      ArrucmiQ Accidekt—A melancholy eiroarjastance oocHrred at Barton on TueBday . A little nnrsemaid of Mr . D . Holdsworth , draper , wae drawing two of his children in a small carriage « n the waterside-road , when at ; a narrow part opposite the inn they were m 8 t thy » . cart loaded with gravel ; to make way for ; which , the girl rather suddenly palled aside the carriage , which toppled over and precipitated the . two children under a wheel of the cart , and they were killed on the spot , the head of one being crushed and the neck of the other . An inquest has been held by Mr . Morris , coroner , and a verdict returned' in accordance with the / acts stated . No blame is attached to the driver of the

      cart , who did all he could to prevent the accident The poor little snfferers were a iprl aeed four years . and a boy aged axteenlmoQihs . —Siam / ord Mercury Ox Wednesday morning much to the surprise of the people on the pier . of Tarbert , avery latgs Newfoundland dog sprang into the sea , and in an instant appeared with a little boy attired in petticoats shspended from his month . It appeared that the little fellow had wandered from the side of bis nurse and fallen into the sea , iwhere , no doubt , he would have perished , had it not been for the sagacious animal , as no one perceived the accident bat C » 3 ar , which apprised the bystanders ^ f what had occurred , by carefully placing the boy safe and sound at the feet of his nurse ea terra firman— Glasgow Gourieri . <

      FoBitJNATB Escape or Baron Pabke . —At Croydon Assizes , on Thursday , Edward McCarthy , aged 14 , was convicted of a burglary in the dwellinghouse of John Kerr , atSouthwick , and stealing two silk handkerchiefB , £ 2 in money , and other articles . The prosecutor is ! a baker , and bis house was robbed by means of some person forcing an entrance through a fanlight over the door . Prom the size of the window it was evident it must have been entered by a boy only , or , at all events , some very small person , and a day or two after the robbery the prisoner was taken into enstody , with the stolen band-Kerchiefs in his possession . The prisoner haB been

      several times convicted of felony . Baron Parke sentenced him to be transported for ten years , and as he was leaving ] the bar he made use of an expression tOW » Tds nia Lordship too disgusting to be repeated . The Judge turned to the jury , and said that , young as the culprit was , he was a most hardened offender . I His Lordship then handed to them a large flinty stone , which , it appeared , the prisoner had provided himself with before bis trial , intending , as he informed another prisoner , to hurl it at the judge in the event of his being convicted . The officers , however , fortunately discovered the prisoner ' s intention , and took the missile from him .

      Angling Extraordinary . —A few days since as Mr . Hughes , swell-known angler at Windsor , was spinning for trout near Datchet-bridge , he hooked what he at first imagined to be a splendid fish . The stream was pretty rapid at this spot , and the supposed fish was allowed to run out about forty yards of line . Upon winding up , and bringing the prize to the bank , it was discovered to be a faggot , upwards of four feet in length , in the interior of wiiioh was a fine eel weighing between three and four pounds . It appeared that the eel , which was alive and in beautiful condition , had been so entangled with the sticks composing the faggot that it had become regularly trapped .

      Exzhaobdinast 32 scafb . —Between nino and ten o ' clock yesterday morning , atroccurrence took place at the residence of Mr . Osbaldiston , ( lessee of the Victoria Theatre , ) at Balham Hill , which was nearly attended with the most fatal result , It appeared that Mr . Osbaldbton , having ordered his horse and chaise to be got ready for the purpose of coming to town to attend his professional duties , was seated in hia breakfast-room reading the newspaper , when his groom suddenly announced that the vehicle was ready : and Mr . Osbaldiston pnt down the paper

      and roBe to depart . jHe had just reached the door of the room , and was in the very act of crossing the threshhold , when the ceiling of the apartment be had thus quitted gave way and came down with a tremendous crash , in ; one entire mass , bringing with it a costly chandelier which was suspended over the centre of the apartment , and burying it beneath the ruins . The cause of this sudden and extraordinary occurrence has not yet been ascertained ; but it is supposed to hare arisen either from the decayed stated of one of tbe timbers in tbe ceiling , or from some defect in the construction of the premises .

