HORRIBLE DEATII.—The Rev. Dr. J. George Gor-
don, formerly of Sidney Sussex College, Cambridge,
and Trinity College, Dublin, Principal of the Collegiate
Institution, Notting-hill-terrace, has been killed on the
London, Brighton, and South Coast Railway, and a verdict
of " Accidental Death" returned by the jury empanelled to
inquire into the circumstances. The melancholy occurrence
took place on Friday last, at the Gipsy-hill- station, Norwood,
on the London side of the Crystal Palace. It appeared that
the rev, doctor mounted the steps of a carriage when a train
had begun to move out of the station, and a porter imme-
diately signalled him to get down, informing him that it
was not the train by which he had said he wished to travel.
The porter trial to remove him, and in doing so they fell
together, the porter on the platform, and the clergyman on
the metals over which the train was passing. He was seri-
ously injured, and having been conveyed to Guy's Hospi-
tal died there. The porter, it is said, had a very narrow
escape.
FATAL CRINOLINE ACCIDENT.—Yesterday an
inquest wes held by Dr. Lankester, at the Princess
Royal, Hereford-road, Westbourne-grove, on the body of
Mrs. Hannah Maria Grant, aged 61, the widow of a colonel
lately serving in the Indian army. Mrs. Elizabeth Dundas,
22, Hereford-road North, said the deceased had lodged with
her about five years, and her daughter lived with her. On
Thursday last witness was called to the drawing room about
half-past eleven o'clock, and on going there she found de-
ceased in flames, which her daughter was trying to extin-
guish, in doing which her clothes caught fire, and she was
so burnt as to be unable to attend the court to give evi-
dence. The flames were finally extinguished, but the de-
ceased was so severely burnt that she died in a few hours.
Deceased stated that she was standing with her back to the
fire looking at a bird which had escaped from the cage,
when her dress, which was distended by a large crinoline,
caught fire. She tried with a pair of scissors to cut away
the parts in flames, but could not do so. The coroner, in
his summing up, strongly condemned the dangerous practice
of using crinoline. They returned a verdict of accidental
death.
RIVAL EDITORS.—A country newspaper thus
"sews up" the editor of a rival journal :—" The
editor of the Mankten Smasher seems to be much exercised
about the tone of our paper. Did any of our readers ever
