Th particulars are as follows :—Thersda evening he hitched up his team to the sleigh and taking his wife and children proceeded Rastward along the 14th con. to big brother josephis, intendingto go from there to the tea -meeting being held at Bethel church. Mrs. Whitfield and children went into the house and Mr. Whitfield was sitting in the sleigh hold. Ing the horses when 0y000gmao in the employ of Joeeph Whitfield came frotn the barn, where he had been shooting sparrows with a repeating, breech loading rifle, On miming to the side of the eloigh he was exhibiting the gen to Dlr. Whitfield and opened the breech, toolt 008 100 empty shell, allowing a loaded one to take its pinee. In some unamonutable way this cartridge was exploded and in. etantly the bullet sped through the side of the Weigh box, buffalo robe and boots into Mr. Whitfield's feet., cutting the top of the right foot and going through the sole of the left. The lead messenger brought rip against the iron stay on the sleigh, where it was afterward found. A, physioian was speedily seoured and the wounds dressed, and although it will be some little time before the patient is able to go to work no eerious apnea:00'10es are likely to enthe as no bones were inter- fered with. It was a close mill and might have resulted in death, but 880 are glad it wee no worse. The accident should be taken as a warning to all who oarry firearms, so that greeter care 1 woold be exercised in handling them. • X-Icourinetx.
