° " ^ * " b 8 * ' ! ' ' ' ' ' " , , - - - , , - , - lliose persons desirous of battering their condition and of becoming "Independent Labourers , " by entering the "Productive-labour" Market , will do well to read "A Practical Work on Small Farms , " by Feargus O'Connor , Esq . It contains much useful information , invaluable to the parties for whom it was written ; and Old Farmers will find many useful lessons in the new system of husbaudry , which they have yet to learn . The work displays great practical knowledge , and is written so that any one who reads may understand . Mr . O'Connor seems nat to have used either the old or ' new nomenclature' in this work ; he has notbiirie ; l bis meaning in chemical teclmisalities , which very few understand , but which most writers on agriculture seem so desirous ot" using . Perhaps they do not understand the practice of Farming so well as she theory ; and , therefore , mystify that which they cannot explain , by some long chemical term , which tiie plain reader may pass over as a " hard word , " hard to pronounce , and harder to understand when it is pronounced . The reader will find that Mr . O'Connor has avoided all those hard names , and suited the language to the toiling labourer , whose college is generally the workshop , or , at best , the Sunday School . Though the work is written for holders of Small Farms , yet no Allotment ' Tenant ought to be without it ; the valuable information it contains respecting tilling and cropping is alike useful , to all , "—Extract from a Farmer ' : Letter . " This really useful li : tle volume ought to be in the . hands of every one at all connected with agricultural pursuits . "—Lloyd ' s Weekly London Nwsixiper . " Although we feel no desire , in the language of the proud Peruvian , in contemplating what we hope to rejoice , in , the contentment , prosperity , and comfort of our fellow . men , to exclaim— " This , this is rcy work ; " nor is our object , as Mr . O'Connor declares his to be , "that each , man who is willing to wovk may be independent of every other man in the world for his daily bread , " yet we can I with much pleasure recognise in the book before us a powerful instrument for aiding in developing in man a . Miueh higher destiny than he has hitherto attained . 'Mr O'Connor shews clearly , what will soon be apparent tj all who relitiet deeply , that we are not left without the . means of obtaining not only att that is physically requisite for man ' s progress , but also that we may readily pro-; , d ice what is apparently desirable ; for none who carefully y peruse this work can doubt that a system of small farms , i f held by active and industrious labourers , would amply return , in exchange for healthful exertion , far more thai ) fl is requisite to preserve physical strength . , , ' '' He also shews that something more than tins is roijui g site to ensure happiness , fov he says in page VJl , " I fee lf convinced that man can place no reliance whatever upoi ,. his fellow man , or a . community of men , when circum stances operate upon his or their minds , theintluenc 5 ) < uid effect of which would be stronger than any abstrae notions of justice .

MOKE RAILWAY ACCIDENTS . rniGiiiFCL Accident ox im Xortoebx asd EiSTEnx Railway . —We have to perform the painful duty of giving the details of another railway accident , by which one man has been killed and several persons wounded . The scene of the calamity is that portion of the Northern and Eastern line wliich was opened duly a few days ago , and which had been < Josely inspected by General Pasiey . On Monibtv the express or morning mail train left the terminus of the junctiau station , at SUoreditcli at half-past eleven o ' cIoe ' k , tic usual hour for Norwich . It consisted of two second-class and three first-class car riages , between which and the tender ami engine \ rcro the luggage van aud a horse-boxcontaiuiii "
, two horses , aud at the rear of the train was a truck and : uiotiicr iiorsc-box . The tram proceeded at its usual rate , averaging about thirty miles an hour , making two stoppages , as far us Weuuon , in Essex , a distance of forty-three miles from town . It was then about five minutes to one o ' clock , and the iiinuer truck and horse-box having been detached , the regular signals were given and the train renewed its course . The line between this station and the next , Chcsterford , is slightly op . ihc decline—we are informed o ; ie foot in 150 , and , according to all accounts , the sjieed here maintained was greater thau iu the preceding part of the journey , jo much so , indeed , as to produce a violent oscillation of the carriages . SudJcnlr , on the train entering a kind of
cutting , near a village called Littleborou ^ h , halfway between the Wcndon and Chcstcrferd stations , the passengers sustained a slight shock , wliich was immediately foil jwed by one of a mure tremendous character , accompanied by an explosion . It was some moments ere the pa-sengers recovered from its effects , and on booking out of the carriages it was impossible , for a time , to discern what had really happened , on ac . ount of a torrent of fire intermingled with" dust and dirt , while , at the same time , the steam iiteraliy enveloped the traiu , aud even wheu It bad subsided the roaring of the engine was of a character t . « iavrUy the passengers ; still more the loud shriek * «•» . tie females for assistance adding not a little to the horror of the scene . A frightful skirt
