RAILWAY AOCIDINT AT °RAMEY. —On Wednes-
day erresiag LA, some time before 10 o'clock, a goods
train hit the (Mutely Mathis ea the South•Weetern Rail-
way. On reaching Andover the engiee-driver discovered
that oely a portion of the carriages were attached to the
loosesotave. He shunted back for the remainder, ex=
to find them standing at the spot where they bad
debased Urifortunately, however, they had been pat in
steno.. When the train started from Grateloy, the breaks-
man left behind and Mr. Tare, the staiktamerater, WWI
to the engine-driver to stop ; but they were sot heard. Mr.
Tack, therefore, proposed to allow the carriages to run on
slowly after the traimwhich they could do, as the line slopes
gently all the way to Auden. He, the porter as the
staMoo, and the 6nskemas got into them end lifted the
break. There is only
_one line, the engine was emotes
with speed up the Mane from Andover, the detached
slowly demendleg is the apposite direction from
IGrate The two parte of the train came Into violent
collision io a cutting, near Moulton, midway betwesa there
places. The engine drove seven of the descending carriages
off the lino, smashing them to pieces. When it had stopped
the driver and porter, who were uninjured, got down.
Thu found the almman lying insensible nailer a winos
white had been *deed ever that on whisk hest. Mr. Tuck
we. afterwards discovered lying dead between two car-
Same. The wounded breakaman has been conveyed to
'Gay's Hospital, but the Injuries he has received are of such
a dangerous chancier that it I. not expected he will sur-
vive. Au inquest was held on the body of Mr. Tuck on
Friday before Mr. T. Pain, the coroner for Hants. Mr.
William T. Godson, the traffic Kuperintendeot of the line,
was examined as a witness. Having beard the other evi.
dence given at the inquest, he bad no hesitation in saying
that Mr. Tuck could have oommitted no greater mistake than
that of not keeping the detached portion of the tram at
Grateley until amistance had arrived. Tke jury returned a
verdict of " Accidental death." Mr. Tuck has left a widow
and a young family.

the hone, a 'minted animal, sod it commenced galloping
'manta the railway. The man in charge seised the hone
by the bead, but, unable to manage the animal, he was
obliged to relinquish his hold ; otherwise he would either
have been killed or seriously injured be being forced against
the railing at the side of the road. The hone, being thus
at liberty, dashed forward impetuously, smashed the gate
for foot peasengers, and also the poste, and galloped on to the
line, Fortunately the affrighted animal stumbled and fell
mice its knees at the very moment that the last carriage in
the train, the guard's van, passed. Only a few inches in.
