On the Ist inst., in the House of Loris, the question of the admission of Jews into Parliament was taken up. Lord Derby receded from his opposition to the measure. Be believed it was impossible to maintain inviolate the principles for which the'r lordehips had so long contended, without bringing themselves into collision with the House of Commons. Therefore. he felt it the duty of the House '\ to consider whether there was any possibility of satisfac- terily settling all differences. He believed that the sug- gestion of Lord Lucan—that the Commons should be al- Jewed to dispense by resolution with the words ‘on the faith of a ()r'stian” when 2 member of the Jewish per- weasion ap, cd to take his seat—afforded the only solution of the diflicuity, and theretore, though with great regret, Ibe was prepared to accept the measure. Lord Lyndhurst consented to postpone his bill, and Lord Lucas, in moving the second reading of his measure, explained that it gave the House of Commons the power ‘ef omitting the words ‘‘on the true faith of s Christian,” by resolution, but required that any member of the Jewsb persuasion should present himself in the first in- stance st the table of the house, and state his objections to the oath in the form in which it now stood. Aiter some debate the second reading was carried by M3 w 97. . In the Commons the India bill vas further debated, anda variety of amendments were fered, but all voted ) down. ‘On the $4 inst., in the Lords, the bill abolishing church rates wae taken up. Lord Derby opposed it, and tt was rejected by 161 majority. Im the Commons further pregross was made in the gevernment india bill. Attention was called to the fact that the Peruvian gov- ernment was selling guano to the Americans at lower prices than to the English government. It was rephed that Pera bad promised to reduce the priee to the Ameri- oan standard. ‘Vb was whought (hat Pasliament would be prorogued be- fore the end of Jaly. The British revenue returns for the year ending the an of June show a decrease of over £5,000,000, nearly all of which was occasioned by the reduction of the in- eome tax. ‘The Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, in the ap- peal againet the decision which held the steamer North American liable for damages in her collision with the American ship Leander, had affirmed the judgment of the Jewer court. Much anxiety was felt in England as to the Atlantic @adie, but there was no news of it up to the departure of Dad suspended for £50,000. ‘The large failure at Rio Janeiro, reported per North Amermwan, was that of Domingos Ferreira. FRANCE. ‘The Paria correspondent of the London Daily News says that the affair of Montenegro and the ticklish state of di- lomatic relations between France and Turkey and Aus- feta, are considered very serious; that France has sent an aitimatam to Turkey, aad if @ satisfactory answer should not be returned at once, more ships will be sent to the Adriatic. The Moniteur publiches & decree re-appointing M. de | Merny President of the Corps Legislatif. A special seesion of the legislature was anticipated.

Several districts in France were suflering severely from ‘a great want of water. In Paris it was being used very sparing'y by the lower classes.

