mentable occurrence took place at the Oroomielaw. Glasgow. The

trader betwixt Glasgow and Islay, while employed in heaving a
puncheon of whiskey from the bold of that vessel, broke, and tall
ing, carried along with it a heavy iron block attached to it, both of
which struck with great violence Donald limes, a hawker, who
was standing by the a de of the vessel, and Donald 111•11iUan, the
mate, who was then at work hi the hold. Both persons were in-
stantly knocked down by the blow, which fractured in a dreadful
manner the head of the former and the head and arm of the latter.

lost no time in procuring a noddy, and conveyed the unfortunate
sufferers to the Royal liiiirmary.—Notwithstanding every exertion,
however, which medical skill could devise, 31' limes only survived
two hours and NI• 31illan, after undergoing the operation of trepan,
still survives, but to a very precarious state.
