THORLEY'S FOOD FOR CATTLE.- It is only a short time since this singularly efficacious article Of animal diet first made its appearance ; and already its celebrity 18 world•wide. It has been a subject of wonder, and has puzzled many a brain to explain how this has been brought about. Yet when we are acquainted with a few facts concerning the food, our wonder willeease. A. few days since, a gentleman wrote, stating that he had a horse which was a " perfect hag of bones." lle tried all kinds of things to get the animal into condition, but in vain. lie then bought some of Thorley's food; and he says the effect was w onderful. The horse rapidly grew fat, cad in the course of a few weeks had gained no less than 12 stones. Again we find at the late a gricultural show at Birmingham, Cardiff, &c., the animals which carri e d off the highest prizes had been partly fed with Thorlep's tfood for cattle. such facts speak for themselves, and we are forced to the conclusion that its celebrity arises solely from its own in 'aste merits, and the great demand for it can proceed alone from the good opinion and testimony of those who have tried it. All p ar ties interested in horses and cattle will do well to apply t o 77 . re `s London, for a pamphlet which is sent post-freo.

An appalling calamity occurred upon the Oxford, Worces ter and Wolverhampton Railway, between Brettel-lane and Round Oak railway stations on Monday evening. A special train was announced to leave Wolverhampton for Worcester at 9.15, " calling at all stations for the express purpose of conveying the teachers and children of the various schools to Worcester and back." The fare from Wolverhampton and Stourbridge and all intermediate stc;ons to Worcester and back was ls. for adults, and 63. fur children ; from Hagley, Churchill, Kidderminster, and Worcester it was Bd. for adults, and 4d. for children ; and Droitwich and Fearnall Heath, 6d. for adults, and 3d. for children. This extraordi nary low rate of charges naturally attracted a large number of passengers, and by the time the train arrived at its desti nation it had been augmented to 45 carriages, computed to contain nearly 2,000 passengers. The return train was an nounced to leave Worcester at 6.15 p.m. Those in charge of the arrangements determined to divide the train, and instead of baying one monster train propelled by two engines, to have two trains each drawn by one engine. Accordingly, about 25 minutes after six o'clock, the first train left Worcester station. It consisted of 29 carriages, closely packed with passengers; and was followed in a quarter of an hour by the second train, consisting of 16 carriages. Each train called at all stations, and all went well with the first until its arrival at Round Oak, which took place about five minutes past eight. There, either just before the train arrived at the station, which is situated on a steep incline, or when it was put in motion to leave the station, 12 or 13 of the last carriages became detached from the former part of the train by the breaking of the couplings of two of the carriages, and rolled back down the incline towards Brettel-lane with ever increasing velocity. The guard who occupied the van at the extremity of the train applied his break with all the force of which it was capable, but its power was insufficient to check the retrograde motion of the carriages, which soon attained a very high rate of speed. On arriving at Bug-hole, a little more than half way to Brettel-lane, they dashed into the second excursion train, which, as before stated, was despatched from Worcester only fifteen minutes after the first, and being a lighter train, naturally gained upon it during the journey. The driver of the second train, perceived the carriages running back upon him down the incline, and had nearly succeeded in bringing his train to a stand at the time of the collision, thus considerably mitigating the severity of the crash. But as it was, the consequences were fearful. The guard's van and the carriage next to it were split into matchwood, and the second carriage escaped little better. The guard jumped out just before the collision occurred, and escaped without injury, but the effect upon the passengers crowded in the two shattered carriages was dreadful. The scene that ensued it is impossible to describe. Fragments of the crushed and broken carriages, mutilated human forms, some still in death, some writhing in their last agonies, others seriously but not fatally hurt, shrieking with pain and terror, were commingled in a general melee, hardly distinguishable amid the darkness and the dust occasioned by the colli sion. The terrified passengers who escaped without serious injury ran hither and