presented liseji to such of the passengers as alighted . The engine , after breaking away from the tender , Lad crossed the upline rails , and was lying bottom upwards on the side of the cutting , a complete wreck . The tender was some distancein advance of the traiu , doubled up , whilst the horse-box and van were on fiiv . The first effort made was to extricate the passengers from the enrriascs next to the horsel » x , which were sadly broken , " the bodies being taken coaijilettly off , and Ihunes issuing from the roof of one of them . Many persons were carried out for dead ; others were much bruised . In another part of the traiu the General Post Ollice guard in charge of the mails was found lying on his back , having been apparently thrown from his seat on to the line , and
the wheels passed over him , for one of his legs was found to ha shockingly crushed . The dense body of smoke and steam that issued from the disabled engine , and the ground being strewn with heated coke , the search fora time could not be proceeded with . In tiie meanwhile the guard of the train promptly sent two or three of the passengers to the neighbouring village a-id Wendou , for medical and other assistance , and on the disastrous occurrence being made known , hundreds of persons flocked to the spot . It is impossible to giveauyjadequatc description of the state of the rails . Boih ' lines , to the extent of near 200 yards , were torn up , the rails twisted in various forms , and some of the carriages were capsized . The engineer was found alive , but the stoker waslving
under the engine , one of his hands just being perceived . It was iu vain to attempt to extricate him -with the means then at hand ; it was evident to all , from the weight that rested upon the body , and the violent action of the Jirc and steam , that the poor fellow must have been killed instantaneously . The bv-st : imlers having procured various vessels , proceeded to shower water on the blazing trucks and carriages , and cvcnttialiy succeeded in subtitling the flames ; by which time , however , the luggage van was partially consumed , and ranch damage was also done to tiie pa- scngers' luggage . In an hour or so afterwards a pilot engine from Cambridge reached the spot , and was immediately set to work in dragging away the wreck—the line being impassable both
v \ i and do-svij . _ That necessary work having been partially accomplished , men were enabled to get at the engine : and , in the course of two or three hours , suwecilcJ in raising the engine , when the mutilated remains of the unfortunate stoker , Richard I ' cake , were dragged forth . The body was burnt and scalded to a frightful extent ; it wa 3 placed on a litter , sad removed to the Falcon Inn , Littlcborough , lo awais the coroner ' s inquiry . The guard , after , behrj attended to by Use sus ^ eons who « ertt . bftu <' Ut to his aid , was afterwards taken on tcifre Cimbrid « e lIo-i « tal vrh ? rehe ^\ 1 iSmast ^ c ofgi-catsuifcrint . JJnruig laesffope&tions , those passengers who were iujurcd wt ' lireir . jveyed into the adjacent meadows and * f i ' ** , awl laid dawn until the necessary means had ar'JK-cJtoreiJiisvethemtotlieneighbouriiigtowus . They
received every attention from a lar-ie muster of medical gentlemen from Wendou , Saifron Walden , &c , and Satcr in the day were posted to their homes . As to the cause of the aeeiiicut , that has not as yet been satisfactorily explained . The rails appear * to have lrcen well secured , aud the previous trains rii . iniuuMip that day ha-. l not experienced any impediment . ' We are informed that it arose from too great a speed being kept up upon the incline , asi n the case of the accident that happened a few years ago on the Eastern Counties Railway , near Brentwooil , when the engine "jumped" off tiie rails . This point , however , will doubtless be settled by the evidence before the coroner . Air . Farnehough , the superintendent of die locomotive department of the Hue , was , as we
aremformed , on the engine at the time of the accident , and providentially escaped injury , excepting a Tioleut shock , lie states that he was thrown from the engine , and found himself but a few yards from the ponderous mass ; his escape may , therefore , be deemed miraculous . The escape of the engineer was also tnily astonishing , lie was standing between the engine and tender , with his face forward , when the first shock threw him violently against the drum of the boiler ; the succeeding shock ~ sent him , to use the expression of oar informant , " flying" over the back of the train on to the side of the cutting . On the intelligence of the accident reaching Shorcditeh
late in the evening , Mr . Hanson , the manager of the tni ! iicdeuart !! iciit ~ started off in a special train , so as to render acy assistance that might be required , and for the purpose of a-certaining the extent of injury , in order to report the same to Major General Pasiey , the government inspector geueral of railways . We ar e assured that had it nof been for the luggage- and li' -irse box that were placed between the tender and the carriages the greater portion of the passengers imi-t have been killed . In consequence of the immense concourse of persons that flosked to the scene of destruction it was deemed necessary to call in the aid of tke Hsscx constabulary force . For lioms the
rasiway excavator ? , of whom there was a large number at work , were engaged in clearing away the ivryciicd train nnd replacing the rails ; but it was nut iintil five o ' clock that this was accomplished .

