THE EXPRESS.

Mr. F. J. Calhoun, the mail agent
 who conducted the message express
 through from New Yo'k to Boston, re-
 turned to this city Wednesday noon. W.
 received call from him yesterday, when
 he gave us some of the particulars.sep- nccted with the tram actiouof the ekpfess.
 It was rather perilous undertaking for all connected with it. But "alls well
 that ends we'll" The whole running E5ame from Jersey city to Boston was six hours and twelve minutes. and from Washington to Boston the time occupi- ed was thirteen hours and twenty eight minutes, This is about an average of [. mile in one and three quarter nainutes The best time made was on the New York and New Haven road. From Twenty -Sevensk st. to Williams Bridge, the run was slow, and the distance. Is miles, consumed o3 minutes but after striking the New Haven road, the engine had full play. and the remaining sixty three miles were run in sixty-seven min
 utes, including a slow run of four miles an hour through Bridgeport.
 The expressmet with several detentions in it's progress, and it is certainly Proyi- dentiait that nossrious accident took place. At Meriden two wheels of the tender got of the track, and 40 minutes were lost in putting things to right there. At Palmer freight train was in the way, and the express was consequently detain- ed IS minutes more. At Wasren. the express tender again got of the track. which caused another delay of one hour and 3e nlinsites The express reached Boston at precisely 20 minutes past 6 o'clock. Wednesday morning.
 The Engineer from New York to New
 Haven was Daniel Fisher; from New Haven to Springfield, John Priestly 1 from Springfield to Worcester. Mr. Bian-
 ch,rd. and fFom Worcester to Boston, Warren Ray.-N. 4. JOsvsak
