This Hospital, founded in the year 1828, the first to establish the principle of free admission to the sick poor, without the delay and difficulty of Governors' orders, is wholly dependent for support on voluntary contributions and legacies. It affords relief to a large number of in-patients, and, in addition to this, the average number of attendance of the destitute sick has for a considerable period averaged be tween 3,000 and 4,000 weekly. The Committee earnestly solicit the assistance of the benevolent, as the promises of this hospital are capable of containing several hundred more beds had the Committee the requisite fonds to maintain them.

The last four subjects, although counting in the compe tition, will not be considered obligatory. The candidates who may be selected will be treated, while attached to the School, in all respects as the Admi ralty pupils ; they will receive wages the same as dock yard apprentices, commencing at ls. 6d. per day for six days per week for first year, and increasing yearly 3d. per day till it reaches 2s. per day ; and in addition a subsist ence allowance of 3s. per day for seven days per weak while away from their homes, either at the Szhool or in the dockyards. Seven months of each year—viz., from October till May —will be devoted to study at the School, and the remaining five months to actual work and the acquirement of practi cal knowledge in the dockyards. It is to be understood that the Admiralty make no en gagements to employ these pupils after the completion of their course of study; and they must rely on their own worth as educated naval architects for obtaining employ ment in their subsequent career. The number of such pupils to be selected this year is one shipwright and one engineer. Persons desirous of competing must forward their names, with a certificate of birth, and of the grounds on which they consider themselves practically qualified, enclosing proper certificates to that effect, to the Secretary of the Admiralty, not later than the Ist September. The candidates should also state whether they wish to be examined as engineers or shipwrights. The examination will take place on the 28th September and three following days.

ABERGELE, Saturday. The fact that a witness has come forward to cor roborate in some of its main particulars the extra ordinary narrative of Mrs. Dicken has very con siderably increased the interest in this inquiry. A respectable and intelligent-looking young girl, named Sarah Haughton, states positively that she saw Mrs. Dicken " pleading" to persons to come out of carriages in the fore part of the train, after the explosion had happened and while the flames were raging. Sarah Ilaughton says she was on the top of the embankment on the left side of the line, while Mrs. Dicken was on the sea-side, to the right of the down train. It is admitted that the wind was blowing from the sea and towards the embank ment, so that it carried the flames that way ; but the girl says she could see across the train, as she was standing towards the centre of the train, and at a point beyond that to which the fire then ex tended. Mr. Eyton, the Coroner's Assessor, with perhaps too much precipitancy, gave it as his opi nion that Sarah Haughton's evidence was " worth less." She may be, and probably is, mistaken ; but there has been other evidence, still stronger, in the same direction, and it will be more satisfactory to the relatives of the victims of the accident and to the public to have it shown by evidence that Mrs. Dicken and Sarah Haughton are in error than to have their evidence disposed of by an opinion of its value formed by the Coroner's Assessor before the close of the inquiry. It is desirable that any pas senger who may have sat on the side of the mail train next the sea, and who may have seen the pro gress of the flames on that side immediately after the collision, should be here on Tuesday. The e - videnc! of Sara, th 3 guard of the goods train, was listened to with the most anxious attention. As will be seen by the report of the proceedings ; his examination by the Assessor had not concluded when the Court adjourned. His testimony, so far, has been given in a clear and apparently straight forward manner. He seemed to remember very closely all the material circumstances connected with the shunting operations on the day in question. Several other servants of the company are also to be produced for examination. somewhere about the points. , i . i'l ~ ', ,_ - ' ' -.- - • • ..••• • ' . e....... ,„,..„„,...^ ....e."--....4‘ e....----" ,-- ../7-•"" '"" ,,,•"••••••••-••••• ,/ ••• - ' 47 " ...'1" . - . t , los. - • ..