      A Bite . —Alfonso Bombardi , a celebrated sculptor of the Emperor Charles V ., was a great coxcomb . Hegoi pnnished one day by a young lady at Bologna , to whom he took it into his head to make love is a foppish manner . She ; was his partner at a ball , in the midst of which he turned to her , and heaving a profound sigh , as he Jooked in her face with what he thought an ineffable softness in bis eyes , and we suppose with some fan 1 astio writhing gesture , "If 'tis not love I feel , pr > y what is it ? " " Perhaps , " said the young lady , ] " something bites yon . " This story got abroad , and Alfonso became tbe jest of the city .

      An Awkward Incident . —A great sensation was excited on Wednesday evening , on board the Queen , Gravesend steamer , on her passage op the river , on the announcement by the steward to the captain , that a lady of the name of Spiliman in the cabin required the immediate assistance of an accoucheur . Most fortunately there was a , medical passenger on board , Mr . Rose , of i 6 , Blackfriars-road , by whom , when off Blackwall , the patient was safely delivered of a fine girl ; though there was nothing on board suited to the occasion every attention was paid to the mother and infant , and on their arrival at London-bridge they were carefully enveloped and removed to their residence in a coach .

      Amecdotb op one of the Swell Mob . —It freqaently happens that the individuals who have to perform the necessary land sometimes exciting duty of tracing ont the minute history of grave delinquencies fall upon little incidents and traits of character that are not , a little amusing . A curious aneo dote somewhat illustrative of the manners and mode of hie amoagsv the more highly initiated in the art of irregular appropriation baa transpired in the course of the inquiry in the case of Anderson , now pending before tbe magistrates of this town . One of the most celebrated associates of the gang of adepts with which Anderson has been connected is known by the designation of 'HDashing Jemmy Grant , " and s very nhowy smart fellow he is , if all accounts may be credited . The head quarters of Bashing Jemmy

      are in London , but he oocasienally , when business requires , takes as . airing in tne provinces . Lately , when in Liverpool , be went to the Adelphi , and ordered dinner . The ? waiter produced the bill of fare , in which were set forth that go * dly choice of snbstantials and delicacies , for which the excellent hotel alluded to is so famous , Dashing Jemmy was expected to point out the viands of which he intended to partake ; but alas ! varied a 8 were hia accomplishments , reading and writing formed no portion of his acquirements ; but as he did not jack a most gentlemanly appearance , he , without hesitation ,

      pointed ent two dishes which he dewed to be served up . Tbe waiter stared , and asked him if he preferred those to the other dishes named in tbe bill of fare . Dashing Jemmy , believing he had ordered something very rare and expensive , and as he had entered the hotel with the determination of , as he termed it , " cutting a swell , " said at was a dinner he was mnoh accustomed to . The waiter took his order , as in doty bound , and Jemmy waited patiently for the dainties of which he was to partake . In due time the dinner was dished , but what ] was Jemmy's astonishment when the covers were removed to find that he was supplied with pudding and cabbage . —Liverpool

      CooMXER-lRRitATioN . —A dissipated woman , the wife of a shoemaker in GlasgoTy , attempted suicide by swallowing a dozen and a half of opium pills . A surgeon promotly applied the stomach pump , and as far as possible removed the poison ^ leaving the woman nevertheless with a strong tendency to sleep . In these cases it is customary to employ two police substitutes to stir the wretched patients about , and by every means keep them awake ; but in this instance other meaus were employed and approved of by the surgeon , and found to be equally

      efficacious . Thefn ^ oman , it appears , Tiaa a strong antipathy to her husband , Biniply beoauae he is sober , and she is intemperate , and on making his appearance her drowsy faculties were roused to a point of furious energy , and the man retaliating to keep the steam up . the intensity of mental rase triumphed so completely over physical drowsiness , that the husband was scion enabled to take his ytorthless helpmate home along with him . Last summer the same woman attempted suicide by taking oxalic acid , and was recovered by the attention of the police surgeon .

The following is furnished by Captain Banks , of the bark Juno , whioh arrived at Sydney on the 19 th of April from the South Sea Islands : — " Whilst staying in Juno Bay , the following ! intelligence was gleaned from an English lad who had run away from the schooner Mumford : —He stated that a party from the northwest harbourjof the Isle of Pines ; had , a few weeks before the arrival of the Juno , arrived at Leefo , from whom he learned the following particulars relative to the brig Star , of Tahiti , Captain Ebrill , whioh was destroyed by the natives of the Isle of Piues : —It appears she was at anchor , the captain and crew On

