A singular accident happened I

A singular accident happened to a
horse in Saugerties, MY, the other
day. In performing some act for his
personal advantage, presumably remov-
ing fly from his ear, the unfortunate
animal kicked one Of his hind feet into
his mouth in such q manner that his
own unaided efforts, though vigorous
and prolonged. were insufficient TO ex-
tricate 1t. In this condition he vas
discovered struggling upon the door of
his stall. The heel corks Of the shoe
were found 10 be caught behind his up
pcr teeth and imbedded in the roof Of
his mouth, from which blood vas flow-
ing freely. There was fear that the an
imal would break his neck before he
could be released. but be finally escaped
without injury, excepting q sore law
aud several looss teeth.

on salt bought in Alexandria. Yes, sir, and
from what have learned, man down in old
