DISTRESSING ACciDENT.-On Saturday
morning, tho 11th inst. as the wife Of
Mr.. Frederick Norman, who lives about
four miles south Of Louisville, in this
county, was mopping up the floor in the
neighborhood Of the hearth, a spark Of
fire was thrown from the cracking wood
upon her dress, and soon kindled to a
fame.
Her little girl, nine years old, told her
mother that her dress was on fire, and
Immediately ran to pick up the babe, lest
it should creep to its mother and catch
6re too. Mrs. N. commenced pulling of
her sack but, fading the sleeve but
toned tight around the wrist, abando oned
it in despair. The little girl then told
her mother to run to the pond. short
distance from the house, She pulled q
flannel skirt over her head aad ran for
the pond, plunged in, cxtinguished the
fire and found temporary relief.
She was badly burned on the back,
shoulders, arms and hands. On the latter
the flesh is burned off, exposing the cords.
She has five children the Oldest about
nino years of age. Little hopes is enter.
tanned by her recovery. Mr.. Norman is
a poor man, and this sad affliction will
fall heavily upon him, with his brood of
dependent children.

How Ms Was 0utWlttod-The SabIfmtty
of a hanks Luck, and Excellent
Coed Sense Of a Cashier.

Last Thursday q very proper-iookins
man came from Little Rock. He was well
clad, has a pleasing, in~sinuating address,
snd can look an honest man In the face
without any very peiceptible sGuirming.
He held a draft on the Union and Plant
ers' bank for 1850, drawn BY 5. ID. Tucker,
an excellent banker Of Little Rock. The
astnts cashier of the Union and Planters
bank, Mr.. Read, insisted on the identih-
cation If the holder md payee OF the
draft and this gentleman, Mr.. ]. Skiddy,
insisted that he had no acquaintance In
Memphis, but that Mr.. Tucker had his
proper signature, would send it over, and
this could be compared with the indorse-
ment proposed to be made on the dram.
All this was very well, bat by no means
satisfactory to Mr.. Read, who thought 1t
strange that Skiddy was utterly Dknown
and, moreover, exceedingly anxious 70 get
the money. ALI day Saturday Skiddy
made hourly calls on Mr.. Read, but no
letter came from Little Rock. In fact, the
banker there wanted Skiddy TO identify
himself more satisfactorily than by writ
Memphis. These aukers are not easily
euped. Yesterday morning MI. Read said
to Skiddy that he had the letter and sig
nature desired from Little Rock, but
tina he would not pay the draft unless
Skiddy could find some n to identify
him personally. Skiddy grew angry, and
played the bully for q time, but Mr.. Read
wss memorable. II wss agreed, however,
thai Skiddy should return to the bank at
three o'clock, when, If President Earring
ton assented, the draft should be paid.
Meanwhile, Mr.. Read put q detective on
Skiddy's track, and asked Mr.. Fred Smith
to meet him at the hour designated, At the
bank, when he could pass judgment on
Skiddy's sweet face. At the hour fixed,
Skiddy appeared. He was instantly recog-
nized by Mr.. Smith as Bennersh, who
come years ago swamped Mr.. 8. for the
sum of 5000, by means very like those
sought to be used in this transaction with
Mr.. Read. A policeman was hard by, anc
Mr.. Skiddy, alias Bennersh, went to the
| lookup. His trunk, at the Worsham
House, Was inspected, and found to be
well supplied with all the implements o.
trade of 3 forger. He had all sorts of inks
and paper and pretty little tools. Since hi
failed to rob Mr.. Read, he becomes the
special property of Mr.. F. W. Smith. whc
holds him under a deed Of trust for 5000