thither in bewilderment, and for a time zone knew what to do. A few of the more self possessed, however, speedily bestirred themselves to render all possible assistance to the unfortunate sufferers, and re move them from the wreck that bestrewed the line, and messengers were despatched for medical and other aid. It was soon apparent that the loss of life was lamentably great. Eleven lifeless forms were discovered amongst the rubbish, in addition to many frightfully mangled and dis figured. As speedily as possible the latter were conveyed on stretchers, furnished by the shivered coaches, to the various hotels in the neighbourhood; and the next duty attended to was the removal of the dead in like manner. Many of those only slightly injured proceeded onwards by the train, and it is probable that a complete list of the casualties resulting from this sad affair will never be obtained. The removal of the wounded was effected under the superintendence of Mr. Wall, assistant to Mr. Norris, the company's surgeon, at Brierley Hill, who was first upon the ground; but other medical men soon arrived, and took charge of cases at the inns, to which the sufferers v:cre con; c 3 cd. Amongst these were D:. Walker, Micrley Hill, and his assistant ; Mr. W. E. Johnson, surgeon, of Dudley, and Mr. Horton, his assistant; Mr. Osborne and Mr. Harding, of Stourbridge ; Mr. Tomlinson, from Mr. Freer's ; Mr. Evans, from Mr. Giles's, of Stout-bridge, &e. &-c. Information of the occurrence was instantly tele grapbe.. eieeese,, anti snout half-past Mr. Sherriff, the general manager, with Mr. Adcock and Mr. W. Carden, and Mr. Everett, surgeons to the company, arrived by special train from Worcester. DEA . At the Swan Inn. Edward Matthews, who had lived near the Ivy House, Coseley. The deceased had a severe wound over the left eye, had his left leg dreadfully mangled, and the bone shaqered, that must have produced fatal hfemorrlinge, and the left leg broken near the ankle. Joseph Baker, Prince's-end, puddler—Shocking injuries to the heal and ether parts of the body. The third dead body here is supposed to be that of a man named Mills, of Bloomfield. His feet have been cut off and his head injured. Mrs. Sheldon (whose brother and son are also dead). The head of this poor woman was frightfully crushed, and her legs were much cut. She was also far advanced in preg nancy. She comes from Prince'e-end. Mrs. Kildrick, with her head in a yet more mutilated state than that of Sheldon. At the Moor-lane Hall Beer-house. The man Sheldon, from Prince's-end—Died at abonl eight on Tuesday morning, after his legs had been ampu sated. arrived at Round Oak, it was discovered that the train had been divided at a short distance from the station, from whence it was pushed back at a very slow rate to a point within 100 yards of the scene of the accident. During this retrograde movement numerous signal lamps were seen in front of the backing train. When, however, the fact was made known that the part of the line at which the train became disconnected was inclined towards Kidderminster, and that a train having left Worcester in 15 minutes after the starting of the first, a collision had taken place, the scene was truly heartrending in the extreme. A great number of the passengers rushed from the carriages to endeavour to recognise their children and friends, but so great was the crush that it was quite im possible to do so—the darkness of the hour (between eight and nine o'clock), and the mist rising, precluding the possibility of identification. At length, however, when the three broken carriages, which almost covered the poor sufferers, bad been removed, and a light had been procured, the passengers were enabled to recognise their relatives and friends. The scene at this moment—the lamentation of relatives and the groans of the sufferers— conspired to render this one of the most appalling catas trophes ever recorded in the long catalogue of railway acci dents. The wounded and dead were then carefully taken to the adjacent inns. From the LONDON GAZE2'TB of Yesterday. FOREIGN-OFFICE, JUNE 26.

AQUATICS. SCULLERS' MATCH FOR £6O. A E cullers' race for the above amount came off yesterday between James Finnis, waterman, of Wapping, and Thomas Cannon, waterman, of the same place; but a more run away aflhir was never seen. The conditions were that Finnis was to allow Cannon six lengths at the finish, and the match had been postponed from Saturday week. No money was laid out upon the event, although the Venus went with the race. Fidnis won the toss, and they were together for 50 yards, when Finnis went right away, and, increasing his lead, won with the greatest ease. The distance was from Putney to Mortlake. AUGUST 13.

