ALARMING OCCURRENCE ON THE
NORTH LONDON RAIL OVA E

On Saturday an accident took place on the line
of the North London Railway, near Camden station, •
by which an engine and train were thrown off the
line. It appears that the down train from Fen-
church-street left that station at its usual time, five
o'clock, on Saturday evening, drawn by No. 17
engine, driven by John Savage, an old and experi-
c"ced driver. The train proceeded as usual until
alter its arrival at the Caledonian-road station, on ,
the western side of which is situated the cattle
sidings and layers for cattle brought up to the New
Cattle-market. At the time the train had reached
this point a very fine heifer belonging to one of the
salesmen escaped and made its way down the line
towards the Camden station. The darkness of the
night prevented the driver seeing any great dis-
tance, and on the arrival of the train within about
seventy or eighty yards of the bridge which crosses
the King's-road at St. Paul's-terrace the engine
came into collision with the animal, dashing it 4
to the ground, and the engine and train passing
over it, cut-it in pieces. The result of the shock was
to throw the engine and tender off the line, and
although the steam had been shut off it dashed
along some 40 or 50 yards, and, fortunately,
when within about 30 feet from the bridge
referred to, dashed down the embankment
some 16 or 17 feet, followed by two of the cariages,
and become most fortunately deeply imbedded in
the earth. The two carriages immediately following
the engine were much snattered, and the former
had one end completely thrown up into the air. It
is stated that there but two men passengers in this
first carriage, and they were much contused. In
the second carriage there were several women and
one with a child in her arms, who were much shaken
while the other passengers were more or less con-
tused and bruised. The down express, which
leaves Fenchurch-street at a quarter-past five,
• was due within two minutes at the Camden-
town station. Pitt, the guard of the disabled
train, ran back w ith all speed to place fog signals
cn the line, and the telegraph had only just time to
. communicate what had happened to the Caledonian-
road station, when the express arrived and was
stopped. Information of the occurrence was at
once telegraphed to the Camden station of the Lon-
don and North-Western Company, and Mr. Henry
Chubb, the sceretary, Mr. Adamson, locomotive
superintendent, and other officials of the North-
Western and North Lo-idon Companies, with large
numbers of engineers and workmen, were speedily
on the spot. It was then found that the rails of
the down line were torn up for a considerable dis-
tance. The passengers having been got out the men
set to work to remove the embedded engine and
carriages. The carriages were got up on the
line
during the night, but the engine and tender, all in
one, weighing some 25 tons, had become so deeply
embedded in the earth, and so low down the bank,
that it was not until about four o'clock yesterday
afternoon that, with the additional aid of two
powerful engines, it was got up on to a siding.

THE CUSTOMS.

The amount of Customs' revenue collected during the
month of October was £40,276 Bs. 10d. In the correspond-
ing month of 1857 the receipts amounted to f 040,310 15s. 6d.
There is, therefore, a slight decrease of £34 6s. Bd. in the
revenue for the month. During the ten months ended
the 31st of October 1857, the Customs' revenue was
£423,522 13s. 9d. ; during thn same period of 1858,
£446,005 ls. 11d., which is an increase of £22,482 Bs. 2d. in
favour of the present year.

IMPORTS.

Cotton Piece Goods—The import market con-
tinues in an improved and active state, the market
for grey goods having been particularly very brisk
during the fortnight : and the prices of several
descriptions of grey goods have further advanced.
Grey shirtings are scarce and have advanced ; T
cloths, red ends, are much inquired for ; grey
jaconets, low, are in favour at advanced rates ; and
grey madapollams have also shared in the improve-
ment of prices.
Bleached and Fancy Goods.—The prices of
bleached goods are maintained, and this description
of goods is in demand. Bleached jacconets, low to
medium, are very scarce ; bleached shirtings con-
tinue in active demand ; while in bleached mada-
pollams there have been few or no transactions.
Yarns, both mule and water, especially of the
lower counts, have improved in price, and are in

demand. Coloured yarns have undergone no altera-
tion in value.

EXPORTS.

