An accident occurred at El Baranca mine, in Mexico, recently which will occasion a great deal of delay and expense to the management. A large rock broke loose on the side of the mountain, which descended with fearful mo- mentum, carrying away the roasting plant, knocking down several buildings and destroying a good deal of piping. One woman was instantly killed, and a leg and arm cut off a Mexican miner, who afterwards died.
