Of Norwalk, were unceasing in their atten-
tions to the wounded.
Among the names Of the dead Is that of
Mrs. Fluent. She was married on Friday
morning, and was starting on a short tour.
Mr. Fluent escaped. though not without some
injuries.
Mr.. Allen Goss and his aged maiden sister,
from Poughkeepsie, were on board. He was
dangerously wounded in the head, and she
was killed by splinters of the broken car.
II was stated at the place that the engineer,
Daniel Tucker, had run into the drawbridge
at Strattord last summer, and that he had a
collision at Per chester two years ago.

Mr.. Geo. Selleck, who keeps a restaurant

seconds before the train came along; they
were going at 40 unusually rapid q rate that
he foresaw the accident and ran for the bridge,
but before he could get there the catastrophe
had occurred.
A gentleman, after extricatng himself,
saved an infant child who was under the care
OF an aunt; the aunt, 1t seems, was drowned.
A man, who saved himself by breaking the

the cities Of New York and Philadelphia, the
risk has become imminent in a most fearful
degree. Will the public wait until an acci-
dent, involving from thirty to a hundred lives,
spurs them on to demand double track on
this road or will they require it to be laid at

The public require it! What can that por-
ton Of the public, most interested, do, while
a majority in the New Jersey Legislature re-
| mains the creature Of the Camden and Am
boy Railroad Company! So far as the Com
pany is concerned, it has no moral sense. 1t
cannot be moved by regard to public good
or public safety; and its passive tool, the New
Jersey Legislature, is yet as far beyond the
reach OF unsefsh considerations. There is
/ little hope in this case, we fear, from any ex-
citiug cause, less than that of a wholesale
, murder, as may be looked for daily. Wher
: this takes place, the people Of New Jerse,
may be so aroused as to demand of their law
makers the coercion of the Company into lay
I ing double track.

THE CATASTROPHE AT NORWALK,

The train to which this terrible calamity
has occurred was the express train for Boston,
on the New Haven railroad. 1t left the
Canal street station, in New York, at eight
O'Clock on Friday morning, and consisted OF
two baggage and five passenger cars. The
number of passengers was abouttwo hundred.
The train arrived at Norwalk at half past 10
o'clock. About half mile beyond the Nor
walk station the road is carried over the creek
or river by bridge, in which there Is a draw
about sixty feet wide, the steamboat Pacific
plying between Norwalk and New York and
other vessels having right of way. II was
at this bridge that the friehtful catastrophe
occurred.
The mode Of signalling the engineer that
the draw is open, and that he must stop his
train, is the lowering Of large red ball,
which, when the bridge is closed and the
track free from impediments, Is again raised
to the top of.a staff Of some altitude. OF
course the engineer is bound SO to regulate
his speed as he approaches the bridge that he
can "brake up" without difficulty as soon as
he discovers the warning signal In this in
stance the engineer appears neither to have
so ahated his speed nor to have looked out for
the signal. The ball had been lowered, the
draw bridge having just been opened Tor the
passage of the steamboat Pacific. The train,
according TO the testimony given at the
eoroner's inquest, was going at its full speed.

SINGLE TRACKS ON RAILROADS.

One of the most fruitful sources of acci-
dents on railroads, is getting behind time
on u road which has but a single track. This
danger Is increased in ratio with the fre.
quency OF the trains. II one Of these is a few
minutes late inreaching certain point, " here
an approaching train is to be met and passed
the engineer of the latter train is considered
entitled to the road, and dashes on toward the
next "turn OUT" where he expects TO find the
due train quietly awaiting his arrival. Blu,
il from slight misunderstanding in regard
TO time, this train, instead of being on the
"turn out" 10 also rushing forward, collision
and fearful loss of life 10 inevitable. That
we have not such collisions weekly on our

But, the lives Of hundreds OF passengers are in
daily jeopardy on the route between this city
and Now York; and unless The Company

competed to lay double track, terrible scenes
will yet be witnessed. Now that eight or

THE New SILVER CoIE.-The Express
Agents Of Messrs. Adams g. Co. have been
engaged for some days past in transporting
to different parts of the country considerable
sums Of new silver currency, drawing from
the Mint, it is said, some fifty thousand dollars
daily. The banks of the principal cities are
thus rapidly becoming possessed of sufficient
amount for all current purposes, and will
shortly be able to supply the wants of the
community at lage.
The great inconvenience which has of late
been experienced everywhere from the scarcity
of silver coin has not, except at few points,
arisen more from the inadequacy of the supply
than from vague apprehension among those
whose gains and funds are usually in silver.
These have feared to part with the small coins
they have boarded from the moment they per-
ceived slight difficulty in obtaining change,
and SO large amount of them were abstract
ed from circulation. As soon as It's perceiv.
ed that no objection lies against exchanging
silver for gold, or approved bank notes, we
shall feel the convenience, at market and in
petty transactions, Of a rapidly increasing
flow of the smaller coins.
We have seen no specimens of the new
currency except the quarter of dollar. This
resembles closely the old coin, and but for it's
brightness would pass without particular
notice. The chief differences are that on
each side Of the date, 1853, are arrow heads;
and from the upper part of the sitting figure
of Liberty rays emanate as from the sun.
Perhaps the milling-that is, the indentatioD
at the edge--is not as distinctly and finely
done as in the earlier coins. This may arise,
however, from the unusual urgency of the
work at the Mint, in the effort to afford i'm
mediately supply of silver equal to the de-
mands of the whole COMMUNICATED. Intel.
