WATERINGBURY. On Thursday, as a dray belonging to Messrs. Leney had arrived in Wateringbury-street, the driver stopped to allow Mr. Picket, who was riding, to alight. The horse started, when Mr. Picket fell, and before hecould remove himself from danger, both wheels passed over his body. Fortunately no bones were broken.
