PETERSFIELD.

     FATAL ACCIDENT.—On Saturday last a poor man, named Gold, in the employ of Mr. Thorp, of Froxfield, was thrown from a cart and killed on the spot. It appears that deceased was driving along a lane, when, from some unexplained cause, the horse took fright and ran away. Some persons who were near on seeing the horse and cart dashing along hastened to the spot, and on coming up with it found the cart overturned; and poor Gold under it, quite dead. Deceased was upwards of 60 years of age.
