Had we done so, as I suggested, dining the Ruesian war, instead of squandering our money on Bashi-Bazouks and such like vermin, we should have had something to -show for our money now. The only argument I have ever heard against the organisation of such a force i 3 a very bad one ; but, badas it is when amlie 1 to war in Europe, it fails altogether when applied to war in India. The late Commander-in-Chief explained to the ' Seb •stopol Committee that, as England maintained but a small cavalry force, it was necessary for our national honour that it should be of such a calibre as to be competent to meet and overthrow the heaviest cavalry of the European Powers. Such an argument, applied to the nary, would forbid us to build gunboats and fi Ltatut, became they could not cope with the three-deckers of our enemies. In India, however, there is . no heavy cavalry, except our own, while there is abundance of light cavalry of firit-rate quality arrayed against us. Why not order General John Jacob, if he cannot be spared from the seat of war himself, to send us over a couple of his most competent lieutenants, and allow them to try their hands in this country in-organis-: ing forthwith a white brigade of Jacob'a Horse ?

The engine and two front carriages went over the bridge, and about 30 yards on the other side the couplers of the carriages broke, andthe vehicles fell over the einhankment.- The engine and tender went on the line for about 400 yards, and then they stopped. I Could not say whether the guard put on Cu break or not. After the train - went off both of the metals were thrown out of the gauge a few yards from the bridge. I gauged the rest of the metals and found them perfect. After we got the pasengers out I went down the line to where the carriages left the rails, but found nothing to a' count fa. the axident; LETTER FROM GENERAL NEILL. The Ayr Observer has been favoured with the following extract of a letter from General. Neill, dated Cawnpore, Aug. 1 : " I left Allahabad on the 16th, and joined Gan. Havelock's force on the 21st, and found poor Major Renaud had been severely wounded. His horse was first shot under him, a bullet then hit him above the knee, forcing part of the scabbard of his sword into the wound, and causing much suffering. Amputation seemed to afford great relief, and he appeared doing very well, when he suddenly ex pired, comparatively free from pain. He had done right well, and will be sincerely mourned in the regiment (the Fusiliers), in which he was much re spected and esteemed. Since I arrived here I have been hard at work to get order re-established. I have now put a stop to the plundering I found going on, by- re-organising a police. I am also collecting all the property of the , deceased, and trying to trace if any have survived, but es yet have not succeeded in finding one. Man, woman, and child seem all to have been murdered. As so. n as that monster ,Nana Sahib, heard of the success of our troops and of their having forced the bridge about 20 miles from Cawnpore, be ordered the wholesale butchery of the poor women and children. I find the officers' servants behaved shamefully, and were in the plot, all but the low caste ones. They deserted their masters and plundered them. When ever a rebel is caught he is immediately tried, and unless he can prove a defence he is sentenced to be hanged at once ; but the chief rebels or ringleaders I make first clean up a certain portion of the pool of blood, still two inches deep, in the shed where tt,o fearful mtli.dcr and mutilation of women and children took place. To touch blood is most abhorrent to the high caste natives ; they think by doing so they doom their souls to per dition. Let them think so. My object is to inflict a fearful punishment for a revolting, cowardly, barbrrous dew], and to strike terror into these rebels. The first I caught was a subadar or native officer, a high caste Brahmin, who tried to res . st my order to clean up the very blood he had helped to shed ; but I made the provost-marshal do his duty, and a few lashes soon made the miscreant accomplish his task. When done, he was taken out and immediately hanged, and after death buried in a ditch at the road-side. No one who has wit nessed the scenes of murder, mutilation, and mas sacre can ever listen to the word mercy, as applied to these fiends. The well of mutilated bodies— alas, containing upwards of 200 women and chil dren—l have had decently covered in, and built up as one large grave. I am in the entrenched camp—a most miserable position. None but Eng lishmen could have held it for a day, and yet how nobly did poor Sir H. Wheeler hold out here. On the 29th General Havelock moved on towards Lucknow. He had not gone far before he came on a strong post of the enemy—about 20,000, with guns. He defeated them gallantly, and took all their guns, but sustained considerable loss. . Amongst the number, I am sorry to say, was young Richardson, a fine gallant young officer of the Fusiliers, whom I had highly noticed at Benares for his '' gallantry ; and young Seton, of the 6 th Bengal Native Infantry, was wounded—he was hit in the lower jaw. He was an aide-de-camp, and made se for his gallantry. The same afternoon the force was again engaged, and again defeated the rebels, taking all their guns—making a total of 20 guns taken, all of which they spiked, and completely gained the day. Notwithstanding this on the 31st General Havelock returned to the bank of the river opposite Cawnpore, where he sent to me for fur ther reinforcements—requiring a battery, two 24- pounders, and a thousand more European infan try. I have just written to him that there is half a battery coming on here to-day from Alla habad, which I send on at once to him. I can also send him two iron guns, but European infantry there is none to send him here. If he waits for that ho must await reinforcements from Calcutta, and a long delay, during which time Lucknow may share the fate which befel Cawnpore. The rebels, flushed with vie' ory, will return on this, re-occupy Cawn pore, and I have no troops to keep them out. I must be starved out. The influence, too, on Agra may be most disastrous, but I hope General Have lock, who has been so successful, will now advance again and relieve Lucknow, which is to be aban doned, the ferie there brought in here, and by that time reinforcements will have arrived, ready