A WHITE MAN AMONG SAVAGES.

SYDNEY, August 29. Interesting particulars wore published in the Sydney "Daily Telegraph" to-day in connection with the ill-fated French-Italian emigration expedition, under the auspices of the Marquis de Rays. Captain M'laughlin, who explored several islands in the Solomon group, discovered a white man naked among the savages at Banka Island, and counted seventy war canoes, each containing forty armed savages, aiter considerable stratagem he got alongside a canoe containing the white man, who was ultimately with some difficulty and danger purchased for three American hatchets. It was discovered that he was au Italian named Luigi Boero, who had been for 15 months a captive with the savages. When he found that he was about to be liberated his joy knew no bounds, and he became almost frantic, He embraced Captain M'Laughlin in an agony of joy, whilst the savages surrounded them shouting, yelliug, and brandishing their weapons. Luigi Boero believed that he was utterly lost. He imagined that he had been with his captors three years. Me, with five unfortunate mates, left Liki Harbour to go on a cruise in an open boat. Three days after wards they strucK a reef. The bp^t unfortunately was broken, and they fell into the hands of the natives. He got separated from his companions, whom he oply once afterwards saw, when they had a fearful tale of suffering and agony to relate. They were treated worse than dogs. They wera slaves of everyone in the village, and made to do horrible work, always being treated with the greatest ill-usage, and obliged to work in the broiling sun, with their skin peeling off. When enfeebled and sick they were cruelly beaten and tortured. Three months previous to the arrival of the steamer Genii', Luigi heard that all but Wo had succumbed to the barbarous ill-treatment, fever and want of food Captain M'Laughlin, after rescuing Luigi, sailed tor Bougainville and other islands, where he hqard of another white man in captivity, but was unsuccessful in rescuing him. It is supposed that this unfortunate Italian is the only smyivor of his six coun trymen who started with him. It is, how ever, doubtful, and it may be that one, at least, of the others is still alive in captivity among the savages. This tale is causing extraordinary sensation in Sydney.

THE MELBOURNE RAILWAY ACCIDENT.

STATEMENTS OF SURVIVORS,

MB HEBBEBT HODOKINSON'S STATEMENT. I TRAVELLED in the first-class smoking carriage. Nothing of any note transpired in the journey from Brighton till after iuch nlond was passed. The oscillation appeared greater than usual, and this continued till the crossing bridge opposite the Mel bourne cricket ground was passed. Here the vibration reached an alarming degree, till the carriages commenced' to bump and shake very much. The passengers inside at once conjectured that an accident Was about to follow, and instantly com menced to open the windows. I rushed to the door and made several ineffectual efforts to force it open, to communicate with the guard, but it was jammed. During tuis time the speed of the train I believe was increasing, and everybody stood up ready for the accident. The Jolimont gates were passed just as I was trying to open the door, and immediately afterwards a terrific crash followed, and the next thins; I remember was. being thrown with great force out of the window into a pool of water some ten or twelve yards from the line of railway. I scrambled on to my feet, looked around and found three carriages thrown clean off the line. I observed Mr Jenkins caught by the leg and hanging partially out of the window. I at once went to his assistance and extri cated him from his awkward position. Both he and 1 then turned our attention to those in the carraiges, and we managed to drag Mr Kits out of the smoking carraige. We next found Mr Edwards (Wright and Ed wards), and pulled him out. He had seve ral cuts about the face. By this time one or two others managed to scramble out. I then searched for my brother, and after wards found him endeavouring to crawl out of a hole in the side of the carriage. I got into the carriage with great diffi culty, and found Mr Colin M'Kellar with his head thrown back and his throat caught between a splinter, in the most extraordinary manner. How he came into that position was simply a miracle, as he could not if he had tried have got into it. He appeared to be choking, and I crawled towards him and wrenched the obstacle away, and by this means relieved him. I could not, however, move him, as his clothes were caught in the splinters. I' then shifted some of the debris, when a quantity of the broken pieces of the carriage fell on his back and injured him. Mr McKellar was, however, saved, and escaped with only a few braises. I also rendered assistance in removing Mr Elmslie Stephen from the carriage, where he was jammed in a corner, helpless. I observed Mr Frank Stephen, jun., lying against a_ dead man, whom I discovered to be Mr Bailliere, and I endeavoured to remove him, but found that he was firmly fixed by splinters that had fastened like teeth to the back of his coat. He was lying on his back, with Mr Bailliere lying beside him. The debris .appeared to weigh on the deceased. Efforts were made to remove Mr Bailliere but were unsuccessful, as his clothes were caught in the splinters. A piece ot wood was across his head. By this time a good crowd had gathered, and the train following from Brighton pulled up. A number of ' axes were procured, the debris was removed, and many more persons were taken out. The shrieks, con fusion and noise were dreadful. Blood was bespattered in all directions and ghastly sights were common. Each person dragged out appeared to be more or less wounded. Mr Hodgkinson was injured in the right wrist, his left ankle was badly injured, as was also his abdomen, and the fall of the debris injured his back.

