Railway Accidents in Great Britain.

From the report of Mr. Henry G. Calcraft to the English Board of Trade, on the accidents which have occurred on the railways of the United Kingdom during the year 1880, and which was read to both houses of Parliament, we learn that the total number of passenger journeys during the year amounted to 603,884,000, exclusive of 110,000,000 journeys by season ticket-holders, being an increase in the case of the former of 41,000,000 over the preceding year, and representing upward of twenty passenger journeys each for every man, woOut of these man, and child in the Kingdom. 714,000,000 passengers during 1880, only 29 were killed and 904 injured from accidents to trains, being a proportion of one death in about 24,000,000 passengers, and one injury in about 780,000. The total number of persons returned to the Board of Trade as having been killed in the working of the different railways was 1,136, and the number injured 3,958; but the figures we have quoted above refer to passengers killed or injured from accidents to trains when in motion, the remaining fatalities and injuries being due to casualties of various kinds. As things stand, it is evidently safer to travel in a railway carriage than to walk the streets of London, where, as has often been shown, there are more deaths caused by accident or carelessness than on all the lines of railway in the country. In fact, out of the 118 train accidents during 1880, the number in which passengers were killed was only 10; while since 1872 the length of the railway lines has increased by 12 per cent, the miles traveled by the trains 22 per cent, and the passenger journeys 32 per

cent.

THE Directors of the Paramore Narrow Guage Railroad met at Little Rock, Ark., on the 27th ult., and consolidated the Missouri and Arkansas lines. The length of the line will be over 1,600 miles, its terminus being the City of Mexico.

A BRIDGE is to be erected on the line of the Bradford branch of the New York, Lake Erie and Western Railroad, across a ravine through which runs Kinzua Creek, that will be 301 feet high and 2,250 feet long. The structure will cost $500,000.

THE report of the Grand Trunk Railway Company of Canada for the half year ending June 30th shows gross receipts amounting to over $1,000,000, and the profits to $358,000. First and second preference stockholders receive dividends at the rate of 5 per cent.

A CORRESPONDENT Writing from Concord, N. H., under date Sept. 22d, says that there has been for some time more or less discussion concerning the building of a beach railroad on the New Hampshire coast. One proposition, which has a considerable number of supporters, is for a narrow gauge linc from Hampton to Rye. W. S. Hills, of Windham, and others, advocate the construction of a road which should start from the Exeter depot on the Boston and Maine route, proceed to Hampton station on the Eastern, and thence, 24 miles, to Boar's Head; then turning along the coast to the Rye beaches and beyond, terminating at Portsmouth. There seems to be a general demand for more extensive railway facilities along New Hampshire's
