From the Montreal, (L. C. ) Times Providential Escape. A man working on the brig, build in-; by Messrs. Scott anc Dousill; at the Current St. Ma ry, having ascended the Shears erected for the purpose of fix ing one of the masts, while up on the top, the foot-ropes which supported them gave way. Perceiving them to be falling. he sjave a leap over the side of the brig and struck with his feet upon a stage, which at the same instant was struck by the falling ?:,03rs anu precipuaiea to tnc Around, by which circumstance the van Iter reached terra fir ma without the slightest injury, not even feeling the shock of strik ing upon the stage, so instanta neously was it taken from un der his feet. His leap was from a height of 70 or SO feet: and upon striking the ground hu bawled out with the voice of a boatswain: iWs Well" and well was it for him that all was well. cross over to Lake Erie, and the Western parts of the State of Vew-York take a view of the Falls of Niagara, &c. and arrive in Boston about the month of June. He will remain in the United States to witness the enthusiasm of the people, on the next anni versary of the Declaration of Independence, and then contra ry to all bur wishes, embark for France. But let us hope that circumstances may change this amenlcu ulltimatam. Richmond U'hig. From the Boston Daily Advertiser of Monday. Granite pillars. Yesterday the second of the granite pillars destined to decorate the front of the U. S. Bank, reached State street from Chelmsford. The height of these pillars is about 22 feet, diameter 4 feet, and weighs 19 tons. They are the largest colums, made of a sin gle piece of stone, we believe, which have been seen in this country, and have therefore been regarded as a curiosity. They however will bear no compari son with those which have been erected in some countries. A friend who lately returned from Russia, has handed us a descrip tion of the pillars prepared for a church now building by the Emperor in St. Petersburg. They are of hard coarse Gran ite, 54 feet 3 inches in length, 5 feet 10 inches in diamiter and weigh 91 tons 6 cwt. They are to be 50 in number, and arc brought by sea from Finland. La Fayette. We had a re port that the General had been detained at Goochland Court house by an attack of the gout. But the subsequent account of his reception at the Courthouse proves this to have been a mis take. We also understand In private letters, that he arrived at Montccllo on Thursday that the meeting between Mr. Jefferson and himself was very affecting; clasped in each other's arms for several minutes; and that on Friday, the "Nation's Guest" was to visit Charlottes ville, the University, &c. The whole country, joyous and ani mated. A short repose amid the classic retreats of Monticello must prove a great relief to the spirits of hi Fayette. It has even become necessary to him; for his correspondence has so grown upon his hands, that it will require some exertion to get through it. His letters from Ivirope and various parts of the U. S. had accumulated to about COO: and 2-3ds of these will re quire answers. Enq. La Fayette's Bout. Much has been conjectured and said on this subject. We have no distinct information of his in termediate visits, but we learn from certain authority, that he will go as far south as New Or leans thence proceed up the Mississippi and Ohio rivers, to Piusourg slopping occasional- MARRIED, In Raleigh, on the 30th ultimo.
