It would 9mm that Mr. Arnold, boat-, man, who Wss present at the time when torter^J danger was seen as he was blown away from the wharf, displayed great want of feeling, if not of common humanity. Young McManus, the messenger, told Arnold the state of the case, to induce him to go out to Porter's assistance. The boy received no reply, but the affair formed a subject of conversation b3tween Arnold and others walking from the end of the wharf, and he had made no effort to give the benefit of his boat-and skill to save a fellow creature from a position at that time oi^imminent peril," and to which, it is feared Porter has fallen a victim. Mr Arnold may be in a position to explain matters. It is to'be hoped so.[ - I
