FEARFUL CATASTROPHE IN CORN.
wALL.-English papers relate that ter.
rible accident occurred on the .21st OF
April, at the Delabole Slate quarries, near
Carmelford, in Cornwall, where about &C
persons are employed. The quarries
form one immense pit, having an area OF
something like 16 acres, and the depth in
some parts is as much as $40 feet. Then
there is an additional 100 feet to the top
of the slate rubble heaps surrounding the
quarries The slate and refuse are raised
from the bottom by drawing engines con-
nected with the frameworks, called "pop-
pet-heads,' which overhang the pit.
Without hardly moments warning, the
most extensive of the poppet-heads igave
way with tremendous crash, shortly
after five o'clock p. M, carrying away
with 1t all those who happened to be on
the head, and also buryingI many poor
creatures at work beneath. The crash
was heard for miles around, and a large
concourse OF people soon congregated,
and rendered all possible assistance. Up
to the 23d, ten persons, had been taken
out dead, and it was believed. that still
others had met with like fate. About
dozen were seriously injured. Some
miraculous escapes are reported. One
little girl fell with her father into the Dit
a distance Of about 400 feet, yet she 70
ceived little or no injury. A. woman was
on the head when it gave way, but was
