DREADFUL ACCIDENT.-Yesterday evening,
about six o'clock, a fine boy who had been riding behind a
coach, attempted to get down, when he was struck by the horse
of a gentleman who was riding after the coach and thrown
down. Every assistance was promptly affbrded, but the child
expired in a few minutes. It is impossible to describe the dis-
tressing scene which took place when the mother of the boy (a
Acidow)'was made sensible•of her loss.
