FIRES, PANIC, AND DEATH.

On Thursday morning the 31st march, between
II and IL o'clock, a fire broke out in carpenter
shop at the south west corner of Parrish and Mar
ket street, Philadelphia which, with the shop ad-
Joining of Mr Rackhard, was entirely destroyed,
together Win large quantity of tools, &c. 1t is
believed to be the work of an incendiary. Du-
ng the early part of the fire, the children in the
public school on Sixth street near Parrish, were
alarmed in consequence of the smoke with which
theschool house was enveloped, and the fact that
one or two mothers went to the school for their
children which resulted in a rush to the door,
when some fifty or sixty were precipitated down
the stairway, and the greater part OF them more
or less injured. Ten or twelve OF the children
were seriously hurt, two of whom are not expect
ed to recover The teachers endeavored to pre-
vent the rush, and were carried down stairs with
the current
The Ledger states, that the alarm created was
increased by dense masses of smoke blowing into
the room and in a moment all control over the
children was lost Some rushed for the stairs,
down which they threw themselves and were
trampled upon by their schoolmates, others
Jumped from thewindows, and all was confusion
and dismay. The consequence was, that several
children were severely bruised, and some were
so much injured that they not expected to
survive The lower steps of the stairs were COM
pletely covered with blood. We saw father car
rying pale little girl in his arms, who had been
trampled upon so that the blood gushed from her
mouth; and in tavern close by, little boy about
ten years ofage, the son of a poor Irish woman,
lying insensible, presenting most shocking spec
table being 50 bruised that his features were
scarcely distinguishable. We heard ofthree others
that were nearly in the same condition Il was
