           Another Team Lost - On Tuesday last, Mr. Livermore,
         of Pensaukee, started from this city for Oconto, on
         the ice, with his own span of horses, two sleighs,
         heavily laden with grain, provisions, iron, &c., and
         a wagon.  When in front of Dousman's elevator, the
         sleighs broke through the ice. Mr. L. fell upon the
         ice, stunning him for a few minutes, and Mr. Jones,
         who was also present, was unable to render any as-
         sistance, and the horses were drawn back into the
         hole by the weight of the sleighs, and drowned. Most
         of the freight was saved in a damaged condition, but
         a portion was lost. The freight belonged to Tarleton
         Jones. Mr. L. is a poor man, and this is a very severe
         loss for him. It was a splendid span of horses, well
         used to ice travelling, and Mr. L. prided himself on
         his skill in navigating the ice.
