We aro informed by the SpringtklJ Kept.it lican
and Boston Trinscript, cf tha details of a terrible
accident which occurred on Tuesday, on ihe Wcat
em Riilroid, near Weslfteld M .si. Tho E.is'om
and Western trains came in contact, from tho fact
thai the train from the West wss behind its lime,
and the other tro n went on, the conductor hoping
to arrive at the in xt turn out brfoie meeting the o
ther train. The baggage-cars of each train wire
hrVnil. of course bringing the passenger-cars di
rectly behind the locomotive! and lendere. The
twn locomotives and two or three passerrper esrs
of each Irain w ere smashed to a itomp'ete wrrck.
The psFsei.gen were jammed and tumbled togeth
er in the ruina in dreadful coi.fn-ion.
We informed ihut eighteen or Iwenry have limbs
b liken ; and many moro are aevrnly bruise J and
l.ueralej in vaiious ways. Mr. Warren, Ihe con
ductor of the train from the Wi st, was s. injured
thai he died ihe next morning. The engineer of
that train e-caprd without much injury. Mr. 'Pay
lor, thu engineer of the !ipuin;fielJ train, is badly
wounded. A young UJy, niece lo Maj. Whistler,

We notice In another account tint a Mr. Brewer,

accident appears to have resulted from a blundering

(mp'irg to entice away and set at liberty ihe staves
of a Mr. Brown. A few such examples, we think,