ME F. STBPHBN, JTJN'S., STATEMENT. I got into the first-class smoking carriage at Middle Brighton. Immediately after leaviDg .Richmond an unpleasant jolting of the carriage commenced. This increased till after the crossing bridge was passed. Here the carriage appeared to be "wabbling." The passengers instantly apprehended danger. The bumping in creased, and I called to Mr Hodsjkin son to open the windows, and the passengers assisted in doing so. As the bumping got worse we all laid hold of the rafter below the lamps and continued standing. The pace of the engine increased to a considerable extent. As we passed the Jolimont gate a terrific crash followed, and the carriage we were in was hurled over the side of the bank. Another crash fol lowed like a flash of lightning, and then everything appeared chaos. Shrieks and groans mingled with one and another, I felt myself lying on my back caught by. some splinters, and a man who appeared dying lying on the aide of me. I felt him shudder, and then he was. stilL •.---■ Splinters were flying about like matches, and the occupants of the carriage, who numbered about twenty, ap peared to be receiving serious injury from these missiles. The carriage appeared smashed to atoms. I was jammed about four inches from the roof of it. I looked around to see which way I could get out, and found that there was an opening in the carriage towards the water and another facing Melbourne. I endeavoured to scrape myself along, but found that I was firmly fixed, my coat being caught by a strong splinter. I managed with great difficulty to extricate myself from my coat, and then pushed myself along 'on my back till I reached the aperture and got out. I can not tell ho w I got on my back, I remember feeling something strike me, and then I did not remember what occurred for a second or two. Everything was so sudden, and there was such confusion, in spite of the fact that we were all prepared for the accident'and cool. I remember, while I was lying, seeing Mr Hodgkinson pull out Mr Kitz. The carriage, after the accident, resembled abutcher'sshop.lblood being bespattered over the boards. The peculiar manner in which people were caught was very singular. Some appeared to be caught by the head and some by their coats. Jnst as the shock came the passengers were 'shot from one part of the carriage to the other. I was in the position 1 was found for fully five or ten minutes. Messrs Elmslie Stephen, Jeremiah Dwyer and Lyons were sitting opposite to me. The position of Mr Bailliere saved my life, for the debris ap peared to weigh on him. The injuries I have sustained are as follow:—My collar bone has been broken, the left shoulder blade apparently dislocated, and several contusions about the body. . At first I did * not appear to feel the injuries in the excite ' rtient of the moment, but after an horn- or so I felt them acutely.

PARLIAMENTARY.

(FROM[OUR SPECIAL REPORTER.)

WELLINGTON, this day. THE THERMAL DISTRICT SPRINGS : , BILL. The whole of this morning; was spent on the Thermal Springs Bill. The principle of the measure was agreed to, but general discontent was expressed at some of the clauses, especially Clause 11, and others, which it was contended would give specu lators the opportunity of acquiring large j blocks of land- Mr Rolleston looked on the bill as one of the most important of the j session. He thought it would help to; utilise native lands and be of advantage to European settlement, while -it would not throw land into the hands of speculators as had been said. He was, however, willing to take out clause 11. The bill was then committed. ESTIMATES. The estimates are to be considered to- ! night. i

(PER PRESS ASSOCIATION.)

THE SITTING TO-DAY.

The House met at 11 a.m., when the House, went into,committee on the Laud Claims Act Settlement Kepeal Bill, which passed without amendment. On the motion for third reading, Mr Tairoa objected on the ground that the bill had not been translated into the native tongue. The motion was adjourned until to-morrow. THBKMAL SPRINGS BILL. On the motion for going into Com mittee on the Thermal Springs District Bill, Mr* Andrews admitted that the measure was a useful one, but pointed out clauses he thought were likely to clash with the object aimed at. In committee he would more in the direction of prevent ing these springs from becoming the pro perty of any one, contending as he did that they should continue the property ot the Crown. Mr, Kolleston said that to meet the views expressed by Maori members he would be agreeable that the provisions of the Act, as it stood, should in tbo iirst instance be confined to Tauranga and East Taupo. He agreed in the opinion expressed that this was a great national undertaking, and would be the means of inducing a large tourist population to visit New Zealand', , The motion for'leaving thb chair was put! and carried. Clauses 1 and 2 passed, after which progress was reported, and the House adjourned at 1.15. EDEN COUNTY FUNDS. Mr TOLE will to-morrow ask the Colonial Treasurer if he will, at an early date, divide the balance of Eden County fund now in the Colonial Treasury amongst the Eoad Boards within such county.

