SAD CAsUALrY.-Mary Laduc, n Canadian
girl in the employ Of William Fulcr's family
was badly burned one evening last week los
her clothes taking fire, from lamp filled with
burning fluid. The circumstances attending
tho painful incident as we have been informed
were that she attempted to light one wick
10y turning the lamp on the side, when the
top came off, not being well secured, the en-.
tire contents were thrown over her dress
which instantly took fire, and cnvelopcd the
girl-in flames. In her fright she rushed into
the street, when some two or three men pull-
cd OF their coats and threw around her and
succeeded very soon in cxtingushing the fire,
but not till she was so shockngly burned ms
the house was soon put out, without material
damage. This instance affords another eau
ton to those who use burning fluid and
comphene to be extremely cautious and be
sure that their lamps are in ORDER, and very
careful how they handle such dangerous COM

MURDER or rIyEYouNG GIRLS ~ SPAIN
The Barcelona journals contain an ac-
count Of horrible and almost incredible
assassination Of five young girls, at Vich, i'm
Catalonia. 1t appears that on the DIST ult.,
as six young girls Of the age of %, y, H.
10, II and 10 years, were walking home
from Mataus cotton mills, which are situa-
ted near tho village of Rodas, to Ingaroas
they were stopped by two miscreants, who.
pistol in hand, obliged thera to turn back
to solitary place in Sherradanwood.-
Here they were ordered to sit down, and
while one wretch kept guard over five, the
other led the eldest n few PAGES off and
plunged his long Cataline knife into her
throat. Her dying shrek was heard by
her companions, whO one by one were led
away and butchered. The youngestor all,
Il child Of I'D years, on receiving wound
in the neck, fell feiguing death, UPON
which the assassins, after taking the little ,
money the girls had about them, went to .
the village Of Rodas, where they lived. .
The crime was pcrpetrated at night
The wounded child remained motionlcss
till daylight, when she crawled to neigh
boring farmhouse. When the authorities
arrived at the scat Of crime, they found
the three eldest girls dead, and two despc-
rately wounded. rhe cause of this bloody .
act is said to have been jealousy arising
from some display OF coquetry at ball on
the preceding Sunday, where the pretticst .
Of the girls, the one 81 years Of age refus
ed to dance with one Of the assassins, or to
return hima ring or some otherloye token. /.
He had then looked for an accomplice, and .
found one in neighbor. The accompHce, .
it appears from the deposition ofthe child, .
would have spared the younger ones, but
the other, alleging the danger of discovery, .
insisted upon completing their butchers /
work, Tho authorities are making the
most active eXertions todiscover the lurk- .
ing places Of the culprits, whose persons .
are we'll known to the workman Of the nu-
mcrous mills.

TUE INDIAN WAR IN OREGoN.-We learn
that Father De Smethas receiveda despatch
from Washington requesting him to join
Gen. uarney at New York as chaplain to
the army in Oregon. Apart from all con-
siderations of a religious or spiritual char
acter. there is eminent proprety in the
selection of Father De Smet for his posi-
ton. 1t was he who first preached the
doctrines of Christianity to the Northern
Ultramontane Indians, and he is conse-
quently regarded with especial reverence
bv those tribes who dwell in the country
which is the theatre of the Oregon Indian
war There can be no doubt that his in
fuence over them will facilitate the reali-
zation of the purposes Of the government
In no part of Oregon is the Big Black
Gown" unknown or unappreciated. His
influence over the Blackteet nation Is su-
preme, and the Flatheads and adjacent
tribes are scarcely less submissive to his
counsels. The government has therefore
