BRIDPORT VOLUNTZIR RIPLES.—Mr. F. Gundry

Tits ARTILLZKY CORPS.—Meetings for drill are

half past six in the evening. The volunteers enter
with much spirit into the energetic instructions of
Sergeant-Major Collins. On Friday morning, after
drill, the Captain of the company, Joseph Giuidry.
Esq., read a letter received by the Lord Lieutenant
of the county from the War Office, stating that Her
Majesty had been graciously pleased to accept the
services of the Corps, which will stand third in the
county. A meeting of the members WU held on
Friday night, after drill, for the purpose of consider-

SKRIOUS ACCIDENT AT MESSRS. WIirTHAY AND
Co.'s Fat-rouv.—On Monday a very sad and unfortu-
nate occurrence took place at the above mill, by
which a young person, one of the females employed
in the carding of tow, was so seriously injured in the
fingers of her left hand, that it has been necessary to
amputate that limb at the wrist. It appeared that
the name of the injured girl, is Sarah Ann Crabb (en-
tered on the books of the mill as Elizabeth Crabb),
about IS years of age, and resides with her mother
in the Grove. On Monday, she was engaged in her
usual work at the mill, putting the finishing card
on the tow, when, from carelessness, as we are in-
formed. she inserted her fingers too far in the
machinery, the consequence being that the feed
rollers drew them into the cylinder. The poor girl
was instantly attended to, and the district surgeon
sent for, who immediately came, and examined the
injuries sustained. She was conveyed home to her
mother's house, without delay, and, under the skilful
treatment of NIL Cory, we understand that she is
recovering in as satisfactory a manner as could have
been expected under the circumstances.
