Railroad Accident
   This morning, at 8 o'clock, the up and down trains on the Jackson Railroad {New Orleans, Jackson & Great Northern RR} met on the same track, at Kenner's Station, about ten miles from this city, and a collision took lace, which made a considerable smash of the cars, tender and engines; but nobody was hurt. A locomotive and three cars arrived with the passengers and mails this morning, at a quarter to 12 o'clock, instead of half-past 10 o'clock, as usual.
