TEE ENaL1sg RAILWAY TsAeEpg-DE1aNsp
ACCOUNT OF THE AooDENr.-The English pa
peFs by the Java give detailed accounts OF the
terrible railroad accident in Wales, OF which
telegraphic summaries have been received by
cable:
It appears that on the Goth Of August num-
Der Of passengers were on their way to Holy
head, by the well-known train called the "irish
Mail" In an Instant, without one sound OF
warning, without time for cry for help, thrae
carriages were wrapt In Hames, and twenty,
seven human beings within them were burned
to cin6ers. Their bodies were reduced to char
red heaps, among which scarcely q trace OF the
human form could be recognized. Lord and
Lady Farnham we're among the poor creatures
thus hurried IN 30 awful manner into eterni-
ty.-aIhe accident was one which variety OF
causes had combined to produce. truck lor
carl containing petroleum had been uncUupled
from goods train, and slid back on an incline
toward the mail train. There Was curve, ana
the driver could no more SEQ ahead than man
can look round the corner OF street. He could
not stop the train, and it dashed into the petro-
leum car. The concussion, or the engine tire,
set the oil in flames, and being on an moline,
the burning liquid. OF course, followed the
train in downward stream leaping up in an
instant over the carriages, and burning to death
every man, woman and child they contained.
There was no hope Of escape. It was con-
siderable time before the burnt carriages could
be approached, owing to the intense heat
thrown out by the fused mass Of iron and
burning embers. and when search was )ui-
menced for the sufferers, little more than the
charred remains of human bodies could be dis.
covered. In most Of the cases the bodies we're
headless, and in many it was impossible to dis
cover whether the sufferers were males or fe-
males. Evetyparticle Of clothing was destroy
ed on.al the sufferers, and for along time only
ble Lord Farnham, whose identity was estab.
'lished through an inscription inside gold
watch, recovered from his remains. This
fightful tragedy has cast gloom over the
whole kingdom.

A Sw1NDLE N PHILADELPHrA.-An outrage
i0us stock swindle was perpetrated on Monday,
on the young banking firm OF Wbelen & Bro
ther,. Third-street, Philadelphia. It seems q
stranger to the firm attempted to buy of them
$1,000 in gold, for which he offered check in
payment. The delivery of the gold on this,
unless it was marked good, was declined, when
the buyer said it was no matter as to the gold
just now, but he would leave On order to buy
for him $1,000 OF government bonds, to be de-
tyered at his offlc,, No. 216 Gold-street. The
Messrs. Whelen & Brother bought the bonds
and sent them to the address named, where
the buyer received and examined them, and,
saying, ''yes, they are all right" put them in o
pigeon-hole Of case standing against the
partition to an adjoining room, closed the door
Of the case, ard begged tn ) messenger to walt
q moment and he would give him the money.
With this he passed into the adjoining room,
and at tie latest accounts had not returned.
On investigation Of the premises, it was dis
covered that hole had been made IN the par
tition opposite The pigeon-holein the case into
which the bonds had been placed in presence
Of the person who had delivered them. A
small door on hinges had been nicely fitted into
this hole, and through this the bonds had been
abstracted and the fraud consummated while
the young gentleman who had taken them to
make the delivery thought he had his proper
ty under his immediate eve.

The Chester Standard says: Rust has
made its appearance in cotton, and ls also
quite general throughout the district, and this
coupled with the fact of it's having been stunt
ed for the want Of rain, in many portions Of
the district, willlighten the crop.

he died on the afternoon Of tho following day.
Simmons surrendered himself and is now IN
jail.
The Camden Journal says: The frequent
and heavy rains Of last week have proved very
injurious to the cotton crop. On many plan
tations rust has made its appearance. and the
plant has been otherwise badly injured. we
are glad to learn that the late heshet did not
prove as disastrous as was at first anticipated,
although the damage has been very great.

Deserted.

The river flowed with the light on its breast,
And the waves were eddying by;
And the round. red SUI went down IN the West,
When my loves loving lipe to my LIPS were prest'
Under the evening sky.
Now weeping alone by the river stray,
For my love has left me this many day
Left me to droop and die.
As the river flowed then, the river flows still,
In ripple, and foam, at spray,
On BY the church, and round by the hill,
And under the sluice by the old burnt mill,
And out to tho fading day;
But love It no more, for delight grows cold
When the song is sung and the tale is told,
And the heart is given away.
Oh river, run farl Oh river, run fast!
Oh | weeds, foat on to the sea-
For the sun has gone down on my beauaiul past,
And the hopes that like bread, on the waters cas-
Have drifted away like theel
And my lips win murmur the name OF one
Who will neyer como back to me.

open, with spring attached for closing the
same; under" the head is neceptacle for re-
heBhments and restoratiyes. The most inn
portant part of the invention is box about
Two feet square, resembling very much CHM
ney. with a.cover and ornamental grave work
on the top. This box is Of sufficient length to
extend from the head OF the coffin to about one
foot above ground. The cover is fastened down
by catch on the inside. and cannot be unfas-
tened from the outside. just below the cover
is bell similar to those used on street railway
cara, with cord appended, which, upon being
pulled, sounds an alarm, and at the same time
spring throws the cover from the chimney.
