Severs accident.

--About four o'clock yesterday afternoon, Christopher F. Letellier, of Albemarle county, member of co. A, 14th Va. regiment, met with a severe accident, which, it is feared, may result in the loss of one of his hands. Together with some of his comrades he was loading up a wagon with old muskets, when one of them exploded, driving a ball entirely through the centre of his wrist, shattering the bone into many pieces. He was taken to the General Wayside (Seabrook's) Hospital, where proper surgical attention was immediately received.
