Serious Accident.
A stoeeman named Thomas Steadman in the employ of Mr Alfred Buckland, yesterday about five o'clock in the afternoon, met with an accident which will incapacitate him for a considerable time from attending to his duties. Steadman was engaged in Mr. Buckland's large shed in Durham-street unloading a dray of flax when one of the bales rolled out of the dray and striking him across the legs broke one of them just below the knee.
