An accident, which threatened most serious con-
sequences, happened on Thursday last, to Major-
Gederal Strutt, when on his way to Ter;ing,place. -
The horse, it appciirr, swooned in his collar, and by
falling, threw the General and his servant out of
the vehicle in so etalell a manner as to precipitate
them both into a perilous situation, being within
reach of the struggling animal, from which the Ge-
neral received several scratches and ~.ontusiens
upon the face and head. Mr. Lambirth, the Gene-
ral's old and confidential servant, was rendered in-
capable of assisting h a master, as upon attempting
to rise, he found that his kg was broken. in this
most distressing situation, did the General and his
man remain nearly half an hour, calling for assist-
ance, but although within a short distance of Ter-
ling Lodge gate, their voices wern not immediately
recognized by the person who resides there. In the
mean time Geserul Strutt, incupucitated as he has
long Len trout the lire-of akg and other injuries,.
whico he received whilst fighting the battles of his
country, could not assist himself. Their voices
were however at last overheard by the person re-
siding at the gate, end the General and his man
were shortly removed to terling-place, where me-
dical aid was promptly furnished,- and we are en-
abled to stat 4 with much satisfaction, that no
serious consequences era apprehended from the
bruises received by the General himself, and that -
Mr, Lambirth, his servant, is as well as the nature
of the ...jury he received will admit.
