ANOTHER DREADFUL ACCIDENT ON THE LON-
DON AND BIRMINGHAM RAILROAD.—Between ten `and
even o'clock on Wednesday night, considerable alarm was
excited amongst the night, gang of miners and fillers em-
ployed in the shaft No. 2, of the London and Birmingham
Railroad, on the north-east side of Primrose-hill, by the
falling in of a quantity of earth, weighing between seven
and eight hundred weight, which buried underneath its
fragments one of the miners, named George Fuller, a re-•
markably fine athletic young man, 21 years of age. It
appears that the workmen had undermined, in the usual
manner, a mass of earth at the extremity of the excavation,
and were about striking away the mounds of the soil called
legs, which support it preparatory to a fall, when the in-
spector, who superintends the operations of the miners to
prevent their heedlessly incurring danger, heard a peculiar
cracking sound, which in general immediately precedes a
' fall, and instantly gave the alarm for the men to retire to
a place of safety. The workmen promptly obeyed, and
*escaped injury, with the exception of the unfortunate man
Fuller, who hesitating for a moment, the ponderous load
fell upon him and crushed him to the ground, completely
burying him underneath it. Hu was extricated as speedily
as possible, and conveyed without delay to the North Lon-
don Hospital. He was found to be desperately bruised ;
his ribs were severely crushed, and he had likewise sus-
stained very serious internal injury. Hopes are, however,
entertained of his surviving.

11b. of dry bacon, a quartern loaf of excellent bread, 11b.
of salt, and a pint of cider, for ls. In 1813 the same ar-
ticles would have cost 3s. 2d.—Western Luminary.

IlmritYEN'S CAsk,—Thisinveiti,'ation was proceeded with
yesterday at the Club-house, Kildare.. An immense number of
sporting gentlemen were in attendance, and a chain of the most
interesting evidence was produced by Lord Miltown, with a view
to remove any doubt of the identity of the filly Caroline and the
horse, Leinster. The Stewards have prevented the publication of
thfi proceedings until the decision is conie to, which will be declared
at t,velve o'clock this day:—Dublin Evening Post of Tuesday.
The Club has -published the folloviing •decision on the above
case Having most carefully examined the evidence produced
I,pfore.us, we are of opinion, that in reference to .Leinster and Old
Bill, as also to Caroline and Ilecassine, a use of identity has bee:a
proved, and we - corisidex Mr. Ruthven's refusal to produce those
horses for examination here, as conclusive of this facts of substitu-
tion alleged against him. We are, therefore of opinion that neither
Caroline nor Leinster arc entitled to any stakes in the races for-
which' they may nave come in first ; that the seeend horses in those
races -should be deemed the winners; that the 'hots should go ac-
cordingly, except in the match between Caroline and Fusileer, in
which the bets arc off. In conclusion, -we foci imperatively called
unon to remark, that in- consequence of Mr. Ilutliven's withdrkwal
of his name frean the, .Turf Club, it does not •beeotne a part of our,
Painftil ditty to reilArm*nel to the Club any further proceedings in
this matter..--Signaby John C. Westenra, John Maher, and Lord
steWards•of the Club.
