FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT ON THE BLACYWALL RAIL-
WAY.—On Friday morning, shortly before twelve o'clock,
an accident of a most frightful nature, and which termi-
nated fatally, occurred on the Blackwell Railway, near
the West India Dock station. It appears that for some
time past a man named John Lakey, a stonemason, and
several other men, have been engaged in clearing out
the ditches which run alongside the railway at Poplar,
by the direction of the West India Dock Company. On
that part of the railway the dockyard is contiguous to it
for some distance, and to approach the ditches the men
had to walk upon the line. Yesterday moraing, at
twenty minutes to twelve o'clock, Lakey was proceeding
along the centre of the line between the two lines of
railway, in company with the foreman, to inspect the
ditch near the station, when the train which was
then due was perceived coming towards the West
India Dock station from Blackwell. The engineer
on the locomotive saw the deceased, and in-
stantly blew his whistle to apprise him of the
danger he was in. The unfortunate man turned round
and saw that the engine was close upon him, and in-
stead of stepping on to the line, out of the way of the
engine, he suddenly jumped upon the rails which the
train was on. The act was so sudden, that before the
engineer could stop the engine it struck him on the
breast as he turned round, and forced him down
upon the rail. The whole of the carriages which are
generally very numerous, passed over his head and chest
and killed him on the spot. The guards belonging to
the train instantly ran to the place, and beheld a
shocking spectacle. The head and face of the man
were cut into several pieces, and the brains were ex-
posed and strewn about the ground. His chest and body
were also cut open, and entrails were laid bare. His
legs were not injured, but the other part of his body
was literally smashed to atoms. A shell was obtained,
and the remains of the unfortunate man were collected
and placed in it, and removed to the dead house, in
Poplar, to await a coroner's inquest. The deceased
had been out of work for a considerable time, and had
only latterly obtained employment. He has left a wife
and five young children, who were entirely depending
on him for support.
BEN-NEVIS.—Up till within the last few days
(when mists returned), the weather for some time proved
singularly favourable for the ascent of this giant of the
mountains; and the clear sharp outline of Ben and its
neighbouring brothers was unmarred by a single passing
cloud. It fortunately happened, also, that a large
number of tourists had arrived, who enjoyed to its fullest
extent the grandeur of the view to be obtained from the
lofty peaks of Ben-Nevis. From ten to twenty ascended
daily, and no donbt they will long remember their suc-
cessful ascent, and will often dwell in fancy on the un-
rivalled scene extended at their feet, smiling under a sky
almost Italian in its softness and beauty.—lnverness

THURSDAY'S
STORM.—During the heavy shock on
Thursday, a man, named Catly, residing at Leytenstone,
Essex, went to an out-house to feed a calf, when both he
and the animal were struck by the electric fluid, and
wereinstantly killed. The stream by which he was
struck, judging by the time, was part of the discharge
which killed the poor man, Johnson, in West-street,
Whitechapel. At the same time, another man was
struck dead in Tyso-street, Bethnal-green. He seemed
at first only dazzled with the flash, and staggered on a
few paces, when he fell headlong, and was picked up a
corpse. A very scandalous sort of traffic is being
carried on in the case of the maa Johnson, in West-
street, whose person is exposed at a penny per head, to
the lovers of the hideous and the horrible. It is said that
the father, who is the exhibitor on the occasion, has al-
ready realised upwards of 71. by this indecent and heart-
less exhibition.
