The company were more numerous this day than
yesterday ; the weather not favourable, but free from
rain.

A severe and an unpleasant accident happened to
Sir GEORGE PRESCOTTIOR the Lewes Course, on Thurs.
day. Sir G. and another Gentleman were in a whiskey,
and in endeavouring to pass, at a brisk rate, the rear
of a post-chaise, the carriage was suddenly backed
upon them, by which the shafts of the whiskey were
broken, and Sir GEORGE and his friend, by the vio.
lence of the shock, thrown out. The latter escaped
unhurt ; Sir G. snapped the small bone of his leg
his Lady being on the hill, he was supported to her
chariot, and soon after conveyed to this place. It
gives us sincere pleasure to add, that he is now con.
sidered as in a very fair way of getting the better of
the misfortune.

As Mr. and Mrs. TUURDY were proceeding down
Ship-street last night in a gig, the horse became
alarmed, and dashed off at full speed. Mrs. C.
threw herself from the vehicle, and was severely
bruized about the head by the fall; the husband kept
his seat, turned the corner of the street well, and at last
stopped the horse, free from further accident.

A Mr. and Mrs. CHANTLIM were both thrown from
their gig in one of the streets east of the Steyne, about
the same time, Mrs. C. being seriously hurt, but both
Ladies, happily, are •ow cuukiered u in a far way
of recovery.
