Horrid Spectacle.

A settlement in Canada West was
recently the scene of horrid specta-
Gle. AT place called Sandwich East,
there lived poor, widowed colored
woman, named Rice, with FIVE children,
the eldest of them girl aged nine
years. The unfortunate woman was
seized with the small pox, from the ef-
fects of which she became totally bliud.
Her neighbors at once ceased to visit
her and left her and her little ones to
provide for themselves during the in
tensely cold weather as best they might.
On New Years eve, from some unex-
planned cause, the shanty took fire, and
although the neighbors saw it burning,
their humanity did not override their
dread of the small pox, and they left
the unfortunate inmates to their fate.
The woman and two of the young
children were burned to death, two
others froze to. death at the ruins of
their house, while the eldest girl es-
capped from the burning shanty and ran
toward neighbours house, but before
she could reach any place of refuge she
sank under the influence of the cold
and froze to death. When her body
was found she was perfectly naked.

A CHEAP PAINT.-We think the
farmers will find The following profita
BILE for house or fence paint:
Skim milk, two quarts fresh Stacked
lime, eight ounces lnseed oil, six
ounces; white Burgundy pitch, two
ounces; Spanish white, three pounds.
The lime is to be slackened in water,
exposed-to the air, and then mixed
with about one fourth of the milk; the
oil, in which the pitch is dissolved, to
be added little at time, then the
rest of the milk, and afterwards the
Spanish white. This is sufficient for
twenty seven square yards, two coats.
This rs for awhile paint. If desirable
any other color may be produced.
Thus,if cream color is desired. in
place of part of the Spanish white. use
yellow ochre, or if yellow, use the vel
low alone.
