SHOCKING ACCIDENT.

Yottir, 'Ana. 21. Never, we believe, bas it before
been the painful duty of a public Journalist to narrate so
afflicting an event connected with this city, as one which
occurred in the afternoon of Thursday last—one by which
seven individuals, in the bloom of health, and in the height
of enjoyment, were in a moment numbered with the dead.
Indefinite rumours of the shocking event reached this city
' about five o'clock, and when it was afterwards more dis-
tinctly stated that a pleasure-boat had been upset in the
river Ouse, near the Marquee, and that seven persons were
drowned—an accident of such fatal extent was scarcely
credited, and it was hoped that exaggeration had magnified
the evil, if the story were not altogether a fabrication.
The result, alas ! in this instance, however, proved the
rumour to be too numerically correct.
The names and ages of the sufferers belonging to Mr.
Iligg's family are as follow :
Ann Guthrie Itigg, the eldest daughter, in her 20th
year. _ _

Thos. Gorwood Rigg, the eldest son, aged IS years.
John Rigg, the second son,' aged 16 years.
Eliza Rigg, the second daughter, in tier 16th year.
James Smith Rigg, aged seven years.
Charles Rigg, aged siS years.
The other unfortunate sufferer, Mice Grace Robinson,
of Ay ton, near Scarborough, who was on a visit at Mr.
Rigg's, was about 19, and cousin to Mr. Robinson, of the
firm of Simpson and Robinson, tea-dealers, of this city.
Mr. Ellison, the Coroner, was on the spot very soon
after the accident occurred, and caused 4 Jury to he sum-
moned from 11oldgate, Acomb, and Poppleton, who as--
ambled at Mr. Benson's, the Black Swan, in Acornti,
shortly after eight, and having proceeded to the barn, and
inspected the bodies, they returned to the inn, and the in•
quest was adjourned to Friday morning, when, after evi-
deuce was adduced, the Jury returned the following ver-
dict :-4, We find that the deceased were all accidentally
drowned, and lay a deodand of 211. on the vessel,"

His Exec Haney Prince MotrnurzicoY, Aide-
de-Camp General of his Majesty the Emperor of Russia,
has been appointed Ambassador Extraordinary, fur the
purpose of complimenting the KING on his accession to the
throne, cad is daily expected in England:
