An unfortunate accident occurred lately on
board the Saratoga. One of the men went
aloft to adjust something around the light
ming rod on the mainmast, and by some
means the iron spindle to which its point is
attached, became disengaged, and fell from
his hands. When he saw it about to fall, he
cried stand from UNDER" the sailors warn
ing to those below him. AT that moment,
mldshlpman T. looked up, and the point Of
the spindle entered his upper lip on the
right side, carrying away two or three of
the teeth, passing through the tongue near
Its base, and out of the throat inside of the
carotid artery on the left side of the neck.
The escape was hair-breadth,n for if the
artery had been opened, he would in all
probability have died in few minutes.-
