AN ACCIDENT TO A FERRYBoAT.

Yesterday morning the ferry steamer
City of Portsmouth broke one of her
valves and had to be withdrawn from
the line for about two hours. The
Superior took her place and the Twin
city had to run between Norfolk and
Berkley. This caused considerable
kicking on the part OF the people of
Berkeley; also those of this city. They
could not see why that the Norfolk
County could not be put on the line
and not interfere with the travel be-
tween this city and Berkeley. Upon
inquiry it was learned that 1t would
take longer to get up steam on the
Norfolk County than 1t would to re-
pair the damage on the City of Ports
mouth, so the change was made for
the interest of all.
