The News.
We have received ard publish in another CO
hmm the details Of the news from Mexico TO the
1od ut. a brief account of which, received by tee
yroph, appeared several days since. The news Of
the fight of Santa Anna the revolution ut the CAPT
sal the adoption Of the plan Of iyuta, and the es
Establishment Of provisional government, with Gen.
Ca,rera at its head is confirmed Santa Anna at
tempted to escape in the Mexican war vessel Itur-
bide but being frustrated in his object embarked
board another vessel. Whittier he was bound or
where he will turn up remains to be seen.
A iull report of what transpired before the Coro-
ncrs jury on Saturday last, in relation to the Bar
Engton railroad slaughter win be found the first
page. The jury themselves, il will be seen, were ex-
smned as TO their being interested in the Camden
and Amboy Railroad Company, and one Of them
knowledgcd 70 owning stock in that corporation 1t
was then asked had any of them free passes on the
rad; but that inquiry was stopped, and the ques
houcr silenced The feeling among the farmers in
and around Burlington of course runs very high,
there being two parties--those who blame the COM
papy for not having taken proper precautions, and
those who eSonerate them from all blame; the lat
terprelomnating largely. The Grand Jury will sit
at Mount Holly, N. j., on Tuesday and should the
corporation, as it is likely to be, TIE matter viii
come before the grand inquisiton, to whom the pub
NC will look for decided measures against those
whose cMeessness and inattention caused this dire
calamity.
We publish elsewhere the laws Of the State OF
New Jersey relative TO the liability Of railroad cor
pcratons when they do not take proper precaution
10 prevent accidents on their roads. The law, it
bao Io.e ~ us,ryy md fpp
all the good it could effect! it might as well not be
passed at all. The only penalty it contains is that
of one hundred dollars and costs for not complying
with the most simple dictates Of humanity and pru-
aenee in giving the customary warnings when pass
ing turnpike and high roads. This law, inefficient
as il is, has been clearly violated by the Camden
and Amboy Railroad Company; Cor if the testimony
Of reliable witnesses, and of the engineer him
self, is to be believed, the whistle not blown,
nor any signal given. The passengers can now
have the immense satisfaction OF making this
wealthy corporation pay one hundred dollars and
costs in retarn for killing and manning ninetyone
persons. Such is New Jersey legislation.
Probably but few Of our readers are aware thai
We have had revolution among MS. While the pub
HI mind has been occupied with the horrifying