accident . Indeed , he was particularly reserved , for even to his experience the point to arrive at must appear so far involved in considerable mystery . It appears miraculous how the passengers in the secondclass carriage , so dreadfully injured , as already described , could have escaped , not only without loss of life or limb in a single instance , but absolutely without a wound or a bruise worth speaking of ; yet such is the fact . Iu the first accounts which reached London , and flew up and down the line , it was stated that boththeguards—the Post-office ' s andjthecompany ' shad their Ices fractured . This is not the case . The 1 ' ost-ollice " guard was slightly stunned , and no more . The company ' s man had his leg broken . Be is now lying in the Cambridge hospital , his life safe ,
and with every hope on the part of his medical attendant that his leg will be spared also . It was set by Mr . Hammond , one of the surgeons of Addenbrook ' s Hospital . The seat on which he sat had the foot-board completely smashed . The poor stoker , Richard Feat , had taken this his first trip on the North-cast line as an experimental one , being a driver on'tlie Midland counties , lie was a fine young man , and , melancholy to relate , had only been married six months , lie is now lying at the Falcon Inn , Littlcbury , awaiting the inquest , which was held on Thursday , by Mr . Lewis , the coroner for Essex , at eleven o ' clock . The trunk and head present the most dreadful spectacle , being one mass of crushed and charred matter . The engine , which was viewed the last bv General Pasiey , was the least injured of
all ; the part of which was shattered , was the firebox , under which the poor stoker fell , and was crushed . It appears that he held on , unfortunately , for a moment or so . Had he been thrown off , like Young , the driver , and Mr . Furmough , the inspector ol the locomotive department , on the instant , in all probability his life would have been saved . It is worthy of particular remark , and challenges the attention of the directors of the various lines through England , that General Pasiey observed to-day to Mr . Anson and the other officers of the company present , that if there had been an engine behind as well as before , " the whole train would have been settled . " These were his emphatic words , by which , to those who may not see their force , he meant that the carriages would have been driven on , and every human being in them smashed to atoms .
lnE Late Accident ox tiie London axd Bin-Ml . NGHAM ll . VII . WAT . —DeATII OF Mil . DeAX . We rCgrct to announce that Mr . Charles Dean , civil engineer , of Gundy-street , Exeter , who had his leg crushed by the collision which took place on the line of the London and Birmingham Railway , near Chalk Farm , ou the morning of Tuesday , the 29 th uU ., * expired on Tuesday iuorninir , from the effects of that occurrence . The fortitude which the unfortunate < rent ! ciuan exhibited at the time of the accident , when informed that amputation was necessary , and subsequent to so painful an operation , left no doubt on the minds of his medical attendants , notwithstanding his full habit of body , that his ultimate recovery would be effected . The reports from day to day , up
to Monday last , were that Mr . Dean was progressing favourably , and it was anticipated by his friends that in the course of a few days he would have been sufficiently recovered to be removed to Exeter . On the afternoon of Monday , however , unfavourable symptoms set in , and it soon became evident that mortification had ensued ; the patient gradually sank , and died at a few minutes before two o ' clock on Tuesday morning . Mr . Dean , in addition to an extensive business as a civil engineer , was agent to the Fail of Devon , ou whose business he is stated to have been travelling to London at the time of the collision . lie was 43 years of age , and is understood to have left a widow and family . On Wednesday evening , at eight o ' clock , Mr . Wakley , ALP ., coroner for the western
division of Middlesex , and a jury of fourteen gentlemeu of the narisli of St . Paneras , assembled in the board-room of University College Hospital , Gowerstrcct , New-road , to investigate the cause of Mr . Dean ' s death . The jnry-room was thronged by medical and scientific gentlemen . Mr . Barker , the superintendent of the Birmingham Railway , attended to watch the proceedings on the part of the company . Prior to the jury being impanelled , Mr . l ' erry having been chosen as foreman , the jury were sworn , and the coroner , addressing them , said the inquiry was of that importance to the publie thst an adjournment would be absolutely necessary . Indeed he had only convened the inquest for that evening in order to enable the relatives of the unfortunate gentleman , Mr . Dean , to remove the body , as they were anxious to do so . lie did not purpose , ' therefore , that they should enter upon any evidence , but that" they should adjourn to some day in the ensuing week , after
having viewed the body . Th s-fs ^ aii ^ -WGuld- ^ S'fil nrobatohty be an exceeding lon pi . obablv ] ag ; tiie entire dn j ^ -SBd it would also be necessary to view _ tjie ^ p » where the accident which caused Mr . scan ' s death happened . It was impossible to come to a right conclusion in a case like the one they would have to investigate without doing so as it was neeessary where the lives of the public were involved , that the investigation should be as searching as the circumstances of the case demanded . The jury , accompanied by the coroner , then proceeded to view the body , which is that of a remarkably fine man , int it appeared in a shocking condition . On the return of the jury to the inquest-room they were bound over in the sum of £ 40 each to airai ' u appear on Tuesday morning next , at ten o ' clock " , to which da \ the inquiry was adjourned . The body of Mr . Dean " , it was understood , was to be conveyed to Exetei brthwith .
