E5 \ MELANCHOLY AccIDESr.-on
Thursday morning last tive little boys
named Lowe and MeNary, hitched up a
Newfoundland dog in sled, and went to
take ride upon the SciOto river, near Co.
lumbus, Ohio. The ice unfortunately
broke, and both the little fellows went up-
der. When the boys fell in the dog made
most frantic efforts to save them. In tho
struggle, he tore himself loose from his toy
harness, and went crushing uperfect chan
mel through the ice to reach the body of
his little masters. Efforts were made to
resrCitate, but all nvniled nothing. The
boys. both Of them bright and beauti.
full children, were gone. 1t is most dis
tr"s'ing accident, that smites the parental
hearts OF two, most estimable families with
unutterable grief.
