Accmzcr or viz MIDLAND RAILWAY.—,'THIS
DAT.)—Thia morning an accident occurred which caused
great inconvenience to the suburban traffic by the running
off the line of some of the carriages at the Haverstock-hill
station at about 7 o'clock. It was some hours before the
line was sufficiently clear for the traffic to be resumed.
CROOKILAVEN, Ocr. 23, 7.20 A.M.—The Cunard
steamer Java is now passing Browhead signal station en
route for Queenstown.

At Huntingdon, a few days ago (says the Stam-
ford Mercury), a man picked up a parcel containing a .501.
note. Be restored it to its owner, a stranger, who re-
warded him by the present of one penny!
MELANCHOLY ACME:CT.—Two MEN SUFFO-
CArYn.—On Tuesday last the sloop Lady Isabella Bungles,
of Kirkcudbright, arrived at Burnfoot, Berwick, laden
with lime. The crew consisted of Thomas Roddy, master,
James Milligan, mate and James Moreland, apprentice,
all belonging to Kirkcudbright. On the morning
of Wednesday the owner, Mr. Williamson, grain
merchant, Kirkcudbright, sent a man of the name
of M'Cormick to Burnfoot to assist in discharging
reached

the cargo. On Thursday morning a report
Kircudbrigbt that the three men, Roddy, ]foreland, and
M'Cormick, had been found lying insensible in the cabin
of the sloop. Mr. Williamson at once despatched Drs.
Johnson and Hay to Burnfoot, and on their arrival they
found the rumour was only too correct. The man M'Cor-
'IAA was found to be recovering, and in the course
of tie day be was restored to nearly his usual
state of health. The other two men were found to
be quite unconscious. Mr. Williamson, who bad ac-
companied Drs. Johnson and Hay, returned to
Kirkeudhlight and sent a carriage down to Burnfoot,
and had the men removed to their homes. Roddy and
Moreland remained unconscious, gradually getting worse,
and both died on Friday night. It appears that the three
men slept on board the sloop on the night of Wednesday,
the hatches having been closed and fresh air excluded,
and that they had been overpowered by the fumes of
carbonic acid gas. The face of the master was cut and
bruised, evidently caused by hie having endeavoured,
while in a half-conscious state, to get to the hatches, and
fallen. The mate, Milligan, was fortunately not on board
on the night of Wednesday. Roddy leaves a wife and
small family ; Moreland was unmarried.—.4yr Advertiser.
MOVEABLE FEVER MOSPITAI.B.—The Express of
the 16th inst. contains an admirable suggestion by Mr.
Napper of Cranley, for dealing with the outbreaks of
contagious diseases which occasionally ravage the
most healthy districts. At present such patients
can only Le sent to the county hospital or to
the workhouse, when it happens that a sepa-
rate building has been erected for their recep-
tion. I'erroanent hospitals or contagions wards in many
healthy districts often fall to decay, so rarely are they
used. Moreover, they are utterly inadequate when an
epidemic comes, and, as at a Oultdford, the authorities
find it all but impossible to provide the moans
for segregation. Mr. Napper propose.. to esta-
blish moveable iron hospitals so constructed as to
take easily to pieces, and to be packed in vans. When re-
quired, they eau be despatched to the infected town or
village, at a moment's notice, and there set up. Tempo-
rary rites, often near the workhouse or county hospital,
could be • found without difficulty. The whole ex-
pense, together with the staff required, would be
readily met by the public authorities, under the
latest powers of the Sanitary Act, or by public Bub-
ecriptson, as the MS might be. We cordially endorse the
bone that this moat valuable migration will attract the
attention of the Board of IbialtK We commend it, also,
to guardians and the Poor-law Board, since nothing
would be easier than for the guardians of an extensive
district to unite in the perdition of wash an hospital,'{:
order to ob►iate the absurdity of building one in each
union, which may rarely U over Da rogiiimaL—)crisis
