The Right Hon. Benjamin Disraeli, M.P., will
visit Manchester during the last week of October. He has
promised to address the members and friends of the Insti-
tutional Association of Lancashire and Cheshire, embracing
110 mechanics' institutions, and to distribute the prizes and
certificates to the' successful candidates at the late exami-
nation held at the Manchester and Blackburn centres of
the Association. It is fifteen years since the -ex-leader of
the Commons addressed a public assembly in Manchester.

COLLISION ON THE GREAT NORTHERN RAILWAY.
—Among the sufferers is this frightful accident, on 'Thurs..
day night last, we are informed, was Mr. Paul Niunis, th
assistant general treasurer-of the British Association, who
was on his road to Aberdeen to attend the approaching
meeting ; his legs have been seriously injured, and the
fibula of the left leg has been br,Ocen in two places.

THE EXPLOSION ON BOARD THE
GREAT EASTERN.

WEYMOUTH, MONDAY NIGHT.

The sad intelligence of the accident on board this
ship reached London, through the medium of the
electric telegraph, long before the inhabitants of
Weymouth had any knowledge of the disaster, and
steamers crowded with spectators and yachts gaily
dressed out continued to sail round and about the
Great Eastern until after dusk on Saturday even-
ing. It was only when the bodies of three of the
sufferers were brought on shore yesterday morning
that any idea of the fatal nature of the catastrophe
prevailed. Subsequently inquiries were made of
parties who came on shore, and since the truth has
become known a wide-spread feeling of sympathy
has pervaded all classes resident in the neighbour-
hood.

After the arrival of the ship on Saturday a couple
of hulks, previously engaged for the purpose, were
brought alongside the vessel to facilitate the embar-
kation and disembarkation of persons anxious to
view the ship. The propriety of carrying out the
advertised intention of exhibiting her, after what
had occurred, was anxiously considered by the
directors, who ultimately resolved that no sufficient
reason existed for a postponement, especially as
they were assured by Mr. Scott Russell that if the
necessary repairs were entrusted to himself he would
undertake to have the ship again ready for sea in 14
days. The arrangements in progress were therefore
completed, and to-day she has been visited by at
least 1,000 persons at ss. a-head. The curiosity to
view the ship is perhaps rather stimulated than
otherwise by the accident. In the single section of
the vessel that has suffered the ruin is complete;
and in the minds of non-professional observers a
feeling of the utmost astonishment will arise that
after such an explosion any ship should have proved
seaworthy. Those who have a knowledge of her
construction, however, will not share this impres-
sion; and both agree that the much-to-be-lamented
disaster affords the strongest possible evidence of
the general safety of the ship.
The list of fatal casualties has unfortunately
beiv g increased since the despatch of my previous
letter. At that date, including Gorman, who
jumped overboard, after having been severely
scalded, three lives were known to have been sacri-
ficed. Subsequently, Michael M'Gilroy, Robert
Edwards, and Richard Adams, all employed as fire-
men in the fore stoke-hole, succumbed under the
terrible injuries they received. The bodies of three
of the sufferers were brought on shore yesterday,
and deposited- at a tavern in the vicinity of the
Town-hall, whither the other bodies were conveyed
this morning.
