RAIL WAY INTELLIGENCE.

LONDON AND NORTII.WUSTERN AND NORTH STAF-
FORDSHIRE COMPANIES.—We are informed that the
London and North-Western board have resolved to
resist the claim of the North Staffordshire Company
to have the Manchester through traffic pass over a
portion of the North Staffordshire Railway.
LONDON AND Nonzu-WESTERN.—The following
vote of thanks has been presented by the drivers and
firemen of the Camden Station to Mr. M'Connell, the
locomotive superintendent of the southern division of the
London and North-Western Railway, for the interest
he has taken in obtaining for them a gratuity for good
conduct. Testimonials of this character must at all
times be gratifying to the directors and shareholders
of a railway company, as they evidence a good feeling
between the employers and the employed—a feeling
which is, under proper regulations, sure to result in
efficient and economical management :
" Camden Station, Nov. 13, 1849.

" We whose names are undersigned, on the part of
ourselves and the whole body of enginemen and firemen
employed at the Camden Station of the North-Western
Railway, b.g most heartily to return to you our sincere
thanks for obtaining for us the gratuity that you have
been pleased to award to us. We take the opportunity
of respectfully stating, that it will be our constant en-
deavours, by our good conduct, to merit your approba-
tion and support.
(Signed on behalf of the whole body of enginemen
and firemen employed at the Camden Station),

ACCIDENT ON THE LANCASHIRE AND YORKSHIRE
RAILWAY.—LIVERPOOL, MOND•Y.—AR accident, fortu-
nately unattended by serious consequences, occurred
this morning to the eight o'clock up train from Liver-
pool. While stopping at the entrance of the Walton
tunnel it was run into by a luggage train, also from
Liverpool, with such force as to smash the first-class
carriages. Fortunately, beyond receiving some severe
cuts, the passengers in the train escaped suffering any
serious injuries. During the whole of the morning a
dense fog prevailed over the town and neighbourhood,
which may in some measure account for the occident.
The files of papers from South Australia reach to
the 28th of August. The money market was rather
tight, but relief was in a measure anticipated from the
payment of a dividend by the Burra Burro Mining Com-
pany, whose shares were quoted 165 to 170. The dis-
covery of rich veins of metal in other mines bad ex-
cercised some influence upon the prices of particular
shares, and Wheal Maria and South Grainger were
pi:nerties benefiting from those changes.
[ADVERTISEMENT.]—A certified Cure of Scrofula
by Holloway's Ointment and Pills.—The following certificate
from Mr- Alcorn, of Jerry's Plains, New South %Vales, was
forwarded to Professor Holloway by Mr. Pinkey, chemist, of
the same place. " This is to certify that my daughter, aged
seven years, was afflicted with scrofula for three years, and that,
after she had been attended by several respectable practitioners,
without success, I was induced to try Holloway's Ointment
and Pills, which remedies in about three months completely
cured her, and she is now in the best of health. This can be
verified by various persons in this vicinity, where I have resided.
for twenty-two years. (Signed) R. Alcorn. Jan. 1, 1849.'
