NEWS of the FORTNIGHT.

(BY OUR LOMWH CORRESrOKDEJST.)

Loxdoi", July 13, Tubes has not been much doing anywhere during the ten hot, sleepy, thunderous days which have clapped since I wrote via Suez. Londoners don't like heat. It seems to de press their spirits. Even the city is not as alert as usual when the thermometer rises to 80deg. in the shade. People stroll along the pavements languidly, and there seems a marked disposition to linger in the neigh bourhood of cool wine cellars, and tempting "Bodegas."

The sudden drath of the Duke of Marl borough created some little sensation. His Grace was a well-meaning man and greatly respected even by opponents, His demise would not, however, have excited much gossip if the heir had been a ilitlereut sort of person. The new duke 19 under sentence of banishment at Court. I daresay your readers will remember how, as Marquis of ISkindford, he quite receruly distinguished himself in the D^vorca Court, Lady Blandford was a moat long-suU'oring wife. Rather than create a Ecandal and have tho name of Churchill dragged through the mire of a public inquiiy, she forgave faithlessness, insults, and even a mot brutal blow. It was, however, all of no use. J ord Ulandford is a cynical scouudrcJ, who writes long letters analysing hia course of sensualism (as if there were somuthioE wonderful in it), and professing to bu moved by all sorts of stiynge influences. 1. c :ic r.cptcd ttie sacrifices liis wife made for the faaiily name, and made a merit of return ing to live with her. The patcned-up peace Wis, however, of brief duration, BLiudford still maintained relations with his paia-

mour, and one fine morning his wife dis covered he was tetfling property, which

had come to him tbvough her, on the child torn to him by iacly Aylesford. This, of course, led to divorce proceedings beiDg in stituted, and Lord Blandford was shewn to the worldiuhiatruccolours. Usually, when a man come 3 into a great title the sins of youth are forgiven him. Society will, however, find it difficult to treat tbe new Duke of Marloorougli leniently, Apart fro'n the fact that bis crime is only a few months old, certain royal personages are understood to have announced that they will taboo every house inside which he is admitted. General Booth and the Grecian. Iheatre. The downfall of the Salvation Army is now certain and assured. The verdict en tered against General Booth for not keep ing tne covenants which he entered into with the lessors of the Grecian Theatre, means, the papers say, a loss of £20,000 to the Army, and where the cash is to come from no one seems to know. Any

sympathy th.it might have been felt for tbe "General" on account of the pre sumed genu nene:s of his character was scattertd to the wind by the worthy man's conduct la tbe witness boa Instead of speaking "the truth, the whole truth,and nothing but the truth." Mr Booth quibbled and equivocated in a most astonishing manner, bringing down upon himself at last a stern reprimand from the judge, who expressed extreme surprise that a Christian minister in the defendant's position should have felt it right to de liberately evade responsibilities voluntarily entered no. "The sophistries put forwaid by Mr Booth to justify his stooge conduce •were" (the learned judge went, on), " if any thlut'.raiher an kttgravatioa of the broach of contract. Entering intoau agreement with a man holding the defendant's peculiar posi tion, the plaintiff's had a li^htto expect fair and honest treatment. This, he much re gretted to say, they did not seem to have experienced." If Mr Booth can conjure much more money out of the pockets of the public alter au expression of opinion like the above on the part of one of Her Majesty's most famous judges, people must be sillier and more credulous than I take them to be.

Outrage in a Railway Carriage.