DARING MUTINY AT SEA . ( From the Hong Kong Register , Hay 6 . ) Mutiny at sea especially bv the officers , is so rare an occurrence , that the recent , and , for a time , successful attempt of the mate and gunner of the schooner Ariel to take possession of the vessel , with her valuable freight of specie , is the cause of much astonishment . The particulars of this triieic affair we have received from the \ ery best authority , and our statement may be relied upon . The Ariel left Amoy on Saturday last , bound for this port , . with about 100 , 000 Spanish dollars in specie onboard . At six o ' clock that afternoon she was off Chapel Island ; after taking the bearings of the island , and giving a course of Xanioa , Captain Macfarlane being
indisposed , and requiring to be on deck during a great part of the night , went below to his cabin for a short rest . At half-past eight he was disturbed by the voice of the chief officer , Mr . Wilkinson , whosliouted in an unusual tone . " Captain Macfarlaue , you are wanted on deck . " Captain Macfarlane obeyed the summons . Upon getting on deck the companion was closed by the mate and gunner , who were each armed with a brace of pistols . They told the captain that it was their wish , and thatof thecrcw , that iicshould take the vessel to Singapore , and that they had altered their course from SW . toS . They proposed that he should join them , offered him ft large shave of tuc money on board , and stated that from the Ariel ' s sailing qualities they could commit piracy with
little risk ot being captured . Though his life was at stake , the captain retused to join them . They then ordered his buelcr to bring all the arms from his cabin , con-. inuing their persuasions to job in their lawless intention to rob their employers , and afterwards to fit the vessel out as a regular pirate . Captain Macfarlane pointed out to them the heinous crime which they were committing , and the fearful penalty they would 'incur ; he also promised that they should be forgiven , provided they gave up the attempt—but they were obdurate , and resolved to carry out their villanous plans . The mate said he would spare the captain ' s life ; stating that while asleep in his cabin lie had intended to shoot him , and even pointed a pistol dow n the skylight for the purpose , but could not bring himself ' ' ^ ; ^ | " ' ; J z
to commit such a cowardl y action as to shoot a man asleep . lie also stated that any attempt at rescuing the vessel would be certain death , as the crew ( ManiU lamcu ) had all joined himself and the gunner , who . with the captain and one lad , were the only Europeans on board . After some further convei-sat ' on , they promised to land the captain , also to spare the lives of his attendants , though they said they would bo compelled to kill some who were on board , for their own safety . At ten o ' clock the main hatch was taken off , and it was purposed to confine Captain Maefarlanc in the hole ; he requested that they would « ive him his own cabin , and after some hesitation thev asrreed to make that his prison . Previous to « oin " ' bi-knv the captain made another attempt to dissuade |) f ' _ ' » ¦¦ | lr '" 'U , '• i =
them , but it was of no avail . They said they had nv . uk up their minds to the step they had taken for sine time , and only awaited a favourable opportunity . They also mentioned , that others in Iloasr Kong had it in contemplation to capture the Ariel " ; that an European , whose name is before us , was then close at hand in a lorcha , having a crew of forty me : ' ., expressly iittctl out for that purpose , and that , failing i ; i his success , there were people in lloiv Kong who intended capturing the Ariel , with the {• ik-per Celestial . This part of the statement must be taken with caution : they , however save the name of the ringleader of the pirates in the lorcha . who ' j ' ^ ! = . jj ty ^ V ° ^ ; u
it appears , oik-red to ship o i board the Ariel . At daylight oa the morning of the J' / th , Captain Macfarlanc forced open the door of his cabin , ami went on deck . Tiie ship ' s head was then S . W . by \ V . At eight , breakfast was sent into his cabin , t ! te Ariel , then running before a fine N . E . wind . Attcn , liesont lor . the mate and requested that thev would nivehim the long boat , or put him on board a ' junk . This was refused , tiie mate saying that he { the captain ) would get to Hong ivong too soon for them . lie promised to put him on board a junk at nightfall , also that he would give up all his personal property . At noon , the mate came again into the cantain ' s cabin , tclHnir him to make himself comfortable until the vessel < rofc ^ _ . Vt . . j lit , „ 1 * 1 ed | , g ,, ' r
