For some time past the trains on the Victoria Railwayâ€"or, at any rate, on certain sections of itâ€"have been re- stricted to a speed often or twelve miles an hour, owing to the dilapidated con- dition of the track, the thorough over- hauling and repair of which was recent- ly commenced and is now in progress, two or three gravel trains per day leav- ing the pit a short distance north of this village. The rails and ties are in fair condition, as those which became defec- tive were replaced by new ones as soon as the defects were discovered; but the track itself. has sunk in so many places that a higher rate of travel than that. above mentioned would have been dan~ gerous, and the order “'go slow” was wisely given to all the engine dnivers on the line. It is several months since the speed was reduced, and persons who have occasion to travel on the road have been impatiently awaiting the repairs that have at length been commenced. As we understand it,.all the hollows in the track are to be- filled with fresh gravel, the tics being raised-sufficiently to allow it. to be shovcllcd under them, and. when a. level has been reached, bal- lasting will be dumped and spread , wherever nccded. Travelling on a N i railway at a rate that could be beaten by a good smart horse is no doubt very irritating. but passengers on the Vic- : toria railway since the trackbecame dau- gerous have bad the satisfacrion of knowing that they were Safe, and that. if they couldn’t. reach their destination ot' ununtfavuu-e. in order“ to» lnuko roonl for lie-VV' «It-signs and patterns.

Never mind, the two gentlemen, who had to stand lots of challiug when they got to shore, deserve as much credit for their perilous trip as if they had done what. they went out to do. WAâ€" Accidents. On Friday last Mr. John Hodgins, of Burnt River, fell from a load of poles and had his left. collar boae broken. He was turning a pole with a. cant-hook, when the latter, not having a. good hold, pulled the piece out, and Mr. Hodgins fell to the ground. He drove to Dr. Wilson‘s office at Fenelou Falls on Sat- urday and had the bone set. On Monday last. Willie Quinn, only son of Mr. John Quinn, of this village, fell backwards on to his head from a de- livery waggon in front of Mr. Maybec's store. He was carried unconscious into the store, where he soon recovered, but vomited constantly until Dr. Wilson was called to see him in the evening. He still remains in bed,.aud yet sufl’ers from- somc pain in his head, but. it is not expected that his injuries will prove serious. Henry Austin, eldest son of the late Silas Austin, met with a painful and possibly somewhat serious accident, while helping to ship- ice last Tuesday morning. A.pikc-pole,whioh one of the men was using, slipped from». block of ice, and the iron spike at the and struck young Austin in the calf of his right. leg, which it penetrated to its full length. He continued towerk for some time all ter receiniug the'hurt; but when he left fort homevat noon his leg pained him so much thnohc could barely walk. Since then he has been laid: up and has cut- fcred a good deal, but it is to be hoped that the accident will have no serious results, especially as he is very lame on tho-otherdeg from an injury he received Pike-poles appear to be dangerous weapons in unskillul or care- less hands, as Mr. Lewis Dcymau's eld- cst boy was struck above the knee by one on Monday last and slightly punc- turedâ€"just enough to make him feel sore and limp for a. few hours.