to ac company General Havelock to Agra and Delhi. The European troops all wear linen blouses and caps ; our regiment (the Fusiliers) wear blue ones, which in the native language is neeltoppies ; and the noel topples are pronounced the terror of all, with their Enfield rifles. They disperse cavalry beautifully. Two hundred of the 2d Cavalry charged young Seton and tss elve of our Fusiliers ; they sent them flying with empty .addles. There is a report just brought me that a rajah has saved some gentlemen, ladies, and three children from the Cawnpore massacre, that they are 50 miles off, and that he will send them in to me. The next . mail will take all particulars. Each day may bring things to light, and my next letter I hope mayconvey satisfactory intelligence." JA COB'S HORSE• The following letter has been addressed to the editor of the Mites. Sir,—lt is now upwards of three years since I first attempted to impress upon the Horse Guards the necessity and economy of adding a few regi ments of really light . cavalry to the British army. Every military man to whom I spoke in private agreed with me that such a species of force was much wanted ; Lieut.-General Sir John Burgoyne stated before the Sebastopol Committee that it would have been most useful 'during the Russian war, and the late Sir Charles James Napier has over and over again recorded his opinion of the inutility of our present cavalry, overweighted as they are, especially for service in India. Our military authorities would not allow them selves to be stimulated on such a point by 'a civilian —they contented themselves with telling the public that a board of most exporieficed cavalry officers was sitting in Whitehall to consider whether any and what improvemente could be made in the RC coutretnen' s and armament of our cavalry ; proba bly they are sitting in Whitehall still. But, in spite of their protracted session, the British cavalry horse staggers in 1857 under precisely the same ight as he staggered under in 1851—about nine. £cen stone ' • when he carries his own forage he car ries about t w o-and-twenty stone. As soon as peace was proclaimed I ceased writing on the subject, knowing that I had no influence save that conferred by common sense and a goo' knowledge of the powers of the horse , and know ing also that common sense iu •peace time has very little to do with the administration of our army ; but now that war has broken out again in its most critical and fearful . phace ' and that we have been deprived by mutiny of the services of both the Regular and Irregular Horse of Bengal, I cannot refrain from again trying my persuasive powers on the Minister of War; In a letter which was published last week from an officer attached to General Ha,velock's force the following passage occurs The activity displayed by the enemy's horsemen in this action was very rernakable. They moved round our force menacing us at different points with e xtraordinar y rapidity, and, in scaar as manteuvring in the field went th:s cavalry was perfect. Now, I wish to draw particular attention to this fact, because these very men were our regular troopers, mounted on our own regular cavalry -horses-,-but armed and equipped after their own, instead of after the re gu l a r cavalry, fa=hion. The regular Ben gal cavalry, equipped and overloaded with their accou• trementß, have never been of any particular use in the army hitherto, but this shows what they might be made under a better system." Another letter, which I read a few days si nce, mentioned the execution done by one single shot fired by the mutineers from Delhi. It destroyed 8 men, " smashing the brass helmets of two privates of the Carabineers, covered with thick linen casillaS ' the thermometer being at 120 in the shade. Ane'da third letter, which I saw yesterday from an officer with the force before Del hi depl ores " that the weight of the_Carabineers and their accoutrements rendr them almost useless as cavalry." Ureter these circumstances, sir, I venture once more to lift up my voice in favour of organising in this country some really light cavalry for service in India. We have now many first-rate officers of Indian Irregularsunemployed, the regiments having either revolted or been disarmed. They know exactly the capabilities of the Indian horses ; they know the size and weight of the men who would be most effective at the present crisis, they know the dress and arms which would suit them best. Small men, such as they would select, are not accepted by the recruiting sergeants, and they are precisely the men who in this country are most ac customed to horses and riding—for no gentleman in his senses will allow a groom, postilion, or whip of six feet high to enter his stable. I again ask, therefore, would it not be advisable to organise half-a-dozen such regiments without Yesterday a detachment of Royal Marin'e Light Infa.litry, consisting of 48 non-commissioned officers and men, under the command of Lieutenant'H. L. Rose, 1, ft head-quarters, Chatham, and embarktd on hoard. the.„-Welliogton,4 72, CaptaitLp.L. Moore, having been previou-dy inspected by Lieutenant- Colonel J. H. Gascoigne. The Wellington is in tended to be employed on the Coastguard service on the coast of Scotland ; her crew, including marines, will consist of 330 men. • The whole of th. 3 staff appotntments in the three battalions which are to be formed at Chatham gar rison on the Ist of October are 'now filled up with the exception of the following, the officers for which have not yet been selected :—First Battalion—Ad jutant, Instructor of Musketry, and Assistant-Sur geon ; Second Battalion—lnstructor of Musketry, Surgeon, and Assistant-Surgeon ; Third Battalion —Quartermaster, Instructor. of Musketry, Surgeon, and' Assistant-SurgeoU. The depots of the whole of the regiments serving in India will be attacjied to the battalions at Chatham. The screw steam transport Italian, Captain John stone, arrived in Cork harbour from Liverpool on Tuesday to emb irktroops for India. She will take out 200 men and officers of the 18th Royal Irish, The screw steam-ship Austria is hourly expected at Cork to embark the 94th. The depot of the 14th Regiment, now stationed in Cork, has received orders to fdrm a second bat- talion. On Thursday a special train left the Curragh with 200 of the 18th Regiment for Cork, whence they. will proceed to Queenstown