ACCIDENT no rue WIFE OF Tue PRESIDE

ACCIDENT 70 rue WIFE OF TUE PRESIDENT
AND TO Mns. GEN. JouSsoN.-It is with.s regret,
which will be shared, We arc sure, by all OR read
crs, that VIC chronicle below the particulars Of M nc
cilent which yesterday occurred TO tho wifo Of tho
President and to Mrs. General Joseph johnson, both
Of whom sustained in consoquenceinjuries Of II paiu-
full, though we arc pleased i'll being able to add, not
Of u serious character
The twoindies, it appears, accompanicd--Mrs john
son BY hur little BON, and Mrs. Davis by her thrrc
clildren-wcre taking an airing in the private car
riacc Of tho President, and when in the vicinity OF
Dills farm, the two horses attached 10 the vehicle,
took fright from tho breaking of the pole hook and
dashed OF ut n furious pace, in the direction OF u W.
ry steep and dangerous d~eclivity.
The driver, u negro man fortunately retained his
presence Of mind. The animals were directed TO The
least dangerous portion Of tho road, and when tho
vehicle WAS overturned it tel! buta distance OF twelve
or fifteen feet, and was finally checked by u fence,
against which it rested. Mrs. Johnson, who sus-
tanned, VIC ara much panied to record, II fracture Of
the right arm ncar tho wrist, and Il cut VI some
severity on the side OF the head, was the first 10
niiylIt, and though suffering much pain from her
wounds, leroically uided the children from the over
turned vehicle.
Assistance was promptly rendered 10y II gentleman
who CHANGED to bu passing the scene, und who,
aided by tho driver, procured q small baud Cur,
aud proposed 10 convey Mrs. Johnson, the worst
injured of tho two, to the city; but that estlfnahle
lady firmly refused, and insisted upon having lIer
frict,d first removed to tho city for medical utten-
ton. Tho two ladies were, however, finally CON
yeyud to their residenccs-Mrs. johnson upon the
hand car and Mrs. Davis in her ea~rriage-where
DR.. Garnstt, the family physician Of the President,
WAS ut once called in, and aseertained the exact
extent of the injuries. From this gentleman We
learn lint Mrs. Davis received Il confusion Of thu
right shoulder and m insignificant cnt upon tile
sile Of her forehead. The injuries OF Mrs. johnson
have alruady been stated upon the same authority; I'll,
r,st Of the ian.ily happily escaped without ia.
slightest injury. Slrs. Davis is, We lcurn, in II deli
cute situation, yet it is hoped, 10y her medical attend
INT, has sustained no more serious INJURY lIal
| that utov, mentio4led. Mrs. Johnsol's fractured
limb was set BY several skiIllul army snrseons, all
| sh. WAS. NJ latest accounts, doing very well:
Tho escape oil the inmates OF tho carriage was
really marvellous, and is attributed chiefly I" th'
! prrsenco OF mind eli tho driver.

Honor to the First Regiment ...Diher.
emit Modes Of Showing 1t.

The Republican Convention contented
itself with passing a resolution commenda-
tory of the Minnesota First which cost but
a moments labor to write, and only mo-
ment 8 breath to endorse.
The Peoples Convention not merely ex-
pressed its admiration in words, but paid
the Regiment the most substantial complis
ment in its power, by selecting one of its
most gallant officers for the highest position
in the gift of the citizens of the State.
Such is always the difference between the
head compliments of politicians, and the
heart.compliments Of the people.