The village of Eaton—or Idleton, as it Was originally called, from its proximity to the blinks of the river Idle—in of great antiquity, and is stated to have been in early Saxon times a place of some importance. It is probable that it was • near this village that the battle recorded by Bede (A.D. 617) was fought between Redwald, King ef the Angles, and Etbelfrcd, King of the Northumbrians. The combat took place on the " cast side of the liver that is called Idle." Its issue placed Ea Pennine or Elwyn on the throne of North umbria. The king, says Kemele, held the first witnea gemot, of which we have any detailed record, at York (AD. 6 - 27), "wherein no les s i mportant was discussed than the deser• tion of paganism and reception of Christianity by the people of Northumbet land." Edwyn built a wooden church at York, at which he, the nohitity, "and a large number of the common wort" were hap , ic e d on April 1'2,627. The former parish church was a very ancient structure, having some slight remains of Norman architecture. It had become much dilapidated, and its exterior had been from time tl time repaired in the most barbarous fashion. The new church has bees erected at the expense of Henry Bridgman Simpson, Esq., the proprietor ef the whole parish of Eaton, with the exception of the church land. The church consists of a nave, porch, vestry, bell-turret, and spire. It is rebuilt in the style of architecture now usually termed Decorated. Tnis style prevailed during the reignef the first three Edwards. As is usual in that style, the windows vary in the form and detail of their tracery. The roofs are open timbered in a series of arches, with wind traces. The sittings or kneelizgs are open benches. The chancel is stalled, and this work, the pulpit, prayer desk, communion table, and rails, are of carved oak. The west window, of richly-painted and stained glass, having for its subject the Crucifixion, is given by Mts. Coupland in memory of her husband till daugh ters; it bears the foliowiug inscription, "To the glory of Uod, and in affectionate remembrance of Thomas Coup land, woo died December 12, MO, aged GO years. Also, of Charlotte, who died Decemher'l7:lB,sl, aged 32 years, and Susanna, who died August 2, 11345, aged 23, his daughters." The upper part of this window is very beatitiful, and was _ _ greatly admired by these present. .A.a.u;sll aisle winihrat site the f,nt and porch, with figures of St. Peter and - St.. - d,' is presented by the Rev. John' Twells, and bears this inscrip tion—" This window was presented to this church by John Twells, M.A., Trin. Coil., Camb., Vicar of this parish; and Rector of Gainston, anno domini, 1838." The architect is Mr. G. Shaw, of St. Chads, Satidleworth, near - Manchester, by whom the whole of the building and fitting§ ' including the ',skit ed glass, was executed. The church has been about a year in building. • Amongst the company present we noticed H. B. Simpson, Esq., and Mrs. Simpson, Miss Simpson (Bilton, near Rugby), W. F. Baring, Esq., B.

Ou entering the church, the bishop proceeded to thi com munion table, when rte vicar presented the petition for consecration, which the bishop delivered to the registrar, Mr. John Swan, of Lincoln, who read it aloud. The bishop and the clergy len walked from the east co the west cud of the church, and back again, repeating alternately the 24 is Psalm, the bishop beginning: "The earth is the Lord's," &c. The bishop then took his seat on the north side of the communion table. The deed of conveyance for the church and the new churchyard was then presented by the vicar to the bishop, who laid it upon the table, and as soon as the vicar entered the reading desk, the bishop, standing up, turned to the congregation, and said : —" Dearly beloved in the Lord, forasmuch as devout and holy men, as well under the Law as under the Gospel, moved either by secret inspi ration of the Holy Spirit, or by the express enntnand of rhel, es I , s - tier can reason or sense of eider and decency, have erected houses for the public worship of God, and separated them Irons all profane and coutmun rases, in order to fill men's minds with greater reverence for His glorious Majesty, and to affect choir hearts with more devotion and humility in His service; which pious works have been ap proved and graciously accepted by our heavenly Father. Let us not doubt but that He will also favourably approve our present purpose of setting apart this place, in solemn manner, for the performance of the several offices of reli gious worship, and let us faithfully and devoutly pray for Ills blessing on this our underteking." After t! is the Liseop, still standing, repeated the form of prayer used at the consecration of a church in reference to baptism, confit melon, snarriage,.