NARROW ESCAPE OF THREE CHILDREN IN
PORTSMOUTH. We regret to learn that two
children of Mr.. Peter Morten's, and one Of a
neighbor Of his, whose name we did not learn,
fell yesterday in the town reservoir. Plank
was sent some time since from the navy yard,
we learn, to close up this dangerous place,
but was removed to be used in repairing the
streets.
We now ask our Portsmouth friends in the
Councils, to take measures to prevent the re-
currence of what came near being most dis
tressing tragedy. @4.

NUIsANoE-The 3sregion of country" on
Crawford street, Portsmouth, in the burnt
district, requires either the attenti ~ of the
Board Of Health or some of the copperas sold
by the druggists. A most offensive e6aaUiitm
issues from the filthy place. and renders ne
cessary the tightening of the nose by the fore
finger and thumb. This we experienced last
evening in passing that pestilential district
on Crawford street. qessl
