New-York.  We hear, that last week one of the stage waggons,
crossing the ferry and Kill Vankull, in a scow, some of the
passengers seated themselves in the waggon; but in
approaching the shore, the waggon was by some means
overturn'd into the river, by which accident two women (Mrs.
Morris, belonging to the play house, and her maid,) were
drowned.
