy definite in struction had been received. The Great Western was still detained in the river, and the important witnesses were re. cuired to keep themselves in communication with the police. A large number of women, from Dublin and else where, arrived in Liverpool yesterday, in @carob of their husbands, whom they wished to dissuade from proceeding in the vessel. Several of them went on board, but upon their return declared that their husbands, who b►d oonsented to return to shore with them, had been forcibly prevented from doing so. The only important addition ti the facts of the case, in its legal aspect, is the statement of ' one of the young men from Loodoo, who were promised commissions, that the first question asked him was whether he knew his drill well (he having on his nile-cap at t h e time), and that there was at least one witness to the offer of commissions, who can be produced. Late yesterday after. 4000 a telegram was received by Mr. Hull (of Hull. Stone. and Fletcher, solicitors), from Sir George Grey, directing him to send up to the Home-office the cfiidevits of the ten London men still 'email:nog in Liverpool. Ten affidavits made by men from Ashton were sent previously. The local authorities have determined to leave the case in the hands of the government, as it is a national matter. The weather was too bed to allow the police to board the Crest Western yesterday. COLLISION ON THE NORTH EASTT.RR RAILWAY.- On Wednesday afternoon, as a train of coal laden vraggooe numbering ferty4ive was deecesding the incline of Hes- Won Bank, on the North Eastern Railway, about four tui!es from Hartlepool, with a wire-rope attached, the rope broke and the waggons went towards Hartlepool with frightful velocity, gaining more and more speed as they programed. On the mine line was a train of laden waggons with an 'NODS at its head staodiog at the coke depot at the heed of Victoria Docks, and the engruernan (Walter .lames), observing the waggons, when about a mile off, coming on the same line without an eogine, put on full steam end went forward with the intention of reversing the steam prior to meeting them, in order that he might break the " way." He fouud, however, that the velocity of the train was such that when he had only proceeded a few verde it was necessary to reverse the steam and jump off the engine to secure his own safety. The steam of hi s eng i ne had hardly begun to invert the locomotive when a collision took place. The engine was sadly broken in at the fore part, and ten or a dozes waggons of the runaway train were hurled up into the air, sad snuishixi into innumerable fragments, the contents being scattered about in all direc tions, while fur a few momenta the vicinity wee envelope.' in a cloud of coal dust. Oa its subsiding it was found that about a dolma waives were a perfect wreck, and several others were more or lees injured. The line throughout the whole extent of the two trains was strews with coal, and some delay was oocaaioeed before traffic was resumed. The &eote, it is computed, will amount to PWI. or 300/.
