FnAnru1. ACCIDENT IN Rurf,E;,r,Gr
AvENUE.-Another of those rrigh,ful
incidents which every newspaper has
occasion to record, resulting from the
careless use Of kerosene, occurred last
evening at the southeast corner Of Ru,-
lodge and Morris streets.
1t appears that about dark ias. even
ing a young German girl, who. was en-
psoycd is servant on the premises OF
Muller & Mclchers on King street. was
filing lamp, which ii is supposed was
lit at the time, when the nniI took G-c.
An explosion followed, and in mo-
mcnt the girl was wrapped in flame
She dashed out Of the house screaming,
and apparently endeavorcd to reach. the
adjoining residence. Az this ;lmcturc
Mr.. j, Lai,tc, who, with two ladies,
was going up the avenue, rushed for
ward to aid the poor creature, now one
sheet OF fire. Several colored persons
and another white man Quickly gathered,
and the latter throwing of bis coat, Mr..
Lalitte seized it as The most available
means for quenching the blaze. Getting
behind the frantic girl, lie threw The
garment around her head and shoulders,
tore off the dress, and with admirable
presence OF mind, as soonas he could 10
so, threw the girl upon The ground,
when the fire was pat out.
Or. Pclzer was Immediately sent for,
and The sufferer, sensible but irightfnlly
injured, was conveyed into the house.
was removed to the Hampstead Hospi-
tai last evening, but we learn from Dr..
Pelzer that her recovery Is extremely
doubtful, the limbs, face. shoulders and
bosom being shockingly bnrnod.
Time and again, we have cautioned
the public against the careless use OF
Kerosene. One might as well toy with
a barrel Of gunpowdcr rs with som G
kinds Of this Northumberland dangerous
material. and we fear that not until a
score OF houses have been destroyed, or
Al many human beings been muii!ated
or murdered by it, will tI:e lesson be
taught which & single accident like the
above should enforce.

MosT HoRRlnLE MURDER On the
night of Wcdncsdav, the 18th inst,
Mrs. Elk'ns, married lady living IN the
Dark-Corner section Of our District,
was most barbarouslv murdered, Mrs
Elkns was still a young woman, the
mother OF Lthree. snail children, the
youngest al intact Of fivu monlhs. We
arc informed that Mr., VIM. Elkins the
husband and Gather, who is . rlaiftea.
Confederate soldier, was absent from
home, at the time this murder was com
mttcd, on a visit to an uncle living ilf.
tie nclEIborhood. And that when he
returned to his hcmc, at 10 o'cfoGE at
night, the unfortunate man found the
dead body Of his wife lying,in the ward,
the face as,d head most horsib!y .crlshel
and shattered as if By blows from an
axe or heavy iron shovel. And that
in the obsencc Of her husband, no one
remained with Mrs. Elkins save her
children and the nurse of her infant, the
latter young colored girl.
The Whole affair, however, is as yct
involved in so much mystery that we
deem it wise, before saying more on the
subject, to wait for further d,velop-
mcnts. The citizens of the ncighbor-
hood in which this fell deed has been
committed, are boldly on the alert to
unravcl the mystery and bring the per
petrator or perpetrators To justice. On
Saturday last, seven negroes, six men
and one woman. the nurse above
mentioned, if We mistake not, were
brought from Darll.Corncr and lolged
in the Jail Of this town, ,,n !,
