a• shoemaker by trade, , and lately ar-
rived in town, was returning abaut 9 o'-
clock to his boarding-house he met
with an accident which might have ter-

had ascended from the street to the
landing above, and, being almost a
stranger he took a step too far, and
precipitated himself down the steps
which led into the back yard. When
discovered, he was quite insensible. He
was at once taken in the house, and
Dr: Sinclair .at once summoned. It
was now ascertained that the unfortun-
ate man had, in his fall, broken both
his arms. TJeder tl:c .are of the Dr.,
he is now doing as well as could be ex-