Attempt to Murder an English

Clergyman,

Bearing in mind how many English travellers have a sort ot mania for securing compartments to themselves, it is surely wonrlciful tli'it thieves, garotters, and oth>r murderously - inclined villains should s> ' scUl ra select railway trains as the thcn.e of their operations. Tlirfe years a^o tbe world was startled by the ghastly details of Lefroy'd appalling ciinie, aud now I have a '.^tory'to tell jou of another stiange assault in the car.iajie of an express train. The lastbusii.e s, however, though awful enough a-i an experience, did not end fat.Ji.v, and, con iuering what an enormous amount o£ railway truvelliug most Knglishmen do, we ouyht surely to be very thankful there are not many more such terrifying in (idotita to chronicle. The present in explicable outrage took place a few days after the last mail (via Brindisi) closed, ou the well-known line connecting Calais and Pali?, the victim being a London clergyman called Whidborne. It appears that Mr W hid borne is one of the carates of St, Pancras, and was proceeding lo the Continent on a well-earEed holiday trip, He took the night boat from England, and arrived in Calais in the small 'bouts of the niorniDg. According to bis own autho ritative statement, he was alone in a first class compartment when the train for Paris steamed out of the station at Calais, on its way to Boulogne and Amicn?, At the former stopping-place a new passenger stepped into the carriage with Mr Wh'd borne. This wa°, as his victim describes him, a "stout, middle-aged man, of florid complexion, wit& a short, red beard, and of about medium height." His manner was flurried, and the clergyman from his first entrance into the compartment felt what he states to have been an instinctive drsad of the man. He apparently attempted some conversation, and bpoke in a broken French accent, which Mr Whidborne thinks was assumed for the occasion. If, as seems probable, the ruffian turns out to bo a Frenchman, although he was at first put dowa as an Knglishman, his imperfect patois must certainly be regarded as a mero disguise to hide his nationality. His name is a French one, and it seems highly improbable that ai Englishman who had followed the clerical gentleman over from Dover with the intention of robbing him would have only got into his carriage at Boulogne, instead of Calais, It is more likely that he was an impecunious French man of the Lefroy type, a villain wtio would stick at nothing in order to obtain the pecuniary relief of which be stood in need. Tho sufferer from his crime stated that he was an entire stranger, aud that to the beat of his knowledge he had never seen the man before. This, therefore, set? at rest the idea that there might be fome personal aud private grudge at the bottom of the murderous outrage which so soon ensued. In yet another foature this latest railway crime briugs to mind tho story of that un happy wretch who assassinated Mr Gold in the railway carnage, and was subsiquently hanged. Lefroy, it will be recollected, walked hurriedly up and down the depar ture platform at London Bridge.looking into various compartments of the train uutil he found one where sat an elderly gentleman quite alone. That carriage heat once entered, So, too, the French would-be assassin seems tohavecarefully inspected thetrain for Paris as it stood at the Boulogne platform ; and, as Mr Whidborne was sccu to be unaccom panied by ony other passenger in hi 9 first, class compartment, the stout, red-bearded man got in with him, He attempted, as we have said, to begin a conversation, but Mr Whidborne cV.d not like his ]o:>lt, and pretended not to understand him. What would have happened had the English clergyman kept his attention on tho alert as might have been expected consideiing the suspicious appearance of his travelling companion-it would be impossible to fay, Mr Whidborne, however, fell asleep, yield ing to the influence of the hour- only a little past midnight- and to his own fatigue resulting from continuous hard work in a London parish, Thus the murderer had an opportunity for carrying out his design such afl he could hardly have Imped for. Pre sently Mr Whidborne woke up with a feel ing of violent paiu in the tetrpla ; and no wonder, considering that his strange felloiv passenger was standing over him with a chisel in his hand, making stabs at hisfoie heud. Actually, five different blows were inflicted on the face and head of tho unfor tunate clergyman before he could spring up and grapple with his assailant, It is extremely fortunate that the hand of tbe assassin was weak, and that his repeated blows fell without iLilicting more than some dangerous wounds on his victim's forehead. There is no doubt that he had Mr Wlrd borne completely at his mercy. He was armed with a revolver, as well as the chisel, so that the escape which the curate of St. Pancras has experienced from sadden death approaches the confiues of the marvellous. Happily, he was able to get upon his feet and close with the rnlßan. The struggle which then occurred in that finfrclass

