 "I spOse you will see by tho papers how | we all like to got drowned yesterday going across little bridge between the castle and the garden.

 1t was peSky narrow squeak for C.e and the President. He was riding over on great fine hOss, and was walking along by the side of him and trying to clear the way little, for

 they crowded upon us So, there was no get l ting along. aud hardly chance to breathe.-

 When we get upon the arch we stopped lit. l l tie bit for the crowd to clear away, when all

 at once l thought heard something crack.

 Says l, General, you better 60 ahead, I'm

 afraid there's mischief bruing here. At that

 he gave his hoss lick and pushed through the

 crowd. but we hadn't got more than rod

 before crash went the bridge behind as ali dOwn iD heap, and two tOll-houses On top of

 if. and as many as hundred fotks splashed

 into the water. all mixed up together. one top

 of t'Other. The President looked oyer his

 shoulder, and seeing was safe behind him,

 called out for Mir Van Buren, and asked me to run and see if he was hurt. ! told him he

 had forgot himself, for Mr. Van Buren wasn't

 iD the cO.Dpaay; but Mr. Woodbnry and Mr. Cass were in for if, fer l could see them

 aoundering about in the water now. Run. 1 Malor, said the President. run and give them

 lift. Take Mr. Wo"dLury first, you know 1 can't spare him.

 l So there was parcel of us took hold and

 Eent Eo hauling '-m out of the water like sO 1 many 0rowned rats. But we got 'em al! out alive. except a few young things they called dAndIes; they looked sO after they got vetall Over that we coulda'i make out whether they were alive OF dead. So we laid 'sm upfo dry and ieft 'em; and went on tO help the Pres ident resisw the troops on the battery as they cali it; and grand place it is tu."

 lWe are happy to leaTD that tbs announcement ol ths supposed dssib by drowHtHg, which appeared is ts paper lew dsys ago, was mistake, and that the dsiSgBished individual, Major Downing, is sound and well dOwn east. We have sifoWg hopes of hearing feqysaiy from him, touching his aud the Psesidenrs tovr.l- Y. Ado.
