TEE. RAUH-AT ACCIDENT NEAR OLDBURY.

The accident which occurred on Monday evening
last, on the London and North-Western Railway, near
Oldbury, occasioned considerable excitement and gossip
yesterday. Occurring at so late en hour little was known of
the affair until the following morning, in the town of Old-
bury. The pointsman in charge of the box at Oldbury
Station positively states that his danger signal was
up when the goods train from Buahbury arrived, and oleo
that he hoisted his own hand lamp in order to warn the
driver of the approaching goods train which ran
into the break van and trucks which were stationed at
the Eton Lens Dada. The warning, however, owing to
the dimes fog which pre was either unobserved or
unheeded until too late, and 'cm at • good speed
about tLfteen trucks were smelted, and both lines com-
pleted y blocked for some time. The stoker's hand was
slightly injured, and the goods guard, who remained at
hippest, was very much shakes, so math DO that upon
arriving at Dudley Port soon after the accident, he said,
to use his own words, " that it nearly shook all the hair
from his head." With the exception of these, no bodily
injury was sustained. It was not until 5 o'clock last
evening that both lines could be cleared, but after that
time all went on rightly.—BireviegAses But.

A HAN WOUNDAD AY HIS IVIFB AND HIS
DAUGHTAR.

In the Wolverhampton police court. yesterday,
before Mr. 0. L. Underhill, Mr. C. B. Mender, and Mr.
31. Ironmonger, Eli= Evans was charged with assaulting
and inflicting grievous bodily harm upon her father,
Henry Evans; and Sarah Evans, wife of the com-
plainant, was charged with attempting to wound
Lim. On Monday evening last, between 7 and
ti o'clock. when the three were at their home in Bell-
street, a dispute arose, and the father struck a sailor who
associated with the daughter, Eliza Evans. Upon
this she rose and struck her father a fierce blow on the
head with a piece of three-cornered iron which lay near
the grate, and which was used as a poker. An extensive
wound, opening the scalp right across the left side of the
head, and leading to a profuse flow of blood, resulted. The
injured man was conveyed to the South Staffordshire
Hospital. where his wounds were dressed, and the sur-
geons advised that he should not be removed. Ile, how-
ever, insisted upon returning home, and there a
quarrel took place between him and his wife.
Police-constable Lilly was passing at the time, and saw
the wife stabbing her wounded husband in the left side
with a table-knife, which she held firmly in her hand by
the assistance of a cloth wrapped round the handle. As-
sisted by a civilian, the officer disarmed the wife, and took
both to the station, where they were kept all night with
the daughter, who had been previously taken into custody
by Police-constable Cross. The wife did not inflict a
wound in her husband's side ; the knife was round pointed,
and would only pierce the clothes. Eliza Brans, the
daughter, was committed for trial at the sessions. The
charge against the older prisoner ultimately resolved itself
into one of common assault, and she was sent to prison for
two months, with bard labour.—Binsatageoni Post.

DEP-IRTI'AZ OF imIXARY CARPILYTER FOR

INDIA

Yesterday Miss Mary Carpenter left her re4i-
deme. Red-lodge-house, Bristol, for Marseilles. en route
for ludia, to which distant empire she pays a second visit.
for the 'arrest of founding a system of schools, with a
view to the elevation of the native female character.
Miss Carpenter was accompanied by a young lady she has
adopted as a daughter, and she will be followed by
another route by some English ladies who are to assist her
in the conduct of an iutended normal college, and in
other of her philanthropic works. Miss Carpenter's
former visit to India was ono merely for investigation
and inquiry, and it was therefore comparatively bnef in
its duration. Her present intention is, however. should
her health be vouchsafed to her, to remain until she has
placed her meditated operations on a secure working
footing. The withdrawal of the distinguished phil-
anthropist from her native city, and from the reforma-
tory and industrial schools and other social institutions of
which she had the supervision, very naturally caused a
feeling of regret, and on Monday and Tuesday public ex-
pression was given to that feeling. On Monday a number
of persons connected with the conduct of the Ragged
Schools, the Workmen's Halls, and other institutions, met
at the ball on St. James's Back, and presented to Miss
Carpenter an address, in which they expressed the regret
occasioned by her meditated departure from England.
their earnest hope that her labours would be attended by
entire success, and aspirations for her safe return, at no
distant period, to her native England. Miss Car-
penter, who appeared to feel the kind expressions
of sympathy very much, replied in a feeling and
pertinent address, in the course of which she referred to
the strong sense of Christian duty towards the women of
India which had led her to undertake the journey to that
distant clime, and avowed her trust in Him who alone
could give success to any enterprise. Mies Carpenter
afterwards shook hands with those present, and presented
to each, as a token of parting remembrance, a copy of
the " Morning and Evening Meditations." On Monday
afternoon a much larger meeting was held in the lecture-
hall attached to the Lewin's Mead Chapel. The her. W.
James occupied the chair, and there were many ladies and
gentlemen of influence and position present. The rev. chair-
man presented to Miss Carpenter a splendidly bound Bible
and hymn-book, suitably inscribed, and also a purse of
money towards the funds of her school. It had been the
wish. he stated, of some ladies to have given to her some
ornament for her person ; but it had been subsequently
thought that it would be consonant to her feelings that
the presentation should take the form it bad assumed.
Mr. James also read a farewell address to Miss Carpenter.
Miss CLIZZ2MiIIi, in acknowledging the presentation.
spoke at some length, and expressed her gratitude to those
friends who had kindly presented her with the address,
Bible, and hymn-book.

