EXPLOSION OF A BOTTLE.—AII accident hap•
pened the other day in Portwood, from the expansive power
of steam. A Mrs. Moores, residing at Heald's Buildings,
imprudently placed a stone bottle full of water, well corked,
into the oven, for the purpose of being heated, we suppose.
In a short time, the water having the usual inclination to ex-
pand, and the force being augmented by the internal forma-
tion of steam, the bottle burst with a great explosion, into a
thousand pieces, carrying away a part of the oven into the
yard, a distance of ten yards. Mrs. Moores was sitting with
her child near to the oven ; and both fortunately escaped with
injuries only, from which they are rapidly recovering.

Another most shocking accident from clothes taking
fire occurred in the Pea Field, Lakenham, on Tuesday last
a woman of the name of Clarke went out to draw a pail of
water from a well, leaving her child about four years old in the
room ; during her short absence the little girl (who was not
dressed) it is supposed approached the grate, or some spark
fell upon her chemise, for on the mother's return she fouud
the child with its eyes burnt out of the head, and otherwise so
dreadfully injured that she was immediately taken to the hos-
pital. Death, however, put an end to the poor infant's suf.
ferings the same night. —Norfolh Chronicle.
Jerome Bonaparte, says the Courrier Francais,
latterly known as the Prince de Montfort; was born at Ajaccio,
on the 15th of December, 1784. He came to France with
his family in 1793, and commenced his, studies at the College
of Juilly. He took part in the expedition of St. Domingo, in
1801, as Lieutenant of a ship of the line, and afterwards saw
service in some other maritime expeditions. At a later period
he entered the army and made several campaigns with the Ern,
peror. After the peace of Tilsit, he espoused on the 15th of
August, 1807, the Princess Frederica, Catherina, daughter of
the King of Wurtemberg, and was himself proclaimed King of
Westphalia three days after his marriage. Having fallen with
Napoleon, he with difficulty succeeded in reaching the Court
of his father-in-law, where he escaped the persecutions to
which all the other members of his family were exposed under
the restoration. The Prince de Montfort lived totally in re-
tirement, and was universally beloved. For the last few
months he had been travelling with his daughters in Italy,
where he died at the age of 53.

On Sunday evening, as the Commerce steam-boat
was off the Isle of Wight, she was discovered to be on fire in
the engine-room ; at the same time the wind was blowing very
fresh. On the alarm being given, a compositor named Hen-
derson jumped overboard, and although every exertion was
made, was drowned. The fire was speedily extinguished, and,
except the above melancholy result, no accident occurred.
