DEATH FROM DROWNING.—Hermann Menz,
a little boy, of about three years old, son of Peter Menz,
residing near Kingsford, on the North Para. River, on
Monday last, was playing near the river at about fifty
yards distance from the garden where his mother was.
The mother having lost sight of the child, went to the river,
where she discovered him in the water. In her anxious
endeavours to get the child out, she herself fell Into the
water, and was in a perilous situation, until another of
her sons, a boy of about 11 years old, came to her assist-
ance. He first rescued his mother, and then took out
the child, who was quite dead. Dr. Nett was, however,
sent for, but all efforts to restore life were unavailing.
The child had been seen alive by the mother about a
quarter of an hour before she missed him.
