A lad nanncJ William John. abou-t fourteen years of age, the son of David John, boatman, seeinsf the child in the water, without the least hesitation, leaped into the river, a depth of eight or nine feet, and kept trie child from sinking till some labouring men, who had run down L some steps several yards lower down, waded to his assistance, and the child was thus rescued from a watery grave. The r( lad's father, having asked him—"What made you jumn n over the quay, when it was so far down to the water, and there were plenty of men not far off?" he replied—" I saw v the child drowning, and nobody trying to save him."

AT A WEDDING.—At a parish church in the centre of this county, a youthful couple a few days since t presented themselves for the purpose of being united in the t indissoluble bonds of matrimony but before the officiating h clergyman had proceeded half way through the marriage ser- t vice, to the astonishment and dismay of all present, the bride r was taken ill, obliged to be promptly removed to a neigh- j, bouring house, and a nurse called in, when in a short time t she gave birth to a fine blooming boy 1 This is another in- t stance in which (to adopt the eloquent language of Cattwg) t the torch of Hymen cast its reproachful glare upon a preg- „ nant bride."—Swansea Herald. j «— J
