FRIaHTFUL DEATH.-Mrs. Margaret Swift,
widow of the late James Swift, OF Albany N.
Y, who was sent to the Utica lunatic asylum
a short time ago, met with terrible death on
Thursday. She managed to procure some
matches aud when confined to her room, dis
robed, and after retiring. deliberately set fire
to the bedding. Smoke being discovered 10
the nall by the matron she hastily opened the
door, and was horror struck at the sight that
met her gaze. Mrs. Swift lay literally roasted
in the flames she had kindled. The fire was
extlnguished and every attention paid to the
unfortunate woman, without avail, as she died
shortly after, in the full posse ssion OF her
senses.

REMARKABLE:-The Dorchester county
(Md.) News publishes story of remarkable
change Of sex. The daughter Of MIR. Stack,
of Fredericksburg, in that county, suddenly
disappeared in male attire and went to Phila
delphia, but has since returned insisting that
he or she is a man, and refusing to don any
other costume. A moustache attests the truth
of these claims to masculine nature. For
twenty years this singular person has passed
for eir!. We can hardly credit the story.
