Accident ON THE RAIL RoAD.-We
rssretat to learn, that all accident, of a seri-
ous nature, though fortunately not affecting
the lives or limbs ofpcrsons, occurredon the
Rail Road on Monday evening last. When
the downward train ofcars arrived within
q milo of Woodstock, the Locomotive ran
of the road, and consequently drew after it
the tender, baggage, and several of the
freight cars, also a car containing several
race horses, belonging TO Col. Hampton.
and others. A number Of ears werc shat
tered 10 atoms from the conclusions, and
several OF the horses injurcd-one or two Of
them, it is reported. SO badly as to lead to
The belief that thoy will be incapacitated
rom any moro appearing on tho turf. A
servant was i'll tho car with tho horses, at
the time the accident occurred, but escaped
with little or no injury. The horses were
taken from tho Rail Road, and arrived
here yesterday forenoon. The passengers
were brought down between s and 4 o'clock
yesterday morning, by a Locomotive that
was despatched from town TO their assis-
tancc, as soon as Information of the occur.
renee was received. Capt. J. G.. Ker the
proprietor of Woodstock, hastened an ex-
press instantly to town, to give notice ofthe
misfortune, aud, with his usual urbani,y,
and pr0mp,itIdc, afforded every assistance
in his power.
1t is particularly unfortunate that this cir
cuns,ance should have taken place at this
period, as NO fear it may affect, somewhat,
the sports of the Turf, during the coming
week. We hope, however, that none of Col.
HIS f%avorite nags have sustained such dam
ase as to prevent his engaging in the con-
tests for the various purses to be run for
Should he not participate in the weeks
amusement, the circumstance should be a
ource of much regrc, to the sporting com
munity.
