A ieaeful accident occurred on the night of 7lh on the South-Western Railway. One of the trains returning fiom the Ascot races — a long and heavy one-— ran into another train at the Egham station, destroying two carriages, killing five passengers almost on the spot, and more or less seriously injuring 20 or 25 others. The collision was very violent, owing to the immense weight of the following train. It crushed the guard's van to splinters, .smashed v second-class carriage next to it, and partly crushed another beyond. There was a horrible scene beneath tbe ruins of the broken second «lass carriage. From out of the wreck the bodies of four gentlemen were removed, a fifth died as he was being carried to the bank, and a sixth was so injured as to leave no hopes what ever of his recovery. About 25 other passen gers were found to have sustained injuiies,such as concussions, dislocations, and broken hones. Three of the bodies were identified— Mr Clegjr, landlord of the Harp, Jermyn-street ; Mr Cockerell, the clerk or agent of Mr Padwick, the well-known racingman ; and a Mr Win field, who is net known, except from tbe direc tion upon a letter found in his pocket. There therefore remained two bodies uot recognised. One of tbe passengers, whose injuries are al most fatal, was brought to Charing Cross Hos pital, London. His name is unknown, and he remained as insensible as one already dead. In appearance he was a young gentleman of 26 or 28 years of age. The corpses were not much mutilated, death apparently having arisen from concussion. Owing to the many false starts, the races were not over till a late hour. There was then a tremendous rush of pasien gers, all desiring to be sent off as fast as the trains could be filled, and the trains were des patched very rapidly one after tbe other. A person belonging to the Prince of Wales eslablishmeot, suffered severely. His name is Louis Kay, au apprentice to M. Franeatelli, chef de cuisine in the establishment of his Royal Highness. The young man's feet, which had been terribly shattered, have been amputated, and he is progressing favorably. The person who was conveyed to Charing Cross Hospital is Mr Esau Trigg, a licensed victualler at Brighton.
