PEMBROKE. NARROW ESCAPE FROM DROWNING—About twelve o'clock on Sunday morning, the 19th inst., two young men, named Sumuel John and William Scoae, of the East End, went to bathe in the Mill Pond, in the culvert stream, under the railway embankment, Pembroke. John got into deep water and was nearly drowning when Scone went to his assistance. John caught hold of Scone, and both were seen in a dangerous position, when Mr Isaac Hearnshaw, coach painter, plunged in and rescued both. John laid for some time apparently dead. Dr Morrison was soon in attendance, and John was restored in about two hours, but is still very weak. Scone is very ill, ana not yet out ot danger from fright.