Cotton.—Since the last unfavourable advices from
Liverpool, there has been a decline in the prices of
this staple ; and the market appears to be dull.
Oil Seeds.—These also have been affected by the
latest home advices, and linseed has declined as
well as rape. Linseed is scarce, and the prices are
unaltered.

NAPLES.

The Ost Deutsche Post of Vienna quotes a letter
from Nice, stating on what it thinks good authority
that the Russian government having applied to the
King of Naples for permission to establish a coal
depot at Brindisi, the latter has 'peremptorily re-

fused his consent. The letter attributes the follow-
ing words to the King of the Two Sicilies, ad-
dressed to the Russian minister at Naples, who had
been reminding his Majesty of the friendly relations
which have always subsisted between the courts of
St. Petersburg and Naples : " My veneration and
friendship," said the King, " for the Emperor
Alexander is as sincere as that which I felt for the
Emperor Nicholas, but as to policy the case is dif
ferent. I cannot explain to myself the tendencies
of a government which courts Piedmont and also
offers to join hands with Naples. These two things
cannot subsist together. A station at Villafranca
and a station at Brindisi are quite incompatible es
regards the principle which they are supposed to
represent."

sengers pass directly from the ocean steamer to the
river boat and from that to the coaches, the distance
on the river being 79 miles, and by land-113, the
whole through a fine healthy country. The pre-
sent mode of transit, however, is regarded but as
the forerunner of a railroad which the charter re-
quires to be begun promptly, and which, when com-
pleted, will reduce the time of transit to six hours.
This route has the peculiar advantage of lying
directly in the line of benefit of all improve-
ments in the United States which have a
southern connexion. For instance, we may travel
by railroad now from New York to New Orleans in
four days (soon to be reduced-to three and a half),
whence to the Isthmus requires but three and a
half more, a saving of over two days in the time re-
quired in sailing to the Isthmus directly from New
York. All our interior railroad lines west of the
Alleghenies may be considered as feeders to the
Tehuantepec route ; for instance, when the Missis-
sippi Central Railroad is completg, which it will be
within a year, it will, in connexion with the Illinois
Central Railroad, give a complete line all down the
Mississippi Valley from the northern boundary of
he United States. For sea voyages, either from New
York or from England, the completion of the rail-
road across Florida, now building, will save 300
miles of navigation ; and it may be remarked here
that vessels from England for Tehuantepec find
their shortest route in crossing the banks of New-
foundland, and thence all down the American coast,
sailing parallel to it, and at no great distance, so
that they can touch with little loss of time, instead
of stopping at Jamaica as they now do on their way
to Panama—the route from England to that isthmus
being in mid-ocean or but little north of the Azores.
It may be said further in favour of the Tehuantepec

OLLOWAY'S PILLS AND OlNTMENT.]—Temperature•
—When the heated body is suddenly exposed to cold, both
the skin and respiratory organs become affected, and inflam-
matory action is induced—hence in winter pulmor,ari
diseases and fever are man's relentless foes—atmospheric
variations exert morbid influences over the vascular and
nervous systems, and set up scarlet fever, typhus, measles,
influenza, &c. The simples and compounds of the Pharma-
copoeia are feeble in comparison with Holloway's medicine
in arresting the progress of these diseases, and reconductinf;
the sufferer back to health. In the early stages, under
Holloway's treatment, a favourable issue can invariably be
secured; at more advanced periods they control the worst
symptoms, while nature, that good and safe physician,
raises the prostrate patient.

SERVIA.

