.LONDON, October 4.-But few details
of the accident to the London and Edin?
burgh passenger train have oome to
hand. All the despatches received agree
in stating that the train was behind
time, and was running at a furious rate
to make it np. The Boeno of the disas?
ter is not far from Carlisle, the capital of
Cumberland County, and a train has
been sent from that town to bring in the
dead and wounded.
A later despatch from Carlislo says

pled to death on one night and fifteen
more mortally wounded. Mounted po?

SAN FRANCISCO, October 4.-By the
arrival of the China, and from her pas?
sengers, we have the following report of
the IOBS of the Pacific mail steamship
America by fire. Among her passengers,
are twenty-nine of the officers and crew
of tho burned steamship America.
Early on Saturday morning, August
24, the Amerioa arrived at Yokohama,
and daring the day landed ali her pas?
sengers aud cargo for that port, and
transferred to the Shanghai branoh
steamer what was for North China.
There remained on board the officers
and crew, two first class passengers, the
mails and 175 Chinese destined for Hong
Kong, ll o'clock at night, the Amerioa
was discovered to be on tire. She burn?
ed until the afternoon of Sunday, when
she was towed out of the way of the
shipping and sank. Three Americans
and fifty-nine Chinese were lost, besides
a number of Japaueso. 8300,000 in
treasure and a light freight remained on
board the vessel when Bhe was burned.
The ship had been coaling all day. Al
10 o'olook at night, all was reported safe,
when the officers retired. A little before
ll, the stewardess smelled something
burning, and smoke was discovered ria
ing from the freight dook, below titi
ladies' saloon. Tho alarm was immedi
ately sounded. Captain Duane was thc
first man in the saloon with the hose
but was driven baok by the smoke
With a sudden and furious roar, th<
flames burst forth, deciding the fate o
tho ship. The smoke prevented flood
ing the magazine, and attention wai
turned to saving tho passengers. Tin
Chinamen orowdod the ladder, whiol
gave way, precipitating them into th
water. Several unsuccessful attempt
were made to sink the burning ship b;
ehot from war vessels in the harbor.
A court of inquiry convened Augu6
31, Consul Shepard presiding, assistoi
by Minister Delong, Captains Shirl;
and Peron. After hearing the evidence
they found that the Are apparatus wa
in good working order, but that th
long time which elapsed before a stroac
of water was Btarted denotes a waut o
precaution or great tardiness in tho ec
gineer's department. If steam to th
amount of twenty pounds had been o
the donkey boiler at the time the alan
was given, and the fires iu proper oondi
tion with proper expedition in working
the fire might have been extinguishe
and the ship saved. Praise is justly dn
to the officers and crew for their ga
lantry and perseverance. Tho court :
tenvmcoJ that the fire was the result (
pPtention, not of accident. Tho induci
mont may have been antipathy towal
the steamship company or officers, or tl
faot that tho Chinese passengers wei
supplied with large sums of money.

A Washington despa! oh says the filling

casos, amounting to S32.000.000, might
fall to the Mexican ampire, aad the in?
