A melancholy accident occurred en the 14th, at
the Teatro Malibran of Venice, where a company of rope-

A human pyramid having been formed, consisting of three
upon on© another's shoulders,
men rs, the man who carried
them all bagan running about with his load, when his foot
slipping, or catching somewhere, he lost his balance • in con-

dashed out upon the boards, and the second struck his breast
so severely against the ground, that his recovery was des-
paired of. The horror and confusion of the scene may be
imagined. Both the victims of this accident are fathers of
