HORRIBLE OCCURRENCE.

@~It is our melancholy duty to record
another most horrible calamity by fire
one which involved the loss of human
lite and what aggravates the circum-
stance is the painful conviction that it
was the work Of some vile miscreant
who wears and disgraces the form of
man. On Friday morning last, about
2 o'clock, the barn of Mr.. MlorarI.
MILLER, near Mount Sidney. in this
county, was fired, and soon consumed.
with all its contents, consisting of about
nine hundred bushels of grain, two hun.
dred dollars worth Of hay-and worst
OF all, Mr.. Miller himself persisted in
the flames. in vain attempt to save his
horses all of which, five in number,
were consumed. A new Thresh ing
Machine, worth $3.50, belonging to
Capt. Burke. was also destroyed, besides
other property.
Mr.. Miller, we understand, wasana-
tive Of Rockingham, and had not been
much more :han a year amongst us. Al;
who knew him, give him the character
OF being one Of the most honest, indus
trious, peaceabIe, and inoGensive of men
SO that there could have been no mo
tive OF personal nature to impel the
peTPetrator TO the foul and fend Gk
deed. Mr.. Miller has left a wife and
nine small children, who are rendered
by this calamity entirely destitute. He
had just made the first payment, On his
farm, and was in fair way TO realize
his calculation Of ma king The after in.
staiments from the farm itself. But. a.
las. in one brief hour, how were all his
prospects blasted the hopes which
sweetened his daily tolls and rendered
MS couch refreshing! Gone, gone. for.
ever !-consumed to ashes with bimseJfi
and his family plunged, from state Of
comfort and competence, into the direst
misery and want! Oh, if,he fiend },o
has made desoIate this fair and peaceful
Eden should steal by to look upon the
change which his own hand has w1o,t
