NIEIANCIIOLY C.lqE OF PROWNING.—On the even-
ing of Friday week last, Mary, the third daughter of Mr.
John Bell, of Penrith, draper, was drowned while bathing
in the river Bement, near Yanwath Hall. The deceased-,
who was a fine young woman about 17 year' of age, had
accompanied Mrs. Bell and • servant girl to the Eamont for
the purpose of bathing the children. Deceased took off her
clothes and put on a bathing gown. She they went into
the water intending to have a plunge herself prier to bathing
the children ; but she lost her footing and fell into the
stream which filled her bathing gown with water, and car-
ried her rapidly away. Dirs. Bell and the servant girl did
all in their power to save her, and their shrieks soon
brought assistance from a neighbouring farnshense—the Red
Hills. Deceased was carried down the current about 30
yards, when she was stopped by coming in contact with •
urge stone in • formidable part of the river. One of the
farm servants immediately plunged in and brought her eut,
but she was dead. An inquest was held on view of the body
on Saturday night, and a verdict of "Accidental Death
returned. [This is one only of the numerous cases of acci-
dental drowning which appear in the provincial papers of
the past week. It is truly melancholy to read of the
frequency of these accidents at this season of the veer, many
of which—indeed most of t..ent—being the result. of a want
of caution on the part of the individuals, and of a proper
supervision on the part of the local authorities. Although
' accidents cannot of course be prevented, their numbers
clearly admit of considerable mitigation, were the proper
steps taken to slier that object.—Ed. E;prelt.]
CDRIIITCHURCII, BLACKFRLtItB. EXCURSION OP
TIM PAKISHIUSIMIL—It was lung the practise of the Rev.
Joseph Brown, the recently appointed rector of this parish,
whilst incumbent of Saint Mathias, Bethnal green, to give
the poorer part of his parishioners an annual treat, in the
shape of a summer day's excursion into the country. Ray-
ing found the plan to work well, he has introduced it into
his present parielt,and yesterday superintended the children in
the parochial schools, their parents, and others of the work-
, ing classes—the inmates of the union not being forgotten—
in an excursion to " The Avenues," a delightful spot on the
banks of the Thames, nearly opposite Twickenham. A
I special train conveyed the party, numbering upwards of
1,000, to Richmond, from whence they walked to the place
selected. The morning was passed by the younger
part of the excursionists Ice dancing and venom
games, and all appeared greatly to enjoy the op-
portunity. Towards the afternoon a considerable
number of the wealthier inhabitants of the parish joined the
party, and at six o'clock the children were collected, and
Mr. Brown having briefly addressed them, and a hymn
and the animal anthem having been sung, some refresh-
' mesh were dl.tributed, and the morning party proceeded to
the Blshmond station to return to town. The state barge
Ebelonging to the Goldsmiths' Company had been
he the accommodation of those who had been
by the unaccustomed walk. The remainder of the
dell then followed Mr. Brown to the Orphan Asylum
on Alwassessoam (a charity originated and maintained solely
by the neetiess et the rev. gentleman), le the garden
attested le whisk a cold collation was laid mit, to which
upwards of sae hundred ladies and gentlemen sat
down. The venal toasts having been dhpseed of, Mr.
