During the sitting OF the Academy Of ) fences,
VI. Cordier communicated various details OF tie

with SIX wheels. made by Sharp and Roberts
The boilers If both are at present without the
slightest injury.
According to the testimony OF the Comms.ary
of Police at Menlon. one of the carriages al
together consumed in ten minutes. The report at
tributes the accident to the of the small loco
mo,iy- and recommend, that such machines should
not for the future be employed. The Academ,
listened to the account in mourstu silssce. Sev
eral members afterward made remarks on the in
convenience of ssing locomotives with tour wheels.
W. Ellie dc Beaumont particularly protested
again. immense trains being drawn by several To-
comotiycs the danger increasing in proportion to
the number ,of machines employed. The Gus
t)mot locking up the passengers was alsomuch
spoken against.
The locomotives were made in England and
had been obtained from that country specially for
the sake of exccllencet land safety

at the moment OF the accident, but he was in
another train, going from Paris to Versailles.
The body of Admiral D'Urville has been found

missed only by comparison Of the skull with casts
that had been taken during life. The remains oi
Madame D'Urville also has been identified.
This number of killed very uncertain. Some
accounts make it -, others only Is, and others
again 80. Many were believed TO be- persons OF
distinction. 1t was thought at first that some
Americans among the killed but subsequent
invesigs tions led to the belief that there nei-

rally living in a quarter of Paris whence they
would take the railroad on the other side OF the
river.
The only son of Admiral D'Urville, lad of IA,
also persisted.
The ,scertained number Of persons wounded
was %, but there were probably many more.
MANY persons of distinction escaped by being
moment too late. or by finding the train full. The
King. youngest son. the Duke de Nontpensler,
came by il shsrt distance frsm Versailles. and
then got out. NJ. Chambolles "a Deputy and edi-