The cause of this proceeding was simply as follows : — A physiciaa , named Kobke , and old schoolfellow of the prisoner , happened to be present when the order for Rhamke ' 8 execution was read aloud iu the public market ! of Pinneberg . Mi Kobke , having always been of opinion that his comrade was insane , set off at once { to Husum , where the King happened

      to be , and laid the matter before him , with fuch reasons for his . belief , that his Majesty consented to stop the execution ! in order that a commission of medical men might decide on the question of the man ' s sanity . 1 After a sufficient investigation the medical men were unanimous in declaring that the man was pefeotly sane . The Minister of Justice then proposed to the King to order the execution which had been stopped ; bu $ hia Majesty , taking mto consideration that the prisoner hadi in being led out to excution , experienced the agony of death , refused to allow him to go through the sanw trial a second time , and commuted his punishment to perpetual imprisonmehtU-Gtoffonani .

      Sxaob Coach Accident . —On Saturday , the following serious stage-coach accident ' occurred at Uxbridge : —About eleven o ' clock , as the Prince of Wales Oxford coach wafc proceeding through the town of Uxbridge , on its outward journey , having sixteen passengers insidejand out , when about the centre of the town , new the Ram Inn , it suddenly came in contact with a waggon , belonging to Messrs . Johnson , of Uxbridge ,. by which the coachman ( Mr . Kirk ) waa thrown off the box with great violence , and the wheels of the coach passed over him . Tho horses being uncontrolled , instantly started off at full apeed down the town , upon seeing which , one of the outside

      passengers jumped off the ! xoof , the others still retaining their seats . The horses passed down the town with safety , and crossed the bridge dividing Middlesex from Bucks ; but immediately afterwards they ran the coach against the wall of the extensive mill of Mr . Stevens , jby whioh it was broken almost to pieces . Th « horses were then stopped ; and to the surprise of all who witnessed the accident , it was found that not one of the passengers were injured beyond the fright and a few slight bruises . The passenger who jumped off is also slightly injured ; but we regret to state that the coachman is not expected to survive . Most qf the passengers immediately afterwards proceeded on their journey in another coach . 1

      and others had suffered a few bruises , no mortal injury was sustained by the accident . The driver of the Queen , having an eye to business even in the hour of peril , succeeded inj getting hold of the whole of the passengers . On examination by Mr . Pettle , the coach-builder at Barnstable , it was clearly proved to be the work of some notorious villain or villains , the nuts and bolts having been removed from the wheel .

At the upper Cohosthe river then spreads " twenty-four miles wideband for five or six weeks first-rate ships migh « , sail over lands ?* that afterwards produce the greatest crops of hay and grain in all America , people who can bear the sight , the groans , the tremblings and surly motion of water , trees , and ice , through this awful passage , view with astonishment one of the greatest phenomena in nature . Here water is condensed , without

      frost , by pressure , by swiftness , between the adamant and sturdy rocks , to such a j degree of induration that no iron crowbar can be forced into it . Here iron , lead , and cord have one Jcommon weight ; here , steady as time and harder than marble , ihe stream passes irresiatable , if not [ swift as lightning ; the electric fire rends trees in pieces with no greater ease than'does this mighty water , The passage is about four hundred yards in length , and of azig-zig form , with obtuse corners , j At high water are carried through this strait , masts and other timber , with incredible swiftness anjd sometimes with safety ; bat when the water is too low , the masts , timber , and trees strike on one side or the other , and although of the largest size , are rent ia one moment into shivers , and splintered like a broom , ! to the amazent of

      spectators . The meadows for ] many miles below are covered with immeise quantities of wood thus torn in pieces , which compel tne hardiest traveller to reflect how feeble is man and how great is the Almighty who formed the lightnings and the irresistible power and strength of waters ! No living creature was ever known to pass through this narrow , except an Indian woman , who was in a canoe , in attempting to cross the river , above it , but carelessly suffered herself to fall within the power of the current . Perceiving her danger , ahe took a bottle of

      rum she had with her and j drank the whole of it : then lay down in the canoe to meet her destiny . Most wonderful to tell , she went safely through , and was taken out of the canoe some miles below ,- very much intoxicated . Being asked how she could be so daringly imprudent as to drink such & quantity of rum with a prospect of instaut death before her , tbe squaw , as well as her condition would let her replied — "Yes , yes , white maur—it was too much rum for once to be sure ; but I was not willing to loss a drop of it : so I drank it , and you [ see I have saved all .