to embark on board the Italian for India. The 94th Regiment will leave Dublin for Cork in a few days to calla irk for Indic. Intelligence has reached Ireland announcing that second battalions are to be given to every regiment up to and including the 18th Royal Irish. A great deal of activity prevails in the shipbuild ing department of. Chatham Dockyard, in order to complete those vessels building which are ordered to be made ready for launching forthwith. Among the most forward of the ships 110 W in progress is the I Hero, -91, screw steamer, of 3,127 tons burden. It is eximcted that she will be fit for launching early in the ensuing year. The Hood, 90, is in a very for ward state, and will shortly be c mepletecl. The fine screw steam frigate Mersey, 40, has all the available force of the dockyard now at work about her, and the utmost dispatch is' being shown in having her completed. Although only laid down during the present year she is expected to be completed and ready for launching early next spring. The Chesapeake, 51, screw, Captain Rundle B. Watson, C. 8., was detained at Spithead in conse quence of the arrival of the Colombo, mail packet, at Southampton, so as to have the latest possible alvices from India. Captain Watson was in the dockyard awaiting a telegraphic message from the Admiralty from seven a.m. on Thursday up to a quarter to twelve. At half-past two p.m. the Chesapeake got under weigh with raiders to steam and to make a ferced passage to Calcutta. The Victory, guard-ship, Cape. G. 11. Seymour , C. 8., will be sooner out of the hands of the dock yard authorities than was at first expected. On stripping off her copper in various parts, and boring for proof, the old ship's timb •rs were found to be perfectly sound, and it was only between wind and water that her out-r planking was found to be rotten, which is nothing unusual after having been 21 years afloat. She can be at her moorings, again in lea than a month, and relieve the ugly yellow sided hospital ship, which now figures opposite the principal thoroughfare of visitors to her Majesty's dockyard. The Irresistible, 81, screw steamer, and Charyb dis, 21, are both progressing,.;the latter is to be supplied with engines of 400-horse power. The Goliah, 80, is undergoing several alterations - in order to adapt her for a screw steamer. In addi tion to two large screw steamers, to be named the Atlas, 91, and the Orpheus, 22, which are to be commenced immediately at Chatham, another 91- gun screw steamer, to be named the Bulwark, will be laid down immediately a building-slip is vacant. The head-quarters of the 7th Dragoon Guards left Chatham yesterday morning for the purpose of proceeding to Canterbury, where they will be sta tioned until the regiment embarks for India. The machinery department of the Meeanee, 80 guns, new screw steam ship, is ordered to be has tened. She is to be fitted as a second-:class steam shin of reserve. The Locust, 3 guns, paddlewheel steam vessel, Lieut.- Commander J B, Field, left, Sheerness at 5 p.m. on Thursday for Lelth. Capt. H. Harvey, flag-captain, proceeded to her for the purpose of investigating some matters connected with the fishery disputes between the British and French fishermen. Tllg FUNERAL OF M. MANIN. The funeral of M. Manin took place in Paris on Thursday. More than 1,500 persons followed his coffin to tho Montmarte cemetery. The pall be Irers were General Ulloa : M. Pinch&, formerly Finance Minister of the Venetian Republic ; M. Degl'Antoni, One of Manin's oldest friends ; and Ary Scheffer, the distinguished painter. Among the followers were General Dembinski, M. Montanelli, a number of Italian and Hungarian refugeF..s, M. li.gouve, of the French Academy; M. Levasseur, who was Consul of France at Venice during Manin's Government; and a great many literary men and journalists, French and foreign. The corpse was placed in the family vault of Ary Scheffer where tho remains of Manin's daughter already repose. Although Manin was not a huge man, the niche . of the vault in which his coffin was to be placed was found to be too narrow, and the masons had to enlarge it, which took nearly an hour, during which the cortege waited in the neighbourhood of the tomb. Everything passed off quite quietly. Certain precautions had been taken by the police, and M. Manin,. the sou of the deceased, was warned that no speech must be made, and that his presence in Paris would be no longer permitted if this order were disobeyed. It was, of course, duly oberved. The feeling of regret for the untimely c . lath of Daniel Mania is very general here, not on'y amongst those who share his opinions and adtnire his political life, but amongst all who enjoyed his acquaintance, and had had opportunities of appreciating his many excel lent qualities, his amiable character, his agreeable and intellectual conversation, and the cheerfulness ' and dignity with which he supported his reverses and exile. He was 53 years of age. I subjoin, from a Par's paper, a brief sketch of his career, al , ,hough it contains little but what is very gene i ally known : "M. Manin was born at Venice in 1804. He re ceived his education at the University of Padua, and obtained his doctor's degree at the age of seventeen. In 1830 he became an advocate at Venice, and soon attained a high reputation which brought him into atimate contact with all the eminent men iu Venice belonging to the Liberal party. In 1848, he played a prominent part in the political events of his country. Having been imprisoned previously to the outbreak of that year, he was liberated by the triumph of the popular cause, and its became the Dictator, and then the President of the Venetian Republic. On - the 27th of August, 1849, he was forced to resign, and to seek for safety in exile. He then came to Paris with his daughter and forty of his moat devoted followers. The remaining years of his life were principally passed in collecting documents telatingto the present history of Italy. The body or Manin was embalmed yesterday, and M. Ary Scheffer,' although seriously indisposed, took his likeness after death. The same eminent artist bad painted the por trait of Manin's daughter, who has now been dead some years. M. Thiors also was an intimate friend of the $ deceased." r HE- IRISH METROPOLITAN JR. MAGAZINE, for October, 1857, Price Is. 6d., will contain :- 1. Life's Foreshadowings.

