returning home, through thirteenth street, the gig
was upset by coming in contact with pile Of dirt
and the Coroner thrown out, whilst his "indcfati-
liable deputy" had his hat crushed his coat torn, and
himself considerably frightened. This accident
undoubtedly from the extreme carelessncss Of
some laborcrs, employed in the digging Of well,
who had left the pile Of dirt in that exposed situation
without light or any Waterman TO give notice to
passengers, ofthc danger. Wearc, however, happy
to say that both these official characters were more
frightened than hurt, although Mr.. Wheeler has not
yet entirely recovered from the effects Of his fall
We hope that their escape will be warning con-
