SAD DEATH OF AN EsTIMABLE You've
LADY, Miss Lou Boiling, daughter OF Mr.
Thomas Boiling, who resides at the south.
| east corneroi Frank lin and Foushee streets,
died ut haif-past 8 O'Clock yesterday after
noon OF burns received the night before.
at about II O'Clock Wednesday night
Hr. Thomas Boiling, Jr., and wife, Mss
Lou Boiling, and MFR. Robert Hudgns, who
boards in the family, were in the parlor.
The ladies' left the gentlemen and went to
their rooms. s@>- ~ -'
Miss Boiling used twisted piece OF pa
per in lighting the gas, and then threw it
down upon the hearth. From what could
be learned from her after the sad occur
renoe, 1t seems probable that In pussing
about the fireplace, making her prepara-
mons for retiring, the burning paper was
swept under the trail OF her dress. She
was first alarmed by feeling the heat on her
back. After making some efforts TO sup
press the flames she called for Mrs. Boiling.
VINO came to her relief from the adjoiu-
ing room. The dress being OF light, in
liammablc material. nothing they could do
was OF avail, and their screams attracted
tho attention OF the gentlemen in the par
lor. go = = t..-
mdlheKw wtfnffa tfnAfattc f. LEI Hfeliefeg- 5.anke,s
or rugs in the room; bnt the bcd.sprea'l,
some woollcn clothes, and Il bucket Of water
were used to eNtinguiSh the fire, but not
successfully until after the unfortunate
young lady had received most gricyouS i'll
iurirS.
In attempting to help Miss Boiling. Mrs.
Boiin@'S dress caught. Her lie was saved
by lIcr husband throwing bucket OF water
upon her.
III the effort to tear the burning clothes
from his sister, Mr.. EolIing had both hands
very severely burned. In the same way
Mr.. Hud.nns cot thc tips OF tie fingers OF
his left hand burned; bGt bis injuries,
though nainfui. arc not If such consequence
rs MI. Bol!ing'S.
Miss Boiling was conscious until o'clock
yesterday morning, aud during all that time
her suiiariugs were frighttul indeed. Ii
was apparent TO al! around her that she
could not recover, and when, at falf-itast 3,
| death came, il was no matter Of surprise.
! though it carried tie most poignant grief
| to the boSoms 0f hcr large circle OF rc!a-
| tivcs and friends.
Miss Boiling was but twcnty-tllree years
of agc, and her life promised TO be one of
| happiness aud usefulness. When she left
the paror for her room she was in hl@h
spirits the conversation had been animated
and rL,ns for spending the summer had
been discussed with all the zest OF youth.
| She was member OF Grace Episcopal
! church. and WAS Il lady OF lovely disposition.
, Her sad and sudden ending is amenled By
the entire community.
The deceased was very pretty. Her face
was not distigGrcd, and Lcr cXilcssion in
death was pleasant.
The funeral will take place at O'Clock
tLs evening from Grace church.

DECISION OF JUDGE FITZHrGH IN THE
SrrEEr-RAlLwAY AND OMNIBUSSu1T.- Our
readers know that sorne months ago the
Richrnand Railway Company filed bill in
the Chancerv Court OF this city with the
chit CT or obtaining an Injunction TO restrain

plaiuant On Main street or upon the portion
OF the pawn" OF said street covered by or
embraced within said tracks, and for two
feet on either side beyond the outer side Of
said tracks. The case having been fully
maturcd for hcarlng. and not merely for Il
preliminary Injunction. Jud &c Fiizhugh. in
an exhaustive review OF tic law and evil
dcncc, concludes his very able opinion by
deciding
First. That it is unlawful for the defend
ant [Garberl o.run the wheels OF his cStab-
lishcd line of omnibu>es and carriages on
The iron rail or trampatn OF the plaintiff
[City Railway Company. but that in other
respects he Is entitled TO the same free use
OF the street that any other carriages, yehi-
clrs, &c. are by law entitled.
Second. That the weight Of evidence in
this case establishes the fact that The wheels
OF defendants SAID omnibuscs, il not la.
bitually at least with great frequency, have
been run upon the said iron rails Of the
plaintiffs railway, and that the defendant
and all others. his drivers and agents, should
be enioinad aud restrained from running
the wheels Of his said line OF omuibuseS,
carrying passengers for pay or hire, on the
said iron rails Of the plairtfl's railway or
any OF them, except so far as may be neces-
sarv t. cross from one side of the street to
tile other, or in passing other vehicles in
said street.
Th;rd. That the pantif recover costs.
Decree was entered accordingly.