She was nearer to Abergele than the engine. She never lost sight of the engine. She was about an hour on the spot. The engine never was enveloped in the flames. The wheels were in the fire, but the body never was in the flames. She was not more than five yards from the edge of the fire. All the fire was nearer to Holyhead than was. The fIIIIIC3 were perhaps morn than half the Height of the room. They were a little higher than the railway hank. She had to remove, the heat was so great. The wind came straight across the line from the sea. The Assessor remarked that he thought the evi dence of this witness worthless, though Mr. Wood did not seem to think so. Mr. Edwards-Wood—l certainly do not, nor do others whd are no mean judges of evidence. When I heard what evidence she could give, I thought it right to produce her in order to corroborate the testimony of Mrs. Dicken. The Assessor had no doubt that Miss Ilaughton was stating what she believed to be the truth. By the, Assessor—Mrs. Dicken was pleading to the people to come out of the burning carriage. The wind blew towards me, and yet I could see Mrs. Dicken at the other side of the train. By Mr. Littler—Mrs. Dicken was standing nearer to the engine than the Post-office van—a little nearer, not much in advance of the van. I was nearer the carriages th tt were not burnt. I could not tell whether it was a first or a second-class carriage Mrs. Dicken was pleading. She was standing, I think, four or five yards distance from the carriages. She was standing between the rails on the sea side. Mr. Edwards Wood inquired whether the Asses sor was a shareholder in the London and North- Western Company. The Assessor said he was not, and he was asto nished at the nut stion. Mr. Goddard protested against the question, as did Mr. Littler and Mr. Galbraith. Mr. Edwards Wood had been desired to ask the question. The Assessor thought Mr. Edwards Wood ought to have exercised a discretion before putting such a question, Evidence was here given in identification of some property belonging to the late Mr. Lovatt Ferrell, of Ellesmere. Evidence was also given tracing Mr. Ferrall to the train at Chester. A licensed porter stated that he had assisted into that train a gentle man whose photograph was produced in court, and which was one of the late Mr. Ferrall. PRICY 4d. STAMPED 53 on the main line. The place was on an incline. I should have thought that the waggons would have gone down the line by their own weight without any backing of the train. I brought the train to a stand on receiving the signal. I was again sent ahead by the signal of Robert Jones; I again got a signal from Jones to stop, and did so. I got.a third signal from Jones to come back into the siding. I don't Lnow prsitiTely, but, to the best of my belief, the person at the siding now was the station-master's s.)n. I was backing then to put some nnre waggons into the siding, and also for the purpose of pushing all the aggons as far they could go iuto the siding, in order to tunke, room to get the rest of the train into the siding, and so h ave the main line clear for the Irish mail. While doing this I saw the waggons I had backed running down, but they had not yet reached the tail of the train, which had been left on the main line. I had not seen any one put a break on. I saw one person running after th m first, Richard Williams, and I afterwards saw Jones run after them. Neither of those men caught the trucks before the latter reached the tail end of the train. I did not see the trucks strike the tail-end of the train. The last time I saw them I should suppose they must have been 30 or 40 yards apart from the tail-end. The three trucks passed round the curve. I could see the tail-end of the train froth the points, and 1 could also see the three truekS which had been " kicked off" the train. I did not see the tail start off, but I saw the two lots of trucks moving—one lot being apart from the other. The lots were, I should say, 30 or 40 yards apart when I last saw them. • I do not know what started the tail first. The descending trucks remained within my sight only a few seconds. The curve took them out of sight. I started to run after the trucks, but was stopped by Richard Williams. I think it was - 20 or 25 minutes past 12 when I ar rived at Llanddulas station, but I did not look at my watch. When I saw the trucks running down it was 12.35 or thereabouts. I believe the Irish Mail is due at Llanddulas station at 12.38. There is no appointed time in the book for it to pass Llanddulas, but it is timed to pass Abergele at 12.34. It is about three and a half miles from Abergele to Llanddulas. -At this stage of the proceedings Mr. Littler ap plied for an adjournment. The Court acceded to the application, and the inquiry was adjourned to an early hour on Tuesday morning, when the evidence of the guard will be resumed. Alfred Sara, driver of the goods train, was then examined by