afternoon the horses attached to hack
containing several colored persons be-
came frightened, and dashed madly down
Second street. AS they neared the aims
house, and Just as they began to descend
the hill, all were thrown out with great
violence, seriously injuring an old colored
woman and a little boy. The wounded
were taken into house near by, and DR..
John j. Robertson was called in, who soon
gave surgical aid to the sufferers. The
escape was very narrow one.

THE CLOVER HILL MINEs-RECOvERY or
TWO BODIEs.-The work on the Bright
Hope Mine, the scene of the terrible ca
tastrophe of the Sd of April last, is pro-
crossing as rapidly as circumstances will
permit. The bodies of two white men,
Joseph COndrey and William A. Cole,
have been brought up out of the upper
level. They were at work in the extreme
northern workings, known as the Mine
level, which is one hundred and twenty
feet above the main workings, and where
no explosion took place. From the posi-
tion in which they were found, they were
doubtless making their way to the shaft to
effect their escape, when, within one hun
dred and seventy-fve yards Of it, they
were overtaken by the black damp and
died of sufiocation. The bodies were so
much blackened by the foul air Of the
pit that they could not have been identi-
fed except from their clothes. No traces
of injury could be found on them.
The explorations in the back workings
of the level from which these bodies have
been recovered, cannot at present be con-
tinued, on account Of the presence of
large quantities of gas. The lower work.
ipgs have not yet been opened.
