DISTRESSING ACCIDENT.
A boy of eleven years of age, the son of Mr. Grant, commission agent, was rushed by a bullock on the Town Belt yesterday. The animal having escaped from a mob, leaped a fence into the garden and tossed the boy twice into the air. One of his horns penetrated the boy's right lung. His condition is precarious. Mr. Grant's son passed an easy night. Inflammation has been kept down by the application of ice. The doctors are pleased with the appearance of their patient.
