I burst out laughing, and he sparred over right at me. Ile had his knife in his hand but I did not Fee it then, and he struck me on the left aide below the ribs, and I felt I was stabbed. I followed him a little way and then I fell. Then he ran away iu the direction Shadwell Church. I knew the prisoner before ; he is the 14.111.

The accident which occurred on Monday evening last, on the London and North-Western Railway, near Oldbury, occasioned considerable excitement and gossip yesterday. Occurring at so late en hour little was known of the affair until the following morning, in the town of Old bury. The pointsman in charge of the box at Oldbury Station positively states that his danger signal was up when the goods train from Buahbury arrived, and oleo that he hoisted his own hand lamp in order to warn the driver of the approaching goods train which ran into the break van and trucks which were stationed at the Eton Lens Dada. The warning, however, owing to the dimes fog which pre was either unobserved or unheeded until too late, and 'cm at • good speed about tLfteen trucks were smelted, and both lines com pleted y blocked for some time. The stoker's hand was slightly injured, and the goods guard, who remained at hippest, was very much shakes, so math DO that upon arriving at Dudley Port soon after the accident, he said, to use his own words, " that it nearly shook all the hair from his head." With the exception of these, no bodily injury was sustained. It was not until 5 o'clock last evening that both lines could be cleared, but after that time all went on rightly.—BireviegAses But. A HAN WOUNDAD AY HIS IVIFB AND HIS DAUGHTAR. In the Wolverhampton police court. yesterday, before Mr. 0. L. Underhill, Mr. C. B. Mender, and Mr. 31. Ironmonger, Eli= Evans was charged with assaulting and inflicting grievous bodily harm upon her father, Henry Evans; and Sarah Evans, wife of the com plainant, was charged with attempting to wound Lim. On Monday evening last, between 7 and ti o'clock. when the three were at their home in Bell street, a dispute arose, and the father struck a sailor who associated with the daughter, Eliza Evans. Upon this she rose and struck her father a fierce blow on the head with a piece of three-cornered iron which lay near the grate, and which was used as a poker. An extensive wound, opening the scalp right across the left side of the head, and leading to a profuse flow of blood, resulted. The injured man was conveyed to the South Staffordshire Hospital. where his wounds were dressed, and the sur geons advised that he should not be removed. Ile, how ever, insisted upon returning home, and there a quarrel took place between him and his wife. Police-constable Lilly was passing at the time, and saw the wife stabbing her wounded husband in the left side with a table-knife, which she held firmly in her hand by the assistance of a cloth wrapped round the handle. As sisted by a civilian, the officer disarmed the wife, and took both to the station, where they were kept all night with the daughter, who had been previously taken into custody by Police-constable Cross. The wife did not inflict a wound in her husband's side ; the knife was round pointed, and would only pierce the clothes. Eliza Brans, the daughter, was committed for trial at the sessions. The charge against the older prisoner ultimately resolved itself into one of common assault, and she was sent to prison for two months, with bard labour.—Binsatageoni Post. DEP-IRTI'AZ OF imIXARY CARPILYTER FOR INDIA Yesterday Miss Mary Carpenter left her re4i deme. Red-lodge-house, Bristol, for Marseilles. en route for ludia, to which distant empire she pays a second visit. for the 'arrest of founding a system of schools, with a view to the elevation of the native female character. Miss Carpenter was accompanied by a young lady she has adopted as a daughter, and she will be followed by another route by some English ladies who are to assist her in the conduct of an iutended normal college, and in other of her philanthropic works. Miss Carpenter's former visit to India was ono merely for investigation and inquiry, and it was therefore comparatively bnef in its duration. Her present intention is, however. should her health be vouchsafed to her, to remain until she has placed her meditated operations on a secure working footing. The withdrawal of the distinguished phil anthropist from her native city, and from the reforma tory and industrial schools and other social institutions of which she had the supervision, very naturally caused a feeling of regret, and on Monday and Tuesday public ex pression was given to that feeling. On Monday a number of persons connected with the conduct of the Ragged Schools, the Workmen's Halls, and other institutions, met at the ball on St. James's Back, and presented to Miss Carpenter an address, in which they expressed the regret occasioned by her meditated departure from England. their earnest hope that her labours would be attended by entire success, and aspirations for her safe return, at no distant period, to her native England. Miss Car penter, who appeared to feel the kind expressions of sympathy very much, replied in a feeling and pertinent address, in the course of which she referred to the strong sense of Christian duty towards the women of India which had led her to undertake the journey to that distant clime, and avowed her trust in Him who alone could give success to any enterprise. Mies Carpenter afterwards shook hands with those present, and presented to each, as a token of parting remembrance, a copy of the " Morning and Evening Meditations." On Monday afternoon a much larger meeting was held in the lecture hall attached to the Lewin's Mead Chapel. The her. W. James occupied the chair, and there were many ladies and gentlemen of influence and position present. The rev. chair man presented to Miss Carpenter a splendidly bound Bible and hymn-book, suitably inscribed, and also a purse of money towards the funds of her school. It had been the wish. he stated, of some ladies to have given to her some ornament for her person ; but it had been subsequently thought that it would be consonant to her feelings that the presentation should take the form it bad assumed. Mr. James also read a farewell address to Miss Carpenter. Miss CLIZZ2MiIIi, in acknowl edg ing the presentation. spoke at some length, and expressed her gratitude to those friends who had kindly presented her with the address, Bible, and hymn-book. TUE WAR WITH AMERICAN INDIANd.—The fol lowing despatch has been received at the headquarters of the department of Missouri in the field :—" Detach ment of U. S. Troops, at the Dry Fork of the North Fork of the Republican River, Sept. 25, 1868.—Colonel Forsythe sends his love. He n badly wounded, but will be able to travel to-morrow. Lieutenant Beecher, of the Third Infantry, died of his wounds and is buried. Lieutenant-Colonel Carpenter arrived here yesterday at 6 o'clock a.m. His promptness and celerity of movement deserves credit. The scouts I sent from Fort Wallace met on Beaver Creek, they having been driven back by the Indians. I started them again, but they could not tied the command of Oeneral Bradley, who did not reach the Forks until yesterday. Forsythe's men fought despe rately. The details of his fight I leave for him. His spirited and noble conduct encouraged his men. There are few eases on record of more desperate fighting and con tinued endurance without food, except horseflesh, and surrounded by the dead and dying. I cannot remove the dead, but the doctors say I can remove the wounded to-morrow to Fort Wallace. Colonel Forsythe estimates the number of Indians at 600. He takes this estimate from the judgment of old-experienced scouts. They were Cheyennes, Arapahoes, and Sioux. Lieutenant- Colonel Carpenter reports that he struck the trail' and place where they had encamped, probably for two days after leaving here, and the trails show that they are going south-east toward Beaver Creek, He found the bodies of fire ludian warriors, Cheyennes, about eighteen miles from Forsythe's camp, evidently some of the killed in the fight with Forsythe. There must have been at seventy-five Indians killed or wounded at the lowest esti mate. Colonel Forsythe lost of his party five killed and fifteen wounded, and all his horses. The following is the list:—Killed—Lieutenant F. H. Beecher, Acting-Surgeon Moore, F. W. Culver, Wm. Wilson, and Louis Farley. Wounded—Colonel C. A. For she (twice), Win. Arm strong, C. B. Clarke, Barney Day, H. Farley, Richard Gantt, John Haley, F rank Harrington, W. H. H. McCall, Howard Martin, Thomas O'Donell, H. H. Tucker, Louis McLaughlin, Harry Davenport, S. R. Davis.—! have the honour to remain your obedient servant, HENRY U. lii.NRILERD, Brevet-Colonel Commanding." Teri THREE-CORNERED CONSTITUENCIES.—The Nonconformist sheen that the minority clause of the Re form Bill ap p to seven counties —viz., Berk', Bucks, Caudaidge, — Dorset, Hereford, Herts, and Oxford, each of which returns three members. It will also come into °legation in five boroughs,—viz., Birmingham, Iststls, Liverpool, Glasgow, and Manchester, to which a third number was assigned by the late acts, and was further applied to the City of London, repre sented by four members. This will make a total Of thirteen constituencies returning forty members, which will be affected by the minority clause. The Name constituencies returned, in 1866, thirty-live members (t wen ty conservatives and fifteen liberals). Diving the suppoiters of the government the full benefit of doubt ful contests, it seems probable that the teats affected by the minority principle will he about equally divided, in which ease the liberal party would benefit by the experi ment to the extent of five seata. This deduction, how ever, implias that they would have limn unable. if this innovation bad not been made, to have gained a sent during the present election for B urks, Bucks, and Oxford. It thus appears that, so far as the more number of votes in parliament 35 concerned, the minority clause will not pro duee any considerable change. • THE EASTERN FIRTIERIES. — There bun been a considerable improvement in the •iie and quality of the the herrings landed et Great Yarmouth during the last few days. Priam have varied very considerably from day to day. The Lowestoft boats are now settling their accounts at the close of a successful North Sea voyage, previously to ornamenting the home fishery.