PARIS FASHIONS.—The changes which have transpired in that article of a lady's attire, the cloak, are really ex traordinary. Some years since the sale of it was con• fineitto a few fashionable houses, whet., a. in such cases, there was the usual paucity of novelty and elegance ; but now, there are even wholesale warehouses in the city which employ from one to two hundred hands in this department alone I The truth is that not only fashion but custom has contributed to rondEr the cloak as necessary to a lady as her gown. And, as in all cases where aby article becomes generally adopted, ta,te steps in to create a distinctive superiority, eo, in this instance, the Parisians have concentrated their energies to pro duce works of surpassing beauty. The Et-08h labour for the million—the French for the elite—and examples of embroidery on black velvet for the latter class this season are so elaborately effective as to create surprise as well as admiration. One of these Psrisian chef-d'ceuvres, a cloak, with a bertha very tastefully attached (it-elf a highly original feature), may be seen at, Messrs. Jay's mourning establishment in Regent - street. It is, as it were, the "gem" of their show rooms this season. THE COLONIAL PRODUCE MARKETS. --These markets during the week have been without improvement, prices occasionally showing some depression where the supplies offered have been large. Since the arrival of the over land mail, however, several of the leading least India staples have further advanced, and have now attained a very high value without the speculative feeling being checked. Sugar Las been rather active, good to fine grocery meeting a ready tale at list week's rates, while low and soft close Gd. to is. in favour of buyers. Re finers have taken considerable supplies, and shippers are ndw purchasing more freely. Recent heavy arrivals have led to a further increase in stock, which, however, is still moderate. The Dutch Trading C. mpany's sale of Java, held on Thursday, went 5 to 6 guilders under the July quotations. The large erantity of plantation Ceylon csffee submitted has met with a .toady demand at a reduction of ls. to 2a., and Costa Rica went irregu larly at 24. to 44. lower rates. Colonial cocoa, to arrive, has changed hands at several shillings' decline. The aspect of the tea-market is altered, and it has been difficult to realise any quantities throughout the week, even at slightly lower rates. The public sales on Tues day and Wednesday passed off heavily, and a further series is announced for the 29th inst. Less inquiry has prevailed for rice, either on the spot or afloat. A large quantity of spice brought forward to-day was sold with out any material variation in prices. The market for saltpe're has been very active, the latest transactions establishing a rise of 6a. to 7s. To day fine Bengal brought 634. to 635. 6d., and at the close there were 1 buyers at those rates. Indigo has again advanced, good to fine Bengal being difficult to obtain even at is. 6d. per lb. above the rates of the July sales. Naval and Military Intelligence. TUXFORD, FRIDAY. This in atning an inquest on the bodice of the four pesons killed in the accident on the main line of the Great Northern Railway, about two miles south of Tuxford, was opened at the Newcastle Arms, Tt4ford, before Mr. W., Newton and a respectable jury. The jury having been sworn, proceede d to view the bodies, which were laid on stretchers iu the large room of the inn. That of the Hon. W. W. Clive presented no marks of yio'ence except a super fic al cut on the face. The head of Miss L. Pa g et ee s a shapeless mass. The head - of Mrs. Helton i w crushed almost flat. The body of Mrs. Pitman e iibited no outward marks of injury , and her face w re quite a placid expression. The jury next preceede . l to . inspect the scene of the accident, Mr. Leith, the superintendent of the Great Northern line, having provid ed a s p ecial train for the purpose. :From information' afforded toethe jury on the spot it appeared that the breisk yen in the year of the train and the carriage next to it wore observed by the plate-layers on the line to oscillate violently for about 100 yard, after which the third carriage from the end came into violent collision_with" the cap of a buttress of tLe viaduct over the road from Newark to Tuxford, and all thiee tumbled down the embankment. The violent shock thus given to t 1 e train broke the. hook of the tendon to which the fiat carriage waecoupled, and the engin e ran awa y f r about 200 "tarifa before the driver could bring it I up. In the nscantimo the, two feeemost carriages passed oveethe brag - e, beng aireseelY oft the reit., and ua arriving at the south side rolled down the embankment, turning completely over. Assistance was rendered, and the passengers were attended to as promptly as possible, but it was found that two of the ladies in the train were quite dead, and a third survived only a few minutes... Tile other per son killed, the Hon. Mr. Clive, was, thrown out of the carriage in which he was riding, - and was dashed with great violent against one of the . piers of the viaduct. He never spoke afterwards, but lived in an unconscious state for about a quarter Of an hour. The other 'passengers were injured, as has already been described in The Sum, with the exception that Capt. Marshall had not sustained such a severe injury of the eye as' was at' first 're ported. The jury returned to the inquest s rootn at about 10 o'clock. Mr. Leith, superintendent of the Great Northern line, was present to watch the case for the company. Mr. Graves, the resident engineer ; Mr. Child, the company's surgeon .; and Mr. Wil liams, superintendent of the police of the line, were also present. The Coroner, addressing the jury, said, as