Accident on the Long Island Rail Road. Last evening tbout eight o'clock, the engineer (topped two of the locomotive on the L.

I. Road, at the junction of Fulton atreet and the Jamaica turnpike, to have an understanding in relation to the business of the road one o' the locomotive wa bound to Bedford and (he other to the depot in Atlantic one upon the north track and the other upon the south. A woman stepped up to the engineer on the south track and asked him if bt would take her the South Ferry. Ha answered that he wa going the other way. She then attempted to get on to the rear of Ihe locomotive, and was ordered ofl.

She staggered off in the direction of Ihe store, opposite Hewlett's. It was very dark. She then crossed the track, and went to Hewlett's tavern, and enquired of some persons standing nt the door, the way to Fulton Ferry. Tbey pointed out the direction and observed the woman to go the contrary way, recrossing tha track few leet in rear of the engine, which was backing down Atlantic St. to bring up some freight cart.

While upon the track the whistle of the engineer sounded the alarm, but it was too late. The gentleman at Hewlett's called to the engineer, that woman wat run over. He went back immediately, when the body of the woman wat discovered across Ihe track, both her legs literally mashed just belc the knee, her head fractured, nnd ber body much injured. She breathed about SO minutes, in which time she came to her senses sufficiently to say that her name was McLaughlin, and that she resided in Fulton, near Hicks st. She appeared intoxi cated at the time of the accident.

She was a large woman, about 30 years of age, hal on a light figured calico dress, two red Ggui ed shawls, camlet cloak, and a checquered straw hat. Her hair is auburn, and in her bosom was bras door key, and a small iron trunk key. Verdict Came to her death by being ran over by one of the locomotive, and that no blame can b) attached to the engineer in The Whig Mass Convention in Harttord Ct. We find in the Hartford Journal, an elaborate account of (he great Whig gathering in that city, on Friday last. There were thirty thousand Whig present, mnA three llt.

the procession were two hundred banners, all of them with excellent inscriptions. One borne by the Mechanics of Collinsville, had on it the re presentation of a brood axe, with tbe motto We cut Hickory, both young and The delegation from Winsted, was preceded by an immense Car, beautifully decorated with banners, and drawn by twelve yoke of oxen upon which, some blteen or twenty men were busily engaged at work at the various manufacturing employments of that flourishing village. The car was thirty feet in length, by ten wide. The machinery whicb moved the trip hammer, lathes, was attached to, and moved by the wheels of the The following were the different trades represented i Scythe makers, Fork makers, Tin and Sheet Iron manufacturers, Curriers, Shoe makers, Woolen machinists, Clock makers. In the Bristol delegation were twenty-six bean- tiful young ladies, with a banner on which was inscribed i i We're a band of Whig sisters, We're faithful and true; Vote for Hal of the West, Or we don't marry you." Every industrial art was represented in (his procession.

Judging from the description before us il must have been the most mighty and munificent demonstration of Whig strength cer made in old Connecticut.

The wrier evidently has a poor opinion of the intelligence of the farmers, for he commences hit letter th the quotation "Istacber it tn ass, bowed down between two burden."

We will warrant it to keep in any drawing-room. London Police. Police regulations have been carried almost to perfection in Europe.

We ne- ver hear of a riot in Vienna, or in the Russian capitals nor often in Paris, unless it it exalted to the dignity of a Revolution. London has long enjlyed perfect tranquillity. If there were no other cause to make the name of Sir Robert Peel memorable, tbe great blessing which he La be. flowed upon, hi country, in carrying through the 'trttem of the new police, would of itself entitle him to a high place among tbe benefactor of mankind. In London tbe police is a civic army, in numbers and discipline worthy of tbe name.

Without any of the insignia of military show, but distinguishable by a known and conspicuous badge, tbe police is to be found at every turning. With more than the eye of Argus, or the arms of Briareus, untiring in vigilance, and irresistible ia power, it tf omnipresent, ever ready to detect I and suppres the beginning of evil. It is eminently humane system. It i preventive and conciliatory. It seeks to soothe and reclaim, by the most persuasive and gentle influences, instead of irritating by tyranny and harshness the misery, which, ia a place like London, must' be workiag at the heart-strings of so many of its thousand of unfortunates, Bot ander this exhibition of forbearing gentleness there watches an almost irresistible power, tbe power of law, of numbers, of onion, of systematic and scientific organization.

When the gentler remedies have failed, this power is called into instant and effi-. cienl aclioa. There is no force which the dan-, gerous dam can command, that would resist it (or a moment. The consequence is, the street of London are sale and peaceful. The defence 1.

Th rob-1 ber, the thief, the ruffian shrink into dorkaes.

A riot in London would, we presume, be almost impossible. The streets of London are more safe for the defenceless and th weak, than are those of most Americas town of any eonstdcjabl nagnitad.