HALFPENNY NEWSPAPER.4.—Tbe attempt to produce a respectable evening newspaper at the price of a halfpenny has been painfully brief. A little sheet which has, during the last few days, sought to live on these terms has come abruptly to grief, and yesterday evening it announced the end of its career. Not even an original story could save it. However, from a high feeling of honour, " Who shot the Squire t" is to be continued in a weekly periodical. The Rev. F. 0. Lee, vicar of All Saint's, Latn beth, says that at the recent Harvest Thanksgiving in his church, no crucifix, "but only a cross," was carried in procession; and, that Mecum was not used during the Communion Serviee, but "only before the commencement and after the conclusion of the same—a practice which is in no way foibilldon by the recent lucid and impartial judgment of the Arches' Cant." The unfortunate disturbance{ in Blackburn appear likely to continuo. There w.is a series of fights, arising from political feeling, on Monday night, and in one case, at least, serious, if not Lital, injuries wore inflicted. A woman, attempting to get her husband out of trouble, was severely kicked by a man with whom he was fighting, and lies in a precarious state. Some damage was afterwards , done to a Reform Club building, and to a convent. Several persons are in custody. THE FATAL.

This letter was received by Harding°, who wrote the following answer : " Deer Mr. Ttiphook, " What is feared by you, " The melancholy circionstanoi is true— " True I am dad ; and, more afflicting still, " My IT' ashen will not pay your bill ; " For, ;to tame it I ant broken-hearted, "This transient life insolvent I departed, " And so for you there's not a single farthing.
