A Singular Affair.

The Bath. Me-, Sentinel of Saturday
contains the following account of an in.
sane woman in that city burning herself
TO death
We learn that Mrs. Susan TarboS. wife
of James Tarbox. of Tepsham, who for q
long time has been subject to hopeless in.
sanity. put an end to her existence the
latter part of last week, by means of fire
AS we hear the facts. on Friday, about
ten O'Clock, she made an attempt to burn
herself by means of friction matches, but
was detected by meanssof the smoke is.
suing from the room in which she was
confined. The room was then thorough.
tly searched, and it was supposed impossi.
bic that she should have matches in it,.
IL appears, as was subsequently ascer.
tanned. that she still had them concealed
in her shoes, and early in the afternoon
smoke was again discovered about the
house, and the females about rushed Ia
her room and found the smoke SO dense
they could not enter MIR. Tarbox, who
was near the house. was .immediately
alarmed, and succeeded IN exting nish fnp
the flames. The unfortunate " omar, had
evidently fred her clothes about tie waist,
las her breast and shoulders were burned
i'm the most shocking manner tfiouehs lie
was not extinct. She made no outcry
and though she fingered nntii
she next day. and was; able to converse a
little, she manifested little or no sSnp-
toms of pain or distress.
She was not without method IN her
madness. for it was found that she had
torn up allthe carpet and pack It ronhd
the doors. TO prevent the escape of smoke,
which would az ain lead to detecfioh.
When asked why she did not burn. herself
in the night she exclaimsd. g What q

CHRISTINE; OR WoMAx's TRIALS AND TRI-
uNpns by Laura P Curtis, is the title of hand
somely got up volume from the press of De
Witt & Davenport and placed upon our table by
j. NJ. Lee. We have not had time to read the
volume but have seen it very highly spoken of
in several of ourexchaugcs, as being above the
works Of fiction which compose the light read
ingof the day, its aim and scope being much
higher and nohler
At Mr.. Lees will be found great variety of
books, comprising much that is interesting and
valuable