the Assessor—l drove the goods train in question on the 20th inst. I had been in the habit of driving that train for two years. I started from Crewe. I came on to Chester, the first stop ping-place. The time for leaving Chester was 7 a.m. The end of my journey with that train is Bangor. I believe I left Chester at the proper time. I keep no book showing the time I actually start. The breaksman has a book showing the time we actually do keep. The time-table shows the time we actually do keep. There were with me that day Thomas Davis, the fireman, and two breaksmen. I believe Joseph White, senior, and Robert Jones, junior, were the breaksmen who came with me as far as Rhyl. Richard Williams and the said Robert Jones were the breaksmen from Rhyl. I cannot tell the number of waggons I had when we started from Chester ; we picked up some on the road. We had no paraffin that I know of when we started. At St. David's works, Saltley, near Ches ter, we took up two waggons with barrels which I believed to contain oil. Ido not know what kind of oil is manufactured at those works. Those two waggons were placed in the rear of the train, next to the break-van—in front of the break-van. I have charge of the train as to working it ; the breaksmen have to instruct me what to do. At lily' station the train was a long one. It had 47 waggons, some loaded and some empty, when we left Rhyl. We stopped at the Abergele station at from five to six minutes past 12. I cannot say how long we stopped. On the land side of the Abergele station—a little beyond the station—l had to drop some waggons. I had none to take up. I did some shunting there, which occepied from two to three minutes. To the best of my knowledge I left Abergele at eight or ten minutes past twelve. lam not positive, but, to the best of my judgment, we left five or six minutes before our time. The par ticular train I drive is called " the pick-up train." It has to pick up waggons at different stations. We are timed to shunt for the Irish mail at Rayns and Luptons siding. When we have doubts of being able to do it in time there we do it at Abergele sta tion—semetimes even at Rhyl. On Thursday, the 20th, we intended to shunt at Llanddulas, the ordi nary place. We had some waggons to leave there and some to take up. The siding is under the con trol of the station-master at Llanddulas. lie him self is the proper person to work the signals at that station. lie was on duty himself on that day. Sometimes the station-master orders his son to work the signals. To the best of my knowledge it was the station-master himself who worked the signals ou that day. I saw him near the signals. As soon as ever I arrived the signal was put up to " danger" to prevent anything else from coming up. That is the usual course. A portion only of the train was on this occasion shunted into the siding, because there was not room for the whole of it. Had there been room the whole of it would have been shunted into the siding. I could not of my own ac cord have shunted the train into the siding. I take my orders from the breaksman. On that occasion both the breaksmen gave me orders respecting the shunting. The instructions were given to me first of all by signal as I was drawing up. I drew up the engine just at the end of the platform, where the signal is placed. The break van and the two waggons next to it would be further from me than the points of the siding. A breaksman hooked off a portion of the waggons. Richard Williams then gave me the signal. I don't know whether two of the breaksmen or one of them unhooked the wag li - gons. The tail end of the train was taken off. I know they were unhooked, because when I started again I left part of the train behind. I saw nothing about the uncoupling till I got the signal and moved on. I got a signal to go ahead." It was given by the breaksman holding his arm up. I saw the tail of the train which I had left behind at different times within a space of, perhaps, from five to ten minutes. They were on the main line. I cannot swear as to the number of waggons left behind. There were the break-van, the two waggons with the oil, and one or two other loaded waggons. What these 1 waggons were loaded with I do not know. When I had advanced far enough I got a f.