ACCIDENT IN QUEEN-STREET.
An accident of an alarming character happened yesterday afternoon in Queen-street, which providentially did not result in injury to anyone, although the bystanders fully expected to find a good allowance of broken bones among those to whom it occurred. A hooded buggy, containing two gentlemen, camo down Victoria street at a good round paeo, and turning the corner into Queeustreet rather too (sharply, became overbalanced und turned completely over, throwing the horse completely on hia baok instead of his side, as usual in catastrophes of this nature The occupants of fcho vehicle, by good fortune were thrown violently out on the horse, and strange to say, escaped without the slightest injury. The horso also was unhurt, and the damage to the buggy very trifling.