they had now viewed the bodies an I inspected the place where the accident they had met to inquire into had muffed, he begged to say that he proposed to-day only to go into so much of the evidence as would put them in 'possession of the main fiats connected with_ this unfortunate occurrence, and then to ad journ the inquest to a future day, to ascertain if possible the cause of the catastrophe. eThis would afford the friends of the deceased. and surviving sufferers by the accident an opportunity of being present at the investigation, and of making any in- • quiries which they might deem necessary fir their own satisfaction. In the meantime he was requested to state that the officials of the company were anxious to give every facility for eliciting the fullest pos-ible information as to the.cause of the accident, and that no expense or trouble would be spared for that purpose. They had already had afforded to them by Mr. Leith an oppoitunity of making the minutest examination of the scene of the accident, and any of the company's servants whose evidence might be required by the jury would be brought before them. The officials of the line had telegraphed to the Beard of Trade informa tion of the accident, and a gentleman would be sent'down from thet office, and they would have the benefit of his assistance at a future inquiry. The Coroner then proceeded to examine the wit nesses in attendance. Mr. John Marr, of Morecambe, near Lancaster, brother to Mrs. ary Heaton ' and cousin to Miss Letitia Paget, identified the bodies of those two ladies. He said—Mrs. Heaton was a widow, 63 years of age, and resided at 18, Green-square, Lan caster. Miss Paget was 43 or 44 years of age, and r e sided at Forton-lodge, near Manchester. They both left the Lancaster railway sta'doa yesterday morning. Mr. It. B'otb, travelling auditor for the Great Northern . Railway, identified. the b idy of Mrs. Pitman. She was the wife of Mr. Pitman, the re ceiver of the company's rents. R. 8001, groom of the chambers t) the neither of the Hon. W. W. Windsor Clive, at Howell Hall, Broomsgrove, Worcestershire, identified the body of the unfortunate young gentleman. He was ' 20 years of age, and se art d from Manchester yes-. terday morning by the Great Nonhern train iu perfect health. Jas. Smith, of Bury, Lancashire, examined—l was travelling by the Great N irther n It iilway yes terday from Manchester to London. .It was in the end compartment of a first-class carriage. We left, Manchester at 10 o'clock a.m: The trainde timed for 9.55. We were not more than five minutes late. The first stoppage we made was at Guile-bridge, *here we pulled up for two or three minutes. Tue next stoppage was at Sheffie!d, and I remarked to a friend in the carriage hose punctually we ran, having a " Bradshaw 's Guide" in my hand. We stayed 13 minutes or a quarter of an hour at Shef field. . We went slowly round by the curve at Ret ford. The next stoppage was at the place of the ac cident. I think we went a little faster between Sheffield and the place of the accident . than be tween Manchester and Sheffield. I did not consi der it more than the usual speed for an express train. I have been accustomed to travel ill express trains. When I left Manchester I was in the same carriage with Mr. Pitman-and his lady.. At Shef field my friend Mr. Raynor and myself left the hind compartment of the carriage and got into the front compartment of the same vehicle. A gen tleman was in the carriage,_ whom I have since ascertained was the Hon. r. Clive. I felt the accident all at once—as sudden as a gunshot. As far as I can remember I did net feel any oscilla tion of the carriage before we were doubled up as it were, and falling down the slope of the, embank ment. The effect was as if a . person had put his foot into 'a bandbox and crushed it up. The only conversation I had with Mr. Clive was whe ther he was a smoker. He said he was, and we changed carriages to smoke with him. Mr. Clive was sitting with his back to the engine, and next to the window,. which was about half open. As soon as I gathered myself up I found that I had no injury but a great pain at the bottom of the back. My friend and myself shortly after found Mr. Clive leid on an embankment below the railway. My friend gave him a little brandy and water, but he did not revive. I did not notice that we were going at any additional speed at the time the accident occurred. I believe we were keeping correct time. After the accident I went to the top of the bank and over the bridge, but I did not observe any displacement of the metals, or anything to indicate the cause of the accident, except a disturbance of the ballast where the carriages had left the line. - , Mr. Braithwaite Raynor, of Bury, Lancashire, corroborated the evidence of Mr. Smith, but he did not think they stopped more than 10 or 12 minutes at Sheffield. The guard told him they should not stop more than 10 minutes. flis impression was they were not going at more than the proper speed, considering that the distance between Manchester and London had to be accomplished in five hours. He thought they went too slowly from Manchester to Sheffield, and that they went a li•tle quicker after they left Retford, but net FA) much so as to excite any remark. It did not see n more than express speed. He felt a slight oscillation just b - fore the accident, but they wont over almost instantaneously. He did not observe any jumping of the carriages previously, or anything to indicate an obstruction on the line. He went upon the line after the accident, but could discover no clue to the accident, and was quite at a loss to account for it. When the first shock was over Mr. Smith and him self found themselves on their backs on the roof of the carriage, which was upside