THE REMOVAL OF MR. RAMSHAY.
LivEarooi, Nov. 26.—The following letter was
received this morning, by Mr. Hull, the attorney on
behalf of the inquiry at Preston into Mr. Ramsbay's
conduct as Judge of the County Court :
"Duchy of Lancaster, Waterloo=bridge, Nov. 25.
" Sir,—l am directed to inform you that the Chancellor
of the Duchy of Lancaster has thought fit to remove Mr.
Ranashay from the office of Judge of the County Court
of Lancashire, holden at Liverpool.
"I am, Sir, your obedient servant,
" F. DAWES DANTERS.

"Mr. Frederick S. Hall, solicitor, Liverpool."
The new judge in this court, we are informed by a
correspondent, is Mr. Joseph Pollock, of Manchester,
at present judge of the Salford Hundred Court of
Record. Liverpool is fortunate in this selection of a
successor to Mr. Ramshay, Mr. Pollock, in addition
to high legal attainments, being remarkable for com-
bining with dignity and firmness a courteous de-
meanour.

THE RAILWAY ACCIDENT AT WEEDON.—The
sufferers by this distressing accident are progressing towards
recovery. The poor labourer who was in a state of con-
siderable danger on Tuesday has somewhat rallied, and ac-
counts from Wecdon up to five o'clock last evening state
that very little apprehension exists as to the termination of
all the cases remaining in that locality. The hairbreadth
escape of some of the passengers in the train is really
marvellous. Among the most remarkable was that of the
Marchioness of Conyngharn, who was returning to town
from a visit to her noble father, Lord Anelesey, at Beau-
desert. The Marchioness occupied a coupii of one of the
first-class carriages, and was accompanied by Mr. Blake,
a friend of Lord Anglesey, and by her Ladyship's femme de
chambre. When the collision took place, the Marchioness
and her maid were thrown forward with terrific force. The
head of the Marchioness came in contact with the frame-
work of the carriage, and the concussion was so severe that
for some moments her Ladyship lost all sensibility. Her face
is cut and bruised terribly, and the maid has also suffered
very severely. Mr. Blake escaped with a few contusions.
Captain Huish is recovering slowly, but has not left his
home since the accident. Captain Bruyeres, whose escape
from death was almost miraculous, his legs having been ac-
tually for a moment among the wheels, is quite recovered
from the shock, and, indeed, has not left his duties since the
occurrence.
