NAIL hoAp AcciDLSTs.-1he frequtnry
Of these in England strikes us as among tho
most remarAabl features Of the intelligence
brought by the steam ships. We have found
several recorded in almost every batch Of pa
pers received within the last three or four
months. What is remarkable too, considering
the methodcial turn Of the English people. and
their habitual perfection in the details of their
enterprise, the accidents appear TO be, aImos,
without exception. such as could easily be a
voided by attention such as can readily be
traced 10 their causes, while the causes might
easily be guarded against. With us, ON the
contrary, accidents generally arise from causes
not likely to be foreseen-,he starring of rail,
or some incidental obstruction upon the track.
One OF the most recent as well as most
dreadful. was on the Great Western Railway,
and is thus described in London paper
~ Y. Com. Adrertiser.
AS the engine and train approached the Far
ington station, the guard percriving that tho
driver Of the engine did not shut of his steam
or slacken his pace, at the usual distance from
it, was heard by some Of the passengers to call
our, and endeavor TO attract the attention Of
answered in the least by any decrease in the
speed of his train, and on eet,in. nearer the
station some Of the coDstables aud others on
duty called TO The driver, who appeared to be
asleep on the engine.
The eng inc and train were proceeding nj the
rate Of about 90 miles an hour, and 10 almost
an instant after frighiful conc usson as heard
resembling loud peals of thunder. The engine
had run into the engine-house, bursting IN its
progress, two pair OF massive doors, and scatter
ing and dashing every thing which ohstructrd
lis way to pieces. in an instant after another
leud crash was heard by the officers at the sta
ton, and silence succeeded. Being assured by
this that the eng inc was overturned, they lost
no time in reaching the spot, where a most APP
paling spectacle awaited ,hom. The .a,riages
CONTAINING the luggage was heaped one upon
another, and the goods they contained, toselh-
er with their broken fragments, scattered around
for many yards.
! AT short distance from each othcy lay the
four passengers, some ,apparently liieless. and
others in a frighifu! condition. Some yards
from this spot the body ol the guard, Mslow,
was found enangled among the broken carria-
ges. Life was quite extinct, and the corpse
presented truly horrible appearance. The
engine was found turned upon its end horizon
tally, and the tender attached 10 il in a slanting
position. On seeking for the body Of Ross, il
was found near the front of the engine, dscsp-
itaied, the mead lying OH the ground Immediate
/ Iy uuder the small space between the engine
and tender This can only be accounted for
in the following manner; 1t is supposed that
Ross must have fallen asleep the Goals in
the tepdsr, and that when the conclusion took
place he was pitched head foremost between
the ,euder and engine, and tha, when the latter
turned up horizontally his deeapha,on too.

The largest steamer yet-The Great Wes-
tern steamship company are now building. At
Bristol, England, an iron steamer, for the New
York trade, which it is said will be The largest
ship ever built. The following particulars in
relation 10 her ,re given in the English papers
She will register about 5000 tons, but her ac-
tua tonnage will exceed 5000. An immense
saving in stowage will be gained in consequence
Of the adoption Of iron for her hull, whilst her
drausht Of water will be comparatively small,
owing TO the great buoyancy possessed by iron
vessels. She will consequently be able to car
~ Goals sufficient for her outward and home.
ward passages. She is to be propelled by
Smiths screw propeller, instead Of the common
paddle wheels. Her engines are 10 he Of 1000
horse power, and it is confidently expected
that the acreage voyage across the Atlantic will
be reduced to ten days. She will carry a vas,
spread Of canvass. so that in all probability the
engines will frequently be at rest. The rssul,
OF this gigantic experiment will be looked for
with much interest. IL its success equals the
sau.uine expectations Of its projectors, Other
steamers will undoubtedly be Immediately con.
siructed on the same plan.
