The Price of Gold.

The quotation of gold at Awls is about atLi
par, and the
sterling. On
short exchange on London is 25.20
comparing these rates with the English Mint
17s. 10d. per ounce for standard gold, it appears price
o
hatn-oildl3
about 1-10th per cent. dearer in London than in Paris: s
By advices from Hamburg the price of gold is 4221 per mark,
and the short exchange on London is 13.41 per £1 sterling.
Standard gold at the English Mint price is, therefore, about
2-10ths per cent. dearer in London than in Hamburg
The course of exchange at New York on London for bills at
CO days' sight is 140 to 146/ per cent., and the premium on
gold is 321 to 33 per cent. At these rates there is a profit
on the importation of gold from the United States.

[ADVERTISEMENT:I—HoIIoway's Ointment and Pills.--
Increasing Mortality,—When the dangers from diarrhoea
are so great and appalling as the weekly death list showa
it to be at present, it behoves every mother and nurse to
know that this Ointment rubbed upon the belly, aided by
moderate doses of Holloway's Pills, proves the most
simple. harmless, and effective remedy. Thousands of
children have been instantaneously saved by rubbing this
antidotal Ointment twice or three times upon the abdomen
after it has been fomented with warm water. This course
is the most practicable in children's bowel complaints
when there is a difficulty in exhibiting internal medicines,
and this treatment succeeds when sedatives and astringents
have been fruitlessly prescribed.

RAILWAY ACCIDENT.

Yesterday morning a fearful accident occurred on
the Great Northern Railway. At a place called
New England, about two or three miles from Peter-
borough, the company have extensive works. From
the sheds here the engines are often started on their
journeys, and the intricacy of the metals is such
that, in spite of every precaution, accidents are of
frequent occurrence. About half-past 4 o'clock
yesterday morning a pilot passenger engine started
from New England towards Peterborough, with a
driver, a fireman, and the guard of a passenger
train. Immediately afterwards it was followed on
the same line by a powerful goods engine. It was
N ery dark, a fearful wind was blowing, and it was
raining. It was impossible to look out, and the
igiobol do a
oernagsr. e ran
e into
shocke
d pilotis o enginewith a
pilotd
engine from its tender, and all three men fell off.
The guard, named Leek, a native of Doncaster, was
run over by the tender and killed instanta-
neously, his body being frightfully mangled ; but
the driver and fireman, whose names were Catley
and Chamberlin, escaped with injuries, which in
thecase of the fireman are serious. The pilot engine,
having neither driver nor fireman, dashed into the
station at the rate of nearly 40 miles an hour, and
coming up with a goods train, smashed the break
van to atoms. The unfortunate guard of the goods
train, whose name is Jones, had not time to escape
from the van, and was picked up with his skull
fractured and his arm and collar bone broken. He
now lies at the infirmary in a precarious state. Both
engines were thrown off the line, and the traffic on
the up line was impeded for more than three hours
by the accident. Under the superintendence, how-
ever, of Mr. Dance, the district agent, Messrs.
Johnson and Sacre, the engineers, and Mr. Smith,
the station master, the traffic was safely worked on
the single line until a clearance was effected. The
guard and fireman of the engine which caused the
accident escaped unhurt. The accident is now being
made the subject of searching investigation. Pend-
ing the inquest it would be unfair to offer any
eisn pre-
ferred.

THAMES.

A DESPERATE OFFENDER.—MichaeI Lynch, a well-
known thief, was brought up on remand before Mr. Part-
ridge, charged with violently assaulting Joseph Cummings,
a labourer, and breaking his leg.
Mr. Joseph Smith, solicitor, said a friend of his was in
court, whc could identify the prisoner as having attacked
him and stolen his watch,
A police constable said the prisoner was also wanted for
entering a shop and committing a robbery therein.
Mr. Partridge said there was only one charge entered on
the police-sheet before him, and he would hear that first.
It appeared from the evidence of Cummings that on the
21st of August last, he was in Dock-street, Whitechapel,
with a woman named Mary Ann Bryant. "He was not
sober and he was not drunk, but only half and half " Thi.
dtfinition 'was received with some derisive laughter. He
then proceeded to state that three or four men came up and
threatened him, and one of them hit him on the back of the
head and he fell. While he was on the ground with his leg
across the kerbstone a man jumped on it and broke it. He
never saw the man before, and was not certain whether the
prisoner was the man or not. He lost his cap and handker.
chief.

