In speaking Of the accident that happened

wrong in the particulars, as well as exception
able in some of the phraseology. We learm
that his horse was hitcbed 10 strong post, and
while Standing quietly, an OK team belonging
torDr. Berry of Bladensburg ran into his car
rage, upselting it, and thus frightening the
animal, which ran 10 the stable of Messrs.

and jewelry store. No one was in the carriage,
ofcourse, at the time. A friend asked us whai
we meant by 1.-The horse the DR.. was in the ha-
bit Of driving" which was the first instant
that it occurred TO Us that the impression was
likely TO be made that the horse did not belong
TO the DR.. We are glad TO learn that the da-
mage TO his carriage is quite small.
