Fatat Acoipent.—News has reached his father of the sudden death at Cuba, W. L., of Murdoch McNeill, mate of the schr. J. C. Hall. Young McNeill, it appears, was in the act of seeing the anchor, which had been lift- ed, properly made tast, when a windlass pall slipping the weight of the large anchor drove the bars around at lightning speed. One of these bars struck McNeill on the head killing him instantly. At the time of the accident the schooner was bound for Philadelphia, but before leaving Cuba the unfortunate mate was decently buried by his sorrowing captain and crew. He was a son of Lauchlin McNeill, Vernon River, to whom, as well as his brothers and sisters, we offer our sincere sym- pathy.

WINDow Brzeaxinc. — About half-past eleven o'elock on Saturday night some scoundre} smashed six of the large quarter- iach plate giass panes in the windows of Longworth & Co's, Store on Water Street, and two smaller panes in the door. The glass was evidently broken with a heavy loaded cane. Mr. Longworth estimates his loss at $150. He offers a reward of $50 for the arrest and conviction of the guilty parties. A few nights previous several panes of glass were broken in the windows of the warehouse of Mr. Fentoa T. Newbery. This business of window-»reaking is becoming altogether too prevalent, and che police should make a de- termined effort to ferret out and punish the guilty parties.