' carriage must have been of a terrible character, Despite his wounds, the .English clergymaa wenched the chisel from the hands of the French assassin, when the latter produced a revolver; uud Mr V- hid borne statss that in the course*of the life-and-death contest the criminal opened the carriage door, apparently with the intsntioa of throwing him out on to the rails. Seizing the opportunity, the wounded gentlemangot upon tue foot-board which runs along the carnages, and, despite the express speed at which the train was travelling, succeeded iti reaching the window of the next compartment, and implored assistance. Then comes what fs certainly one of the most remarkable and discredit able incidents in the whole of this extra ordinary affair. The occupants of the next carriage refused to render any help. Pos sibly they were too frightened at the ap pearance of a man, covered with blood, just outside their door, to be able to otler assistance ; but Mr Whirborne states that he was deliberately prevented from enter ing the caniage, despite his earnest en treaties. Surely the people within ought to have been able to collect their senses enough to recover from the first fright occasioned by the peculiar circumstances, and tlieu to ha\c admitted the desper ate'y wounded gentleman without loss of time. It ii a fac", however, vouched for by Mr Whidbomo, that he was obliged, in his weak and Muling condition, to travel along the whole length of the carriages before he found a compartment ia which the passen uei3 were sensible enough to understand the tuic s;ate of the case at once, and humans enough at once to take him inside and attract the attention of the guards of tie traio, it would be difficult t-> conceive a rooro terrible position than that iv which this clergyman was placed when he was standing on the foot-board clinging des perately to the handles of the carriages of an express train, weakened by tiie dreadful stabs he had received, and a ruffian a few doora off "covering'1 him with a loaded revolver. When at last the train was stopped, the criminal was secured, but not before he had attempted suicide by shooting himself in the head with his own weapon,

Appalling Disaster on the Clyde.