-igual to stop—one given with both arms. It was given by Williams. I obeyed it. I then got a signal from Jones to come back. The station-master was holding the points. I stopped clear of the crossing and " fly shunted" 10 or 12 waggons to send them into the siding. To " fly shunt" is to give the waggons to be shunted sufficient impetus to send them into the siding without the engine going after them. lam not sure, but I believe it was Robert Jones detached the waggons. Those 10 or 12 wag- MISCELLANEOUS NEWS. gons formed the rear of the train when the other waggons and the van had been left on the main line. Richard Williams was standing and watching the waggons going into the siding. The waggons and van left on the main line were lef t standing by tlwm- selves. Jones was riding on the buffer of the last truck remaining in the train. When the train came to a stop he jumped down. Richards Williams was Having got the wag- Bons into the siding, I got another signal to come back again. I was on the Conway side of the points. Jones gave the signal. I backed a very few yards, when I stopped again in consequence of another signal from Jones. I saw three loaded waggons parted from the train, and went towards the waggons and van which had been left standing (From the Angelo-American Times.) A primitive three-penny piece of 1652, one of the earliest and rarest coins of New England, has been dug up on a street corner at Salem, Massachusetts. A new manufacturing enterprise at Providence is the Rhode Island Building Block Company. These blocks are to be a substitute for brick and stone for build ing, and are made by incorporating together by an im mense pressure and chemical processes lime and sand into a substance as hard and durable as any stone. The blocks are three times the size of an ordinary brick, and are turned out by the company's machine at the rate of 6,000 per day. By varying the shape of the mould ornamental blocks of the most elaborate pattern can be produced. Professor F. H. Newhall, of Middleton, the for mer pastor of the Pynchon-street church, who has been absent a year in Europe, has returned to Springfield, Massachusetts, very much improved in health. Professor W. N. Rico, who has been his companion in travel, will return about the middle of September, and at once enter upon duties connected with the chair of natural history at the Wesleyan University. Mr. Rice spent the winter at Berlin, and at tended the lectures at the university there; and both pro fessors have been diligent in collecting curiosities and a fund of information concerning the old world as it is, and as it was. The correspondent of the Standard says—" A great haul of thieves, or supposed thieves, has been made in Toronto. Detectives have arrested AI. C. Moore and his wife, D. Thompson and his wife, J. A. Morton and his wife, Mrs. Sturges, and two or three other per sons. They aro charged with the heavy raltbery of the Merchants' Union Express Company, on the Hudson River Railway, in New York, in May. One of them is an actor, another proprietor of an hotel, a third a schoolmaster. The Adams's Express Company has been robbed in Chi cago of $7,000. The intending thieves hired a room and put up a card. After occupying the room two days they received by express a package, purporting to contain a small sum of money. While the messenger was in the act of delivering this package he was seized by the throat; chloroform was placed under his nose; he was beaten with an iron bar, and was finally robbed of all the money in his possession." General Harney was about to leave St. Louis and the Upper Mississippi, and to complete arrangements for removing the savages to the Northern reservations The following despatch to the Democrat is dated St. Louis, August 14 :—" Solomon City, Kansas.—Capt. Moody has just arrived here, and reports that on Wednesday a band of Sioux, Cheyenne, and Arapahoe Indians attacked the settle ment on Solomon River, fifty-miles north of here, killing David Deaugardis and B. B. Bell, and mortally wounding Mrs. Bell. The Indians also ravished two women on Plum Creek, and carried off two little girls belonging to Mr. A. A. Bell, living on Mulberry Creek. They also killed a German and wounded a boy ou Brown Creek. There i ; a largo number of persons missing from the vici i nity of Brown Creek. All the stock has been run off, and the country is stripped of provisions." The changes in a country's climate by settlemeht and cultivation of the soil often seem strange and incon sistent. A letter from a late traveller in Nebraska notes some curious contrasts: "It is a frequent subject of re mark iu the Ohio Valley, that settling the country, clear ing and ditching the land constantly makes it dryer ; that old wells and springs am drying up, and each suc ceeding summer branches run dry which never did be- I fore. The "French Agricultural Report" makes the same complaint, and calls upon the Government to stop the destruction of the forests, as the means of preserving the rivers. But here, with settle ment, exactly the reverse phenomena are presented, and the quantity of rain in Western Nebraska and Kansas has I doubled within the memory of man. Perhaps this is due I somewhat to the trees planted on new farms, but I think, I also, that breaking up the sod allows it to absorb more moisture than it could in the prairie state, and in many last tnces turning a hundred acres of sod will renew an ed spring. French branches are starting in gullies which have been dry for hundreds, perhaps thousands, of years. Thus, springs break out in the thirsty wilderness, and