A tenth railway accident ! Near Hinham, on the Northern

and Eastern Comi- ties Railway, yesterday morning, a passenger-train suddenly went off the line. The carriages were knocked together; but no one was hurt. The cause of the accident was the negkeg of a man to adjust some "points."

The Lincolnshire Chronicle reports that one Thomas Fowler, while intoxicated on Saturday night last, fell insensible between the rails of the Blisworth and Peterborough Railway, near the Sibson station. A train passed over him, but only grazed his shoulder. The guard of the train saw him too late to stop, but went back and placed him in safety. When he came to himself not morn*, he was in perfect ignorance Of -what had happened.

A frightful steam-boat collision occurred in the Black Sea on the 11th July. The Ottoman commercial steamer Iskudararmon its way from Constantinople to Trebisonde, and about forty miles North of the Bosphorus it met the steamer

Medjud Tidjaret, belonging to the same firm. Both were full of s and pas- sewers, both going at full speed. According to rule, Mr. Dob • , the com- mander of the Iskudar, /tut his helm to port; but the master of the other steamer, Mr. Lambert, put his helm to starboard; and the vessels came together with a fearful shock. Mr. Dobbins proposed that they should remain io company, to see which weald sink or swim; hat .14r. Lambert, thinking more lightly of the acci- dent, went on. Almost instantly it was seen that his vessel was sinking, the mats were lowered, but the rush of passengers swamped them- and the Medjrai Tidjaret went down. The Iskudar picked up 48 passengers and 25 of the crew; P24 passengers and .6 Of the crew perished. The vessels, the masters, and the engineers, were all English.