down. When they re covered from the shock they looked for their friend (Mr. Clive), and found him on the slope of the bank quite unconscious. The carriage was smashed to pieces. Mr. and Mrs. Pitman were in the first compartment of the carriage ; some ladies were in the middle ; and Mr. Smith, Mr. Clive, and him self, were in the last.the Robert Brooks, a platelayer in the employ of Great Northern Company, examined —I was dwork ing yesterday on the line near the W es ton-bri ge. I saw the Manchester express comi g in sight, and asked one of the men wh at time it was. He looked at his watch, and said it was twos minutes a mile to 12. The train was then about three-quters of from where I was and appeared to be travelling quite right. I saw the three hindmost carriages strike the corner of the bridge. They were the two last carriages and the break. All the car- John Shams; of-Peterborough, engine driver,.ex amined—l ion the driver of the No. 13 express train. from Manchester. Igo from Sheffield to Peterborough, and Peterborough to Sheffield. Yesterday I drove . .the same engine as I- have had for. the last three weeks for this train. I - left Peter- Lorougit the night before when the engine -- was all right. • I left Sheffield. at 11.13. I took/the time from my own watcUand the clock at the station. I m do not keep any memorandu_ of the time. I had an engine, four carriages, and - a break. 1 -got to Retford station at a quarter to 12 o'clock.' We are not timed there. At the time the accident hap pened it was two minutes to 11 o'clock. I looked at my watch. I was driving at the rate of 50 , to 55 mil's an hoar. I judged this from the time we had been coming. , I did not notice anything wrong till I got on the bridge, when I felt a jerk at . the engine. I reversed my engine, and on looking ha& I saw two carriages next the tender going over the batik. We had -only one break to the train. We ire Ito have two, but now we have - an einptyclrriage next to the engine instead. There was a .4cl:on my tender,-bat There was no com munication between the guard and me. I have al ways had'. one before. This was the only time I have been without communication. Ido not know the reason it was omitted. It is the duty of the por ters to put on the communication. From Retford, to Tuxford we were at our regular speed. I did not put ou extra steam. We were working with a pressure of steam at 120. We cannot get any greater spec I than that, the engine being fastened. In. going up or down an incline I can regulate the steam. We wero going at a regular speed. I use the regulator according to my own judgment. I eased theregulator on the Retford side of the Tux ford statien. I had about half steam on from Ret ford to work up the incline fromTutford, and when approaching Tuxford I altered .the regulator one hole, taking off the steam. The regulator acts pro perly, and I have no fault to find with it. The en gine has be used for express trains for some time. She was made for the same speed as she runs at. She was repaired about six months ago, but not fur the purpose of making extra speed. We sun through from Sheffield to Newark, 42 miles, without stop ping, but. as far as water is concerned we could run through to Peterborough. I consider that the wheels should be greased every 50 miles. With a very light tn.:is we can go uphill or downhill with very little difference of steam. I diminished the power. of the steam at the t )1) of the bank, after getting through the tunnel at Tuxford, and going down the incline to Weston-bridge. By the Foreman—lf there had been a communi cation with the guard I should have been aware of the carriages leaving the line sooner than I was, but not in time to avert the accident. Samuel Setchell, fireman to No. 13 up express train, examined—l was fireman yesterday. I no ticed that we left Sheffield at 11.13. The driver has to give an account of the time, but I do not know whether he kf-eps a memorandum book to enter the time. Ido not know how the regulator stood. I mended the fire as we went 'through Tuxford sta tion. The driver g ives directions to mend the fire. 1 did not notice the degree of the pressure of steam we were working at. When we got to the top of the bank after leavihg Tuxford I saw the di iver move the regulator, but I did not notice at what particular point it stood. I was looking forward when the accident occurred. I felt the engine jerked up just when we were close ou the bridge. I immediately.turnel on the break, and 1 saw the break van and two of the carriages falling over the corner of the bridge. We were running at a speed of about 50 miles an hour, but not over that, and it might have been less. We have no p articular 1 orders as to the time of running. We have to work ley the time bill. We wore not travelling quicker than tpuat yesterday. -We had about the same sized train as useal. The engine has never gone wrong at all. She has not been under repair we have had her. The regulator and the gauges have always worked properly. The engine went about 20& yards before we pulled up. We cannot pull up in 200 yards when the train is going at ex press speed. Ido not know why the communisa tion was not put on the traie. The guard whiatl when thereis no communication. I have never travell©d without the communication before with this train. I did not tell the potter of Sheffield th it there was no communication. I have not heard that is a .positive regulation of the company that there shall be a communication between the tender and the break. The Coroner here inquired of Mr. Leith whether it was a regulation that the communication should be used with these trains. Mr. Leith replied that it was. Examination of witness continued.—lt is the duty of the guard to see that the communication is put on.

