BUDE.—MIRACULOUS ESCAPIL—On Wednesday'
evaning, May 25th, the very high spring tides, which
had rapidly flowed up our river for the last three et'
four days, tempted the juveniles to enjoy this beatilife'
scene, by sailing up and down the river ink, pleasure
boat belonging to Mr. J. Crocker, of Dudes, -This col-
lrcted a large group of children on Sir Thomas Aeland'• ,
new bridge as spectators. There happened to be tw°,
of the iron bars gone from the side of the bridge, and
here a little girl about three years of age, the daughtv,r,
of Mr. Gilbert, of this place, slipped through, end fell
into the current flood. The child fell on the lower side
of the bridge, and drifted through one of the arches sad
a considerable distance up the river before any
_o°,
came to her rescue. Mrs. Petherick made a kellittr"Z
attempt to save the poor little thing; she went Thro
water, but found it was too deep. There were a fir"
many others present, but were all lookers on, expressief
their sympathy, but making no effort to save the eilil°
At length two men, good-hearted and brave seamen
(masters of vessels), hearing the screams when ON
were a considerable way off, ran with all their Ea*"
and were soon on the spot where the little child T'B9'
with her head under the water and life almost extiact---
they plunged in and rescued her; and Mr. Denam,
geon, being on the spot, he ordered her to be pal;
warm bath, which was immediately attended to. ."0
child appears to be recovering, and is likely
live. The names of her preservers are Jermyn and Gill.

about the size of a crown piece, and in excellent pre-
servation, servation, thanks to a fine coating of rerugo. The °I
verse presents an equestrian figure of the bluff Duke °f
Cumberland, " in his habit as he lived," and looking 1,

well made out and the cumbrous military costume an
equipments of the period given in wonderful detail'
Encircling the figure is the inscription " Pr%
