HORRIBLE DKATH-A Drunkard's .Stor,acL on
Fire-About midnight on Sunday last, the peo-
pie OF the village OF Rainbow, near New Ha-
ven, Ct, We're awakened by tine cry OF fire,
which proved to be caused by the burning OF a
two-story frame house, owned bv John Dar-
win, and occupied by him as a liquor saloon,
which was completely destroyed. Those
neighbors first on the spot, found Darwin ly-
ing en- the ground so badly burned as to be
nearly insepsible- He was conveyed to
a neighboring house. but died in great
agony before morning. 1t appears that
the unfortunate man. as soon IS he had dis
covered the fire, ran out OF the house, but sub
sequently returned TO save his five slee pin z
children. He was badly intoxicated At the
time. and entering the burning building, the
flames struck him in the face and lmmed late v,
owing 10 the amount of liquor he had drank,
set fire to the inside Of his throat and stomach,
burning mp his tongue, so that when he was
found, that organ was q mere crisp. The
children were saved by the neighbors, one Of
them badly scorched. The eldest boy says
general carousal had been gong on in the sa-
loon, and while some one intoxicated was
drawing liquor, he probably set fire to an old
feather bed near the barrel. Everything in the
house was burned, and the children are Tins
lef orphans and unprovided for.

consideration of the quaker nominations for
Indian Agents. After a short discussion,
Friend Zachariah McNault, named as Agent
for Sacs and Foxes, and Isaac G. Tyson, for

Friends were confirmed. Mr. San tOrd's nomi.

Very small sales have been effected in un-
bleached shirtings and sheetings, and prices
have given way TO the extent OF half a cent a
yard IN most descriptions of goods. Un-
bleac he'd sheetings from Georgia Mills are now
regularly supplied to our market and have be.
come competitors with the fabrics from New
sheetIngs here. instead Of sending here for
them, 1t can hardly fail to tell on prices The
transactions in bleached shirtings and sheet.
ings have been on very moderate scale, and
the mere popular marks; but for other styles
and fancy marks the demand is light and
prices are weak. The decline in the previous
weeks quotations is equal to about half cent
a yard, with the usual discount. The trans
actlons in prints have been on q larger scale
than in other classes OF domestic fabrics: and
prices have, consequently, been more firmly
maintained. New styles always Command
fnll prices and better attention; but when thew
are particularly attractive, from their novelty
and beauty, as happens to be The case this
Spring, they are. very naturally, more sought
after. Prices are well kept up, though the
stock in first hands is large. Sprague's fancies
and Pacific company's sell tor l2l, less I per
cent. Ginehams are in fair demand for the
better Qualities, and prices are firm: but, for
the inferior grades there is but little call, and
prices are weak. DeHims and cottonades are
in somewhat better demand, particularly 1or
heavy weights; but in other Qualities there is
less dong and prices are not so firm. In other
descriptions of cotton fabrics there is no change
worthy of noie since our last weeks report:
except, perhaps, in printed lawns, which NAV
be said 10 be in increased favor among buyers
as the season advances. Prices are well main /.
tained for these and for percales. Muslin de.
laines are in good supply, and large amount
OF old stock Is on hand, which can only be sold
at a reduction of prices. The new styles are
attractive, but they do not induce large pur.
chases.
WooIens OF all descriptions are generally
heavy, and the demand is less active than was
the case The previous week. Cloths are very
little called for, except for heavy qualities.
which are being taken mp now in moderate
quantities by the clothing -houses for their early
Fall trade. In cassineres there Is very little
doing. except for few choice styles for city
tn de. Medium and low grades can only be
sold at very low figures, which are anything
but satisfactory to the manufacturer, Sat,.
Eets are dull for all descriptions, and prices
are weak. Kentucky Jeans are not in much
demand, and prices have a downward ten.
deney; snt no quotable change has been estaq.
lished. Flannels are very quiet, and for the
present season no improvement can be antici.
pated In most descriptions of Housekeeping
goods there is a fair demand, but NO liyeliness
OF feeling nor any indication Of Q sensipIe
change OF prices.
The trade in foreign goods has been irregu-
lar, and for the season the transactions have
been limited and prices irregtlar.-N. 4. iade.
