EPSOM The Oaks this :roar has IX et (Ed if - SS I hi , n Its wont, d in forest, none of the hors! s I . y:cited for it having hewn that decided sepori , ri:y which made the Flying Dutchman, Tadmor, and Nunn kirk such extraordi• nary favourites. Ha e virg ten, therefore, that even the Rfrby failed to prove so attractive as usual, we were not prepared to expect a gnat attendance. Yesterday we were agreeably disappointed, for in every re! pact it proved to en the best " ailts Day" that has bet n known for many years; the company included not only all the fashionaFiles present on Wed neselay, but Royal Htg,hness Prince George of Cam bridge, attended by the Hon. Captain Macdonald, the Marqiiis of Wore, ster, Earl of Cardigan, Earl of Suffield, Earl Spencer, Lard Andover. Lord Emlyn, and several ladies of title. The Grand Stand was crowded, and, if we may judge from the dusty state of the approaches to the roads and the heat of the weather, that porti , ,n of it which was appropriated to Mr. Lumley atAl his staff must have come in for more than its customary share of patronage. As on Wedneday, the members of the ring found little inducement to dwell in the town. Therefore, after a brief sojourn at the King's Head, they ad journed to the Grand Stand, where business com menced shortly after twelve o'clock. At first Sister to Ai kwright was back, d at 4 to 1, and 5 to 1 laid against Clarissa, and 11 to 2 against Gauca. Clarissa then came more prominently into notice, and for a short period was first favourite, at 4to 1. Glauca came next, and finally Sister to Arkwright, the latter having the call at the finish. The race, like the Derby, re zulted in favour of a member of the " Upper House," one of the most popular men on the turf. His Lord ship has since given the name of Lady Evelyn to his mare. The two succeeding races were contested by large fields, and brought the meeting to a successful termination at half-past five o'clock. The Oaks Stakes of 50 sovs. each, h ft; for three-year old fillies, Bst 71b each; the second to receive 100 sovs. out of the stakes, and the winner to pay 100 sovs. towards the police regulations.

Dolly Varden took a slight lead at starting, and, with a great ruck of horses laid up, made running at a moderate pace for about half a mile; it was then taken up by Woodlark, followed by Docility, Dolly Varden, Cla rissa, Grace, Sister to Arkwright, and several others; Lady Superior, who was last up the hill, joined the body of horses at the turn, and, atter crossing the road, went towards the leading horses, in company with Sister to Arkwright; at the distance they were in front, and in a few strides had the race all to themselves. The finish may be described in a few words. Lady Superior went on with the lead, and at the stand looked like win ning; she was caught, however, forty yards from the chair, and defeated in the final struggle by a length. Woodlark was beaten two lengths from Lady Superior, Eva was fourtb, and Grace firth. Run in 2 min. 56 sec. Imperatrix, who was lying behind Clarissa, was driven against Emma Donna at the turn, and lost her 'dace; Emma Donna fell, fortunately without injury to herself or her rider.

A general meeting of the " Committee for promoting the establishment of Baths and Washhouses for the La bowing Classes," and the subscribers and their friends, was held yesterday, at the Lyndon Tavern, Bishops gate-street, to receive reports from the committee of works and the finance committee, and for general business. Mr. JONES LOYD said he regretted that the Bishop of London, who was most anxious to have presided on that occasion, was prevented from doing so, in consequence of a sudden and severe attack of influenza. Iu the absence of the Right Reverend Prelate, the cause of which was, he was sure, lamented by every individual present—(Hear) —he begged to propose that one of the most distin guished and zealous supporters of the baths and wash houses movement, Sir 11. Dukinfleld, be called to the chair. The motion having been agreed to with acclamation, Sir H. DUKINFIELD roturnad thanks to those present for electing him to the honourable position of their chairman, and expressed his regret that the Bishop of London was unable to preside. Ile (the chairman) avowed himself an ardent supporter of the Labouring Classes' Baths and Washhouses Institution, believing it to be capable of promoting, in a great degree, health and morality. The Bishop of London had received from the Bishop of Durham a letter which he was authorised to read, and which was as follows: " Upper Portland-place. May 23. " My dear Lord,—l am invited to visit the model es tablishment and to attend a meeting under your aus pices, o❑ Friday, of the baths and wastihothes. - "I have not time ttor the first nor strength for the second, but I warmly approve of the objects of the meeting; and I beg you to convey the enclosed (10 guinea*) in furtherance of them. I believe it is my third donation at least, but no doubt the treasurer can settle that point. " Yours,.my dear Lord, most truly, the last meeting "The Lord Bishop—(Applttuse.) of London." report"E.