streams of water iu the dry ground!' Here is an important principle at work, which will enable agriculture to mak ) great ad vances on what is now the American desert." Akin to these are the facts of heavy rains this summer in Colorado and California States where the rule of dry summers seems to have been invariable heretofore. The New York papers report that Mr. P. T. Barnum ran a foot race on the 14th last., at the Profile House, New Hampshire. He had several competitors, but distanced them all, after which he was borne from the field on the shoulders of the crowd. Several thousand spectators witnessed the race. News from Constantinople states that Admiral Farragut was to receive the visit of the Turkish Minis ters and of the diplomatic body on board his flagship the Franklin last Wednesday. On Fr:day the Sultan was ex pected to pay a visit to the American admiral on board the Franklin. Musurus Pacha, the Turkish Ambassador at the Court of St. James, arrived yesterday from London on leave of absence. Three students of Eastman College—l. P. Hind man, R. 11. Gregory, and E. H. Waller, of Florida— swam a match across the Hudson at Poughkeepsie on the 10th inst. Hindman won the race, crossing in 25 minutes. Gregory was second. The danger of the attempt was considerable, and the authorities should interfere to pre vent a recurrence of foolhardy experiments. Pugilism, under the smiles of the fair sex, is fast attaining to the dignity of a "profession." When poor Adah Menkon claimed to be the wite of John C. Heenan, a connection repudiated by the prize-fighter, she felt the humiliation the more bitterly from the world's estimate of the man's status. The. Spirit, in discussing tho subject, sAys that Heenan is now married "to ono of the most re fined, intelligent, and beautiful ladies who ever graced the American stage." Mike M'Coole seems to have drawn as good a prize in the matrimonial lottery. Mike paraded himself before the windows of a convent, and by his "elegant" appearance captivated Miss Mary Norton, the daughter of a wealthy contractor, to whom he has just been married in St: Louis. The event gives scope to the correspondents, and occupies much space in the local papers. We believe Mikis is under an engagement to fight, and the young lady's advice about fulfilling it was, "If there is honour to gain, then fight ; if for money, then decline." _ r‘C) SPIRIT OF TUB PUBLIC JOURNALS. The Times says that Mr. Hunt's reply to Mr. Gladstone consists mainly of what lawyers call " confession and avoidance." The charge that the present Ministry have increased the optional expenditure of the country by about three millions in two years is acknowledged, but it is said in defence that the additional outlay has been com pelled by reasons of policy, every one of which must be admitted to be sound on examination. Mr. Hunt accord ingly gives in detail the items which make up the greater part of the three millions to he accounted for. The apology of the Chancellor of the Exchequer does not meet the whole of the charges. The late Ministry left the present Ministry a legacy of decreasing expenditure. We say this although perfectly conscious that engage ments had been entered into by Lord Russell's Govern ment which would create fresh demands on the Exchequer. -This plea, which has been pushed to an excess, can always be brought forwar3. No Government ever existed which had not made some preparations in advance requiring new expenditure, but an economical Government provides the money for new expenses by cutting off or reducing expenditure elsewhere. This is what was done in the conduct of affairs by the late Ministry. The policy inaugurated by the late. Government has not been continued by the present. It has launched out in all directions, and retrenched in none. Half-a-million spent in the dock yards may have some influence on that wavering body of electors, very limited in number, who determine by the way they give their votes whether Devonport shall be represented by two Liberals or two Conservatives. It may change the politics of the member for Chatham, and have some influence at Ports mouth ; but proof is altogether wanting that it has in any way increased the efficiency of the navy. Protests have been constantly recorded against the inflated expenditure proposed - by the Government, and when the nation is called upon to decide to what Administration it will give its confidence, the question of the relative esti mates of the two great parties properly becomes an element in the decision. And as such and such alone we commend it to the consideration of the constituencies. The Post compares the apology of Mr. Ward Hunt to the hero of one of M. Edmond AbQut's novels, who was accustomed, in the accounts he rendered to his highly virtuous father, to put down all the more doubtful items Of his rackety expenditure as perks ate whist. So the Con servatives, when asked how it is that they