Fatal Accident.-An Irish servant girl,
named Helen Menna, was burnt so Sc
verely last week on Thursday, by her
clothes taking fire, as to cause her death.
She was employed in the tavern of Mr..
L. 8. Stearns. in this city. She had been
cleaning cahdlesticks in the morning,
and while the family were at breakfast,
went into the dining room for tho pur-
pose of placing them on the mantle shelf;
and while Ia tho act, as is supposed, of
standing before the Franklin fire place,
and reaching up TO put the candlesticks
in their place. her apron must have come
in contact with tho FIRE, and she was al-
most instantly onveIopedin flames. Her
cries brought in tho family to her assis-
tance and although young man had
the presence of mind to seize bed-quilt
and wrap her in it, her hands and nails
were burnt to a crisp, and the skin from
her elbow was stripped offin the attempt
10 extinguish the flames. Her neck and
face were also shockingIy burnt. After
enduring the most excruciating pain for
forty-eight hours, she was released from
her suffering condition by the hand Of
death.
