FATAL 110 AT ACcIDENT. —A boat accident of a
very diatressiog oature occurred at Rotherham, on Mon-
day night, by which the lives of two peewee were mai-
heed, sad that of another person placed in immiomt peril.
It appears that about two o'clock in the enemas, Mr. John
Adams, a young an. residing in Rotherham, started, in •
small limit, up the river lion, oa a shooting excursion.
He woe aocompsoied by Lis two eosins, Edward and
Fredenck I Beardsall, of Rotford, Node, who were on
a visit to Rotherham. They proceeded a considerable
distance up time rawer and then turned, with the intention
of going to Mr. Adams's to tea. Between Dun Close and
Alds arc-hall there is • sharp turn in the river, and when
they were rounding that point Adams asked his companion
in rowing to change oars with him, and while they were
dotes so, the boat suddenly impaired, sad the whole party
were thrown into the water. A tearful struggle ensued,
sod after a few momenta they all amended in getting cot
the keel of the boat, but had scarcely dime so before she
righted herself, and they were aria isetantly sabotaged.
Edward Soudan again recovered his tumid of the boat, and
assisted his brother to clothe mme, but Adams bed by thin
time disappeared. tofortnuately the boat, which was •
very frail cue, a third time turned over, sad before Edward
Beenhiell could recover himself his heather too had snek.

and he was thus able to retain hi hold mi her keel. After