The Provisional Government of Servia published
the following proclamation on the 25th ultimo :
" Prince Alexander Karageorgevit.ch having
abandoned the Government and the nation, the
National Assembly, in the sitting of yesterday,
thought fit to decree that the Government of the
Prince shall be confided, up to the arrival of our
Prince Milosch Obrenovitch, to a Provisional
Government composed of four persons. In virtue
of this decree the National Assembly nominated in
the same sitting the undersigned members of the
Provisional Government. We the undersigned,
having in the name of .God and by the will of the
people accepted supreme power, make known to all
the authorities and to the Servian nation, what
follows :—ln order to maintain legal order and
tranquillity in the country, we desire that all exist-
ing ecclesiastical, civil, and military authorities
shall be recognised, and we hereby confirm them
all in their places. By the present proclamation
we invite the people to respect the authorities
legally existing, and to see that the-persons, honour,
and property of all be respected. For our part we
will employ all our efforts .to preserve .ler]. order
in the country. to maintain the Ustay and the
national laws of which it is,the basis in vigour, and
to cause to be rigorously observed by functionaries
of all orders, civil and military, the Ustay, and the
laws which in virtue thereof may in future be de-
creed in concert with the Senate. It is thus that
we shall show ourselves worthy of the inappreciable
benefits,which our most gracious Emperor has ac-
corded' us by the Ustay, and which the great
Powers have guaranteed to us.
" Signed : S. MAGASINOVICS, Prestvanik of the
Provisional Government, Director of Foreign
Affairs ; ILIA GARACHANIN, Director of Internal
Affairs ; S. MICHAILOVICS, Vice-President of the
National Assembly ; E. UGRICHICHS, President
of the Supreme Court, member of the Proiisional
Government."

A telegraphic despatch from Belgrade of the 31st
ult. states that the Provisional Government, in-
stalled in the name of Prince Milosch, was acting
regularly, and was supported by the country; also
that complete tranquillity prevailed. The Skupts-
china had authorised the return to their country
of political exiles and emigrants.
A letter from Vienna, of the 29th ult. says
Prince Milosch, who, on hearing of the meet-
ing of the Skuptschina, had left Odessa for Kra-
jowo (in Lesser Wallachia), went thence to his
chateau at Cernetz, near Kalaftit, on learning the
last resolutions of that body. According to a
telegraphic despatch from Semlin, he has there this
day received the deputation from the Skuptschina,
requesting him to ascend the throne. It is asserted
that he has accepted the hereditary dignity of
Prince, and that he would make his entry into Bel-
grade in a few days."

Another letter from Vienna states that Prince
Milosch intends to occupy the crown of Servia,
which has been offered to him, instead of, as was
said, transferring it to his son.

TALES of the COLONIES ; or the. Adventures
of an EMIGRANT. By the late C. ROWCROFT, Esq.
New Edition.

" A production in harmony with the finest and noblest
characteristics of the glorious old school of our unequalled
English novelists."—Morning Post.
" The spirit of De Foe has revisited the earth, and pre-
sented us with an excellent counterpart to Robinson
Crusoe.' "—Atlas.

" It combines the fidelity of truth with the spirit of a ro-
mance, and has altogether much of De Foe in its character
and composition." —Literary Gazette.

M. Marcellus, form the subject of an entertaining
paper, which is followed by one of Mr. Rowsell's
sketches on social questions, on the important topic
of " Getting Married." It is a brief sketch, scarcely
equal to his former essays. " The Spectre's Visit '
is a boon for the lovers of ghost stories, being some-
what original in plot, and vividly told. The ghost
is a particularly horrible character, but that will be
an additional attraction to the genuine connoisseurs
of such tales, and they will have the unusual
satisfaction of a practical conclusion to the
dismal adventure. " The Painter's Daughter" is
the title of a touching and graceful story, founded
on fact, of one of those melancholy instances of a
" destiny missed," which are not rarely met with.
Veit Gerhards, a poor illuminator, bf Antwerp, is
consumed all his life by the vain desire to be a
painter. Early in life he had been compelled to
abandon his cherished project, and to devote him-
self to the trade of an armourer. In middle life,
being free to follow his own devices, he abandoned
his uncongenial occupation, and adopted that of an
illuminator, as being at least more- nearly con-
nected with his beloved art. Early in life he had
seen Albrecht Durer, and his desire to behold him
again was only equalled by his love of the divine
art followed with such success by the great German
master. His desire was only gratified at the close
of his weary and disappointed life ; but his daughter
Susanne, who inherited her father's taste, was more
fortunate, being chronicled in Albrecht Durer's
diary as the fortunate illuminatist of a picture on
parchment, which had excited his admiration, and
his expression of an uncomplimentary astonishment
" that a woman could do so much !" A spirited
Frost Song, " to the tune of a pair of skates," wil
make many followers of that stirring sport regre
the mildness of the season.
