PEDESTRIANISM.

SAMUEL DRIVER AND J. DELANEY.—Notwithstand-
ing the continued incessant rain, these two men met
yesterday at the Green Man, Leytonstone, aad brought
their match of 150 yards to a conclusion, Delaney
staking 61. to Driver's 41., according to the articles.
Shortly after four the men appeared at the scratch, and
soon got off, the rain at the time pouring down in tor-
rents. They continued shoulder to shoulder till within
forty yards of the goal, when Driver put on a spurt, and
after great exertions lant.ed himself a winner by a bare
yard! The betting at starting was 3t02 on Delaney.

THE RECENT ACCIDENT ON THE SOUTH-EASTERN
RAILWAY.—CANTERBURYt 'SUNDAY. Nothing has yet
been done towards replacing the bridge over the river
Stour, which was forced down during the progress of a
luggage train over it on Friday, in consequence of the
waters not having sufficiently subsided. Owing
to the ac-
tivity already displayed by the contractors of the line, it is
expected that they will be able to-morrow to finish a foot-
path for passengers. If that can be accomplished, the
inconvenience of having. to get out of the train and
ride upwards of three miles round. the country will be
avoided. The engine still remains imbedded in the
field, bottom upwards, where it fell, and the whole of
the broken vans have not been removed ; but the
directors entertain sanguine hopes that during Tues-
day or Wednesday the bridge will be replaced and
the line re-opened. On Saturday a minute examine.
tion was made to ascertain the precise cause of the
occurrence, which completely satisfied the officials of
the line that tke excessive floods, and they alone, had
occasioned the mischief. The water had ascended to
such a height as to enter the apertures between tilt-
supports of the arch on either side, and having washed
away the mortar and cement of the uprights, had so
weakened the structure, that it was unable to bear the
weight of any train. Two passengers' trains, however,
had passed over it shortly before the luggage train was
due.
The tradesmen of Morpeth. closed their places of
business during the afternoon of Tuesday last, as a mark
of respect to the memory of the late Earl of Carlisle,
whose remains were interred on that day in the family
mausoleum at Castle llovrard.