" The gross expenditure on the works, including the purchase of the site, &e., has been 26 632/. ss. 2tl.

The sum rt quiretl to complete the %mks in Goulston-square is ebt mated at 2,0001., which has still to be raibt d by subscription. "Iti the first eighteen months—from July, 1847, to December, 1348—with but a f. .w baths in working order, and with cxpt uses of superintendence which will not he materially increased now that the lull number of baths is open, the receipts were nearly 1,000/. From January 1, to May 19, this year, the receipts have been 3151. 6s. 7d., from 23,332 bathers; but these receipts in the winter months affords but little 01'1 , 2 to..the gross receipts of the year, which yota committee estimgte fitfully 2,004 " The expenses will not exceed 1,2001., leaving 8001. to be applied from this department to the liquidation of the loaf, account. "1n this estimate the receipts from the ws,hers are not h eluded. " The committee have no data at present on which they can form an accurate calculation; but torn the receipts at George•street, they think 4004 may be taken as the sum to be received from washers, making a total income of 2,4001." Th. , CHAIRMAN observed that the total cumber of first and second class bathers in St. Martin's baths for the first four months, beginning on the 24 , h January. 1849. was 51.752, of which 4.323 were females; and the total receipts were 772/. Bs. 10d. After sumo observations from Mr. W.

It was then moved by Mr. NVECUELIN, and seconded by Mr. LANCASTER, " That the meeting strenuously re commend that the utmost efEirts be made ty the friends of the institution to raise an additional subscription of 2,000/., in orch r that the plans of the committee may be fully carried out with all possible speed."

THE DYING GIRL. (Pom the Christian Life. By Montgomery.) kulacribed to Philip Rose, Esq., the founder of the Hospital for Consumption.) k --(er sun is gone down while it was yet day."—Jer. ay. 9. " CONSUMPTION. " A beauty clothes her hectic cheek, A radiance fills that sunken eye, But when her mellow'd accents speak They make the sadden'd hearer sigh; For softer sink they in their cadence far 44 41 autumn's dying tone beneath some mournful star. " They bore her to that healthful isle Whose rocks of t errace d ver d ure rise And catch the morn's celestial smile, A "Re9onsive to th e gree ti ng s ki e s ; IV -11 ` 1 prophesied, th e island bresze Quid freshen her white cheek, and waft away disease. But there she sicken'd, day by day, In shrinking paleness, like a flower, Yet from her glance there shined a ray . Of almost supernat'ral power ; Tha t such clear brightness did her eyeballs roll, eat through them fancy saw the lustre of the soul. " F or mother too, and far-off home, Fier plaintive heart in secret cried, And backward long'd her soul to roam, . Si nce in th e c h urc hyard, side by side, B" Al uer the green tur f w h ere l ove d s i s t ers l a y, K _ w ould her d us t m i g h t wa it th e awf u l Judgment-day. " And they behold her once again Q In her own rocm, w i th p l ac id b row; o pale, you see each azure vein OfYMeander through her beauty now: e ts like a pu l se of rosy light at even, 14 to her faded cheek a crimson flush is given. 4, Seldom she sighs, but veils within Much that would grieve fond Lore to know, And when some pensive tears begin S afe She tries to c h ec k t h e i r over fl ow; No r in th e arms of Jesu rests her soul, mor does the early grave with gloom the mind control. " Not for herself, but for the heart Of love parental she could weep; And often in her dreams will start, And snake some watching gazer weep, A AS faintly through her lips there steals a word,— "nd Ohl my mother dear!' is like low music heard. " She dies,—as beauty ever dies When sad consumption finds a tomb; With brilliance in her deep-bet eyes , And on her face a healtbless bloom;-- ....No ha rs h transition, but a soft decay, Like dream -born tones of night, that melt by dawn away. "And now the dying scenes advance Nearer and nearer to the goal, For death gleams in that deeppn'd glance Betray the egress of the soul; Solemn she is, but no complaini ng sigh Breaks from a burden'd heart, to think her youth must die. . "They wheel her round each garden-walk Where oft her lisping childhood play'd, And loved to hear the old nurse talk, Azad soothe her when she seem'd afraid, While danced her ringlets as she prattled on, More playful than the birds she loved to gaza upon. "She looks as they alone who feel The list of earth before them lies, While o'er them soften'd mem'ries steal , Which melt th e h eart i nto t h e eyes,— "r, tree and turret, woods and uplands, all Back to the dying girl her childish past recall ! " bream like the hush of twilight floats Veiling the lilac bowers around; While in the air melodious notes ~., Of soft d e j ect i on sweet l y soun d . e landscape, like a conscious mourner, seems 4 0 lie in brooding shade, and sadden as it dreams. N ew, to her chamber back ref urn'd, Before the casement calm reclined, Just as the broad horizon burn'd With the la s t bl us h d ay l e f t behind— z•ader eYe was center'd on the dying sun, ing like f ee bl e youth, before life's course is rua. " liusla'd is the breezeless air, and deep The awe around each mourner stealing; Bend o'er her form, but do not weep,— Leath is too grand for outward feeling! t,048 sinks the sun beneath yon golden sea, ebbs her spirit back to God's eternity."