When the communication is on and the bell rings three times we stop. If it had been on when the accident occurred it would have made very little difference. We should not have had. t ime to pull up. • The Coroner here read the 57th rule of the com pany regulations on this subject, which is as follows.:— Tneexact time for performing each journey will be tired by the time-table, and the great object of the eugineman must be to keep his engine going regularly at the speed required, and from which speed he should vary as little as possible, never exceeding the speed actually required for keeping the time punctually, and therefore never arriving at any of the stations, or any part of the line, or at the end of the journey, before time. If employed in taking empty carriages or empty engines along the line, he must not exceed 30 miles per hour without special orders to that effect." Mr. Peter Whitiugton, surgeon, of Tuxford, examined—l got to Weston-bridge between 12 and 1 o'clock yesterday. The first person I saw was Mrs. -Pitman, who was laying on her back, dead. There. was no fracture of the skull. She appears to have died from iutAtnal CORCU39IOI3. I saw the other two deceased ladies. The' cause of their death was sufficiently apparent from the extensive fractures of th sir skulls. Mr. George Borlase Childs, 11, Finsbury-place south, surgeon to the Gre Northern Company.— I have examined the bodies Of the.four deceased. I have examine" Mr. Clive. Thera is severe lacera tion of the left thumb, and a small wound over the right angle of- the lower jaw. I cannot dis cover any fracture of the skull. The cause of death is uncertain, except that it arose from the accident, It may have been from concussion of the spine or brain. : Miss Letitia Paget had a severe fracture of the skull, and there was au escape of nearly the whole of the brain, also a fracture of all the bones of the face. Mrs. eaton has fracture of the skull. The top of the skull is completely gone from the base, without any appearance of scalp wound: Mrs. Pitman had a simple fracture of the left leg, and some abrasions of the face. The immediate cause of de ith is uncertain ; it may have been from con cussion of the brain or concussion of the spine. Arthur Gray Buckby, surgeon, Sutton-ou-Trent —I arrived at the scene of the accident at, about one o'clock. I saw Mr.' Clive almost immediately after my arrival. He was lying on the bank. I saw no marks of violence. I attribute his death to con cussion of the spine. line, w as nextSeuxpaemrininteedn dasenttootfhthe se Great o h Northern e.ac but he b y te t e fo s r h in o e u d id an b y e =v ) c o l l e e n :li t!, a t t u l t ie h l et a tl n oi o i t g more danger in going do so at the adjo urned inquiry. He did not think a light train incu rred any down an incline than other trains. A heavier train would be more difficult to pull up. It was a regu lation of the company to have the communication between the guard and driver put on all these trains. It was the duty of the guard to see that work done. After some conversation between the jury and Mr. Leith, The Coroner intimated that they had now gone through all the evidence that would be adduced to day, , and the inquest would therefore stand adjourned to a future day for the further investi gat'on of the case. It was, after some discussion, settled that the in quiry shouldhil d, stand adjourned to Tuesday nex t.

In the . course ; of elonvereation he.askEd his cousin teeneasure Vin .7 for a coat: - and while Wood was so engaged lie.dis- covered that Beale had a small pistol in his breast poe!ke'. On asking him - why he carried such a we pon, Beale said. he had a lways carried a 'pist , 1 !iti e he was attacked near the l o tlge-gate'of ' the ho se at . which he was living, and that he always ke tit leaded and capped. *One of the workmen su ested that it Was . rather dangerous to haYe a loa ed pistol about one's. person, to .which.. Beale rep ied " Oh, no, a child ceuld play with it." After staling some time Beale and his cousin, with some of the workmen, adjourned to. the King'S Herd ta.vjern, in Wine-street, where they had some bier tog,'ether, played several games of bag ttelle, and left rather late in the evening. On Wednesday morning Beale saw his -cousin again at the shop, and told him he was going to Bath. Wood _saw DO more of him until Friday night, and agp.iii On Saturday morning at the_wOrkshop. In the . course . of conversation the murder which had been dis- dcratered on the previOus evening was alludel to,' and the 'workmen now recollect that while ' taking about it, Beale turned pale and trembled. NO notice was taken, 'however, at the time, as it - was thoarght that Beale had been drinking rather freely. Beale shortly afterwards wished hip cousin and h's- fellow workmen "Good-by," and. stated that -he was ,going hick- to Bath. It hap .alsa.been ascertained that on Wednesday Beale :- went to the shop of Mr. Titornley, of Clare-street, Biist3l, and ordered a new hat; stating that he would—call.- for—it— on Friday morning. He did ,not„however, call on that day, but he came on Saturday morning about 10 o'clock, paid , 118. for the hat, which he lest at the shop, and c led for it again about 1. o'clock, when he re- ; q ested that it might be put into a hatbox, with , .1 -his name written on it. This was done, and Bbale left, taking his hat with him. A Man tiervant, living at Mr. Bythesea's, at Freshfor,i, accompanied Beale and the deceased to the Lim- , piey Stoke Station, and saw them both take the - Vain for, Brist el. By Beale's directions the .girl's bOxes were labelled for Bristol, and were directed, "'.Mr. Beale, passenger to Bristol, to be left till,:. : ' called for." On Thurs lay morning Beale wont t 3 the railway station for the luggage, and had an al- ' tercation with the authorities respecting an alleged ' overcharge for the removal of the boxes frein the , Great Western to the Kdland station. On Friday Beale was in company with a man named Hill, who ~ Was about to marry his sister, and who had arrived at Bristol from Cornwall a day or two previously, and it is believed that -he slept with Hill at the Alma eating-house, Temple-gate, Bristol, on Fri- dty night. Beale was a married man, and lived with Prigs - ley at tho Hon. - Mrs. Hutchinson's, at Dorset-house, Clifton. After that lady's establish ment at Clifton was broken up Pugsley went to live at Flora-cottage, Clifton, with Beale and his wife, and in consequence