Loss of Over 100 Lives,

(FROM OUE LONDON GOBEESPONDKNT.J

Disaster follows upon disaster. The public had scarcely recoverod from the shock caused by the dreadful Sunderland tragedy before the news of the terrible collision between the Waitara and the Hurunui horrified them, and notf from Glasgow comes the report of the losa of one hundred lives in consequence of the sinking of a chip newly launched, and immediately after she had left the ways. The story of this new tragedy is as follows:—On tbe morning of the 3rd inst. a steamer of 500 tons, ca'led the Daphne, built by Messrs Stephen and Sons, of Linthouse, was crowded with workmen employed in completing her internal fittings at the moment when she glided into the water. It is stated by tbe people employed in tbe yard that no fewer than two hundred men were on board tbe vessel at the moment when she was being launched. Uhe necessity of putting the final touches to the workinthequickestpossibletime is assigned as a reason for si large a number of persons being on the deck of the steamer. Most of them were at woik in the interior of the vessel. Scarcely had she left the ways and was fairly *flmt when she was observed to sway from side ■to side, as though, indeed, she was labouricg among billows. This unusual luotion alarmed those who were on board, and tbey were observed to iush from one part of ihe deck tv another, ia the hope, perhaps, of steadjii g her by their united weight. It was speedily seen, however, that she was top-heavy. The ac counts to hand are too meagre to cnahle us to form an idea of the weight upon her deck; but it is possible that a large lottion of her engine fittings were above the hatches, and the p eence there cf even a small portion of the steel and iron work that belonged to the engine-room would account, in a light, unballasted hull, forthedreadfulcitastrophe that immediately followed. After making a few heavy lurcheo, she was found to settle to port, and then literally cap size, all but her bows being submerged. It was high tide at the time, and there was, unhappily, abundance of water to cover a vessel fourteen feet high. A large number of the men managed to swim ashore, and much help was rendered by the two tuga which lay on each side of the ship. Many boats quickly put out from the yard, and nwny li'-'es were preserved by their agency. As the .-peut swimmers arrived at the pier Skirting the yard, ropes were thrown to ihem, and thus iv nnutner «ay several of the poor fellows were rescued. But nearly if not all those who were below at the time were drowned. 1 hey h-.d no time to escupe The watjr rushed into tbeinterior, and 100 men perished in a few minutes. Personal narratives. The sbipbu'lding yard of Messrs Barclay, Curie, aud Co, is immediately opposite. At present there is building in that yard a very large vessel, close to tbe water's edge, and fiom the upper deck of this ship the whole of the appalling scene was witnessed by several workmen. Their accounts vary, but the main tacts stand out clear and simple, and are terrible in their stern reality. One man says : " I was standing looking towards the yard. Tbere was a considerable crowd of people along tfee embankment, chiefly boys and girls, and a number of persons al-o in i.tephen's yard. They wore, like myself, waiting to see the vessel launched. All was in readiness when the ship move away, and some of the people cheerec There appeared to be a large crowc on board.probably over two hundred men, — at least 1 thought so, and I heard at the same time that some workmen were down below. She slid down the ways veiy evenly, anil went into the water. If J noticed correctly, sbe was stern foremost. However, no sooner had she got her own length into the stream than she canted and tumbled right over. In a moment or two she was clean out of eight, and it struck me that she lay at the bottom with her keel uppermost. When she fell over, her whole citrgo of men and boys—there were a good many boys on board—tumbled along with her into tbe water. I saw them like in a mass on the surface of the river, and I saw some taken down in the suction caused by tbe submersion, I noticed, tio, that the wood and other stuff slided off the vessel as she was falling, and came smaih down on some of the drowning men. It must have struck them heavily, because I hear now that there was blood on some of those who got out sale. When the heap of men were struggling I heard shrieks, ana observed several sink under. Those who did not go down clung to pieces of wood and other debris which floated out from the deck when the accident happened. Two men were saved by hanging on the smith's bellows; bnt I tell you it was fear ful—something the like of which never happened before. When the great crowd were in the river, at once I saw six poor souls of them catching at each other. Tiny held on for a few moments, and then broke out, but 1 could not tell whether they were all saved or not. Then I saw three or four of them trying ta climb up by the side of tho vessel as she was going down ; but just at that moment a lot of steam from, 1 think, the porthole burst out, and they were obliged to give up the struggle, I think that everybody who witnessed the fearful sight from the shore was in a way paralysed for tbe time, and did not know well what to do." A Survivor's Story. Alexander Cramond has made the sub joined statement :— I am a foreman joiner in the employment of the fiim, and live at SS, Fairfield-streot, Gfvan. 1 was on board the vessel waiting in case my services should be required for anything." I was on the forecastle head. On hearing that tho supports were being knocked away [I paid attention to the manner in which the ship left the ways. Shs seemed to go all right, but 1 noticed that she moved very quickly, more quickly than ia usually the case. Almost directly the keel tcucbed the water I paw that the vessel was going to capsize, and I call d out to a number of nu-ii ttandiug near me, 'Look out, boys I this is an awful busi ] ness; we wll all be drowned.' Ihe next moment 1 was strangling in the i water. I cannot swim at all, but I came to the surface, and with little difficulty succeeded in getting hold of a way block which wa* floaiing near, Ftorn this I caught hold of one of the davits of the steamer, and then on to the side of her. She sank gradually, and I remained standing on her until the water was about up to my waist. 1 was then taken off by a tug, I had charge of about twenty men on board, and since the accident I have seen only three of them." Thomas Fishei, diver, in the employment of the Clyde Trust, states : " I and my son, William Fisher, com menced diving operations about 5 o'clock. The water is so thick that a foot and a half below the surface it is impossible to see anything; everything has to be done by the touch. I went right down to the port rail. I found one body in the

deck.honse, but nono in the lower rail. I then went down the com. pamon-way leading to the cabin. Tbe companion-way was blocked with one solid mass of bodies. The men were lying there thick together, the one crowded on the ton of the other. It seemed as if they bad rushed from the work at which they were engaged, and had got jammed in attempt. id« to ieach the deck, isome of them had tools in their hands, Ob removing these bodies, 1 reached the alley which runs to the cabin. I went right down to the foot of the ladder and took all the hatchways I reacheditbiß point,when it was found im'. possible to proceed further to-night. I and the other divers have yet to go into the engine room and alODg the side. I expect to find at least as many bodies there as have been already recovered."

COLLAPSE OF A WHARF.

Seventy Excursionists JDrotvned.

A Fearful Scene.

Baltimore, July 24th,-A terrible calamity occurred at Worth Point, TivolL to an excursion party on the Patapsco, ten miles from this city, about ten o'clock last night, by which many lives were lost, Ihe number is estimated between sixty and seventy, The accident was occasioned by the giving way of the outer portion of the pier, on which several hundred persons had congregated, awaiting for the boat te return to thi3 city. Xhe locality is on a small bay, distant about two miles from Warren Point light-house. Vcsterday an excursion was given to Tivoli under the management of the Mt.

