A FRieHTFUL ACCIDENT
Death Of Miss lou King BY a Coal OIL Ex-
plOsiOH.

From the Chattanooga Times, 2lth
A melancholy accident occurred
Thursday night at the house OF Miss
Lou. King, on Cherry, near Fourth
street, resulting in the death OF that
most estimable lady.
1t appears that about 9 o'clock Miss
King was sitting at a small table in
her parlOr, dressed in an evening
gown, and about preparing to retire.
She arose from her seat for that pur-
pose, and in doing so she noticed that
her gown became entangled, in some
way, with the leg OF the table. In her
efforts 10 disengage her garment, she
upset a lamp which was standing on
the table. The top, or burner, was
thrown of by the violent conclusion,
thus setting free the cal, which at once
set fire 10 the thin garment Of Miss
King. burning her all over the body
iu 3 most shocking manner. The
screams Of the sufferer at once attract
I'd a larqe number Of neighbOrs TO her
sssistance. and Drs. simms and Nor
ris were summoned. Everything with
in the power Of skill was done 70 save
her lie, but the shock was too terrible
for hopes OF recovery t) be entertained.
She never for d moment rallied, and
death ci0sea the terrible scene at .
O'Clock yesterday morning.

A MATRIMONIAL SrRArAGEx.-A few even
ings since, says the New Orleans Rcayune,
just as Justice Evans was leaving his Office,
be was confronted by two charming young
ladies who requested q private interview.
Conducting them into his Office, the bland
magistrate inquired in what way he could
oblige them. "You are Justice Of Peace,
are you not ?" the eldest, and by far the
prettiest, Of them, inquired. EYES," he
said. "And can marry people-that is, cnn
marry a lady2" "Weil, yes, if the lady
brings bridegroom along with her. I'm
not q marrying man myself" rejoined tho
trembling magistrate, fearful lest his own
freedom was involved in the issue. ''Oh, not
at oil, f" said the damsel, and turning TO her
companion continued, ~ reckon, Willie, you
can strip off those toys" No sooner said
than done the young lady's companion COM
menced to tear off her dress with haste that
promised q speedy nudity. Inexpressibly
shocked flor the Judge is very modest man).
he turned to escape from the room, when a
second glance he could not restrain revealed
to him the fact that the supposed young wo-
man then stripping off her female gear was
not girl but q strapping boy, who had used
the disguise to get his dulcinea in the pres
ence of magistrate. OF course this explain
ed the situation, and without more ado the
Judge proceeded to join them in the holy
bonds s'until death or divorce courts should
sever Them" In remuneration fer his
trouble, the bride gave him q smacking kiss,
and went on her way rejoicing.

AT the Church of St. Martin sin the.Tield's
the lady and gentleman who daily add 10 the
attractiveness Of the "Two-headed Nirhtin.

a match OF 1t, and were about to be married
by special license. Nova Scotia, famous
for the production Of tall persons, had pro-

Of the ceremony in ST. Martins Church.
The brides dress became her well, and there
was something Of stateliness and dignity in
the skill with which she managed q most i'm

knelt at the altar steps, seemed to flow far

TIE SMALLrox IN LONDON, THREE HuN-
DRIED DEArHs A WEEK.-The deaths from this
disease in London during last week were
232, against 245 and 240 in the two previous
weeks. These numbers, however, are an in
crease on the preceding return of 229,
which in its turn has been q welcome reduc-
ton from the large weekly totals of 267 and
Isl. The disease has varied too capricious-
ly to justify our building with much conf
dence on an apparent diminution, but, on the
whole, there seems reason to hope that the
mortality has at least reached its limit. The
returns we reported on Monday, as made to
the Metropolitan Asylums Board from the
temporary hospitals, indicate little amend
ment but the report Of DR.. Bridges. the
Poor Law Inspector, is much more enccar-
aging. He furnishes information, noar Of
the mortality, but of the number Of cases, Of
the disease which come under the notice of
the poor law authorities, and these show 80
considerable decline almost everywhere ex-
cept in Marylebone and Paddingtou."
There are now 3l3 vacant beds in the tem-
porary hospitals, which are, therefore,, ahead
Of the disease. This alone would be Of con-
siderable advantage, since it renders, prompt
isolation practicable. These hopes, however,
cannot blind MS to the extreme gravity Of the
existing returns. For some time past the
deaths from smallpox in London have been at
an average of nearly $50 week, and have
furnished from one-ffth to one-sixth Of the
total mortality Of the metropolis. In some
other English towns the disease has attained
the dimensions Of pestilence. In Sunder-
land, for instance, the mortality has been at
the annual rate of % per 900, which is the
rate representing the total mortality from oil
causes in the large cities Of the United King
dom, Southampton and Great Grimsby have
suffered with similar severity. In London
alone, let il be distinctly observed, as many
as 900 lives month are now sacrificed to q
perfectly preventible disease. London Times.

PRoTECTYoN-WHAT IT MEANs.-The pro-
tectionsts. just now in response to the evil
dent desire of the people for reduction Of
duties, claim great credit for concessions
made in that direction during the past win
ter. Let US look at them and see for our
selves. How consolipg to the poor families
struggling day by day for the neoessaries of
life, to be told that asbestos and belladonna,
canary seed and buchu leaves are on the free
list whilst on clothing is left duty of 65
to $50 per cent, and salt los per cent. How
cheering to the poor widow, shivering with
the cold, to know that Croton bark, litmus
and Jeddo gum are put upon the free list,
while the duty on coal is 81 25 per ton
To the Mechanic, what JOY it must bring
to know that turtles, tea plants and jalap
ore at last upon the free list, whilst every
tool he uses, from q chisel to q trip hammer,
is taxed from IS to $50 per cent.
How encouraging to the farmer to know
that coacosnuts are only 10 per cent. in the
new tariff, and Zante currants are 81, and in
addition, bone dust, squills and ipecac are
free, and yet every implement he uses from q
rake to reaper is doubled in price BY the
tariff, and through its influence freights are
80 increased that it costs US as much to get q
bushel of wheat to market as it costs to raise
it. This, then is the feast Of the fat things
to which we are invited by this blessed free
list. One hundred new items are on the bill
Of fare. The fact is this whole system Of
special legislation, whether in the State or
Nation, is fearful evil, and is sapping the
very life blood Of public men and public NOR
als-like the devil fish of Victor Hugo, it
has hundred shiny arms, and every arm
has numbered greedy suckers, and is fast
gathering into it's hideous grasp all the pow.
ers of legislation, and unless we can free our
selves quickly the liberties of this nation will
be thing Of the past, and our republican
institutions twill go glimmering into the
things that were. Portland Democratic
