DEATH OF MISS SARAH BARNARD.-We announced
yesterday, the melancholy death of Miss Sarah
Barnard, daughter of Mr.. George NJ. Barnard, of
Boston. We copy, this morning, the particulars
of the sad event. from the Saturday Evening Gazette
of the 18th inst
"a terrible accident occurred little past four
O'Clock this afternoon, at the residence of Geo. NJ
Barnard, Esq, 100 Beacon street, by which his only
daughter, Miss Sarah Barnard, lost her life. Miss
Barnard and her grandmother, were the only mem
bers OF the family that were at home, Mr.. Barnard
being absent and his wife at the Music Hail. where
she was waiting to be joined by her daughter, by
agreement.
calamity, had left Miss Barnard sitting by a Camel
coal fire reading in the back drawing room and had
gone into another room to sit, when she was at
tracted by the screams of the grand daughter and
rushing in, found her standing on the floor with
her dress in flames. Her outer dress was of woolep
and the fire had taken hold of the linen composing
her under garments. The old lady endeavored to
smother the flames with rug which she threw,
around her, but being very much alarmed, Miss
Barnard broke from her and rushed out of the room
and down the stairway to the kitchen, which was
Immediately below.
The draught of air quickened the flames, and on
opening the kitchen door she was entirely enveloped
In them. She merely uttered word, and fell upon
the foor. The servants rushed from the house
screaming for help. The first who reached the
spot was the coachman of B. c. Boardman, Esq,
who found her upon the floor, and her clothes still
burning. DIR. X. W. Hooper, who resides next door
but one, was Immediately sent for, but his aid was
nnavailing, she having probably inhaled the hames
and died where she fell.
She was beautiful and accomplished young lady,
and had just completed her twenty-frst YEAR She
had large circle of friends and admirers and a
gloom was cast upon the Fair this evening in con-
sequence OF the calamity, hundreds of those pres
ent having been acquainted with her, who were an

of the catastrophe, she was awaiting the company

CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS.
WASHINGTON, March 16.
SENATE.

SENATE.
After some preliminary unimportant business the
Kansas bill resumed.
Mr.. Hale made a statement of an agreement en-
tered into by his friends and acouiesced in by many
gentlemen of the opposite side. The agreement
reads: owe agree that the debate shall close and
the question be taken on Monday next; but if it
appears necessary that the session be prora cted
allow free discussion they shall be extended to such
hour as we may Indicate"
MIR. Bigler said he considered the agreement in
accordance with the views of his friends.
Mr.. Green said that after consultation with mu-
tual friends ne would make personal explanation.
he was said to have used language last night which
was understood as personal. If So he now with
drew it.
Mr.. Cameron said he might have come into the
Senate last night under wrong impression. He
had no disrespectful feeling toward the Senator
from Missouri. He could have none. In common
with all Senators, he respected that gentleman and
did intend nothing disrespectful toward him.
Mr.. Green rose as if to say more, but the friends
of both parties seemed to wish that no more be said
on either side, and the matter was dropped
Mr.. King commenced a speech the Kansas
bill.
After discussing the Kansas and Nebraska act,
Mr.. King referred to Mr.. Buchanans instructions to
Gov. Walker. The gist of those instructions, he
contended were that the whole constitution not the
slavery clause alone, to be submitted to the
people. But this was delusion. The constitution
was not submitted; even the slavery clause was not
30 tar from this, the people obliged to assent
to the clause which fastened slavery upon the Ter
rltory forever, in order to get rid of the mporta-
ton of slaves into it.
Mr.. King having concluded Mr.. Mallory made
southern speech-admitting however the future
political supremacy of the North, but saving the
South will never submit to voluntary acouiescence
under violated constitution.
MIR. Pugh followed. The scope of his argument
was that the enabling act was not necessary. The
constitution of the United States does not require
any constitution at all mot orten one at least as
essential of admission. He nstanced the case of
Rhode Island.
Mr.. Pugh said the people of Kansas, have right
to change their constitution prior to 1864. The
President of the Lecompton Convention was bound
to complete his trust before it before the SEN
ate, which he hoped would be the case before vote
on the bill would be taken.
Mr.: Crittenden will speak tomorrow.
