to his home at Newport when bis horse
took fright and he was thrown out OF his seat
on the sulkey and caught in such way as to
bring his head against the wheel which
struck it at every revolution, infictng such
injury as to render his recovery doubtful

Her name is James Barton. She will, VIZ
! have no doubt be one of the fastest boats
OF her class ON the Delaware. Mr. Krkmal

every instance, proved to be very swift.
