CURIOUS SCENE, A PIG IN TRIBULATION.
—On Tuesday evening last, the watchman heard
a heavy and awful splash in the lock-pit, appa-
untly caused by the descent into the water of a
felo-de-sa of the most detertained character. The
alarm was given. Every eye was straitened to-
wards the lock-pit—every hand extended to af-
ford
aid. Ropes were put in requisition—lan-
terns and torches were called for ! The splash-
ings and flounderings of the unhappy object of
solicitude were heard distinctly, and, at intervals,
a faint cry, and hollow gurgling murmur. One
anxious individual on the bank, declared that he
could see the sufferer—that he was a gentleman,
for he wore his hair powdered ! On a second
look, he exclaimed, No ! it is a bald poll ; the
unhappy man has lost his wig, in his exertions
to keep his head above water ! Anxiety and
suspense were at length put an end to by the ar-
rival of lights and ropes, when lo ! not a gentle-
man in a powdered wig—or a plebeian without a.
wig at all—was rescued from a watery grave, but
(rejoice, ye consumers of bacon I) a fine fat pig.
