ACCIDENT.

John Wood, a respectable yong man,
was drowned in Seneca Lake, by the
upsetting of boat. The editor of the
Palladium says-"Iti is singular fact,
attending the Seneca Lake, that bodies
which sink in deep water never rise a.
gain. Within / . or 5 years past, pro-
badly more than the same number OF
persons have persisted by accidental
drowning in the waters Of the lake
and never, in single instance, have
one Of them been known TO rise again
to the surface. Many very ingenious
theories have been imagined to account
for this phenomenon-as, for instance,
that at the bottom of the lake, where
rise innumerable springs, the currents,
eddies, and buildings Of the water,
keep the sand in constant motion,
which, in settling, covers over the BIO
dies, and prevents them from rising.
This may or may not be one cause
but that the lake is supplied from
countless springs, no one, we think, will
pretend to deny

The delay incident to the publication OF
