tired for the night, attempted TO all a

oil was ignited, the can exploding and
throwing the blazing fluid all over the
man and two Of his children, a girl aged
. and a boy Of 4 years, who were sleeping
on the floor In q corner Of the room. The
boy was Weakened and ran out doors. The
girl either did not wake at all, or, as ia
more probable, was aroused, butonly after
being too much injured TO escape. The
father was able TO leave the house. The
mother, who was In the bedroom with an
infant, escaped through an open window,
and when the boy came out, seized him
and rolled him in the wet grass, thus ex-
tinguishing the fire, which was consuming
his scanty clothing. On looking after her
daughter, 1t was found that she was still
in tine blazing building, butt was impos.
sible to rescue her. After the house was
consumed, her remains were found near
where she had lain down. Her Limbs
were burned of, and the skull dropped.of
when the trunk was lifted up. MIR. Brown
himself was burned from the knees 10 the
top of his head, and died coon after. The
bog, at last accounts, vas not expected to
live.

Amusements.-Ou citizens are looking
forward with lively anticipations to the
forthcoming musical entertainment and
exhibition of Tableaux, to be given by our
troupe OF amateur performers, in the Odd
Fellows Hall, Elktsn, commencing On
next Thursday evening to be repeated
for three evenings. The new Burletta,
written expressly for this occasion, will be
superior in some respects, to the popular
piece, Wives at Will, which had such run
last winter. Mr.. Haines in the part Of the
Old Man is SO provokingly comique that
this part Of the play will be sure to draw
peals of laughter from the audience. The
variety and excellence of the music. and
the fine choruses which compose the piece,
we hazard the prediction, will give it I'M
bounded popularity.
The Tableaux selected for the occasion
are of rare excellence and beauty; and as
a whole it affords us the highest gratifica-
ten to announce to our citizens, and all
who wonld enjoy rare treat, that the
exhibitions to open on next Thursday even
ing, 26th inst, will surpass anything of
the kind attempted in Elkton. More than
this need not be said to those who have
witnessed former exhibitions by the same
artists.
That nothing might be wanting to make
these entertainments complete, additional
instrumental music has been engaged for
the occasion, so that the orchestra may be
a worthy companion piece, as it were, Of
the Stage. Overlooking houses will doubt
less greet the performers.
