Fatal Accidents.
--On Monday afternoon, a negro man, belonging to Mr. Felix Cross, of Hanover, was accidentally shot and killed by a youth who was carelessly handling a Spencer rifle, which he had selected from a pile of Government arms that had been laid aside awaiting transportation to this city, and was examining.
On the same afternoon, another accident, resulting in the death of a negro woman belonging to Mr. John F. Howard, of Hanover, occurred near Leach's station, on the Central railroad.
A youth had returned from hunting, and not desiring to carry his gun home loaded, fired the load off at the smoke-house door, when two buckshot passed entirely through, and striking the old negro in the neck, who happened to be inside, inflicted a wound from which she died in a few hours afterwards.
