SPONTANEOUS CONFESSIONAL case
of spontaneous combustion occurred at
Philadelphia last week, which may be
cited to put housekeepers on their
guard. The National Gazette gives
the following account Of the phenomo.
nea -
"On Sunday morning last, about
n o'clock, a lady living in Arch, near
Eleventh street, in Philadelphia, who
was sitting up with her sick husband,
was surprised by the sudden bursting
out of a fame on the dressing table,
on which lay half a quire of letter pa.
per, and on the top of it a news papek
The reflection of the flame from the
looking-glass made the whole table at
first appear to be in a blaze. Although
very much alarmed at so unexpected
and unaccountable an occurrence, she
had the presence of mind to take up
the burning mass ofpaper on the SHOW
ell and throw it into tub of water
which stood near. With the same in.
strument she smothered the blaze which
had communicated to the dimity table
cover, and the varnish of the table.
The only light in the room at the time
was a small floating taper, which stood
on a stand several feet from the Dress
ing case. When she had sufficiently
recovered from her surprise to %investi.
gate the cause of this singular occur
renee, she recollected that on the
Thursday before she had spread a rag
with sweet oil for a blister, and had
left it for few moments on the dressing
table, which had occasioned a grease
spot on the cover. The papers lay on

nfy. the man who receives his thousands OF dol

for the benefit of the Insolvent Act of the Dis.

to the world by a card in the Globe, with Reu-

piteously, because his creditors want their pay
for debts honestly due them. He attempts to
excite the sympathy of the Van Burenites by
stating that some JVhigi is prosecuting him, that

"pomp and circumstance" of a man possessed Of

o. Speaking of the lengthy session Of the le-
gislature, the Richmond Compiler says "They
have done some things which deserve our thanks
and some that do not. They have done much
good interlarded with evil-flling the cup bu,
giving the dregs with IT." The best thing done
by the legislature was TO adjourn, and for that
it deserves the thanks of the people of the State.
All the good, beside, might have been accom-.
piished, and the members have been sitting AT
their own fre-sides, by the middle of January
had the legislature attended TO the business that
of right ought to have engaged its attention.
The party" however, must needs consume
a few weeks Of the session IN legislating upon
the contempt offered TO themselves by Mr. Leigh
in his letter of resignation and, in order that
the Democratic orators in the General Assem-.
bly, might each have a fling at Mr.. Leigh, the
session was spun out till the last of March. No
blame for the length Of the session can attach to
the Wings, for they were SO far in the minority
as TO be powerless in any attempt to shorten il
or bring the Legislature to act upon any bust
ness that required ITS attention. The Vanites
had the power TO do as they pleased, & upon them
must rest the blame Of the uuproftabIness Of the
past session. We hope the people will look to
these matters before the. day Of election arrives.
and cast their ballots for men who will not de
sert the business Of the State 10 attend TO the at.
fairs Of party politics.

as was supposed, somewhere in the

THE RICHEST MAN ON EARTH

THE RICHEST MAN ON EARTH
The Paris correspondent Of the Alba
ny Daily Advertiser says Louis
PHILIPPE is without exception, the rich.
est mar in the world. He receives
annually, in ready money, a sum of
twelve millions OF francs. He derives
a e of perhaps twenty millions
more from the lands, forests and other
property of the crown. He is in the
enjoyment Of the private fortune of the
Orleans family, which should have been
united to the national domain, as was
the custom with former monarchs, on
their accession to the throne, but which
he was allowed to retain by an act
consented to by Lafayette, Lafitte and
the victorious insurrectionists, who lit.
tie knew what they were about, on the
v of his taking the oath to observe
the charter as King of the French.
The amount of his private fortune can.
not be less than ten millions of francs
per annIm. He possesses besides, an
immense sum in ready money, estima.
ted by some at between one hundred
and fifty and two hundred millions of
francs. He pockets the million gran
ted the Duke Of Orleans as presump.
tive heir TO the throne, and the private
fortune he is supposed to have given
the Queen of the Belgians and he has
none of the obligations with which the
civil list of Charles X. was burdened.
The latter paid nearly six millions in
pensions, which Louis PHILIPPE has
thought proper to suppress altogether :;
he had besides a large military house.
hold, a chapel hunting establishment,
&C., which cost HIM at least as much
more, none of which have been retain

A serio-comico incident occurred.
we understand, few evenings since, in
n OF the stores of our borough. A
young gentleman, of amiable character
and respectable family, apparently un-
der the age of discretion, who attended
in a store as salesman, while employed
IN putting off his wares and merchan.
dIze to his customers, was informed by
a blooming young damsel, that she had
not come to make any purchases, but
make him a present! The young gen.
tlemen was somewhat startled at the
proposal, but the lady without further
ceremony, laid a fine healthy child up.
on the counter, and told him to take
care of it ; that his title to the article
was indisputable /; that she herself was
now married, and consequently could
very well afford to make him a present
oft. So saying, she walked out ofthe
store, and left him in full possession OF
the child and its appurtenances. The
unfortunate young gentleman was I'M
der the necessity of taking the child
and providing for its maintenance
We hope this occurrence will operate
as a salutary warning, and as a terror
to all evil doors. Such an occurrence
was quite out ofthe ordinary line of bu.
sIness, and we dare say the young gen.
tleman never wants to see another sim.