Government Statenent.

MASSACRE OF THE INNOOENISi

In the House to-day, Mr Hall announced that the Government would for the Bessioh abandon with regret the Hospital and Charitable Aid Bill, also the Crown and Native Lands Bating Bill, Koads Construction Bill, Sharebrokers Act Repeal Bill, and Patent Aot Amendment Bill. A proposal had been made to refer the Corrupt Practices Bill to a select committee, and to-morrow would announce what he in tended to do with the Public Works Aot Amendment Bill and Companies Aot Amend ment Bill, which are likely to give rise to much discussion. There is very little hope o£ passing them. If there is not much opposi tion they would try to pass tho Fisheries and Friendly Sooieties Bills, and also the Town District and Counties Amendment Bills if possible. The other conaolidation bills he thought might be passed in the morning sittings, and if members would summarize their remarks the estimates might be got through this week, and the prorogation take place about the middle of next week.

WRECK OF THE EURO.

Adelaide, 25th August. The wreck ot the steamer Euro has created great excitement in Adelaide. Further particulars received show that the escape of the passengers and crew was most narrow. A passenger gives the following account of the wreck : —

The Euro left Robe at one p.m. on Tues day. The wind had been blowing heavily from the N.W. in the morning, but moderated about midday, and the sea became comparatively smooth. , There were about forty passengers on board, one third being women and children. The sails were set, and tbe vessel was going teu knots an hour, with every probability of reaching Beaehport in time for the 5 p.m. train. The steamer was distant a mile and a-half from the shore, and Penguin Island was sighted, about seven miles distant, when the vessel grounded with a sharp grating noise, which continued for about a quarter of a minute, and immediately afterwards was repeated twice in succession. The order was given to put the boat's head to sea ward, when the water immediately deepened. When the boat grounded some lady pas sengers became hysterical, and the children began to cry, but the majority of the pas sengers were remarkably collected. It may be mentioned as a curious circumstance that the moment the accident happened sharks began collecting about the ship, and several were counted 12 to 14 feet long. A minute or two after the vessel grounded she went down by the stern about 8 feet, and it became evident she was making water rapidly. In about fifteen minutes the stem end was getting gradually into deeper water, when word was given to head for the shore, with a view of beaching her. The long-boat and the life-boat were lowered, and the passengers got in. At this period au examination of the lower deck snowed that the water had risen up to the combings and the cabiu floor was covered with water. There was a dingy about half-a mile astern, containing the carpenter and another baud, the boat having been acci dentally washed away. A few minutes afterwardo the water burst up through the hatchway. At tbis time the engines had stepped, the steamer being about halt a mile from land. The passenger who gives this account states that he waited until the after part of the vessel had settled down, and he then jumped into the long boat. Directly afterwards the steamer gave a heavy lurch to leeward, and the boat was lowered and put off just in-time to get clear before the stem went down. The boat made straight for a part of the beach where the surf seemed lightest, and look ing back he saw several men, who ap peared to have been left behind crawl ing up the sides into the rigging. Despite two heavy seas the boat landed all right. The hull of the steamer had then gone down. She was standing upright at the bottom, with the funnel apparently about 3 feet above water. There were a number of men clinging to the shrouds. The life-boat thea came ashore in charge of the chief officer, and, with the dingy, pat back to the steamer again. Captain Dowell, when taken up, was clinging to the tunnel, and had been half immersed in the water from the time the ship sank. When taken in the boat he appeared to be much exhausted and numbed with cold, and in going through the surf the dingy capsized and he was with difficulty dragged ashore. It is worthy of remark that Captain Dowell was the last man to leave the ship. In returning the steamer's life-boat picked up a woman on a raft, who was much exhausted, and several of the crew were said to have swam ashore, one man especially having been more than an hour in the water. As soon as the news was known at Beachport, every available conveyance in the place was despatched to the scene of the wreck with water and provisions. When the dingy went first to take off the captain he objected, and said, "You must first take all the men who are left in the rigging." They had great difficulty ia getting him into the boat, and had to tow him for some distance through the water before they succeeded in getting him in.

