The Bath Journal contains the following curi-
ous flatement _ _

About two months ago a cow belonging to
the landlord of the Crown inn, Salford, near this
City, calved a fine calf; the calf, by fome accident
fell into a ditch, and the cow could not extricate
it. A colt that had been fome time feeding in ti:e
fame field with the cow, took the calf by the ears
in his mouth, and dragged it out of the ditch for
the cow; and the colt is now fo fond of the calf,
that travellers may always fee the colt fondling
the calf the fame or more than the cow. Aboat
ten days ago the owner meant to wean the calf. to
do which he feparated the cow and the calf, and
put the cow and the colt in a field near the river
Avon ; the cow, miffing her calf, took to the ri.
ver, and fwam over to the other fide in purfuit of
the.cai ; the colt followed the cow; after come
time the colt took to the river back again in fearch
of the calf, the cow now following the colt. The
landlord being informed of the circumitances, came
to the ail:fiance of the cow, as fhe was nearly
drowning in croffing the river after the colt. The
owner is going to keep the calf.

A letter from Rothefay, of Thurfday laft, fays,
"A melancholy accident happened here yederday.
James Sharp, copperfroith, from Paisley, and his
wife. were paffengers in the Cotton Mill packet ;
and as they, with two lads, get into the boat to
get afhore, it overfet. The two lads (warn afhore;
the hufhand ftruggled hard to keep his wife's head
above water, but his great coat getting about hi,
head, rendered his efforts unavailing, and they
funk before the boats reached them. They were
both brought afhore, and the wife Piton recovered ;
but every means tried for the recovery of the hut.
thusd proved of no avail."
