subject in Louisiana and st. Louis. to large au
dlences, some Of whom have gone 60 miles to
hear him. can assure tha good citizsns of

ANOTHER FLUID ACCrDENT.-Acci-
dents by the bursting Of Fluid lamps are be-
coming more numerous every day. Nearly
every paper We take up contains an account
of one or more persous being drsadfully burned,
and oftentimes fatally injured.
Monday evening the wife of Mr.. Richard
son, Of this Office. took fluid lamp from the
table and started past where Mr. r. was sitting
holding their little child in his lap; when just
as she came opposite him. the lamp burst en-.
veloping them all in blaze. Mr.. X. spraDg
forward and extinguished the flames, but not
until: they had ser ously burned both his wife
and child. We hope this will be warning to
those who are using this murderous light.
When Kerosene oil light can be had for lsss
than one fourth the price Of fluid, it is all non.
sense for our citizens to use this dangerous
