DUNMoRE.

Yesterday morning about s o'clock an
old gentleman and his daughter were
driving along Drinker street, when the
horse, becoming frightened at an cleo
trio car which was passing, made a
terrific leap sideways, overturning the
carriage and hurting it's occupants to
the ground. The strain parted the har-
ness and the horse, loosened from the
carriage, dashed madly up the street,
being finally caught at McDonough's
livery stable. Miraculous to say,
neither of the occupants were injured,
and the carriage was but slightly dam
aged. The carriage was repaired at
Smiths blacksmith shop. Their names
could not be learned.
