A LITTLE BOY named James Bateman nar- rowly escaped drowning this forenoon. He attempted to walk across a plank which is used as a crossing from Peake’s No. 1 to Queen’s Wharf, when he slipped and fell into the water, which was about seven feet deep at the time. He sank twice and was disappearing a third time whefi a young man named John McKinnon jumped in and rescued him.

A number of street arabs amused thein- selves toa large extent among Mr. New- bery’s sweets, on Peake’s No. 3 Wharf, yes- terday. They licked molasses from the puncheons until their appetites for the sweet were satisfied. They then covered

the clothing of the smaller portion of the |

company with it, and ended by pulling a bung from one of the casks and letting half the molasses it containe? run over the

wharf.

D. Banks McKenzie arrived in this City on Saturday evening. At 8 o’clock a pub- lic temperance meeting was held in the Re- form Club Hall. Owing to the brief notice given, ‘it was not largely attended. Rev. Mr. Falgatter was the first to address the meeting. He was followed by Mr. G. W. Millner, who recited a well-written original temperance poem in his usual tasteful and elegant style. After a few short remarks from Robert Shaw, Esq., Mr. McKenzie came forth, and, in a brief speech, related the results of his labors in the cause of temperance since his departure from this City. He will address another meeting in the same Hall this evening at 8 o'clock.

Asadscene was observed in a New York Police Court recently, when the widow of Ed- ward McKenna, killed about a week ago by the falling of a girder on the Elevated Kail- road, appeared with her three young children, so weak from want of food that she staggered and almost fell to the floor. -She had not eaten for two days, having given the last bits of food in the house to her children, and stated that, though her sad condition had been made knowa to the company in whose employ her husband was at the time of her neciddeh, they had re- fused to do anything for her. Her children were sent toa provident institution, but she refused to accept any aid for herself, saying that she ‘‘ could make her way.” This case seems to be another illustration of the truth of the statement that ‘* Corporations have no souls,”