to Singapore . lie expressed his determination t « throw the treasure overboard if pursued—the assurance that the captain ' s life would be spared was aaain renewed . In the afternoon , the captain ' s Chinese servant , who was allowed to go on deck , told hi-n that the Manillamcn were not in the pic t , ami that they meditated rising upon the mate and gunner , and again restoring the vessel to his command . Abaut ten o ' clock they had matured their plans , and although without other anus than { he rammers of the guns and their knives , they : attacked the " mutineers , at the same time enabling thc . captain to . get on dec ! : through a window , aud arming lum ydtii tiie cook ' s ^ „ . < a , . i . 111 r , u . id ie ¦ l ± ;'

axe . The fight was soon over , the mate being mocked down with a rammer , and also cut with knives ; the gunner took refuge in the cabin , raising the hatch which covered the magazine , and threatening to blow up the ship . Captain Mac farlane had by this time got possession of a fowling-piece , one barrel of which was loaded ; with it he fired and wounded the gnnner in the thigh . The poor wretch cried out for mercy , but still threatened to blow up the ship . A lasso was got ready and thrown over his head , with wliich the crew hauled him on deck and secured him . The mate died of his wounds . The gunner was brought here , and has been committed for trial , after an examination before Mr . Uillier , the acting marine magistrate . It is pleasing to state that , after the affray was over , and the ship ' s course was again shaped for llong Kong , Capt . Macfarlane mustered the crew , and offered up prayers and thanksgiving
for their deliverance from imminent danger . The whole affair is a very sad , though a remarkable one . Mr . Wilkinson , the ringleader , was ayoung man with the fairest prospects before him ; his employment was , and is , the best in the merchant service , and had he behaved himself , would in all probability , in a few years , have led to a competency for life . The Manillamcn , contrary to the usual opinion of them , proved true to their employers ; and we doubt not , from the well-known liberality of the firm , they will he rewarded . Captain Macfarlaue himself , though placed in a most trying position , acquitted himself in a manner in the lushest degree creditable ; and however deeply he may regret the fate of the unfortunate young man whose life was the penalty of his crime , he may always look back with satisfaction upon his own behaviour whilst his vessel was in the hands of the mutineers .
BRUTAL MURDER IN MANCHESTER ; Manchester , Tuesday Monxixo . —Yesterday an inquest was held before Mr . W . S . Ruttcr and a rcspeciablejury , in one of the rooms of the New Bailey , on vicv ; of the body of William Clapham , who was a prisoner , but in the prison hospital . The name of the murderer is Abraham Twccdle , who was also a prisoner , having been confined for two months for neglect of his family . It appeared from the evidence that the prisoner , the deecasetl , and John Taylor Veal , were inmates of the same room and that the prisoner had been from time to time troublesome , and had often been rebuked by his fellow prisoners . On Saturday , about twelve o ' clock , there having been no previous quarrel , the prisoner was observed on his knees , as if engaged in prayer . On a closer inspection it was found that he was in the act of removing one of the iron cross bars of his bed . Veal
remonstrated with him , and told him he would report him , whereupon the prisoner drew the bar from under the bed , and aimed a desperate blow at his head . Tho deceased , who was close by , caught hold of the prisoner , and prevented the blow from taking effect . lie immediately turned round and struck the deceased on the head , and felled him on the bed , and whilst in this position he struck him with the same weapon eight or nine times , completely shattering his head to pjeccs , and strewing liis brains about the room . Having dispatched his victim , he turned , to Veal , but fortunately he got out of the room without sustaining much injury . By the assistance of Veal and another prisoner , the turnkey succeeded iu securing the murderer , who was locked up in a separate cell . He affected insanity , and at the suggestion of the coroner , the inquest was adjourned till Thursday .
