TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.
An Actress Mt an Albany Theatre Fatal
Huruah

An Actress Mt an Albany Theatre Fatally
burned.
The Albany Journal of last evening SAYS
: The National Theatre was the scene of a most
distressing accident last evening. The building
was well filed with spectators, and all seemed
bent on enjoying themselves to their utmost
with their families. Among the artstes was
a Mrs. Byron, scarcely more than seventeen
years of age, pretty and attractive, who
sings and dances very charmingly. She had
just finished q solo, and responded to an encore,
after which she retired to her dressing-room to
prepare for the next scene While there, maxi
ing her toilet and rearranging her luxuriant
hair, che unfortunately leaned over towerds
the gas burner, and her tresses coming in con-
tact with the flame, ignited, and in an instant
her head was enyeloped with fire. The light
dress which she wore also caught, and in her
terror she stood for q moment or two utterly pow
erless to call for help When at length she gained
voice. and her shrieks summoned assistance
and the flames were eXtinguished, it was found
she was burned in a most fearful manner about
the head, face, neck, and upper portion of the
body. Mrs. Byron was married about six
months since to Byron, who is a professional
actor, her maiden name beirg Wright. 1t is
thought that she can scarcely recover, from the
fearful manner in which she is burned.

ILL.,, over the contest for United States Sena-
tor, General Logan at present being the
strongest candidate, with several formidable
opponents pitted against him.
Henry g. Brenner, resident of Ian
caster, Pa, was to be married at z o'clock
last evening, but half hour previous to that
time deliberately blew his brains out by
means of pistol shot, without any apparent
cause for the rash act.
The preparation of the Apportioument
bill by Judge Mercur has been delayed by
the want of data the Census Bureau is not
yet prepared with. 1t may be ready by next
Tuesday. 1t is proposed to make the basis OF
a Congressional district population of about
$4,000, giving some $50 districts.
