Painful accident. --We regret to learn that Capt. Frost, of the New Orleans Light Guard, was accidentally wounded in the eye on Friday last, while drilling his company in the bayonet exercise, at their encampment in the rear of Portsmouth. The men in the front rank were kneeling at the time, and Capt. Frost leaned over to coCapt. Frost leaned over to correct the position of a gun, which was wrongly held by one of the men in the rear rank, when an unexpected movement of the latter caused his bayonet to enter Captain Frost's eye. The wound was skillfully tended by the Surgeon of the Regiment. Though severe, it is not necessarily dangerous, and its probable that the sight of t held by one of the men in the rear rank, when an unexpected movement of the latter caused his bayonet to enter Captain Frost's eye. The wound was skillfully tended by the Surgeon of the Regiment. Though severe, it is not necessarily dangerous, and its probable that the sight of the organ will be preserved.-- Norfolk Argus.