TUE WAR WITH AMERICAN INDIANd.—The fol-
lowing despatch has been received at the headquarters
of the department of Missouri in the field :—" Detach-
ment of U. S. Troops, at the Dry Fork of the North
Fork of the Republican River, Sept. 25, 1868.—Colonel
Forsythe sends his love. He n badly wounded, but will
be able to travel to-morrow. Lieutenant Beecher, of the
Third Infantry, died of his wounds and is buried.
Lieutenant-Colonel Carpenter arrived here yesterday at 6
o'clock a.m. His promptness and celerity of movement
deserves credit. The scouts I sent from Fort Wallace met
on Beaver Creek, they having been driven back by the
Indians. I started them again, but they could not tied
the command of Oeneral Bradley, who did not reach the
Forks until yesterday. Forsythe's men fought despe-
rately. The details of his fight I leave for him. His
spirited and noble conduct encouraged his men. There are
few eases on record of more desperate fighting and con-
tinued endurance without food, except horseflesh, and
surrounded by the dead and dying. I cannot remove the
dead, but the doctors say I can remove the wounded
to-morrow to Fort Wallace. Colonel Forsythe estimates
the number of Indians at 600. He takes this estimate
from the judgment of old-experienced scouts. They
were Cheyennes, Arapahoes, and Sioux. Lieutenant-
Colonel Carpenter reports that he struck the trail' and
place where they had encamped, probably for two days
after leaving here, and the trails show that they are going
south-east toward Beaver Creek, He found the bodies of
fire ludian warriors, Cheyennes, about eighteen miles
from Forsythe's camp, evidently some of the killed in the
fight with Forsythe. There must have been at
seventy-five Indians killed or wounded at the lowest esti-
mate. Colonel Forsythe lost of his party five killed and
fifteen wounded, and all his horses. The following is the
list:—Killed—Lieutenant F. H. Beecher, Acting-Surgeon
Moore, F. W. Culver, Wm. Wilson, and Louis Farley.
Wounded—Colonel C. A. For she (twice), Win. Arm-
strong, C. B. Clarke, Barney Day, H. Farley, Richard
Gantt, John Haley, Frank Harrington, W. H. H. McCall,
Howard Martin, Thomas O'Donell, H. H. Tucker, Louis
McLaughlin, Harry Davenport, S. R. Davis.—! have the
honour to remain your obedient servant, HENRY U.
lii.NRILERD, Brevet-Colonel Commanding."
Teri THREE-CORNERED CONSTITUENCIES.—The
Nonconformist sheen that the minority clause of the Re-
form Bill app to seven counties—viz., Berk', Bucks,
Caudaidge,—Dorset, Hereford, Herts, and Oxford, each
of which returns three members. It will also come into
°legation in five boroughs,—viz., Birmingham, Iststls,
Liverpool, Glasgow, and Manchester, to which a
third number was assigned by the late acts, and
was further applied to the City of London, repre-
sented by four members. This will make a total
Of thirteen constituencies returning forty members,
which will be affected by the minority clause. The
Name constituencies returned, in 1866, thirty-live members
(twenty conservatives and fifteen liberals). Diving the
suppoiters of the government the full benefit of doubt-
ful contests, it seems probable that the teats affected by
the minority principle will he about equally divided, in
which ease the liberal party would benefit by the experi-
ment to the extent of five seata. This deduction, how-
ever, implias that they would have limn unable. if this
innovation bad not been made, to have gained a sent
during the present election for Burks, Bucks, and Oxford.
It thus appears that, so far as the more number of votes in
parliament 35 concerned, the minority clause will not pro-
duee any considerable change. •
THE EASTERN FIRTIERIES.—There bun been a
considerable improvement in the •iie and quality of the
the herrings landed et Great Yarmouth during the last few
days. Priam have varied very considerably from day to
day. The Lowestoft boats are now settling their accounts
at the close of a successful North Sea voyage, previously
to ornamenting the home fishery. Must of them have done
estremely well.
