the fences they were bound to take notice of them
and to repair them. And the best evidence that
they did so is this—that they have gone to consi-
derable expense in putting up a good new fence, so
as to prevent the possibility of an accident of this
kind ever occurring again from such a cause.' Now,
gentlemen, a railway company, in taking over a
railway from another company and in undertaking
the responsibility of working it, is bound to see
through its own officers that it is in a safe condition
in all respects, according to the mode in which it
is worked, and—irrespective of any Government in-
spection which may have taken place—to main-
tain it and improve it from time to time, and you
have heard from Mr. Sinclair, in his evidence, that
he did go on the line, on the part of the Great
Eastern Company, as was his duty, and that his
inspection was made previous to mine.
" A railway is a complicated concern, requiring
constant attention and supervision from month to
month, from day to day, and from hour to hour.
Those only who have charge of it can only be re-
sponsible for the safety of the public using it. The
doctrine which the learned gentleman has laid
down, besides being entirely erroneous, has a most
dangerous tendency, because it would absolve rail-
way companies from their legitimate responsibi-
lities. Parliament, taking a contrary view, has
always wisely abstained from permitting Govern-
ment interference in the management of railways,
and principally for this very reason, that responsi-
bility might not be shifted from the shoulders of
those who alone are in a position to undertake it."

part of the railway company, the coroner summed

It will be seen that on the west and north the
capital is threatened and its communication cct off.
Cerra will undoubtedly pass on to Cointepeque to
aid the Indians, who will gladly nalere to him, and
thence to San Vicente, where there is a complete
disaffection. If this be done, the only department
really under General Barrios is that of the capital,
for San Miguel will undoubtedly declare in favour

" San Salvador itself is a strong position, and can
easily be defended. The streets around the plaza
are barricaded, the people are rapidly leaving, and
General Barrios has some 2,500 men there, des
may be (or may not be) reliable. The approaches
to San Salvador are easily defensible (the Barranca
or ravine of Guaramul and the declivities of Abele.
and Milingo), but General Barrios has no force in
either. He seems to have determined to confine
himself to the plaza of the capital. Meantime he is
without resources, except the monthly assessment
on those who remain, and the sales he can make of
some confiscated goods. It is probably the inten-
tion of General Carrera to surround the capital, not
to attack it, to cause the whole country to pro-
nounce, and shut General Barrios up in San Salva-
dor alone, occupying the port of Libertad also pos-
sibly, or at any rate the road to it ; if so, and no
sortie or attack on Carrera's forces is made by
General Barrios, it is hard to understand how he
can maintain himself another month.
" There are many who will regret deeply the
overthrow of President Barrios. Individually he has
many warm friends among the people of Central
America, and the wholesome reforms he has ini-
tiated in the admiuistration of affairs in Salvador
(not the least important of which was to check the
influence of the priests by making them amenable
and subordinate to the civil power) will not soon be
forgotten. The rock upon which Barrios split was
his Minister Irungary ; a man without another
friend in Central America ; a sly, sneaking, mischief
maker ; an unprincipled adventurer from Guate-
mala, whence he had been banished; a man with a
character so bad that even his family, his wife and
children living still in Guatemala, will have, and
have had, no intercourse with him. What could be
expected from a Minister with such a character but
ruin and disgrace. It is stated on very good autho-
rity that Carrera had said, if he caught Barrios and
Irungary, he would send the former to Guatemala
and give him the freedom of the city, but the latter
he would hang on the highest tree he could find
around San Salvador.
" There is no news of consequence from the other
States. Nicaragua had despatched a force to invade
Honduras, otherwise all is quiet. I also under-
stand that General Martinez, the worthy President
of Nicaragua, in view of the success of Carrera in
Salvador and Cerna in Honduras, is about to recall
his troops from the frontier and disband them,
that their labour may be made available in plant-
ing cotton, the season for which is just approach-
ing."

