ArrEMFrED SUctDE OF a LApY-F E&rFUl
LEAr-hiRAcurous REscuE.--Y Yesterday morning
about 10 o'clock, young lady approached the
Suspension Bridge from this side, and when asked
for her toll, inquired the gate keeper how much it
was, and when told the price 10 the Island. replied
that she did not think Slewas going thatSfar, and
said she ought 10 go orhalf price as she was only
going to the middle of the bridge. He took The
TOLL she offered, and she proceeded on her way
When she reached the place here the iron cables
touch The railing, utneatly the highest part of the
bridge, Mr. Geo. Downey, the toll collector, OBJ
served her climbing up the railing and removing
her bonnet and shawl. He ran To- her only in
time to catch the maiitlla which she wore,
when she broke from his grasp and leapet to the
stream.below, distance, even at the present high
stage of water, of not less tIin serenity feet!
TlIecurrent was full of floating ice and herdet
struction seemed inevitable; she sank then rose
then plunged wildly the swollen terrent-sank
again, rose once more, and then foated onward
amid the torrent Office with nothing but her head
and one hand occasionally visible. Severalmen,
in skiff put out from some boat lying at the
wharf, the Fort Pitt, we believe, followed her,
gave her up as lost several times. but each time
renewed the chase and finally picked herlup alive
but insensible, after she had been in the water
nearly half an hour Restotatiyes were speedily
applied and she was removedtothe house offriends,
where, we understand she is gradually recovering
from injuries sustained from the ice and cold.
The leap, wasone of the nostdesperate, and the
escape from Install death the most miraculous we
have ever recorded or ever seen recorded. Had 1t
been n man, the would doubtless have gone down
head TO emost, struck tile water with his head and
never rose again. iHer clothes no doubt kept her
head uppermost Us she was falling, and buoyed her
upwhen she got in the stream, go e ssal!
The heroine of this adventure is a young un7
married lady whose name we omit at the s~lcita-
ton of her friends, and who has lived here Tor
some five years, supporting herself by her work as
a sseamstress. Those with whom she has resided
