A SUCCESSFUL LAUNcH.-Last Saturday at
few minutes before one o'clock P. ~, fine
new schooner to be called the Jenny, built by
Mr.. G. C. Emmes for Mr.. Ferdinand Phuger,
was launched from the ship-yard of the former
gentleman. AT the proper moment the craft
ghded smoothly and swiftly without jar into
the element which is to be her home, and sat
as gracefully on the water as swan. The
Jenny, has fine model, although in her plan
more regard has been had to producing large
carrier than swift sailer. She measures be-
tween seventy and eighty tons, and it is esti-
mated will carry about 200 kegs of sugar.
We have not learned her proposed route.

A MARROW EscAPE.-On Saturday last, a
native man employed by Mr.. C. E. Williams,
while getting out of wagon on Hotel St.,
held pitchfork in his hand, the points
upward. As he alighted on the ground he
stumbled, and falling forward, one of the
tines of the fork entered the fleshy part of
his shoulder, just above the collar-bone, the
point coming out on the neck, under the ear,
while the handle was broken short off by the
weight of the mans body. The injured man
was Immediately conveyed to DR.. McGrew's
Office, and the wound dressed. The wound
is severe one, though not necessarily dan
gerous But bad the fork entered below the
collar-bone, instead of above, the probability
is TINT 1t would have been fatal.

ten Wilson.
The meeting was organized by the election of
Dr. Blake rs chairman, and FitZhugh Coyle a.
secretary.
The Chair briefly stated that the meeting had
been called for the purpose. if possible, of suE-
gesting some means for an amioable settlement
of the difficulties.
Mr.. W. II. Philip then read letter from Mavor
Bowen. in which he gives statement OF the at
settlement he is willing to accept l. that the
railroad shall conform 10 the law Of the city. and
80 arrange their track that il viii not interfere
with the grade established by law.
Mr.. Forsyth produced the elaborate map.
lately prepared by him at the request OF Mr..
Bowen, which shows the entire grade of the
streets from the depot to the northern boundary,
as they should be; also, their present condition
account Of the track.
MIR. Philip then defended the letter Of the
Mayor, and stated that the grades OF the streets.
as shown 10y the map were correct. That the
road as now constructed was not only contrary
to law, but was preiudicial to the rights and
interests of the city and the citizens, and ii il
could not conform 10 the grade should be re-
qured to remove.
Mr.. Garrett adyerted to the rights granted

that il had been cmincntly beneficial to the
city, but that he was willing TO do what was
right and proper i'm relation to that portion OF
the road going through the city.
Mr.. Cooke suggested that III the company were
TO run short line from Bladensburg 10 connect
with the Point of Rocks road, now IN process OF
construction. they could come down to their
depot by First street east on said road This
would obyiate all the difficulty. and no grades

bie for them 10 come into the city when the

of either the Corporation OK the prorerty-hed-
ers To alter their grades to accommodate the

Quite an animated discussion ensued. which
was participated i'm by most OF the gentlemen
