Nearly a Stampede.

What might have resulted in a seri-
Gus accident, occurred near Brewers
wharf between and 8 o'clock Satur-
day night, during the progress of the
fireworks. A large number of carriages
containing passengers, and a greater
number of people, were standing about.
Suddenly somebody dropped a lighted
bunch of firecrackers directly in front
of a horse, attached to one of the hacks
of 300 stand. The animal was so sur
prised by the discharge of the fire.
crackers that, for a moment, it stood
still Another carriage was backed in
to the horse, and then began some
pretty lively jumping. Carriages on all
sides began to move, and there was,
for time, promise of a stampede. AS
it was, private carriage, quite far
back toward Queen street, was smashed
by being overturned.
The drivers of the various hacks and
private carriages were so much occu-
pied with taking care of their horses
that the person who dropped the fire
crackers was lost of. People who were
standing in the immediate vicinity say
that the man was a sailor from one of
the merchant vessels.