The band and chorus were as usual admirable, and the oratorio was never perhaps more finely rendered. The principal vocalists were— Mis Birch, Mr. Machin, Mr. Lockey, Mr. Phillips, and Millie. de Treffz, the latter of whom gained fresh laurels by her execution of the music alloted to her in the third part. LAUNCH OF AN IRON STEAM•SIIIP.—Yesterday morning a large concourse of people assembled to wit ness the launch of a tine steam-boat from the building yard of Messrs. Brownlow, Pearson, and Co., Welling ton-street. About seven o'clock, a band of music on board struck up a lively tune, and immediately atter the vessel glided majestically into the river, amid the plaudits of the numerous assemblage. The flag, bearing the name "Prince," was hoisted as soon as she touched the water. This steamer, which is intended for the conti nental and Hull trade, is 340 tons register, and combines the essentials of a smart appearance with a roomy set of holds for the stowage of goods; and we may venture to predict that she will be one of the fastest of the Hull paddle steamers.

SIR CHARLES NAFIER.—A letter brought by the French boat from Alexandria, dated Suez, May 8, written by an officer on board the Haddington, says :—" At six A.M. of the 25th of April, in lat. 9 53 N., and lon. 64 35 E., we spoke the Peninsular and Oriental steamer Ben tinck, with Sir Charles Napier and staff on board, en route for Calcutta. All well on board." • CHRIST'S HOSPITAL.—A court is to be holden in Christ's Hospital on Friday, the Ist of June, at twelve o'clock, to receive the resignation of the Worshipful Richard Rothem Pigeon, Esq., treasurer of the hospital, and to receive a report from the Committee of Almoners relative to the duties of the office of treasurer. The consecration of the Bishop of Victoria and the Bishop of liupert'a Land is to take place at Can terbury on Whit-Tuesday, at half-past ten o'clock. The tenant•farmers of South Notts, who were permitted to eject Lord Lincoln from the representation of that division, and return in his place Mr. Ilildyard, are by no means disposed to part with their political power; and the late election, peaceable though it was, has convinced the great landlords that nomination in counties will not be much longer tolerated. Mr. Brom ley was returned only by a compromise between the landlords and their tenants. Mr. Burrell, it is said, was the notnir,ee, and Mr. W. 11. Barrow' the farmers' can didate. Etch party preferred peace to strife; but the battle will come tv,on. Game-laws, tithes, a church which costs six millions a year, and tenant-right, will soon be struggled for; and it requires not much judgment to perceive that the party of the people will ultimately in each case be the victors, especially when they are aided by a large exteniion of the suffrage and the ballot, which the conduct of his Grace of Newcastle and Lurd Exeter has rendered inevitable. —Lincoln Merovy. — American Pape r . ma f r . two y ears, ?" and you A lIINT TO FORGETFU L S UBSCRIBERS.— " Father, what does the printer live on ?" y,child Be causeNtcyi u r said ,tk Ge At e o t riimohpla u N . r- Suppose a f e l low who hasdri p ai d .Ant L nothing ' n her'n; or is his n i s h er t hi ngs his'n, or is n his n, an d h er ' n her ' n? roarri,'s a gal who ha, is A nice question to decide • permits A. law.amocg the Arabs a.naari to divorce Any 0 bis VIV who - do not mike him good bread, Othat.

