two men engaged on the works, James liosns and

purpose of setting stones for the embankment. The plank
suddenly gave way, and had it not been that a board be-
tween it and the embankment—a distance of sit feet— bad
broken the tall, both of the unfortunate labourers must
have been crushed. As it was, one man, Hoskins, has
sustained severe internal injuria in the chest, and though
perfectly conscious, is still lying in a dangerous state ;
end the other, Evans, was seriously hurt about the bead
and limbs. Both the sufferers were inunediately taken to
Cbaring-croas Hospital.
