Mr.. Epirok -
Oar sapicnl Town Councillors have
recently enacted e.aw relative to bathing
n, the Town Beac in which Aci certain
hnurs are ekclosivey appropriated for Ia
dies, (and also gentlemen fin proper dre's
es,) and other hours are set apart, dnnng
which gentlemen may balhe with OF With
on, dresses. The regulation Looks very
well as il reads, but, in reality, The pro-
leclion 10 gentlemen is entirely Duli6ed by
The conduct uf snndry and divers females
who visi, the Beach at improper hours.
For the las, fortnight have in vain unad
,osobain bath uni,ualed upon by ie-
II dies; but from sunrise until nine IN The
evening, they are upon The Beach by doz-
ems, and, OF course, no gentleman wou d
ba,hc IN puris natnrchJus, while within a
dozen yards individuals of the other sex
were turning themselves into animated hy-
dronelers.
Every one knows how dsagrceable it Is
10 bahc in The comfortable garments
usually worn on such occasions, to say
nothing of the trouble AMI vexation of car
rying one S dress back and forth, or else
run the risk Of its heing contaminated by
other legs than those Of It's owner d; yet, un-
der the present arrangement, what can we
men do 7 Use the dresses thus violating
our ideas ofceanliness. Go without and
shock he eensibili,ies of some five and
twenty females, thus lee ,ming the Town
talk, and, in consequence, render ourselves
iab'e to visit, per furce, the new Pl.lory
recently erected in the Park, with the ad-
dlirnal honor Of being escorted ihe,eto by
our worshpful Town Councils two jan
z,r es, or shall We refrain from bathing
during the warm mon,i ?
would suGges, to the ladies # Newport
that il is no more than an act OF simple JUS
iice that they should defer their visits to
the Beach until after nine o'clock, A. Nj.
Common politeness should induce them to
afford the gentlemen the same facilities for
the enjoyment Of that great Blessing, cold
water, as is by general consent accorded
unto them.
|, for one, have come TO the deliberate
aud solemn conclusion, "thal balhe must >
and as intend to be at the baths before
nine in The morning, and to divest myself
while there of every particle Of clothing, |
most sincerely trust that all fcmal"s, whose
nerves are NJ, particularly strong, will
make the Ocean Cottage the eastern limit
of their walk. AQUA.

Mr.. Foster, who fell over the falls OH
the Catskill Mountains, last Saturday
morning, is said TO be in fair way to
recover. His leg was fractured d'ago-
nally between the knee and thigh, and
his lower jaw broken, with some slight
bruises on other parts of his body, but
no internal injury. His plunge was
tremendous and hrs recovery a!uSst
miraculous.
His escape, says the Albany State
Register, is one ofthc most rcmarka-
Bile we have ever known. He fell over
perpendicular pre,ipice between 20
and 80 feet in height. The rock from
which he slipped was somewhat shelv-
ing and as he slid few feet before
coming to the edge, this gave him a
projection forward, causing him to fall
some fifteen feet beyond perpcndicu-
lar descent, throwing him into the
stream, instead of on tterocks imme-
diately below. The water which was
four or FIVE feet deep, broke the force
Of his fall.
When hi. companion reached him,
he was sitting upon log in the stream
close to tile falling sheet Of water
lie did not recognize his companion
/ for some five minutes, owing 10 his
bewilderment Gom the fall, but shortly
recovered lis senses fully, and eyinced
great self-possession and even sang
! froid +; as all instance Of which 1t is
stated, that when in examining his IN
juries, sympathetic remark was made
upon the loss of his teeth, he observed
that it was no matter, as he was dem
/ tlst.

TREY faliacious idea, because the Reform

as well in the American Navy Ii can,
because o her and equally effective means
may be adopted to secure obedieG 'e to or

ED~ A singular death occurred IN
New Orleans on the ll,h instant. 1t
appears that lady named Ann Moniy
wen, into the drug store of Dr. Booth,
for the purpose of having tooth en-
tracted DIR. Booth wished to perform
the operation without administering
chloroform, but the lady oblectlng he
put the necessary quantity on her hand

suddenly called into his front office,
and left the bottle Of chloroform on
the table. Returning in few minutes,
he discovered that the lady was very
weak, and unable to sit up, and laying
her on sofa, she died in few min

undue quantity, died.