of some jealousy on the part of the wife Pugsley left rather suddenly. Be fore taking his present situation Beale lived at „ Park's College, near Bath, and took frequent op portunities of visiting Pugsley at Freshford. Mrs. Louise Ford, honsekeeper to Mr. Bythesea, states that a day or two before Pagsley left Freshford she withdrew her money from the bath Savings-bank, and that she also re eived 41. ss. on account of her wages. It is believed the deceased had about 101. in her possession at the time she left Freshford. Beale arrived at Bristol shortly before 6 yester day evening in custody of Norris Inspector of Bath , Police. On quitting the train :he mob rushed on hini, and with difficulty the life of the prisoner wag. preserved. He was at once taken before the magis trates at Bour;on Union Workhouse, where, after the evidence of Jones, superintendent of the Ashton police, had been taken, he was remanded till this day (Saturday), He volunteered a statement deny ing his guilt, admitting that he knew Charlotte Pugsley ; she was a married woman though passing under her maiden - name. On Thursday, the 10th, after bring her from Freshford on the previous day, he handed her over to her husband, whose Chas- -: tian name was George or Thomas ; he slid not know the surname. They were to have seen him ou the' next day, but as they did not come he returned to Daventry, taking with him deceased's boxes hop ing they would be applied for. This statement varies from the one wade to his fellow-servants at Daventry, whom he told the boxes and contents belonged to a sister who was dead, and to attend whose funeral he obtained the leave of absence for a week. This is known to be false. The' prisoner main' ained his self-possession, and signed his state ment with a firm hand: THE GREAT NORTHERN OR FRANCE RAILWAY FRAUDS. The trial now taking place of Carpentier, Grellef, and the other parties implicated in the robbery of the Northern of France Railway, developes circuin- starics which show that the sine system of man agement has been common to all these concerns, whether in London, Paris. or New York . . M. Car pentier, although only 26 years of age, was princi pal .cashier of this. gigantic company, representing a share capital alone of nearly 7 millions sterling, at the modest salary of 2801. a year. Grellet, who was his deputy, is a more mature person of 31, and his income was of course smaller. Their accom- plices were Guerin, a night watchman in the offi ces of .the company at 481. per annum, and Paired, formerly a medical student and lattirly a horse dealer. Their total robberies from the company are stated at 240,0001. The two principals, Car peutier and Grellet, had been promoted for their "attention and intelligence"—lhat is to say, for the possession of those qualities of speculative and financial shrewdness, couple , ' with unscrupulous subserviency, which, in the eyes of directors of pub lic, companies, cause men to be regarded as perfect treasures. The idea that there are other qualities necessary to the proper performanea of responsible duties never seems to have occurred to the eminent gentlemen who ruled the de,tiuies of the Northern of France Railway. Carpentier and Grellet bad been speculating largely on the Bourse for 4 years, and had been notoriously iutimat '3 with Parrot, the horsedealer, while Guerin, the watchman, had - become a thriving notability as a landowner and money lender; by rea4on, of course, of having " in herited a large fortune." The private life also of Carpentier appears to have b3en disreputable. But what was all this to the directors? The then were doubtless quiCk and dashing, overbearing to the inferior drudges of the establishment, and seivile to the last degree to their superiorS, ready to ac. cept the largest amount of responsibilisy for the smalleSt amount of pay, and characterised by den-' pacity for appreciating the greatness of the giants of the Bourse, which at once carried them to favour, _ _ , . the self-esteem of their dupes forbidding the suppo sition that they might try to join in the gaine at which they appeared to look only with humble admiration. It has been just the same on this side. Robson riding on his 500 guinea mare to earn his salary of 1501. a year at the Crystal PalaCe--. Redpath working for 3001., while he was maintain ing half a dozen establishments and disbursing thousands annually in magnificent gifo,—and Car pentier, with his 2801., ravelling with loose aszo - - ciates, and patronised by admiring employers, not iirifeaset there are one of whom had the insitiuct to distrust him,—. each present the same figure to the mind, so ridicti lously tran.parent are all the features of the several. cases in their absolute encouragement to robbery. Iu the eyes of the chairman and directors of our own Northern Railway what an invaluable creatur4 Guerin, the watchman, would have seemed, with l a nds, houses, and funds at his commanped,rvyaeatedael-1 bottom The o t tendencies h e de votedly willing for 48'. per annum to spend w ak e . directors of railwalit fill nights in guarding the cash office of his' eni sPol somec° i Y e e t r y s a a , dla conclusions.nTdhaets theam illo gical and of joint-stock undertakings generally ' ~ repre sent the class of persons whom the business °oar , annuity most prize, the er 3 Redpatb, Carpenti and their fellows represent the m e n wh o a re most popir. lar with directors. A. feeble ata'e of public n3ollitY's therefore, is at the root of. the evil, fiend it ie vein to suppose that there is h towards a cure an approach simply because the lower delinquents are prose• cuted and sentenced when they aro found out. There has been one creditable feature, however, in the present case which has not been witnessed in any of the London ones. Baron James Rothschild seems to have been conscious that the robbery could not have been carried on if he and his brother directors had exercised common vigilance, and he has therefore taken the greater part of the-loss au his own shoulders. Looking at the extreme dia. taste with which the English Great Northern di rectors viewed the mild suggestion of Lord Redes dale for a slight contribution, as well as at the fast that the late North of Europe Board are said not even to have carried out the virtual under standing that they should return, the fees they had received for ruining their co-proprietors, the ex ample stands brightly out, and deserves to be well recorded. —Times City Article.
