RAILWAY ACCIDENT.

About half-past 8 o'clock on Sunday evening last,
an accident occurred at the Bury station of the Lancashire
and Yorkshire Railway. A train was at the Bury station
ready to start for Manchester, when an escurelon train, from
Fleetwood to Rochdale and Halifax, cams with great velocity,
and drove two of the earlier, belonging to the Manchester
train off the line. The carriages were driven with such trio
lent* as to knock down two of the iron pillars that supported
the roof of the covered platform, and several yards of the
roof immediately fell wilt a dreadful crash. The car-
riages were breken in pieces, and several pinatas were injured.
Tt e engine•driver, Thomas Jones, was immediately taken
into custody, and the following day he was broughtlyirsre
the meg:crates, at the petty sessions held at Bury. The
charge assiost the engine-driver was, that he had disobeyed
the signals, aad bad thereby injured person and property.
The magistrates decided to commit the driver for trial at the
Salford sessions, and they refused to accept of bail, is conse-
quence of the near approach of the session., and the uncer-
tainty whether the sufferers would survive.
