The racing, as will be collected from our return, was
not by any means interesting; the attendance, however,
owing to an expectation that Bolingbroke and Penang
would show for the Rowley Mile Plate, wasluite as good
as we usually see at a Second Spring meeting.

SERIOUS RAILWAY ACCIDENT,
On Saturday forenoon a somewhat alarming col-
lision took place at the North Bridge station of the
North British Railway, which occasioned serious in-
jury to a considerable number of the passengers, but
we are glad to say was unattended by loss of life.
As the eleven o'clock mail-train for Berwick,
which carries on passengers to Newcastle, York,
London, &0., was about to leave the station, the crank
axle of the engine broke immediately on the applica-
tion of the steam. This having effectually disabled
the machinery, a pilot engine was sent down to St.
Margaret's station for another locomotive, and the
former engine being meanwhile an obstruction
to the train, the carriages were drawn back to the
turning-tables, and put upon another line of rails.
The engine sent for, which the pointsmau had
received orders to put upon the line on which the
train stood, soon came up, and at a speed, we believe,
unusual even for swift trains, and without much
slackening its pace, dashed right into the passenger
train. By one of those truly fortunate interpositions
which so often avert the most fearful and impending
consequences, a sheep truck filled with pigs, destined
for Leeds, and a goods van, were first in the train,
and were literally smashed to pieces, the latter, which
was a vehicle belonging to an Euglish line, almost
falling in shivers, and the former being, with its
numerous occupants, lifted off its frame and dashed
upon the ground. The concussion was also felt vio-

gers, were more or less personally injured, but we
are glad to say, that we have heard of no injury by
which life is endangered. The engineman and fire-
man also escaped, and fortunately the tender was
thrown off the rails by the shock, so that the effect
was less felt in the carriages. One of the guards on
the train, seeing the furious rate at which the engine
approached, also leaped from his box before the oolli-
sion took place. Two of the pigs only in the truck

authorities, as well as
the legal autho by the directors. The
apprehended is, we understand, party app , tend, one of the nu•
merous hands put upon the line when, about three weeks
ago, a hundred of the drivers and sto k
ers went out on
strike, and with whom no reconciliation
has been made.
It might be seen, from a Parliamentary return we
published a few
days ago, that from Ist June to 31st
December, 1849, not • a single personal injury was
sustained owes this
line, a state of things highly cre-
ditable to the directors, as well as to their late em-
ployees; but we fear the present strange catastrophe,
and which would have been unaccountable under the
former regime, unless the drag of the engine bad
given way, which defection in the machinery is not
here alleged, altogether betoken something wanting
in the skill of those that direct the engines. We trust
this is only an individual and exceptional instance; but
in any view it calls for a rigid inquiry by the directors
into the engine driving department.--Caledonian
Mercury of Monday.

DRUMMED ouT.—Yesterday two privates of the
battalion of Coldstream Guards stationed at St. George's
Barracks, Charing-cross, were drummed out of the corps
with the usual formality of the " Rogue's March," £c. The
offence for which this punishment was inflicted did not
transpire.
