Whena couple of miles from town and at a point where two roade intersect at right angles, a team and sleigh in which were two men, turned the earner right in behind them. In turning, the sleigh upset, and, the driver losing control of his team, the horses ran away. Almost before they were aware of it the runaway team overtook the vehicle in which the young people were riding, and the horses jumped on the top of the back seat in which the Misses Sperling were seat- ed. Their gentlemen companions, taking in the situation, succeeded in beating the horses back, and providentially as it would seem, the young ladies were taken from their perilous positions without having re- ceived a scratch, and without further priory time a severe fright. The sleigh, however, is which they were riding, a as considerably broken, It was a narrow and fortunate es- cape 012 which all concerned are to be con- gratulated. Perth Items. —Mr. W. A.
