so much agility, he was like harlequin here,
there, and every where, when .required all the
others were well up, which will account for the

astonshed all who had to contend against it, il
was truly grand and excellent.


The arrangements for the day were very good,

AccIpLNr.--In the building occupied by Gilbert
Stokes 81 Co as an iron warehouse, corner Of Cliff
and John sreets, an accident occurred yesterday
morning which might have proved of most seri-
Gus character. The third floor, upon which was
piled large suantIty OF sheet iron and other ma.
terlals gave way under the PRESSURE and about two
hundred bundles OF that article were precipitater
TO the cellar below, tearing away in ts descent

that the construction OF the floors was d. detective :
the josts not having sufficient rest on the walls
otherwise, II wonld not have given way under a
weight OF about fifteen tons The damage is moi
Of very serious kind, and 1t is highly gratifying
that no person sustained any injury from this oc.
eurrsnce.
