Stage Accident. - On Wednesday evening last an accident occurred to the Newburgh Stage between this place and Union. The coach had got fast, as we understand, in a spring-hole or ditch, when the horses giving a sudden jump, broke the king-bolt, and thus, with simply the fore-wheels still attached to them, becoming extricated from the coach, they ran away; and when the driver found them, they had thrown themselves, becoming very much entangled in the harness, one of the horses was dead, and another seriously injured. Fortunately, the passengers escaped unhurt.
