SHOCKING ACCIDENT.

A very Aiding circumstance oectiti ed yesterday:
about twenty minutes before seven o'clock in the"
morning, two houses, NA. 33 and 34., in Donk:. •
street, near. Oreat Gerden-street, •Mile-End New""
.Town, suddenly fell to the ground, and buried in.
the ruins 3s persons. With the houses were lett out
to:poor people With small families: in the first betree
were five families besides lodgers, and in the second
about the same nunthere' 'ltaia7but justice to-say,
that the Surveyor of 'the diitein, as. well as the;
Landlord of the lremblea, gave notice to the insane '
bitanta, some VAC'Cki "'Ago, ku quit, as their lives were.
not thoaght :safe Vafiti .on Monday several of the
poor stifferers, iaeconsequence of that advice, looked
out for divellings ;term ive to, but failing of success,
'were under:the necessity of remaining where they
were.--,-As toot) as the neighbours recovered from
the alarm whiCh so dismal an accident occasioned,
they set to work to clear away the: rubbish, with
the laudable intention of saving as many lives as
possible. A peisbn of the name of Richards, was
the first .who relieved some of the unfortunate suf.
ferers from their. dreadful situation. The coil.
fusion of cries. aware the ruins, rendered it' almitit
impossible at first to discern the read Spot where
they lay. At length he round 'one Royston,
his wife and sou, wholsed 'occupied a room up
two pair of stairs ; 'they were all meth bruised,
and were sent immediately to the London Hospi.
NeXt he found four children, two- of
whom were seriously injured, and were 'sent to
the same hospital ; the 'other two had the good
fortuneao be screened from the mini by a piece of
tiMbei, and escaped unhurt; they were sent. 'to
Mile End Workhouse to he taken" care of. On
searching further, Richards found a female child.
about nine months old, between two pieces of dm.
ber, unhurt ; -the little innocent was laying on its
hack, playing with its cloaths, unconscious of any
danger. Site greeted her deliverers with smiles,
and was sent after the others to the workhons,'.
Farther assistance arriving, the iteerch uas conti.
nued with great ardour : a man rimed Box, hi;
wife, and three children; were traced by their cries
to the cellar, when they were dragged from the
window unhurt. It appears that this fatuity had
occupied the ground-floor, and had fi,d into the
cellar fur safety, on first hearing,..the *eras!). Two
old women were found, .one of the age of 90; and
the•other of 8o; they, occupied a back :room up two
pair of stairs. The former had been confined to
her bed seven months ; neither of•theris received the
least injury, and were sent to the workhetise.
.The most distressing part of this spedade wawa
poor .woman, who had lain in on. Sunday' fait ; both
herself and child wete materially injured. The
alarm of the women was so greet, that it is feared
her death will be the cansequence.
Before nine &cluck such exertion had been used,
that the whole of. the person's were found vs horn it
was.suppcsed were .missing ; .and, howevet mire.
culous it may appear, not one Of them was
found dead ; very ten' had their limbs broken. A
widow and her daughter, who dwelt in a back-room
up two pair of stairs, were among those most hurt;
also a man and Ns wife, who occupied a garret,—
When the accident happened, nearly all the people
were. in 'bed, consequently when they were taken
from the ruins they were entirely naked, and had
'nor•a rag to put on except what they obtained Irons
the humanity of
.the neighbours.
Oat of the' 35 persons who were flaUnd, ta only
were sent' to the tat.'npitai tours 'Tewi: 'Whitt were
dangerously hurt, and had friends, wished to be
carried to them. Those not so'foritieate were lodged
at the work house., It was -a lucky circumstance
that the party-wall between the two house; did not
give way, or many persons must inevitably have
perished.
