An accident which might have been attended with very serious consequences occurred on Saturday last to Mr. C. F. Worth, landlord of the Travellers'' Rest hotel, Taita. He was driving in his spring cart at the time, and when near the Petoni railway crossing, endeavoured to pass two other vehicles proceeding in a similar direction, when the driver of one of the latter, having, it is said, pulled the wrong rein, his vehicle was as it were thrown against Mr. Worth''s (then just alongside), completely overthrowing it into the water channel. Mr. Worth was thrown violently out, and had three of his ribs fractured, besides being otherwise severely shaken. He was afterwards attended eo (sic) by Dr. Wilford, of the Hutt, and is now in a fair way for recovery.