Royal iieLcllccnt Society of Corpus Christi, of which Father Starr is pastor. She departed between six and seven o'clock, and reached Tivoli before tea o'clock, During the day she had taken on board five hundred persons, aud on her last trip about seven hundred, A large number of those who went down during the day had remained, intend* ing to return the last trip. The ex« cursionists, Knowing this was the ouly boat, dashed along the pier until they weie stopped by a gate near the steamer. Some youths tried to climb over the gate, and a man and boy seated themselves en the rail with their legs hanging over, when a too sudden movement caused the rail to break, and they were thrown into the water. A Commotion followed, and there was a sadden crash, one chorused shriek, splinters flew in every direction, and about 200 people were struggling among the broken timbers in ei^bt feet of" water. The noiae and screams were so loud that

the watermen heard them two miles away. Those who witnessed the scene stated it was sickening. The moon had gone dowp, and the only light was that shed by two feeble coal-.;l lamps. Some of the resellers took large lanterns and set them on the wharf, when two of them exploded and added fresh terror to the scene. Those on' the decks of the barge threw life-preservere, stool«, and benches into the water. These struck a great many and knocked them in. sensible. Others let down planks andropes, Indescribable hopelessness and terror leigned, and there were shrieks, curses. groans, cries "For God's sake, save as I" and heartrending prayers for help, ihe darkness impeded the work of aid by those who jumped into the water. Ihe names of those whwe swimming powers were the means of paving the lives of others arc as follows, together with the number of persons each saved: Charles ». Connor, G ; E. A. Fitzpatrick, 4; Patrick Beatty, 6; John Connell, 4; Jacob Barnet, 10; Jam's Burns, 10; Wil liam Carey, 2; Chiis. Doyle and Captain Rober'son of the tug Amanda Howell, 60. Some women were puLed upon the wharf and some were dragged into shallow water, The movements of the barge caused a wash that carried those battling with the water under the wharf and among tbe piles. The men were mostly able to struggle out (

The men drowned were trying to help the women and children. After the confusion was over, a huge tire was built on shore for those who had been saved, and their clothes were soon drying. The work of dragging tor the bodies then commenced, and twenty-eight were found up to ten o'clock, when Father Starr took upon him* self the responsibility of ordering the boat up to Baltimore, and it came up and went back at daybreak. The Inquest. At S o'clock this evening Coroner Morgit began the inquest, at which Father Starr, pastor ot the Church of Corpus Christ), war present. Jacob Bennett testified tbat he, is a special officer at Tivoli; he locked the.: gates on the whaif at S o'clock in the oven iug, by order of the proprietor of the place, to keep the people from getting on the wharf; he refused some young ladies who! wished to return to the grounds through the first gates, because he feared that others would get through. The boat reached the wharf between 10 and 11 o'clock. Tbe witness then opened tbe gates and, the people lushed through. He begged them to keep back, as the wharf was not of the best. Soon after he heard a crash, ran back, and saw a number of people in the water. He palled off his clothes and went into the water and rescued twelve persons, and also recovered three dead bodies, He did not consider the - wharf secure with such a crowd. There weia about 700 hundred people on the wharf,when it fell, find fully 300 werein the water. The flooring had been repaired this season. The break occurred between two gates-not where the boat lands. He examined the place where ihe break occurred, and found tho timbers pretty rotten. There were from six to eight lights on the whaif, and they burned brightly. He did not think 'more than 250 people caold stand on the. space where the break occurred. He had a full view ot the accident, and saw the people struggling in the water. Had there, been a crush ot people, many more Would, have been thrown into the water. After the crash he found the outer gate open,, though it was closed five minutes before, j I The following is the verdict: "We find that Lou:sa Swearer and others cajne to their deaths by drowning by the breaking of the bridge at Tivoli on the nfght of Jaly\. 23<d, and that the authorities of that place. did not u«e proper care and precaution to prevent the occurrence."