Smash of a Train of Cars on the Erie Railroad. SIX PERSONS INSTANTLY KILLED. THE CARS TUMBLED OVER THE PRECIPICE: NAMES @F THE KILLED AND WOUNDED. Interesting Particulars of the Catastrophe. THE VERY LATEST, On Thuraday evening sbout ten o’clock aterrible acckien eccurred om the New York and Erie Railroad. The nigh express train, which left Jersey City at twenty minutes past five o’clock, and was heavily loaded with passengors, a large portton of whom left the cars at Paterson and other stations, preceeded on ite way until within six oF seven miles of Port Jervis. It would appear that at this point, a few minutes’ walk from a little station called Glen Hollow, the two hindmost cars were thrown off’ the track by the breaking of « rail after the greater part of the train had passed over. The cars were thrown down an embankment, the last car beipg made a complete wreck. It is to be preeumed that the breaking of the coupling saved the other cars from being dragged down also. The rest of the train stopped as soon as possible, and a horrible catastrophe met the view of the passengers who had luckily been in the forward cars and who escaped un- injured. The two cars at the foot of the embankment were terri- bly smashed, and from among the splinters came all who were able to help themselves. The passengers in the for- ward cars were thrown into the greatest disorder by the sudden break, and on gaining their feet they opened the windows and doors of the cars, and heard the shouts and moans of dying and wounded beneath them. The great- est confusion prevailed, some running to and fro, calling on the conductor to stop the train, while others rang the Dell rope attached to the engine moat vigorously. One of the passengers who was in one of the cars when it ran off the track, and who was unfortu- Bate enough fo be among those who were wounded, favored us with the following statement of the occurrence. Our informant is Mr. J. W. Beels, of Bosten;—About nine o’clock Thuraday night, when the train was within about six miles of Port Jervis, I remarked toa gentieman who was sitting pear me that the cars seemed to be shaking more than usual. He said something in reply ; but before he had time to utter his sentence, the car gave a sudden jerk and roeked violently for® moment or two. Then we heard some unusual noise behind our car—in the one behind us epparently—our own being the last of the train, with the exception of that from which the unaccustomed noise weemed to proceed, Before we had time to con- sider this, however, or to sccount for what it might be, suddenly our own car capsized, then formed a semi-circle two or three times, and suddenly clashed ‘against some hard substance. When I was able to aecer- tain what the cause of all this was, found that the two last cars of the train had been detached from the rest by ‘® broken rail, which knocked them off the track, and then, being carried on by their momentam, they were tumbied over an embankment about forty feet in height. Of course ‘& great number of persons were killed and injured; but at the time! could not ascertain how many, nor anything else, fer I had received a severe injury myself in the head. Teubsequently learned that the number of the killed was fever, and that the injurea or wounded were foriy- seven, beimg nearly al) who were in the two cars at the time of the accident. Some were only slightly injured, and they continued their journey with the train, after a delay of some hours; while the limbs of others of the wounded will have to submit to amputation. Some few returced to the city in the morning, and the re- mainder are submitting to such medical and surgical aides could be procured at Port Jervis, and are there in tempo- rary accommodations. A despatch anmouncing the occurrence of the accident ‘was received by the railroad authorities in Jersey Cry and New York Thursday evening, but it was a mere statement ‘that a horrible accident had occurred to the train going west trom New York. It seems that the entire train of cars numbered seven; that they were going at the rate of twenty five or thirty miles an hour when they came in contact with the broken rail. The following letter in re- lation to the circumstance was recoived this morning by Mr. Moran, the President of the railroad, who thereupon proceeded to the scene of the calamity: — New York ap Bam Rattnoan, Port Jenvis, July 16, 1868, } To Cuanizs Moray, Eaq., President:— Sin—The night express west met with a terrible acci dent Inst evening, about six miles east of Port Jervis. ‘The two last cars in the train were thrown from the track by 2 broken rail, and were precipitated down an ermbank ment some forty or fifty fect. Six persone were killed, and one gentioman was #0 badly hurt that it is thought he cannot survive, and some twenty or thirty others were injured, some being seriously Bort, but it * thougbt none fatally. I enclose a list of ue killed and wounded, so far as I have been able to ascer- tain them, and will send farther particulars soon. | beg that Mr Headley would send some ene authorized to settle with the injured to my assistance. Arnot wae slightly burt, but al) the wounded are well cared for and attended by (he best physicians that could be procured. Yours, &e. H. RIDDLE, Division Superintendent. As speedily as possibly yesterday morning Messrs. Moran, President, Headley, Assistant President, anc; Mr. Riddle, Superintendent of the road, repaired to the scene of the dieaster, and rendered ali the nesistance in their power to the helpless suferers. , The train consisted of five passenger cars and two bag- gage cars, and the engine (No. 201) was driven by Jobo Moxon, Tt is [tated that the engineor, afer the first wheel of the engine had passed, felt a shock and imme- diately shut off steam. The rail appears to have been broken some two or three feet. The embankment is very steep and about twenty-five feet deep. It ie stated that there wefe lights in all the care, but of course when the two hindmost cars were upset the lamps were extinguished, At Glen Hollow there is a slight de- ‘scent, and it was therefore more difficult to stop; but from the statements made by the company, this part of the line has been recently inspected and was considered perfectly safe, The train wae immodiately sent on to Port Jervis for medical aid, and in the course of an hour tour medical ‘men from that piace were on the ground. The killed and wounded were taken from the broken fragments and laid ‘upon the graae a abort distance from the debris. (me of the parties who was taken out alive died, before he was con- ‘veyed to Port Jervis, in intense agony. Curious to say, the bind brakeman escaped, and did not suffer more than some slight bruises. Several of the passengers, and par- Uoularly the ladies, in the excitement had their clothes torn, and were severely bruised. One lady had ber reti- oule torn from her arm, which contained a large sum of money, and is supposed to have been stolen after the a0- cident. The following are the names forwarded by the officers of the railroad company in Port Jervia to the President in New York. The list came by the train which arrived here yesterday morning at half-pagt eleven o'clock, and reads thus. — KILLED. 1. Henry Wood, Wellsboro’, Pennsylvania, 2. @ W. Robinson, of New York city. 3.

Two Unsuccessful Attempts Made to Lay the Cable—All Well on Board the Niagara. Boston, July 16, 1868. Through the kindness of Capt. Joseph Cummings, of the ship Alice Munroe, from Liverpool, arrived off this port, we have received the following:— At sea, Sunday, June 27, 1858, latitnde 52.5 north, longitude 33.15 west, wind west and light, and weather hazy, saw two ships heading to the eastward. On looking with a glass found them ta be the United States steam frigate Niagara and Her Majesty’s ship Gorgon, of the Telegraph Squadron, and as they were lying still 1 at once tacked abip and stood towards them. At eleven A. M, was boarded by Cyrus W. Field, Esq., and a lientenant from the Niagara, from when we received a letter bag and the following commu- nication, viz.:—That the squadron had experienced very bad weather from its leaving port, and were sixteen days reaching their destination, and that they had made two unsuccessful attempts to lay the cable. On the second attempt, the 26th, they suc- ceeded in laying upwards of forty miles, and were going along finely, when the communication sud- denly ceased, at 12:55, Sunday morning, the 27th of June. The ships then returned to the starting point, and were waiting the return of the Agamemnon and Valorous, and as soon as they met a splice would be made, and another attempt made to lay the cable.
