Thursday morning last, as Mr. Ralph

was coming to town IN carriage, with
his wife and child, his horse took fright
at log in the road east Of town, and
began to shy of the road. His wife
rose up to get out of the vehicle, and
in the act let her baby fall over the
dasher, when the wheels ran over it,
killing it almost instantly. The child
was onIy six months old, and Its sad
fate is a source of great sorrow TO the
