The Salisbury Herald states that the Bishop

with some of the oldest and the most influential families of
Dorsetshire.

Sir B. Hall, one of the Members for the borough
of Marylebone, has given notice that, on the third reading
of the London and Birmingham Railway Bill. be will move
a clause for the establishm,•nt of a station for passengers at
the Oval-road, Camden Town. We do not know what
reason the Directors have for objecting to this arrange.
ment (and from not having established a station there of
their own accord•they must have some reasons), but we are
sure that, if carried into effect, it would bti productive of
considerable convenience to those who reside at the extre-
mities of the northern and north-western suburbs ; and as a
stoppage of the trains takes place at that point even now,
for the purpose of attaching the locomotives, very little
additional delay need be caused. Of course, should the
London Grand Junction Railway ever be constructed, a
station must be made at that spot.—Railway Times.

FATAL CARRIAGE ACCIDENT.—OR Friday
evening an inquest was held before Mr. Higgs, at the
George the Fourth, Vauxhall. bridge-road, on the body of
Nancy Daniels, aged 75, who was killed by being run over
by a carriage on its return from Epsom races on the Derby
day. The carriage belonged to Mrs. Macavoy, No. 27,
Upper George-street, Bryanqon-square. Mr. John
Richard Crawley, No. 23, Henrietta-street, Cavendish_
square, said he was sitting on the box with the coachman.
Witness was a student at Middlesex Hospital. The coach-
man, whose name was John Peat, was quite sober at the
time the accident happened, and witness was quite sure he
used every endeavour to prevent it occurring. Several of
the jury were of opinion, from the evidence adduced, that
great blame was attributable to the coachman in not check-
ing the progress of his horses on first seeing deceased, and
that a verdict of manslaughter should be returned against
him. Mr. Higgs said that could not be done, alit was riot
proved that he was recklessly or furiously driving at the
time. Verdict, " Accidental death," with a deodand of
201. on the horses, and Si. on the carriage. The driver was
severely reprimanded.

FIRB.—The union workhouse at Tewkesbury
has been attempted to be Set on fire four times within the
last fortnight. Ia the flrit three instances, notwithstand-
ing the strictest investigation was immediately made, the
delinquent could not be discovered. On Tuesday last a
girl named Ann Ella, ahcut fiftuen years of age, belonging
to the parish of Boddington, and an inmate of the house,
was strongly suspected of placing a burning coal, wrapped
in a piece of rag, beneath one of the beds. On being
taken into custody she cJnfessed the crime, and bas been
committed to the borough gaol until the Sessions. The
chief damage sustained, in either case, has been the de-
struction of some articles of clothing and a trifling injury
to the furniture and floors of the house. There is strong
reason now to believe that the prisoner Ella, who was em-
ployed in the cooking kitchen under her mother, was the
guilty party in every instance.—Bristol Gazelle.