exceed their allowance, always reply, "National defences." But this fact stands out, that in a time of peace and in full swing of a policy of non-intervention, the Ministry has increased our fighting expenditure (even as estimated, and if expe rience is a guide will increase it still more when actually incurred) by £1,944,914, which amounts to upwards of eight per cent. Can anybody shew that the " national defences" are eight per cent, better for it? The Post doubts it ; but perhaps the Government will be able to give some startling, and, as yet, unexpected information in the matter. The Herald declares that the masterly letter of the Chancellor of the Exchequer not merely repels the attack upon the financial policy of the Government, but fastens the imputation of waste and extravagance upon Mr. Glad• stone himself. The right honourable gentleman no doubt thought it rather shrewd tactics to supplement his anti- Church programme with a cryagainst Tory extravagance; and the avidity with which Mr. Hugh Childers took up his leader's cue indicated that the charge was to be utilised upon the hustings. The one indispensable condition of a successful move of this kind is that the Government maligned shall be content to remain silent under the imputation. This condition has not been fulfilled in the present instance, and all the calculations are necessarily overthrown. Mr. Ward Hunt has accepted the challenge of his predecessor, has refuted his charges, and made some excessively damaging reflec tions upon his financial policy in 1866. Mr. Gladstone is hoist with his own petard, and the new Liberal cry is exploded ere it is a fortnight old. We shall hear no more of Tory extrava gance. The most inveterate and unscrupulous opponents of the Government will learn from the result of this tourney between the late and the present Chair iellor of the Exchequer that the less said about finance the better. It is a question which the Liberal party are chiefly concerned to keep in the background as much as possible. Mr. Gladstone has burnt his fingers at it, and his friends will certainly be careful not to touch that end of the poker for the future. Says the Daily News, Mr. Ward Hunt's letter altogether fails to justify, or even to excuse, the large increase in the uublic expenditure under Tory rule. It is little more, indeed, than a confession of the exigencies to which a weak overnment is almost necessarily reduced. And from that letter, with the unwelcome facts which produced it, the country will be able to estimate the cost of keeping a weak Tory Ministry in office. During the last three years of his administration Mr. Gladstone reduced the expenditure by three millions, and with, the command he had acquired over the depart ments, bad he remained in power, we may be sure the policy of retrenchment would have been carried still further. By this time the reduction would not improbably have reached five millions, thus bringing the current expenditure down to the sum which, according to Tory critics, is its natural and proper level. The Tory Government, however,, nstead of offe,cting this reduction, which, according to its own advocates, would have been so easy, have increased the public expenditure by three millions. According to the data supplied by themselves, the continuance in office of a weak Tory Government thus costs the country from six to eight millions annually. The sum of the whole account (the Standard remarks; c is, that so far as the civil service expenditure is con cerned, the present Government has not increased it, except in the fulfilment of engagements entered into by the late Government, by more than the augmentation of the votes for the educational department and a grant towards the building of Glasgow University ; that of the other two millions of increase, absorbed by the army and navy, nearly half has gone to give increased pay and greater comforts to our soldiers and sailors, -and the remainder has been spent in ships and guns which were absolutely needed ; whilst the results of the expenditure in these two services are, that the conver sion of small arms is nearly.completed, that our forts aro armed, that the navy has been brought into a much greater condition of efficiency, and that service in the army has been rendered so much more attractive, that twenty-six thousand veteran troops have re-engaged them selves. Not only has the country got good money's worth for its increased outlay, but any postponement of the ad. ditional expenditure would have made the burden far score onerous when at last undertaken. No one, the Telegraph observes, blames the Government Col- converting our Enfield rifles, or for improving the pay of the private soldier ; the accusation is that it did not do these things without adding to the total expenditure of the country. Mr. Hunt must be reminded that changes ‘ll. our national armaments, involving heavy cost, have not been peculiar