A passenger in the bun has gives the following wont

with tee steadies, I sow diannered had been thrown
from the bridge over which the trains pass at Staplehunt
into the water below, and death and destruatios reigned
around. The remain el the shattered were pro.

passenger, came upon the sons. He, it appeared, bad

the bridge, although the thane that it did not do so was
the slightest in the world. This ur rage, which was the
first from the eagles, bad held firm by the coupling hos to
the tender, and thin it was pretreated sharing the fate of
the others, although it btecoily ling half spas tie line,

not to be had, Mr. Meese took off his bat, end having
filled it with water, I saw him running about with it and
doing his best to revive and comfort every poor creature be
met who had metaled serious injury. Another gentle-
man, who I afterwards disarmed to be Mr. !demos' Reed,

acted in a praiseworthy moaner, for although he had
a narrow escape from a terrible death, he with great

Within 20 snoods the train made a sudden jump, and it
became instantly apparent that we were of the metals. The
next few seconds of dread and uncertainty it is impossible
to describe. The rush of blood to the heart and brain
consequent on the certain oonviotion that a fearful crisis is
imminent has probably been experienced by all who have
reached the age of 25. or even fewer nave ; but is this la-
thing it was aggravated be the felting and plunging of the
wrier, which was tends. When the train cams to a
standstill aad I got out of the window, the door of course
being inked, the first thing that arrested my attention
was the wonderful position of the carriage which I
had just left. The front wheel was completely of

I stood and looked down noon the splintered fragments it
woe impossible to tell bow rimy carriages were there. Bat
for some minutes there was no sound—no homes voice
raised. The worst bad come, and was past—there wen
nothing more to fear. Some few had been struck down at

before consciousness returned had died of suffocation in the
12 or 14 inches of mad and water into which send of
the carriages had been thrown. Some were crawling oat
