Separture would probably not take place till the middle of June, as Captain Sands was waiting the result of the mission of Colonel Sherburn, who had gone to Paris for the purpose “of recovering the re- mains of the late Commodore Paul Jones, which, if found, are to be brought to the United States in the St. Lawrence, by order of the United States government. The eaptain and officers of this splen- did frigate wore making themselves most popular by their polite attentions to the numerous visiters of the ship. On the 19h ultimo, James LU. Wolff, Esq, , the Consul at Southampton for the republie of | °hili, and Vieo-consul for Nicaragua, and tho States | of Central America, paid au official visit to the St. | Lawrence, and was received in the prescribed form, the ship firing the customary consular salutes from her batte on the embarking and disembarkation | of Mr. Woltt. The reception of this gentleman | by Captain Sands and his officers was most cordial ' and gratifying, and the interest of the visit was by no means lessened from the fact of the prominent and intimate connection existing between Mr. Wolff and the leading journals of London and the United States, whom he so ably represents at Southampton. On the day of the Washington's de- parture, an address of congratulation was presented by the Mayor and corporation of Southampton to Captain Sands, in which the worthy commander and his officers were invited to a grand banquet, which was to be given on the 28d of May, at the eouncil chamber, and to which Mr. Abbot: Law- renee, the American min key, the United states Consul at Southampton, were to be invited. ‘I'he banquet was also intended te embrace the commander and officers of the ‘Turkish steam frigate za Baari, Vice Admiral Moustafa Pacha, (seneral Gerneladim Pacha, His Excelleney M. Co rus, the Ottoman Ambassador, and other high functionaries conuected with the Turkish frigate, and with her visit to the port of Southampton, where she touched with cargo of valuable goods for the great Exhibition. nstantine Muse a Sertous Rallway Accident In Engtand—Four [From the London Times, May 22.) We regret to state that a most fearful acc occurred at this place (Clay-cross) last nigh! which the lives of two geatlemen have been su- fived, and many other porsons- seriously injured. From personal inquiries made on the spot, aud also from information obtained from Mr. Smith, one of the directors, and Mr. Mills, we have learned the following particulars, which may be relied upon as worrect:-~ {t appears tha: the express train, whi:h starts from London at 5 p. m., leaves Derby at 9.5 p. i About five minutes after the express left the Derby 2 wus followed by a goods train. The for- pureued its rapid course until it had pass 1 the Clay-cross tunnel, when, in consequence of the Re becoming disabled, it was brought to a stand. he goods train continued its course, and about 10 minutes after the express train had passed the Clay-cross stacion, it followed at a speed of about twenty miles au hour, and direetly afterwards ran with tremendous foree inte the passenger train, then atatiouary. ene of indeseribable confusion en- sued, for amidst the crashing of the carriages and the shrill whistle of the locomotives, rose the pierc- ing cry of the affrighted passengers. As soon as Sarre attention was directed to the sufferers. Mr. - Meynell, of Tapton- grove, near Chesterfield—an active wad intelligent magistrate, whose death will be greatly felt—and Mr. J. Slake, of the firm of Blake & Park , Sheffield, wera found to have received fatal injuries; and most of the pa> sengers were more or less seriously injured. ‘The accident was immediately telegraphed to Derby, and about miduight several of the compa- ny'é officials arrived on the spot. Those of the pas- sengers whove bruises were not of a very serious eharacter were, after a few hours’ delay, forwarded to their respective destinations; but those whose injuries were more extensive and dangerous were accommodated at the station and in the immediate vicinity. The catastrophe soon became known in the neighborhood, and the local surgeons, with others trom Derby, to the number of seven orcight, attended and rendered valuable assistance in allevi- ating the pain of the injured passengers. The following is a correst list of the sufferers, to- gether with the nature and extent of their in- juries: — "Mir. John Meynell, of Tapton grove, near Chcs- terfield, one of the magistrates tor the county of Derby—dead. Mr. John Blake, of the firm of Blake & Parkin, railway *R ing, saw, file, and steel manufacturers, Meadow Works, Sheffield—dead. Mr. John Todhunter, Dublin—both oy Mr. Joshua Todhbunter, Dublin (brothe: above)—collar bone fractured. Mrs. Tennant, of Charlestown, United States— fracture of the thigh bone.