to' the time during which he has held ,office. Such causes of excessive eutlay have been con tinuous for the last dozen years ; they were of con stant occurrence between 1862 and 1866. Yet they were met by a Liberal Ministry which did not halt in the work of retrenchment. Here, then, is the whole difference between the two systems of adminstration. If Mr. Gladstone had held office as Chancellor of the Exchequer during the last two years, our rifles would have been converted and the pay of the army would have been increased ; but the work would have been accomplished step by step, simultaneously with the enforcement of judicious economies, which would have left the gross national expenditure no heavier than before. The Government or the Minister, no matter of what party, that does not make fresh expenditure conditional on a previous retrenchment will forfeit the splendid oppor tunities of the time, and will fail to gain the confidence of the people. The Standard, commenting on the evidence being given at the Abergele accident, draws attention to its unsatis factory nature with regard to the points whether the doors of the railway carriages were locked, and how quickly the fire spread. What can be said to the evidence of William Roberts, a mason, who states that he ran a quarter of a mile before he reached the train, and when he reached the spot " the carriage next to the Post-office van was just catching fire ?" There is also the statement of the driver who leaped from the engine of the mail train. This state. ment is not yet a piece of sworn evidence, but it is righ 4 to refer to it for what it is worth. One version of this statement makes the driver say that, on recovering his footing after leaping from the engine, he gave a car riage key to a tall gentleman whom he never saw again. That gentleman, he says, was standing on the steps of a carriage, which almost immediately afterwards was seized by the flames. There is also the extraordinary evidence of the platelayer's wife, Mrs. Dicken, supported as it is by the evidence of a young lady, Miss Houghton. Incredible as the statements of these two witnesses may appear, they are not to be dismissed without consideration. If mar vellous, the allegations are at least coherent ; nor can we finally decide that Miss Houghton's evidence is worthless, merely because, in the opinion of the Assessor, she was standing where she could not have seen Mrs. Dicken, as she says she did. Mere fiat contradiction from the company's solicitor is of little avail until testimony is produced to refute what is thus alleged. On the question of locked doors Lord Castlerosse has publicly declared, "I have sufficient ground for knowing that some of the London carriages were locked on both sides." As for the Chester carriages, the statement of the engine -driver—though not yet given in legal form—indicates that some of these carriages were locked on the platform side, and theref9r9 very P9§.§PllY Q glc z,,/ L L_,s‘ n 7inies.

THE INQUEST. The inquiry is conducted by Dr. Evan Pierce, Coroner; with Mr. Eyton, of Flint, as his Asses sor. Mr. Littler, of the Northern Circuit, appears for the London and North-Western Company; Mr. Goddard, solicitor, of Dublin, appears for the rela tives of the late Lord and Lady Farnham and of Mr. and Mrs. Aylmer ; Mr. David Galbraith, of Dublin, is watching the proceedings for the family of the late Sir N. Chinnery ; Mr. Edwards-Wood, solicitor, of Birmingham, is present on behalf of the relatives of the late Captain Priestly Edwards and of the relatives of other deceased persons. After the despatch of our parcel yesterday, Sarah Anne Ilaughton was examined, and said she lived at Milton-cottage. On the 20th instant she was staying near Llanddulas. She saw the mail train coming in the direction of where she was. She saw smoke and flames, and ran to the palings on the embankment of the line. She did not see what caused the accident. She saw the carriages on fire. She ran when when she heard the crash, and having got over a wall saw the flames. By Mr. Edwards-Wood--When she reached the palings she had to look down on the line. She saw the engine on its side and the tender across the line. The first carriage was on fire, the second was not ; but within less than a minute it had taken fire. She saw the passengers and Mrs. Dicken on the side of the line next the sea. Mrs. Dicken was lifting her hand, pleading to the people to come out of the carriages. She was then on the line next the sea. Mrs. Dicken was addressing people in the carriage next to the one on fire. It was before that Mrs. Dicken was lifting up her hand. By Mr. Littler—Witness was standing on a paling above the side of the cutting when she eaw Mrs. Dicken doing this. She was about a dozen yards from the engine. The carriages were opposite to witness. The smoke was being driven straight from the clirectiou of the traing. to the fields over 4 ._ ,//, . , '- I 1
