Burning Of National Theatre.

About 3 o'clock, Thursday morning, fire
broke out in or near the scenery and dressing
rooms of The National Theatre, and in n very
short time the flames were pouring furiously
out of nearly all the upper windows. The
vast interior of the building must have been
well on fire before the mischief was discov-
cred. The flames spread so rapidly, that
although the bremen were early on hand,
their labor was of but little service except in
saving The adjacent buildings, Which were
chiefly of wood, and were not very badly
damaged. The building being of wood,
scarcely twenty minutes elapsed from the
time OF The discovery of the fire before the
whole structure was one sheet of fame, and
in less than an hour the large building was a
mass Of blackened, smoulderng ruins.
The edfice was built some fifteen or TWEEN
ty years since, chiefly of wood, the exterior
walls being covered with cement, in imita-
ton OF granite, giving il a uniform and fine
appearance.
Until the decease of the late William Pei
by, ESQ, that gentleman was owner and
manager of the establishment. Since his
decease the theatre has been under the man
agement of Messrs Wright, Fenno, and
Bird, essecs from William Sohier ESQ.,, who
recently purchased the estate of Mrs. Ptby,
for the sum Of $4,000.
All the scenery, properties and fixtures
belonging 10 the lcssees, were entirely de-
stroyed, and bu, comparatively a small portion
of the wardrobe of the actors and actresses
was saved.
the origin of the fire is not certainly
known, but is believed by many TO have
been the work of an. incendiary.

ACCIDENT. Joshua S. Osgood. was drowned
at Ellsworth, on Monday of last week. He
was engaged in his customary employment of
log driving at Tisdale's mills in E. when he
missed his footing from boom, fell into the
water, and being unable to swim was drowned
The Herald says-The causalty is rendered the
more distressing by the fact that the deceased
was within sight of his home, where his young
wife was watching him and saw the fatal ac
cident. He was native of Bluehill and bore
an excellent charater. He had been married
but two years.

A Story for Boys.

1t is related by Persian mother that on
giving her son forty pieces of silver as his
portion, she made him swear never to tell n
lie, and said, $50 my son, consirn thee
to God, and we will not meet again till the
day of Judgment"
Inc youth went away, and the party he
travelled with was assaulted by robbers.
One fellow asked the boy what he had
got, and he said, forty dnars are sewed ND
in my garments"
He laughed thinking he tested.
Another asked him the same question and
received the same answer.
AT last the chief called him, and asked
him the same question, and he said, a have
told two of your people already that had
forty dinars sewcd up in my clothes"
He ordered the clothes to be ripped open
and found the money.
sand how came you to tell this ?" said
the chief
because" replied the child, L would be
false to my mother, to whom promised nc
yer to tell a lie.'
Child" said the robber, "art thou so
mindful of thy duty to thy mother at thy
years, and am insensible at my age of the
duty owe to God! Give me thy hand that
may swear repentance on it," He did so,
and his followers were all struck with the
scene.
"4ou have been our leader in guilt" they
said to the chief, be the same in the potb
OF virtue, and they Immediately made rcst;-
tuition Of their spoils, and vowed repentance
on the boys hand
There is n moral in this story, which GOES
beyond the direct influence of the mother On
the child. The noble sentiment infused into
the breast of the child is again transfused
from breast to breast, till those who felt,t
know not whence it comes.

Tricks of Animals,

In breaking or managing horse how
ever intractable or stubborn his temper
may be, preserve your own. Almost eve
ry fault the brute has, arises from igno-
rance. BE patient with him; teach and
coax him, and success in time is certain.
There are tricks, however, which are the
result of confirmed habit or viciousness.
and these sometimes require different
treatment. A horse accustomed to start
ing and running away, may be effectualy
cured, by putting him to the top of his
speed on such occasions, and running till
pretty thoroughly exhausted.
A horse that had trick of pulling his
bride and breaking it, was at last redu-
ccd to better habits by tying him tightly
to Il stake driven on the bank of steep
stream, with his tail pointing to the water;
he commenced pulling at the halter, which
suddcnIy y parted over the bank he tum-
bled, and after somerset or two, and
tioundering awhile I'm the water, he was
satisfied to remain at his post in future,
and break no more brides.
n ram has been cured of buttinp at
everything and everybody, by placing an
UNI csisting efligy in similar position ;
the sudden assault on wintry dav then
resulted in tumbling his ramship into a
cold bath, which his improved manner
took good care to avoid in future.
y sheep killing dog has been made too
much ashamed ever again to look sheep

Little Mary strained her c! es to the ut

further, then summoning all her resolution,
she threw harseif forward, and was received
safely in her fathers arms.
The minister thought this a fine illustra-
ton of faith in God. And so it is. You,
children, cannot see God, but he can see you.
And he calls you to him and says, "Thoso
that seek me early shall find me-" Will you
not seek him, in the exercise of faith like
that of the little girl, saying:
"A guilty, weak, and helpless worm,
Into thine arms fall;
BE thou my strength, my righteousness,
