On Wednesday afternoon, about half-past four o'clock,
a sad accident occurred at the new building at
Osborne. It appears that some workmen were removing a
centre under one of the arched passages of a very consider-
able portion of the building now in progress, and it is sup-
posed that owing to something slipping, one end of the centre
or framework on which the arch was formed acted as a lever
under the arch, and raising it, caused the displacement of the
materials of which it was composed, and the weight of which
falling on a scaffold below it, precipitated the whole to the
ground, together with some of the workmen who were
engaged upon it. The principal foreman of bricklayers, who
was on the arch at the time giving directions to his men, for-
tunately escaped ; but we regret to learn that three of the
labourers are injured• L-one man named Blake very severely
on the head, a second named Gale has his leg broken, and
the third named Morris has two of his ribs fractured. Her
Majesty and his Royal Highness Prince Albert, on the alarm
being given, hastened to the spot, and gave immediate direc-
tions that the best surgical assistance should be sent for, and
everything possible to alleviate their sufferings should be
provided tbr them. Mr. Weedon, of East Cowes, and Mr.
Cass, of West Cowes, quickly arrived, and did all they
thought the cases admitted of. We regret that the report
of the medical men yesterday morning was, 'that then con-
sidered Blake is in considerable danger, but that the other
two men are doing well.

lightful, and always so crowded. The performances last

performance on Tuesday had acquired for him. A dire.--
tissement, in which a new pas. entitled La Sl' wonian, was
produced, for Mademoiselle/ Rosati and M. Paul Taglioni,
and which bids fair to rival the Cracovienne in popuiaiiry
the last act of La Fa'orita, with Gardoni and Sanchioli ;
and the superb ballet of Corolla. The house was crowded to
excessia every part. Among the elite of the beau monde present