Covers were laid for 170. After the cloth had been removed, The LORD MAYOR proposed, in succession, the health of her Majesty, of Prince Albert, the Prince of Wales, the Queen Dowager, and the other branches of the Royal Family. Then followed the toast of " The Army and Navy," for which Sir Wm. BURNETT, physician to The navy, re turned thanks. The LORD MAYOR then rose to propose " The health of her Majesty's Judges." N . o marl hada better oppor tunity of seeing the manner in which judges discharged their duty than the magistrates of the city of London, being associated with them in the discharge of important public duties in the principal criminal court of the me tropolis. He was happy to see so many of the judges present, but at the same time he regretted that they had been deprived, through illness, of the presence of one of the most illustrious ornaments of the bench, and who was at one time closely connected with the city of Lon don—he meant Lord Chief Justice Denman.—(Hear, hear.) lie begged the meeting to couple with the toast of the judges the name of a nobleman with whom, as citizens, they had Lot much intercourse, but whose ability and integrity were well known. He begged to propose " Lord Langdale and the Judges."—(Cheers.) Lord LANGDALE shortly returned thanks. The LORD MAYOR then rose to propose the health of a distinguished Nobleman, for whom he, and he believed every one present, entertained the highest respect. In proposing his health he knew not where to begin, where to stop, or what theme to touch on; for he did not know how he could do adequate justice to the toast of Lord Brougham.—(Cheers.) Ile might venture to glance at his early career, when be was considered ono of the most able, the most zealous, and the most successful of Eng lish advocates. It he ventured to speak of his public services, it would be only to prove the active part he hail taken in every measure which came before the country. Lord Brougham handled everything he touched in the most masterly manner, so that it wai scarcely possible to understand how he made himself ac quainted with the details of the various subjects. Ise could assure the meeting that it was with the utmost gratification he lad the honour of receiving his Lord ship at the Mansion-house, and he was very gl a d h e had this opportunity to propose his health.—(Cheers.) Lord B RO UGHAM thanked the meeting very heartily for the mariner in which they had received his health. He was delighted to have had this opportunity of enjoy ing the hospitality of his Lordship, because he . had the o h i o b n e t i cu honour—which w m .h s l e l , h t. a h c e i t w iz a e s n doffs London;peised t o p i a g e h e a a n b d o v d e is a t l i l n ot others—of in h an olding i l f d anythinging the situation t ui t o d n add i a t o thez citizen o fLondon, gratification ite enjoyed wast he recollection that it was conferred upon him at the same time that it was conferred upon his Learned and Noble Friend the Lord Chief Justice of England; that it vas at the same time cealls reed upon them both in considera tion of their having fearlessly—a ith what ability he said not—but in having fearlesaiy, manfully, and successfully —God be praised for it—discharged their dury towards a persecuted client, who was attempted to be run down sod sacrificed to a corrupt and profligate Court.—(Cheers.) lie used Ibis language advisedly, and not for the firm. time. He had never swerved from it. He had never re sponded to the mention of his name either in this place, or in any Guildhall or at any city meeting nor had the Lord Chief J ustice ever answered to his name without Lis making the same avowal—without both of them making the some avowal—that they gloried in the recollection that they were Hut only invested with that high honour, but that they maintained it at a time which orthinagnsdincor en corruption. age w was far from favourable t o th e exerc i se o f suc h a v i rtue against profligacy ion lien publicliekn virewtthuae was th a e s a low eb was at spea : lii b 'g , and whew courtiership was much moreipre velem that!' patriotism.—(Hear, hear.) Still he did not think it was his duty to conceal these sentiments at any time, and least of all in the city of London, which had been the cradle of the liberties—civil and religious— of England—the cradle in which, in the glorious revolu tion of 1688, liberty was rocked and nursed ; and there fore it was that he gloried in belon g i ng to the city of London, and he gloried in th e recollect i on o f t h at de wfence which t w h ' e la . began, oon o d r o a n. at least A n consolidated, perhaps, city s dated, 1i s allow him to add—what, howeve r , was o f l essconseque nce —in meeting here so many m em b ers of the l earne d p ro . fession of which he bad so lon g b een a mem b er, an d f o r th co e n y n would all the members of which —f rom t h e hi g h est to the lowest—he entertained the highest respect—it so hap ned that there was no member of that learned bench before whom he had ever pleaded as an advocate ; and indeed he would rather meet them anywhere than in a court of law ; and he was doubly happy to meet them under the hospitable roof of the Mansion-house. And now the meeting would . allow him to propO s e a testimony of respect and affection to the chief magistrate, by drinking to the health of the Lord Mayor and Lady Mayoress,—(llcar.) The LORD-MAYOR returned thanks, and then pro posed the health of " The Attorney-General, and the Bar of England." The ATTORNEY GENERAL returned thanks, and said the approbati, n of the citizens of this great metropolis was a great stimulus to the members of the bar to dis charge their duties with integrity and independence. The LORD MAYOR then proposed " The health of the Wood, whose Members of the H o u se o f C ommons ," a nd laf gged to couple with it the n ame o f M r. P age father had loag been an act i ve an d a zea lous alderman 01 the city of London.--(Cheers.) Mr. PAGE WOOD r e t urne d t h an k s , and said among the many advantages h e h a d d er i ve d from his excellent father, this was not the l e ast, th a t it bad procured for him the honour of having his name associated with the Members of the House of Commons. He was satisfied that whatever differences of opinion there might exist in that House, the Members were all actuated,by a sincere desire to benefit.their country.—(a ear . bear.) The LORD AlAyon. then proposed "The Health of Mr. Samuel Gurney, and Prosperity to the Trade and Com merce of the City of London." Mr. GURNEY shortly returned thanks. The LORD MAYOR then proposed " Alderman Thomp son, and the Court of Aldermen." Alderman TuomrsoN replied ; after - which the Lord Mayor and his friends left the table, and the company separated.

