Thursday last. While John Down and wife, of Bethesda, Usborne township. were driving along Main street on their sway home, the breeching of the harness broke. The democrat in which thy were riding, ran upon the animal, frightening it The horse got beyond control, and after running a considerable distance, tossing the wagon front side to side, threw Mr. and Mrs. Down out on the hard road. They were picked up un- conscious. Mr. Down receiving a deep gash on the forehead as well as in- ternal injuries, while Mrs. Down sus- tained more or less serious injury. They were renioyed to Charles Per- kin's residence and adortorsuinmoned, who after applying restoratives had Mr. and, Mrs. Down taken home, where they have since been conflnedt;o bed. The horse ran home, a distance of four wiles. Ferree About 2 o'ciork Sunday morn- ing the fire alarm sounded. The brigade and citizens generally were soon upon the scene, and with herculean effort,in a very few minutes had the fire under control, and ex- tinguished. The unfortunate building is situated on Andrew street, and owned by Mrs. Geo. Eacrett. It was unoccupied at the time, and as there had been no fire in or near the build- ing recently,it is evident that a fire bug has been applying his torch. The house had gone.ehrongh a process of re- novation on Saturday, preparatory to a tenant moving in on Monday. The fire was started in the kttchett, which, together with the upper part of the Retia building, was badly burned, while the parts untouched by fire ae.e bmily damaged by water. There was an insurance sufficient to cover cost of repairing. Had. the fire not been noticed by a doctor, who gave the alatrin, the building would have been reduced to ashes. MAsovxc.--R. W. Bro. J.
