SCOTCH CHURCH I*TELLIGENCE.—TO be freely
presented to a free kirk congregation in the Isle of Skse,
the use of a free church, situated in a remarkable fine, deep,
dry, commodious gravel-pit, capable of holding two hundred
persons. The proprietor of the pit, in his Christian tender-
ness towards the spiritual wants of his fellow-men, of his
own will grants the above site for a place of worship ; a
place is no manner disfigured by the Popish mummeries
that, to the shame of the age, have latterly been creep-
ing in upon the land ; but a church of the true
primitive beauty of the churches of the early
fathers, inasmuch as it has the sky for a roof, the earth
for seats, and all the winds of heaven for visitors.--
Apply to Lord Macdonald, proprietor. In Canobie, Dum-
friesshire, a remarkably fine piece of heath, commodiously
situated on the south side of a hill, capable of containing a
congregation of five hundred persons on their legs and with-
out umbrellas. The proprietor believing in the primitive
meaning of the word " church 7—that it signifies not a
building, but a congregation, does, in such sense, graciously
permit the erection (that is, the congregation on their legs

COLLISION THE

sE .nAzlerL:
WAY.—On Wednesday evening, as thßeßti train from Manchester to Leeds was passing near the Blue
Pits station, between Manchester and Rochdale, a pilot-
engine came up behind the train, which was a very heavy
one,eionveying a large number of gentlemen who had been
attending the half-yearly meeting of the Manchester and
Leeds Company, held the same day at Manchester. The
engine, which was behind its time, approached the train at
great speed, and a violent collision was the consequence. The
shock was felt throughout the whole train. The two last
carriages, both first-class, were considerably smashed, and
the majority of the passengers were snore or less stunned,
and several of them had their faces cut with glass, which
flew in all directions. One of the carriages was " The
Tourist" pleasure carriage, which was glazed all round and
also at the top, so that the passengers in that carriage suf-
fered moat severely from the broken glass. The panels of
the carriages were driven outwards, and the connecting
chain of one of them was broken, the buffers being forced
upwards and through the hind part of the next carriage.
After a delay of about ten minutes the train was enabled to
proceed.
TROON RAILWAY.—The first train conveying pas-
sengers along this line was run on Monday last. The route
