(From the Narwhal& Guardian of this day.)
Darin the Whitsuntide holidays, to-day end yesterday,
trip trains were hourly run from the leads Wellington sta-
tion to the Royal Gardens, at Heedingly, where gales were
given. The hourly train which left Leeds a little atter three
o'clock, yesterday afternoon, proceeded es nasal an the
down line until it arrives it the point opposite the gardens.
, It is then usual for the engine to reverse. to run over the
' points on to the up line, and thence drop down to the °er-
as= station en the down line. The train in question, which
was executing this movement, consisted of 13 carriages and
two vans. The last van, on th• train being put back, got off
the road, owing to mew ualmown cans*, and WAS turned
over on its side, and thts occurring en a steep incline,
the coupling chains broke, and released the carriages
followng. All there coaches, in passing the van, caught a
projecting wheel, and were successively damagodmorieci-
pally about the handles of lb. doors sad the Urge,
aad they then ran back to the olbeck Mat distant
about a mile, before they could be arrested is their course.

injured, and one man, named Stephen Kirkby, was cubes-
quietly removed to the Leeds Infirmary with a broken leg.