Later particulars state that Captain Dowell aud the purser have arrived at Beachport and are under the care of Dr. Powell. Both suffered' consider ably, but no danger is apprehended. The Euro struck when only three miles from the shore. No blame could be attributed to any one. The vessel is totally lost. The marine board received a telegram stating that the steamer Governor Musgrove has returned to Beachport, aud confirms the report that one lady passenger, Miss Gould, of Mount Gambier, was drowned. She doubtless became alarmed at the rapidity with which the vessel was sinking, jumped overboard, and in doing so was struck by -wreckage and killed instantaneously.

ACCIDENTS ON THIS ONEHUNGA ROAD.

(To the Editor.)

Sib.—Perhaps when half-a-dozen people have broken their neokß on this road, all at onoe, not merely one or two at a time, something will be done towards making it a little bit safer in the particular spot at which said necks may happen to be broken. Hardly a week passes without an acoident more or leas serious occurring on.this road. It ia only a week or two since a 'bua swerving a few inohes from Its narrow course was precipitated over an embankment and several persons narrowly escaped with their lives, all more or less injured or shaken. Last evening as I was driving out in this same 'bus we came upon a pitiable epeotaole within a stone's throw of where tho capsize had occurred a few weeks ago. A poor old dame had boon driving quietly home from town after having disposed of her spring-cart lull of vegetables. Just as she met a pedestrian coming along the road, her horse shied slightly, taookei the man spinning over the side of tne road, and. cap sized the oart, throwing its ocoupants, the aged woman an da little girl Of about 10 or 12 years, violently to the ground. The horse freed him self from the harness and bolted home. When we came upon the scene, we found a man (who had himself with his wife been capsized on the same road only a few weeks before, getting his horse killedand his wife's arm broken) helping i as far as he was able to, by drawing the dis abled spring • cart home at the back of his own and Riving its unfortunate occupants soats in his trap, they were transferred into the bus, both evidently in great pain, the poor child with one side of her face battered and bleeding, and old Mrs Lucas quite doubled up with the shook. It was rather a singular coincidence that the two conveyances coming on the scene jnßt after tho accident should be the two that had only a short time before met with similar capsizings on the same the road : and I too bad met with a somewhat similar accident near the same place. Hiding along one very dark night my horso had shied slightly, and fallen over the embankment, throwing me to the ground and rolling on top oil me. The ground being eoft, and the horse keeping still, I managed to get my legs from under him without any serious harm being ' done. Accidents and narrow escapes are oconrr-, Id? day after day on this road, that the general' pnblio now hear nothing about. It ia now high time the road was made thoroughly^ good and safe from end to end, not patched up here and there, as it will be if the Government are noc worried into doing their simple duty in the matter. The first thing to be donefwhether by Government or by looal bodies), is to have the levels of the road taken from end to end, with cross sections at every chain right across the road, shewing at a glance on the plan, when drawn, the narrowness of the formation and all the dangerous spots on either side from end to end. From such a plan the permanent levels could he fixed throughout, and though it might not be possible to complete its forma tion at once, an estimate of the cost could be formed, and whatever work could be done would be in the direction of work ing out the ultimate permanent level. By this means the road would in time develop into one of the finest in the colony. It is now one'of the most beautiful drives imaginable, but at the 1 same time one of the very worst of roads. II have travelled over some thousands of miles of 1 roads in the different parts of this island, and have seen as muoh money spent in the formation of a single mile of road (over which there is not one hundredth part the traffic) as would, make

the six or seven miles 6t Onehunga road good from end to eiid; and it is ah outrageous thing that while 80 much of the pubjio money has been and is^ being sptmt in other parts<of the colony, this road has not had even one halt the money oolleoteduponit in tolls, spent upon it. It is quite time the public not only of Onehunfta and itpspm, but ot the city also, to insisted upon bay Ingjußtieedolleto theroadi : The'bußßOs alone an this line travel amongst them a dißtancS of 210 miles a day. This will suffice to give an Idea of the amount of regular trafflo on the road. There are besides 7or 8 busses each doing its two trips each way, or 30 trJpsin all, a large number of drays and carriers'carts, running regularly every day, and an immense amount of irregular traffic from the various large agricultural districts to which this 10 a main arterial road.—J. W. Hiokson.
