Victims of the Derby Day.

In addition to the accidents reported yesterday a number
of others occurred on the return home from the Downs.
The following were the more serious :—A young man who
had fallen out of a van was brought late in the evening to
Guy's Hospital in a dying condition, and died shortly after
his admission. The persons in the van apparently did not
notice the occurrence, for they drove on unconcernedly, and
were soon lost sight of. Nothing is known of the name or
address of deceased, or where his friends are to be found.
At 2 o'clock yesterday morning a labouring man named
John Huddle was found lying insensible in the roadway
outside the Balham Station. It was ascertained that he
had been run over and seriously injured. The injuries
being chiefly on his head he was unable to make any state-
ment, and his life is de4aired of.
At eight o'clock on Wednesday night two light carts came
vielently into collision in the Kennington-road. William
Vitch, the driver of one of them, was flung out on the
pavement, and received severe contusions, his left arm
being broken at the elbow. He was taken to St. Thomas's
Hospital.

An hour later a boy named Arthur Betch, residing in
the Old Kent-road, was passing near a costermonger's
truck when a cart came against it, upsetting it upon him,
and breaking his leg. He was conveyed to St. Thomas's
Hospital.

A gentleman while returning outside an omnibus from
Epsom at 10 o'clock on Wednesday night was struck by a
champagne bottle, thrown by the occupants of a carriage,
drawn by four grey horses.

Between Tooting and Ewell, a boy named Smith, em-
ployed in Lea.denhall-market, was standing on the footpath,
when he was struck by the shaft of a Hansom cab going at
a rapid rate, and knocked under the wheel, which passed
over him and broke his leg. He was removed by the police,
but tho cab continued its course.

At Tooting, also, a party of ladies and gentlemen, while
seated on chairs outside the iron gates of a large mansion,
were suddenly charged upon by a light waggonette. How
they escaped with their lives is a miracle, for two of the
chairs on which they sat were smashed up. Further mis-
chief was averted by the vehicle having its near wheel
wrenched off by a large and heavy carriage.
On the Downs various accidents happened. A man named
William Buckley, while endeavouring to get out of the way
of a carriage that was being driven too rapidly along, was
thrown to the ground and his ankle broken. He was sent
by rail to Guy's Hospital, where he now lies.

On Wednesday afternoon a girl named Jane Gibson, aged
four years, was knocked down while crossing the Newing-
ton-road by a brewer's dray and run over. She was taken
to St. Thomas's Hospital, where life was pronounced to be
extinct.

THE ENGLISH CHANNEL.—The quickest passage
on record from the Channel Islands to Southampton
was made on Wednesday by the South-Western Company's
paddlewheel steamship Normandy, commanded by Capt.
H. B. Harvey, when this noble vessel crossed from Guernsey
to the Needles in five hours and a half. The details of this
rapid run, as furnished by Capt. Harvey, are as follows :
The Normandy left Jersey, with her Majesty's mails, and a
full complement of passengers and cargo, at 7 a.m., Green-
wich time, arrived at Guernsey at 9.5, exchanged mails, pas-
sengers, and baggage, and left again at 9.25 for Southampton,
passed the Caskets at 10.35, hove the log, and found the
ship's speed to be 14.75 knots, or nearly 17 miles an hour, which
speed she maintained throughout the run, engines making
34 revolutions per minute, and the pressure of steam 231 b ;
passed the Needles at 2.55 p.m., telegraphed at Hurst Castle
at 3.5, and arrived in the Southampton docks at 4.35, being
only 9 hours 35 minutes from Jersey, including stoppages.
The passengers by the Normandy left Southampton by the
2.10 p.m. train, due in London at 7.43, being thus enabled
to reach the metropolis in less than 13 hours from Jersey,
and a little over 10 hours from Guernsey.
STRANGE, IF TRUE.—It was currently rumoured
in Darlington on Friday (says the Darlington Times)
that a man, named Ralph Morrell, well-known among the
lowest of the population of Darlington, had, while labour-
ing under a fit of insanity, made admissions connecting him
criminally with the sudden disappearance of a gentleman
named Richardson about five years ago. Mr. Richardson
was on a visit to Darlington Fair about that period, and was
seen late at night in the Mill Entry, near the river, but
was not seen alive afterwards. At that time sensation was
created by the mysterious circumstance, it being pretty
generally believed that foul play of some kind had been
used, and that the property the gentleman was thought to
have in his possession at the time had proved too strong a
temptation for some unscrupulous ruffians. Morrell, after
being taken to the Darlington Workhouse, has been re-
moved thence to the lunatic asylum at Sedgefield, where
he at present remains. It is expected he will recover in a
few days, and then it will be seen whether the affair will
assume a more serious aspect than it now presents.

It is generally believed at the Court of Vienna
that the Emperor Maximilian will shortly abdicate and
return to Austria, and that he will be restored by Francis
Joseph to the rights which he was obliged to renounce on
accepting the Mexican throne.
