While driving home in a two-horse carriage, and when near his residence on Western avenue, the horses took fright and ran off, overturning the vehicle and throwing Mr. W. upon his head and shoulders in the mud. He was bruised considerably, we are informed, but was not seriously injured. The carriage was almost demolished. The driver escaped unhurt.
