CoLi../stoN ON THE LANCASHIRE AND YORK-
SHIRE RAILWAY _Yesterday morning, as the Yorkshire
mail on the above line, consisting of engine, tender, and 11
carriages, was approaching Rochdale, and when near the
Bellfield:Print Works,it ran into a coal train which was on the
main lino, and which was being shunted at the time on to a
aiding belonging to the Thissleford Colliery. Owing to the fog
the driver of the mail train had been unable to descry the
signal, which was properly up at the time. As soon as he
saw the signal, on his approaching the coal train, he re-
versed his engine, and had the breaks put on, with a view
to lessen the force of the collission, which he now saw was
inevitable, as much as possible. The engines met with a
tremendous force, one going over the side of the line, and
the other being raised into a newly perpendicular position.
Several of the passengers were injured, but all were able to
proceed on their journey. The guard of the passenger
train was seriously injured about the temples. The follow-
ing is a list of the persons injured :—James Fox, timber
merchant, Ristrick, Huddersfield, age 47 ; Thomas Hone,
cattle dealer; Richard B. Tobin, Hull, emigrant; Captain
Moon, Knottingley ; James Thornhill, Liverpool ; M. Ma-
bony, Dublin; Mr. Eland, farmer, Laxton, Howden;
James Cooper, midshipman.—Manchester Examiner.

[ADVERTISEMENT.j—Rarey's Horse and Cattle Improv-
ing Food is equally adapted to improve the stamina of
ill-
conditioned Horses, Cows, Bullocks, Calves, Sheep, and
Pigs. It causes no extra expense, as it contains far more
and better nourishment than its cost of lid. per feed sup-
' plies in corn and hay; hence ensures an actual saving in
the keep. But its principal advantages are a great improve-
ment in the digestive functions, the stamina and general
condition of horses enabling them to perform far more
labour without getting distressed. It imparts new vigour
to sick, debilitated, or old apparently worn-out horses, and
it puts rapidly the finest flesh on cattle generally, and im-
proves the milk in cows, as it enables them to extract the
entire nourishment out of everything they feed on. Rarey

greatest transparent power. The great advantage derived
from this invention is, that vision becoming impaired is
preserved and strengthened, and very aged persons are

power, and they do not require the frequent changes to the
dangerous effects of further powerful assistance. Persona