A man named John Pugh. belonging to the sect of Latter-day Saints, was seriously burned at the late colliery explosion at Aberdare. His brother Saints refused to permit any medical man to come near him, and he died in consequence. An inquest was held, at which two of " the Saints" were:examined; they gave the following evidence (we copy from the report which appears in the Principality):— James Jones (Jim Pontypool) was next called, who stated that he was a Saint, and according to their creed no one should send for a doctor, but rely on the ordinances of their church for cures in all cases , and had it not been for the weakness of John Pugh's faith he would have been cured immediately. Having made several other absurd and most contradictory statements, several of the jurors said they could not believe him on his oath. With this the Deputy-Coroner quite agreed, and he was dismissed without being sworn. William Sims was next called, who also stated that he was a Saint and an elder in the Church of Christ. On the day John Pugh met with the accident he was sent for. He went and anointed him with oil, and ad ministered the ordinances of the Church of Christ. He was perfectly sure had John Pugh's faith been good he would have cured him that instant. He tried him again several times, but the deceased's faith was too weak each time. He knew that Dr. Evans had offered his service to attend the deceased, but that John Pugh wished to try the ordinances of the Church of Christ, and if that failed then he would have a medical man. Though I failed to cure him I did not advise the propriety of having a doctor. It is my duty as an elder to exhort our people to trust to the ordinances of the Church for cures in all cases, and not to medical men. Still we would not ex clude any one from having a doctor. He knew that the deceased was delirious for several days before he died, stlil he took no steps to have a proper medical man to see him. Ido most solemnly declare that if all the flesh was burnt off my hand this moment that my blessing would cure it in an instant. I have cured myself many times. I have cured my wife frequently, and I have per formed instantaneous cures on my children by my bles sing only, and had John Pugh's faith been good I would have cared him like putting one hand in the other. The jury returned the following verdict:—" We find that the deceased John Pugh died from the effects of an accident caused by an explosion of fire-damp at Werfa Colliery, May Bth, and the culpable neglect of his attendants, who were members of a certain society called the Latter-day Saints, in refusing to permit a me. dical gentleman to attend to his case. The jurors beg in the strongest language to censure the conduct of these deluded people, and caution them not to repeat their foolish practices in future." The verdict was read in open court by the Deputy- Coroner, who advised the Saints, and said that the jury had been exceedingly lenient, and that the verdict was a very merciful one. He fully expected to have had to commit several of them for manslaughter, but as it was they had a most narrow escape this time, and he trusted that the serious caution of the jury would have due weight with them. Had they not put the fault upon the poor man now dead, nothing could have prevented them from being sent to another tribunal. The proceedings lasted for nine hours. DREADFUL ACCIDENT AT LANT- WIT VA RDRE COLLIERY. SEVEN LIVES LOST. Last week we gave particulsra of a fatal accident at the Werra Coniery, by means of which two of our fel low-creatures vv, re brought to an untimely grave. No sooner had the intelligence appeared in our columns, than another fearful and more distressing accident oc• caned at Lantwit Vardre colliery, near Treforest, be longing to Thos. Powell, Esq., the extensive colliery proprietor, when five men were killed on the spot, and others dreadfully injured. It appears that there are two pits at the colliery, worked by the same mac hi ner y, so t h a t th e we i g ht d e • scending into one pit ena bl es t h e eng i neer t o ra i se th e weight in the other with comparative ease. On Friday eight the chain belonging to one of the pits was broken, which led to the temporary suspension of the works. There was left, therefure, but one pit in working order, and the weight of materials ascending or descending it must have been, consequently, borne by the engine itself'. About one o'clock on Saturday morning the foreman made application to the engineer to let him down the pit, but was refused, the engineer very properly wishing to ascertain by daylight whether or not not any injury had been done to the machinery by the accident of the pre vious night. About four, having first of all examined the engine and found everything safe, he let three men down the pit, who reached the bottom in safety. About seven o'clock, John Jones, a contractor or underground steward, came to the engineer, accompanied by three or four other men, and requested to be 14 t down also. The engineer, we were given to understand, remonstrated with him, he being anxious to test the machinery by some dead weight; but it was to no purpose. The engineer then set the engine in order, and when the carriage was descend ing the pit, he perceived that a considerable number of men had entered it. They had not descended more than seven or ten yards More the engineer heard a crack or a jerk in the machinery. He instantly stopped the engine, examined it, and found it out of " gear." The unfortu nate though reckless men in the pit, by this time per ceiving their dangerous position, cried out, and called on the engineer to raise them. He attempted, and while doing so the engine lost all power over the fly-wheel, and the natural consequence was, that the poor fellows were precipitated to the bottom of the pit, nearly one hundred yards deep. The heavy chain a hich suspended the carriage then telt with great force on them. Every effort was then made to assist the sufferers, and it was not until one o'clock that all the bodies were taken out. Medical aid was immediately sent for, and every attention was paid to the injured. It is rather remarkable that the only man whose injuries were comparatively light was a stranger, who had gone with the men to see the pit.-7 he Principality. ANECDOTE OF THE LATE ADMIRAL SIR NESBIT WILLOUGHBY.—He was the greatest " dare-devil " of his day. On one occasion he had been sent from his ship in commend of the boats to board an enemy's pri vateer. The privateer proved to be well manned and armed, and the boats suffered a good deal in pulling up to her. Willoughby was encouraging his men in every possible way ,by word and deed. W hen his boat nt ared the privateer she was prepared to resist them; • when Lieutenant Willoughby, taking off his hat, flung it over the quarter on the deck of the vessel, exclaiming, "A gallon of rum to the fellow who gives it me back." Willoughby was the first to board himself, but it is un derstood that three or four fellows claimed the grog, which was divided amongst them. The privateer was taken, but with considerable loss, as her crew far out numbered the people in the boats. LINNJEAN SOClETY.—Thursday the annual 'general meeting of this society, which was establisf ed in 1788, was held in the house of the institution, Soho-square; the Bishop of Ipswich in the chair. The usual routine business having been disposed of, the Secretary read the report, from which it appeared that during the past year many valuable presents had been madetothe osfoeiety, both in the shape of books and rare specimens natu ral history.

