SAD CATASTROPHE. An English paper contains de-
tailed accounts of two sad accidents in England
one in Manchester the other in Stockport The first
was by the fall iron footbrdge which crosses
the Rochdals canal The bridge was used chiefly
by the operatives in the neghborheod. Its width
was only sufficient for three persons to pass abreast
The bridge parted at each end when upwards Of
twenty persons were upon it, all of whom were
thrown into the water, and several girls were
drowned before they could be taken out At Stock
port a large number of people assembled to see a
balloon ascend from the castle yard, which was ap-
preached by high flight Of stone steps. While at
tempting to retire from the scene, some children
fell from exhaustion, and the crowd pressed on to
that degree that six persons were trampled TO
death and many others severely injured.