The Jury returned the following verdict :—" We
find unanimously that John Dennis died from in-
juries received on the Lynn and Hunstanton Rail-
way on tip) 3d of August, in consequence of an ac-
cident caused by a bullock having strayed upon the
line. We are also of opinion that the accident was
owing to the insufficiency of the fences and the
neglect of the same by the Great Eastern Railway
Company ; that the driver and guard of the train
to which the accident occurred acted to the best of
their ability and in accordance with the instruc-
tions issued to the company's servants. The Jury
strongly recommend that the carriages used by the
company should be more frequently subjected to
close examination. We are further of opinion that
Captain Tyler, the Government inspector, was per-
fectly justified in passing the line in September
last."

THE NAVY.
The Royal yacht Victoria and Albert, Captain
his Serene Highness Prince Leiningen, arrived and
came into Portsmouth harbour at'4 p.m. yesterday
from Antwerp, whither she had conveyed her Ma•
jesty and the Royal Family.
The annual inspection by the Lords of the Ad-
miralty was commenced at Devonport on Wednes •
day by Rear-Admiral Charles Eden, C.B. He, in
company with the Controller of the Navy, `Rear-
Admiral Thomas Spencer Robinson, went on board
the training-ship Impregnable, 78, Capt. Francis
M. Tremlett, and her tender, the sloop Squirrel, 8,
Lieut. Arthur H. Wright, both in Hamoaze, when
the boys were exercised at the sails and guns. Sub-
sequently Vice-Admiral the Hon. Sir Frederick
William Grey, K.C.8., Admiral Robinson, and the
Director of Engineering Works, Colonel Godfrey
Thomas Greene, visited the new long dock in the
Devonport yard, the works of which were com-
pleted by the contractors about two months since.
The dock proper is enclosed by a pair of iron gates,
but, between them and Hamoaze there is a apace of
50ft., the outer part being protected from the sea by
an iron caisson. The sea can be excluded from the
the dock by the caisson only, in which case the
length of the dock is increased 50ft. There is at
present inside the caisson a quantity of mud and
rubbish ; when this is removed the dock will be
ready for use. The new long dock is constructed
on the sites of the old docks Nos. 2 and 3,
which were one inside the other. It is 437 ft. long
over all and 415 ft bin. below, and can take in the
Warrior class of ships: On the arrival of the Agin-
court, which is larger than the V? arrior, she will
probably be placed in this dock. The sheer hulk
moored outside will, it is said, be fitted with a steam
capstan, for the purpose of hauling ships into and
out of the new long dock. From the dockyar
Sir Frederick Grey proceeded to Keyham steam
yard, where, between 1 and 3 o'clock in the after-
noon, he mustered the men belonging to the Steam
Reserve, who are commanded by Capt. William
Edmonstone, C.B. His lordship next went on
board the training-ship Implacable, 24, Comman-
der S. B. Dolling, and the receiving-ship Canopus,
8, Capt. Charles H. May, and inspected the crews
of both. When landing at the dockyard Sir Fre-
derick examined the new lifeboat constructed by
Mr. Turner, master shipwright of Woolwich yard,
which had been sent to Devonport to be tested.
The paddle-wheel steam-yacht Enchantress, 1,
Master-Commander J. E. Petley, from the Channel
Islands and Dartmouth, arrived at Plymouth yes-
terday morning. Instead of landing at Devonport
dockyard or Keyham steamyard his Grace the
Duke of Somerset proceeded at once to New Pas-
sage. Thence he and his colleagues, the other
Lords of the Admiralty, obtained an easy access to
the Devonport park, 'where they went in order, if
possible, to settle the question of a site for naval
barracks.
The screw steam corvette Brisk, 16, Capt. John
W. Luce, from the West Coast of Africa, last from
Portsmouth, arrived in Plymouth Sound yesterday
morning.
The officers composing the Ordnance Select Com-
mittee of Woolwich Arsenal have been engaged at
the proof butt during the week in order to test the
Broadwell breach-loading principle, which they
have had under consideration for some months past.
As previously stated, this system consists of a pecu-
liarly shaped self-acting gas ring or valve, which
during the former trials was placed in the wedge
or breech block of the gun, the position and shape
of which Mr. Broadweil has since changed. Tee
chief object of this week's trials, it is stated, was to
test the advantages of the alteration. The gas,ring
is now fitted behind the bore, and acts against a
bearing in the face of the breech block. The intention
of the inventor in making this alteration appears to
be to improve the facility of its application to guns
not constructed expressly for its use. The issue
of the trials is pronounced exceedingly satisfac-
tory, and, according to the opinion freely given at
their termination, the merits of the system were
fully established, in so far, at least, as it is applica-
ble to guns of a calibre equal to an 18-pounder, with
which it had been tested. The method is now to
be tested in a similar manner with the 110-pounder
or larger guns. An important feature in the inven-
tion is, as in the case of a common steam valve, that
the greater the pressure the tighter the breech be-
comes closed against the escape of gas. This justi
iies the opinion Ole SUbt.C.pt n' • *". "

