HORSE KILLED.-On Tuesday last, as Mr..
Ephraim d. Evans, of Ridgeway, was'driv-
ing along near his farm, with his splendid
team of young horses, when he attempted
to draw them up to stop, he discovered
that one of the bits was broken, and he
was unable to control them. He held one
horse as long as he could, but the other
ran as hard as it could go, dragging the
wagon and all with it, and he was obliged
to let them go, and jump for his life. He
followed the team as fast as possible, and
came across them in about half mile.
They had struck stump and were both
down. He succeeded in getting one up,
and led it home, and although very much
injured hopes are entertained of its recove-
ry. The other horse had struck its head
against the stump and was unable to move;
it died in about half an hour. The team
was very valuable one, and the death Of
one of the horses, and serious injury of the
other viii be felt to be a great loss.
Mr.. Edward Kirby, stage proprietor, o.
Arena, happening to come along just after
the runaway, undertook to bleed the sur
viving horse, when through some means
Mr. Kirby was thrown down, the horse
falling across him and seriously injurine
him.
