REMARKABLE FEAT OF FRIGHTENED
HoRsE.-On Saturday. Aug. LIST, in the viii
lage of North Brookfield, the horse of Mr..
Lyman Brewer Of Spencer, driven by his son,
Oliver j. Brewer, became frightened by hav-
ing the wagon touch his heels, and soon be-
came unmanageabe. Mr.. Brewer rose to his
feet and was thrown headlong, two wheels
passing over lis body. Mr.. Luther Green of
Spencer, who was with him, finding that the
kicking Of the horse endangered his life,
jumped out the back end of the wagon. The
horse, then at the brow of bill, rushed for
ward furously and turning from the street
jumped into Il window of the mansion of the
late Daniel Gilbert, Esq. This window was
only two feet wide and four feet two inches
high. and the bottom of the window was three
feet two inches from the ground, and yet the
horse went through the window without graz
inga shoulder or hip. This was the more
remarkable as he approached the window at
an angle of about forty-ive degrees, and
there was a partition only fifteen inches from
the window on the side toward which his head
was directed us he passed through. Against
this partition and near the window was low,
old-fashioned secretary, upon the top Of which
the horse landed, and off which he came down
upon the carpet. With one kick he took
leg out of mahogany table, and sent his foot
through the sealing of the house. No part of
the window frame except the sill was taken
- .l, efr no hnuSa
eight feet from the ground, the horse remaining
attached to the wagon by one shaft and one
trace. The pictures, photographs, &C., upon
the secretary were somewhat suddenly dis
turbed, but clock standing upon the top of
the secretary was not thrown down; it only
had its front slightly grazed and the key taken
out of the lock but the time was found an
hour ahead. The horse was standing still,
and after being disconnected from the wreck
of the wagon outside, he was carefully led out
the front door of the mansion.
The two daughters of Esquire Gilbert, the
only occupants of the house until the horse
became one, were providentially in the Sec
ond story and were only somewhat startled by
| the crash when the new occupant SO uncere-
moniousy took possession of their sitting
room.
The young men in the wagon were not seri-
uusly injured. Mr.. Brewer repaired to the
drug store of Mr.. B. X. DeLand, where his
bruises were kindly attended to. The horse
was cut considerably by the glass, but not
badly hurt The accident occasioned some
excitement in the village--multitude repair
| ing to the house to see how small window
horse could pass through, and what WONDER
full thing he could do when so frightened as
not to know what he was doing. All seemed
thankful that the result involved so little of
calamity.

The CoLoR-BEAEER OF THE 9th MAssA-
HUsErTs.-The following incident OF the he
roism of the gallant color-bearer of the 54th
Massachusetts is related in the Tribune cor
respondence from Morris Island :-"Sergeant
John Wall, of Co. G, carried the flag in the
first battalion, and when near the fort he fell
into a deep ditch, and called upon his guard
to help him out. They could not stop for that,
but Sergt. VIM. IL. Carney of CO. c, caught
the cOlors, carried them forward, and was the
first man to plant the stars and stripes upon
Fort Wagner. AS he saw the men falling
back, himself severely wounded in the breast,
he brought the colors off, creeping upon his
knees, pressing his wound with one hand and
with the other holding up the emblem of free
dom. The moment he was seen crawling into
the hospital with the flag still in his possess
sion, his wounded companions, both black
and white, rose from the straw upon which
they were lying and cheered him until so ex-
hausted that they could shout no longer.
In response to this reception the brave and
wounded standard-bearer said Boys, l but
did my duty; the dear old flag never touched
the ground"

FIRE IN South WoRcEsTER.-Th factory
building on the old White and Boyden water
privilege in South Worcester, owned by Mr..
Joseph Boyden, mortgage in possession, was
entirely destroyed by fire Monday noon, Aug.
8. 1t was occupied by MeSsrs, Hawkins
Harrington, manufacturers OF wrench ham,
mers, and VIM. Mayo, manufacturer of satin
ets. Mr. Boyden was insured for S2500, at
the Suffolk office in Boston, and the Dorches-
ter, at Dorchester, on the bnilding, water
wheels, and shafting. MesSrS. Hawkins &
Harrington were insured for $4,000 at the Pres
colt office in Boston, and the Equitable, at
Providence. one half of it on the movable ma
chinery, betting, and hand tools, and the other
half on the stock in all stages. Mr.. Mayo was
insured for $1,000, one half of it on the nova
Bile machinery and the other half on the stock.
These amuunts-in all S950O-but partially
cover their losses. The building is a total
loss, but some of the stock was saved
in a partially damaged condition. A
large amount of the stock consumed was in
a finished state, just packed to be sent of. a
blacksmith shop, occupied by Messrs. Haw-
kins & Harrington, and two small buildings
short distance from the factory and used in
connection Herewith, were also burnt. There
was no insurance on them.
1t is not known how the fire originated, but
it was first seen upon the roof. The day was
an excessively hot one, the hottest of the sea-
son. making the effort to save the property
very trying one to the fremen, but they
worked manfully. Several were very badly
heated, and had to be taken home, but We be-
lieve there were no serious results.