Mary Ann Bryant, who said she obtained a living by
hawking fruit in the streets, and had lived 20 years in one
place, deposed that the prisoner Lynch was the man who
knocked down the prosecutor, and then seized him by the
hair of the head.

Mr. Partridge—Now, describe in what way the prosecu-
tor was assaulted, and be very particular about it.
Witness—Lynch ran across the road, caught him by the
hair of the head, and knocked him down. He got up again,
and the prisoner gave him the leg and threw him. lam
cort tin Lynch is the man.
Evidence was given that the prisoner was several weeks
in custody whilo Cummings was in custody, and was even.
tually released on his own recognisance to appear and answer
the charge. He did not do so, and afterwards committed
revoral,daring robberies._ HeAvas apprehended on the night
of Monday the 23d vitt by Francis Kelly, 130 H, on a
charge-of stealing a-watch, -The prisoner had been since
remanded twice, and all the charges of.robbery and a- sauas
not being completei the prisoner was again remanded until
Tuesday next. • •

RAILWAY ACCIDENT.

Yesterday morning a fearful accident occurred on
the Great Northern Railway. At a place called
New England, about two or three miles from Peter-
borough, the company have extensive works. From
the sheds here the engines are often started on their
journeys, and the intricacy of the metals is such
that, in spite of every precaution, accidents are of
frequent occurrence. About half-past 4 o'clock
yesterday morning a pilot passenger engine started
from New England towards Peterborough, with a
driver, a fireman, and the guard of a passenger
train. Immediately afterwards it was followed on
the same line by a powerful goods engine. It was
eery dark, a fearful wind was blowing, and it was
raining. It was impossible to look out, and the
goods

fractured and his arm and collar bone broken. He
now lies at the infirmary in a precarious state. Both
engines were thrown off the line, and the traffic on
the up line was impeded for more than three hours
by the accident. 'Under the superintendence, how-
ever, of Mr. Dance, the district agent, Messrs.
Johnson and Sacre, the engineers, and Mr. Smith,
the station master, the traffic was safely worked on
the single line until a clearance was effected. The
guard and fireman of the engine which caused the
accident escaped unhurt. The accident is now being
made the subject of searching investigation. Pend-
ing the inquest it would be unfair to offer any
opinion as to the cause of the disaster, but it is not
unlikely a charge of culpable neglect may be pre-
ferred.

CRIMINAL C OURT (This Day,)

OLD COURT.
BURGLA.RY.

Charles Wright, aged 28, fitter, was indicted for bur-
glariously entering the dwelling-house of David Lyon,
Arundel-square, Islington, with intent, &c.
On the 28th of October the prosecutor and his wife were
awoke from their sleep by hearing a noise of breaking of
glass, and soon after they heard the window on the landing
raised, and afterwards shut down again, and then some one
proceed down stairs. On the prosecutor getting up and
proceeding to the drawing-room he there found the
prisoner hiding behind the sofa. The prisoner
had not, owing to the rapidity with which he was followed,
time to remove anything. A police-constable was sen for,
and he was given into custody. The prisoner's defence was
that he was so drunk that he did not know what he was
doing when he entered the prosecutor's house. He further
said it would be most ridiculous for him to have entered
the house without lucifer matches it he had intended to have
committed a robbery.
The jury found the prisoner guilty.
No former conviction being proved,
The Recarder sentenced him to nine months' imprison-
ment with hard labour.
