Remarkable Escape On Monday night, Con-
stable Sgman arrested young spark from New
Jersey for debt. Not being able to procure bail.
it being after 10 o'clock, the defendant was
about to be clapped into jail-bat while on the
steps Of the same, he contrived to eiude the Wig
lance of Sig,nan, rushed down the street toward
the river, and the night being very dark. he jun
ped into boat half filled with water, With no
oars, and pushed from the shore.
The current carried the boat down the Phil
lipsbursh falls, near this place, in the midst of
which it was capsized by rock. The fugitive
with a srea, deal Of difficulty clambered on the
bottom Of the boat, and Aosted about two miles
down the river, when he was providentially dis.
covered and landed. He ~as almost exhausted
from the effects OF cold and fatigue, and for day
confined to bed. However poor may be the &C
Communications of our Jail, they are certainly
preferable to an escape Of this kind.
