ACCIDENT ON 'rim LAANDON 4)11D
BIRMINGHAM RAILWAY.

(FROM A CORRESPONDENT.)
A serious accident occurred to the Lancashire mail-train
on its arrival this morning. It is due at the Euston station
thirty-two minutes past five, and entered the Camden station
at five, just as the first goods' train from London weg
crossing to the down line to proceed on its journey. The c°11:
sequence was a collision, which caused a severe fracture of
leg to a passenger in a second-class carriage, and severe cute
on the face and head to a passenger in a first class coupe Or'
riage from the breaking of the glass. Beth received the
mediate assistance which their injuries required. a
The conduct of the individuals who may be open to blsou
on this occasion will be submitted to investigation, but the
immediate cause of the accident appears to have been ¢ t'4°
early arrival of the mail train and a late departure of 1131
goods' train, joined to the impossibility of seeing the- us°
signals distinctly, in consequence of a leg.
