Of Knoxville:-

in number) into bed-the oldest boy Of
but ten years, the youngest o babe Of thir-
teen months-to 60 for his wife, who was
attending the sick at neighbours, about
one mile away, when, BY some cause, the
bed in which two Of the. children slept,
caught FIRE, which fortunately awakened tie
oldest boy, who, with astounding presence
Of mind and courage, succeeded in getting
the other children out Of the house safe
after burning his hands and face badly, and
almost all the hair from his head. He after
wards broke open the window and rescued
