MOST HEART-RENDING Accidental
terrible accident occurred in New Y ork, on
Thursday afternoon, a, 9 o'clock, by which
upwards Of fifty children were killed, and
many more dreadfully manned for life. The
nature of The accident and The manner in
which it occurred is thus stated by lele-
graphic despatch:
"Abou, two o'clock this afternoon, Miss
Harrison, teacher in primary school No. 26,
was observed, probably from The closeness
Of the room, to faint. On seeing this, a
number Of children ran to her side. Others
became alarmed, and, in their fright, rails
ed The cry Of fire. This soon caused the
greatest alarm and CONSERVATION among the
lil.le unsuspeclng innocents. Almost in a
moment they, as with one impulse, made a
general rush for The doors and windows end
the stairway, which, i, seems, was Of spiral
form, and running from the first to the
fourth story of the building. Soon the press
against The bslus,rade became So great that
i, gave way, precipltaling TO the floor below,
which was of flag stones, used for play
ground, nearly or quite one hundred Of the
little ones. The scene, at this moment, was
awful, and hear.-renJing hey ond description.
Child after child rushed down the horri-
BILE pit, crushing beneath their weight those
who had gone before, while others leaped
voluntarily out Of the windows, and others
threw themselves down the chasm, minglIng
their life-blood with that of those already
dead aud dying. More than seventy chill
dren thus rushed into the arms of death
and, although few escaped being seriously
injured, some fifty were Instantly killed"
Since the above was sent, it has been as
certained tina, besides those killed some
seventy or eighty are mamed-some Of
them for life. Many of the lille ones are
SO dreadlully mangled as to be scarcely re-
cognizable by their parents. A number Of
the wounded, i. is supposed cannot survive
No language can half depict the distress
which exists in consequence of this most
melancholy disaster.