It has lately been w hispered by certain influential parties here about, that it is not at all improbable that his Royal Highness Prince Albert will, in the course of the autumn, honour Sir Charles Lyell, the eminent geologist, with a visit to Kennordy douse. Should this report turn out to be true, the inhabitants both of Forfar and li,rrie muir will in all likelihood have the gratification of be holding their Queen; as, in the event of the Prince ocming this way, there is every probability that he will be accurapwiect by her Majesty.--Perthshire Advertiscr.

She was imme diately raised up and carried into the nearest surgeon's, where it was ascertained that she had received very ex tensive internal injuries. She was subsequently removed to Guy's Hospital, where she expired shortly after her admission. Information was forwarded on Thursday to Mr. W. Payne, the Coroner, who will hold an inquest on the deceased. Another accident happened to a boy named George Reed, aged thirteen years, of Kensing ton-place, Westminster. The unfortunate lad was on his way home from work, and whilst passing the car riageway near the Victoria Theatre he ran between the legs of a gentleman's horse which was returning at a fast rate from Epsom, and before the rider could stop the animal the boy was dreadfully injured about the lace and chest, by being trampled upon. He was seen by a surgeon, and afterwards removed to the same hospital. twenty-nine ifuisnea, si accident noccaut rrroverdtipdeHnceen_pryiaciei:ilDkionesk, bead,aged Bermondsey.