&c. The bishop then took his seat, and the senteece of conse cration was read aloud by the registrar, after which it was signed by the bish o p, and by hi m ordered to be registered in his registry. The vicar then read the service for the day. The first lesson was read by the Rev. E. 11. Vernon, of Grove, and the second by the Rev. H. Morse, of Tuxlmd. Af:er the collect far the day, &c., the bishop said the following prayer —" Blessed he Thy name, 0 Lord, that it bath pleased Thee to put into the heart of thy servant to erect this house to thy honour and worship. Bless, 0 Lord, him, his family, and substance, and accept the work of his hands; remember him concerning this; wipe not out this kindness that he hath showed fur the House of his God and the officers thereof; and grant that all those who shall enjoy the benefit of this pious work, may show forth their thank fatness by making a riodit use of it, to the glory of thy blessed Name, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. The bishop then read the Nicene Creed, and afterwards the Old 100th Psalm was sung. The rev. prelate then ascended the pulpit, and took his text from the 6;11 chapter of the 2tl episrle to the Corinthians, 16,1 i verse, " Fsr ye arc the temple of ti e living God; as God has said, I will dwe;l in them and walk in them ; and I will be their Ged, and they shall be my people,"from which he deivered a short but interesting and profitable discourse, showing in the first place how the Church or Christians were a temple of the living God; and secondly, that all sincere Chris tiaes indi% idually are temples of the living God, and that he dwells in ti cm by his Spirit, and that if any one defile the temple by sin, such person will God destroy, unless they sincerely repent of their wicked Less. One or two important lessons were then deduced from the subject—That it is an awful reflection fer itisse who did not constitute the temp'e of God, end that his anger was kindled against them; and in the next place, how important for those who are real Christians that they w aPs sprightly and act as Goii's pecu liar people; and lastly, that we should praise God for caus ing us to be part of his temple. The object for which this new church had keen built, said the bishop, was to build up Christians ill the temple of the Lord Jesus No collection was made after the rerraon, es the ch urc h had been built at the sole expense of H. Bridgemau iiitrp son Esq., and no money was therefore needed. the car e : li v ur l e ic h tl ya v, i a d i , \Viten the service in the church was finished, the bishop and c l erg y, with the topeople, i‘ r . e en pa i i :y si thev t h e additisa to which Mil u also consecrated, and proceeded round the ground, saviug a lternately the 49th Psalm: "0 hear ye this, all ye P . eo . - - peo ple, e. the Then bishop, standing following prayer :—" in a small tent, repeated the 0 God, who has taught us in thy Holy Word, that acre is a diMrcnce between the spirit of a beast that goeth do.tnvsards to the earth, and the stint of a man which aseend e th up to God who gave it, and likewise by the exemple of thy holy servants, in all ages has taught us to assign peculiar places, where the bodies of thy saints may rest in peace, a , 1,1 be preserved front all iudignit 7 es, whilst their souls are safely kept in the hands of their faith ful Redeemer : accept, we beseech Thee, this charitable work ofours, setting apart this portion ground to that good purpo , e, and give us gt ace that by the frequent instances of , n a i d r t so a : i howutyuwfbirieli number our 1 i and w e d a behold, ya s we l h n and er e seriously onearth i consider,s uncertainto m our rendition ly apply our hearts unto wis dom; that in the midst' of life thirk ing upon death, and daily preparing ourselves for the judgment that is to follow, we may have our part in the resurrection to eternal life, with Hint who died for cur sins, and rose again for our jets tificatien, and now liveth and teigneth with Thee and the holy Ghost, one God, world without end. Amen." Several verses of the 39th Psalm were then sung. The opening services were renewed in the evening, when the Rev. J. Tsvells preached an impressive sermon from the 6th chapter of the 2d of Chronicles and the 40th and 41st verses, "Now, my God, let, 1 beseech Thee, thine eyes be open, and let thine ears be attentive unto the prayer that is made in this place," &c. The prayers were read by the Lord Bishop, and the lessons by tlie:Rev. Edward Julius, of Billingray. The congregation in the evening was very good. In the morning the church was tilled to overflowing. Mr. Denman, organist of St. Saviour's Church, Retford, presided at the harmonium, and was assisted by some of the choir of that church.
