j Until theaccident took place which has
clouded all the other events of Wednes-
rqay, pleasure ot the nignest order seemed
1 to be the partion ot the immense popu la
tion of this and the neighboring districts.
The town itself was never so full of
strangers ; they poured in duringlhe last
and the bebning of the present week
from almost all parts of the three king
doms. All '-the inns in the town were
crowded to overflowing, and the carria
ges stood in the streets at night, for' want
f room in the stable yards.
y Oh ihe mofiring of VVednesday the pop
ulation of the qwn and of the country be

way. The weather was favorable,? and
the Company'sttention kit the boundary
of the jtown vas the rendezvous of the
nobility and gentry who intended to form
the procession to Manchester. From be

the-accompanying cars for the directors
and the musicians, were seen through the
lesser tunnel, where persons maviingjahout
the lar end appeared as diminutive as it
viewed through concave rlas.ses. j The ef
fect was singular and striking. In d short
time those cars were "brought a
tunnel into the yard- which then

tached to the eight locomotive
which were in readiness beyond

this time the area presented a b4ulital
spectacle, 33 carriages being filled hy
elegantly dressed persons j each truin of

of different colours, the band of tie King's

a third band occunyins; a staa a! ve Mr.
Harding's Grand bland, at W'illia' o the.
4dis Hotel, adding to the livelinesiof the
hour whenever the other bands ceajsed.
A few minutes before ten, the dhchare
of a sun and the cheers of the ;isein'ry
announced the arrival of tiie Hake ot'

AJew minutes b-fxe 11, ail was rt?a

we started in brauTtfu! 4ty'o, V
mongthe deafenin plan lit r well ilresi
edr people who'" thronged the numerous
boosts, and althe walls and eminences
on. both sides of the line. Oursppe l r. as
gradually increased till, entering t' e O
lve M.iunt excavation, we rusiied ir.tn
tiie awful chasm at the rate of 24 miles
an hour. Tiie banks, the bridges over
our heads, and the rud-: project ng cqroer
along the sides, were covered with masses
I- 1 . .1 .1-11
of human beings past whom we gljdfed as
if on the wings of the wind. Wejsoon
Came into the open country of Broad
Green, having fine views o: Huy ton Pres
ent on the hilly groumof Cheshire on the
riirht, Vehicles of evpry description stood
iin the fields on both sides, and thousands
of spectators still lined the road, some
horses seemed alarmed, but after trotting
with their carriages to the farthest edges
they stood st'il V a if their fears, hid sub
sided. After passing Whiston, sometimes
going slowly, sometimes quickly, we ob
served that a vista formed by ! several
bridges crossing the road gave a pleasing
erfect to the view Under Kajnhii! bridge,
which like all the others, was crowded
with spectators, the Duke's car stopped
until we passed. j
At this place,Mr. Brethertcn had a
large party of friends in a fieldAiverlook
ing the road. As we approached the Sut
&n inclined plane,the Duke's car passed
rus again at a most rapid rate it 'appear
ed rapid even to u wno were travelling
at probably, fifteen miles an hour. We
had a fine yiew of Billinge hill fi?om this
neighborhood, and. of a thousand; various
colored fields. A grandstand was here
erected, beautifully decorated,and crowd
ed with ladies and gentlemen from St.
Keren's and the neighborhood JSntering
frqm Parr Moss we had a-igood view of
Newton Race Course and the stands, and
at this time the Duke was far ahead of
us 5 the grand car appeared actually of
diminutive dimensions, and in a short
time we saw them r gliding beauty Ly o
ver the Sankey Viaduct, frofcf" JJhich
a scene truly magnificent lay before
us. The fields below us were, oc
cupied by thousands who cheered us
1 .1 1
as we passed oyer the stupendous
edifices: carriages filled the narrow j
lanes, and vessels in the water had been j
detained in order that their crews might 1
gaze up at the gorgeous pageant parsing
far above their mast-heads. Here again
was a grand stand, and here agijn cnthii
siastic plauiits almost deafened us.
Soon, after we passed the ljurough of New
ton, crossing a Q'-e bridge oyer "the War

A murmur and-an agitation at oil t getting to a toraing place aridS the
a little distance betokened somethinj; a- I
larmiii'j!;, and. we too soon learned the na
ture of that lamentable event which we
c!innut record vyithout. the most agonized
leelings- - ,
On inquiring we learnt the dreadful
particulars. After three of the engines
with their trains had passed the Duke's
carriage, although tiie others had to fol
low, the company "began to alight from all
the carriages which had arrived. The
Duke of Wellington and Mr. Muskissou
had just shaken hands, and Mr, Huskis
son, Prince Esterhazv, Mr. Birch, Mr.
H. Earle, dr. WilUam Holmes, M. P.

et od'iii the direction of Manchester.-
Tiie w ' e of the procession remained at
'ta-i ariwtiier hoar, uncertain what course
;v adipt. A consultation was held, and
the D ike of Wellington was 9oon sur
rounded by the Directors, and a mourn
! u I g oqp of gentlemen. At first it was
vho'jght advisable to return to Liverpool,
nerely despatching one engine, and a set
! carriages, tq coqvey home the Lady
Wiiton, and others who did not wish to
return to Liverpool. The Duke of Wel
lington 'arid Sir Robert Peel seemed to
favor this course, others thought it best
10 proceed -is-originally intended, but no
decision was made till the. Boroughreeve
of Manchester stated, that if the proces
sion did not reach Manchester, where an
unprecedented concourse of people would
be assembled, and would wait for it. he
should be fearful of the consequences to
the peace qf the town. This tamed the
scale, and his Grace then proposed that
the whoe party shquld proceed, and
should returns soon as possible, all tes
tivity at Manchester being avoided The
Phenix, with its train, was then attached
to the North Star and its train, and from
the two united a Jong chain was then af
fixed to his Grace's Car and although it
was on the other .line of rqil, it was found
to draw th$ whole alpng exceedingly well
About half past one we resumed our jour
ney ; and we should here mention that
the Wigan Branch Railway Companv had
erected near Parside bridge, a Grand
Stand, which they and their friends oc
cupied, and from which they enthusiasti
cally cheered-the procession. On reach
ing the 20th mile post, we had a beauti
I'ql view of the Rivington Pike, and. Black
stque Rdge,and at the 2Ut tlve smioke o
Manchester, appeared to be directly at
the termination of our road view, Groups
of people continued tu cheer, but we
could not reply : our enioyment was o
ver Tyldesley Church, and a vast re
gion of smiling friends here met the eye 1
a3 we traverseil the fiat' surface qf Cha
Moss, in the midst of which a vast crowd
was assembled to greet us with thtfir plau
dits : and from the 24th mile post we be
gan tq find ourselves flanked on both
sides by spectators ; extending in'a con
tinuous and thickening body ill the way
to Manchester. At the 25th mile post
we met Mr. Stephenson returning with
the Northampton Engine.
In answer to innumerable and eager
inquiries, Mr. Stephenson said he had
lett Mr. Huskisson at the house of the
(lev. Mr. Blackburn, Vicar of Eccles,and
had then proceeded to .Manchester,whence
he brought back medical assistance, and
that the surgeons, alter seeing Mr. Hus
kisson, had expressed a hope that there
was no danger. Mr, Stcphenqn's speed
had been at the rate of 34 miles an hour
during this painful errand . The engine
being then. again attached to the Duke's
car, the procession dashed forward, pass
ing countfess thousands of people upon
house tops., booths, 'high grounds, bridg-'
es, &c, and our readers n4&tf imagine,
for e, cannot descriqe, such a movement
through an avenue of JWing beings, .an4
