KICKED BY A HORSE.

Edward Cain, living south of this city about three miles, met with a serious accident last Thursday evening, which will probably result in his death. He was leading his horses to water, and had turned to fake them io the barn, when one of tneui that was still drinking, kicked at the horse he wasleading, but the heels of the horse sfnek the old gentleman in the forehead, crushing the skull and knocked him several feet distant. Medical aid was summoned, and ..upon examination was found that his injuries were of a very serious nature and which no doubt will prove fatal, as Mr. Gain is about sixty years of age. The physicians removed a number of pieces of the broken skull, and at last report his condition was very precarious. Latek.—As wo go to press, we are informed that Mr. Cain’s condition is somewhat improved, and that there are chances for his recovery.
