E. DEBERRY, on his way to Washington City, made a very narrow escape from drowning, on the night of the 30th ult., while crossing the Cape Fear River. The Raleigh Register says "that supposing in the darkness of the night that the flat had reached the shore, he stepped out, and was plunged into the stream, where water was 12 feet deep. He was rescue with difficulty, but sustained no further injury, we are happy to say, than a thorough wetting."
