Shocking Accident at Niblo's-A Bal.
let Dancer Burned.-During the perfor.
nance, Wednesday evening, 1t Niblo's
Saloon, serious accident took place, in
which one Of the actresses, Madame
Genet, was seriously, if not fatally burned.
II appears that during ballet the clothing
Of Mime, Genet, who was standing in the
dressing room, caught Ore from gaslight
and in an instant she was enveloped in ,
mass Of flames. She Immediately ran out
upon the stage, among the performers,
who, on seeing her approach, scattered in
every direction. The audience started up
in confusion, and gaeat rush was made
sor the doors. Mad. Robert, one Of the
performers, in her excitement, threw her.
self off the stage, and had it not been for
the assistance Of officer Clark, Of the
Mayors Office, and gentleman, stand
ing near the font of the Stage, she would
have been seriously injured by the fall.
Water was procured as soon as possible
and thrown over the burning lady, and by
this means the flames were extinguished.
The sufferer was imediately removed to
the green room, and medical assistance
procured; the audience was soon Quoted
by the officers Of the building, and the
play proceeded. How serious Mad. Genet
is hurt we have not been able to ascertain
but we understand she is not likely to re-
cover. The excitement lasted nearly hal
an hour and occurred a little before nine
o'clock.-Erpress.

ACKNOWLEDGING the people BY
their affections, convince their reason, and
they will BE- loyal from the only principle
that can make loyalty sincere, vigorous,
or rational-a conviction that it is their
interest, and that their government Is for
their good. Constraint is the natural pa
rent Of resistance, and pregnant proof
that reason is not on the side Of those who
uAe it. You must al remember Lncian's
pleasant story: aJupiter and : country
man wers walking together conversing
with great freedom and familiarity on the
subject Of heaven and earth. Tho coan-
ltryman listened with attention and acqui-
escence while Jupiter strove only to con.
vince him; but happening to hint : doubt,
Jupiter turned hastily around, and threat:
icned him with his thunder. ''Ah, hal
said the countryman, 'snow Jupiter, know
that you're wrong; you arc always wrong
when you appeal to your thunder"

Tho Baton Rouge Sugar planter Of

Tho Baton Rouge sugar Plauter OF
Saturday, says:
It is pretty we'll conceded that tho crop
Of this parish. for the coming year will be
cotton instead of sugar. There has been
for some time past, pretty brisk demand
for cotton seed, and so far it has been
rather difficult to procure. Since our last
issue we have heard of some twelve or
fifteen planters, both large and small, who
have also determind to try their chances
for crop Of cotton.
