STATE OF THE THAMES.—At the meeting of the
Metropolitan Board of Works, yesterday, a report was pre-
sented by Professor Miller, which stated that, notwith-
standing the continued drought, the river had not been so
offensive as it was last year, which he attributed to the use
of deodorising igents. It also stated that a report had been
received from the surgeons of the Dreadnought hospital
ship, which stated that although the river was very un-
pleasant, yet no ill effects had arisen to those on board,
either sick or healthy. A report was also referred to from
Dr. Guy, the medical supenntendent of Milbank prison,
not s statinguffered that although there were 1000 inmates, they had
in any appreciable degree from the state of the
river.

TWIN BROTHERS DROWNED WHILE BATHING.—
On Sunday last a most melancholy accident occurred at
Dunbrody, near Campile, in this county, 'whereby two pro-
mising young men, twin brothers, lost their lives. It appears
that the brothers, John and Anthony Lynagh, with a num-
ber of other youths, were bathing in the river, when
one of them getting beyond his depth, was observed to be
sinking, and in danger of being drowned; his brother imme-
diately rushed towards him with the intention of rendering
assistance, but being unable to swim he also got beyond his
depth, and both brothers sank to rise no more.— Wexford