was removed to the entrance of the harbour, at'nik

in deepening the river at the berth which is in-
tended to be occupied by the iron frigate Achilles
as soon as she has been undocked.

arrived on Sunday last ut Plymouth, left the Sound

THE LONDON COAL TRADE.

-
The quantity of coal received at the port of Lon-
don during the month of July last from the various
railways having access to the metropolis has ex-
ceeded the quantity for the corresponding month of
1862 by no less than 16,818 tons 18cwt. The supply
for the month just ended reaches 126,273 tons
against 109,455 tons 2cwt. for July, 1862. The
London and North Western has conveyed 59,747
tons sewt.; Great Northern, 33,383 tons Bcwt. ;
Midland, 11,665 tons 12cwt. ; Great Western, 10,68 S
tons ; Great Eastern, 8,876 tons 10ewt. ; South.
Western, 1,552 tons Bcwt. ; Chatham and Dover,
309 tons 17c wt. ; and Tilbury and Southend 71.
tons. The tonnage for the whole year ex-
hibits a great increase. For the seven months of
the present year the entries show 927,545 tons 7
cwt. against 775,850 tons llcvy t. for the same period
of 1862, or an increase of 151,694 tons 13ewt. The
Grand Junction Canal brings 835 tons for July
against 534 tons for July, 1862, but this year's
traffic has declined 839 tons. The sea-borne supply
has declined this month, as it has done throughout
the year. Last month 259,817 tons came to
hand, and, as compared with that of the same
period last year, there is a decrease of
9,591 tons. From Newcastle, 87,644 tons have
arrrived in 227 ships; Sunderland, 66,132 tons
in 157 ships ; Hartlepool and West Hartlepool,
52,715 tons, 193 ships; Seaham, 22,619 tons, 91
ships ; Middlesborough, 6,536 tons ; Blyth, 285
tons, 1 ship ; Scotch, 2,460 tons, 13 ships ; Welsh,
13,446 tons, 29 ships ; Yorkshire, 3,806 tons, 38
ships ; 320 tons, 1 ship ; 2,493 tons of small coal,
and 1,360 tons of cinders. From the Ist January
to the 31st July of the present year 1,837,644 tons
were imported in 5,429 ships; and in the corre-
sponding period of 1862 1,922,581 tons in 5,911
ships, being a decrease of 483 ships and 94,937 tons.
This decline is more than counterbalanced by the
extra tonnage brought by the railways, and from
all sources this year we have had 2,751,022 tons
7 cwt., as compared with 2,715,153 tons llewt. for
the first seven months of 1862.

COLONEL LINDSAY.-It will, Without doubt, be
in the highest degree satisfactory to the members of tha
volunteer force and to the public generally, to know that
Colonel the Ron. C. 11. Lindsay has passed two good nights
and is progressing as favourably as possible.
Photographs are simply the effect of light on iodide of
silver. Defects of manipulation have been remedied, and
perfection produced. The same with Herring's magnetic
brushes and combs, which are now so perfected that they are
unfailing in restoring the colour to grey hair, and eradicat-
ing the agonies of tic-doloreux and nervous headache...-.
