SHETIIILD, AND LINAOLNIMIRR RAILWAY .—A eeriou,
railway accident, attended with 1014 of life and injury
to several perecies, happened on the Marichester.
Sheffield, and Lincolnshire, Railway, near Greet...ell,
Lincoln, on Monday week. It seems that the 745 p.m.
passenger tiain entered the cutting at Greetwell a
little behind ita time. On nearing the Lincoln end the
tire of the engine-wheel came off ; the engine ran off the
rails, dragging the carriages after it. and ran into the,
hank, which et this point is from six to eight feet high,
and then turned over oil its side. The cleaner,
Frederick Taylor, of New Holland, fell off, and the
engine fell upon him, the lower part of hi* body being
underneath the engine. Of course he was killed upon
the spot, bat hie body was Itot extricated Wail 6 o'clock
the following morning. The migineelriver was thrown
upon the hedge, and Ili, head wax severely cut. The
tender was thrown upon its 16.10 in ouch • position
that it formed an arch, under %Ince the stoker crept,
and was uninjured. After the tender were three fish
trucks, all of which were thrown ileer, and the conteutt
of the vans were thrown about in all directions.
Immediately following the fi-h trucks were the
passenger carriages, in the first of which were several
passengers. On the seats nearest the engine were two
paesengers, cane of whom wan Mr. Clarke, of Hornelectle,
whose win woe sitting in another pirt of the carriage.
The paatengers were first mole aware that. something
bad gone wrong by hearing • loud noise mid feeling
sudden jeik. Mr. Clarke at once jumped over the
seat in front of him, snit hail no sooner done this and
reached the c.mtre of the cerriage then the *mil was
forced in, Mr. Clorke, jun., having hislegs !nett severely
lecorateil ; the father escaped with a few bruices.
Upon the accident being noide known in Lincoln, the
station-manter, Mr. Hawkins, at once sent for Mr.
Septimus Lowe, surgeon, who, with aseistance, pro-
ceeded to the scene of the diseitter. Shortly afterwerile
the injured man was brought to Lincoln, and taken to
the Lion Hotel ; the wound,' of the driver were dressed
in the weiting•room of the station. Mr. Clarke
having been •xemined, it wee found that DO bouiee were
broken, but the left thigh wow found to be torn from
the knee to the hip. Iluudreils of people left Lincoln
tin Tuesday morning to view the scene of the accident.
The place where the engine left the rails is quite
eitible. although the indentation of the wheels is very
slight. The opposice side-roils wine much bent by the
train running over, but the rails upon which the
train was travelling are perfect. The carriages. fith.A.c .
were strewn about in all directions, while the engine
and tender remained restine upon the bankside where

John Turner, the foreman, who was killed at the acci-
dent on the above liim teat Monday. The witnesses
examined deposed to the wanner in which the line was
worked, and stated that although there were printed
regulations for the guidance of the officials, yet there
was no order to prohibit the engineers froin taking their
engines upon the platform which had fallen in on ldon-
day last. The borough engineer, James Newland', Esq.,
stated that lie had examined the platfurui, and
wt.* of opinion that it was totally unlit to
bear the weight of an engine. Ile would request some
time, however, to make a thorough 'rumination of
the structure, and ascertain the weight of the platform,

had no power whatever in regulating the erection of
those structures ; lie bad iumited the question

GREAT SKATING M4TCH.—An exciting skating match,
open to alt England, took plaoe on the Ouse on Tuesday,
the 15th inst., in the presence of • great number of
spectators, whom the comparative novelty of the pro-
oeedings attracted to the spot. The river at Huntingdon,
where ;he match took place, was crowded, and the ice
must have been of unusual strength to have borne such
an extraordinary pressure. 'The most exciting rues
were between See and Stuart, both of Weluey, and
Sharp, of Crowland. See has competed six or seven
times during the frost with Smart, who was beaten ;
but the course on thine occasions was two miles. At
the match on Tuesday the distance was only one tulle.
and Smart, carrying off the prindpal prise, regained his
position as skating champion of England, which lie has
hell for some years. Prises to the amount of 1:30 were
distributed during the day, and the proceedings afforded
a striking proof of the readiness with which Englishmen
extract ainusement, even from what is generally re-
prded u a dreary winter.
THS SLAVE TRADL—lntelligeoce has been received
froin Nassau, Bahamas, to the effect that one of the
amaller and remoter ialands of that colony was in
Inicember last meted by the captain and crew of •
slaver, who had been wrecked on a neighbouring reef,
atid who, after forcing the keepers of the English light-
house to assist them in disembarking WO African slaves,
obtained possession of a (adonisl steamer, in which they
sailed to the opposite coast of Cuba, where they pro-
cured a large vessel, which returned with them and
carried off the living cargo before the force which the
Governor, on hearing the intelligence, had despatched
to their re-cue, could arrive. It is worthy of note
Oita 400 slaves were wrecked off another of these islands
in August last • and that, on • third, an exploring
party, seut by the Governor iu May last, discovered a
hairacoou, in which there wax every appearance of
slaves having been recently kept, while wasting fur an
opportunity of deportation to Cuba.
Tits BRITIAN LEGION.—The second body of the
British Legion, which a telegram received on Monday
informed the public would be sent overlord from Genoa
to England, arrived suddenly on Tuesday morning.
They were landed in a steamer at London-bridge. They
had all been told that they would be sent to their re-
spective destinations, the Scotch to Glasgow, Edin-
burg, and 'overuses, and the English and Irish to their
respective 'tunics in the provinces. For two days the
men besieged the Offices of the Special Garibaldi Fund
Committee, who unfortunately had no fuuds to meet
requirements so large. Ultimately the Sardinian Go•
verninent, communicated with by the minister here,
kindly and promptly gave orders that the men should
be forwarded by railway. On Wedneeday night a con'
sitlerable number destined for the north of England and
Scotland left by the London and North Western Rail-
