The Fire around LioySsuHe "A very de-
structive aud terrible conGagration ragged in
the mountains in the vicinity of Lloydsville
Cambria county, last Thursday night An
Altoona paper gives the following account OF
it "The fire had its origin in some refuse
matter in the yard of Plack & Glunt's saw
mill Everything being intensely dry the
devouring element spread rapidly in every
direction, endangering the mill, as well as the
mills of Reynolds and Mcfarland Besides
the destruction of timber, miles of tnmways
and thousands of cords of bark were burned
The people of Lloydsyille kept watch oil
night lest the flames might attack their vii
lage In fact the smoke of the confagration
was so dense that many feared sufiocation il
they retired to bed. Parties who have been
on the ground represent the fire as very great
and destructive"

INSURANCE RuzzARpS.

The Tyrone Herald, of the 25th inst, gives
an instance of Speculative Life Insurance, and
comments on il as follows I'VE had thought,
as intimated elsewhere, that the bOne-yard
sharks were about giving Tyrone the cold
shoulder, but we were mistaken few, if not
more So An insurance raid was made on the
town yesterday, for purpose that will herein
appear MauX Kaufman, who is lingering
on the very edge of the grave, was recently
insured for 100000. Yesterday II was quietly
intimated by some one in the interest of the
graveyard agents, that Maux was about ready
to go, when crowd of Huntingdon county
agents appeared on the scene, and after CON
sultation, II was decided that he couldn't die
easy unless few more policies were issued.
These papers are called death policies and
there is no word-fooling about it, They are
Just what they claim TO be When subject
is in the act of dying, his friends the death
hawks, pounce upon him like buzzards upon
a putrid carcass, and iasten him with the
graphing irons of their insurance machinery.
Kaufman was fixed over again, and near as
we can ascertain, is now insured for about
100000 The outcome of all this will be, old
Maux win die one of these days, and his
charitable friends the ghouish policy hold
ems will come in for the spoils, say 100000.
This may OF may not be a legitimate business.
AT any rate these fellows follow it up with
impunity. Somebody ought to apply the
legal nippers TO these death-spcculators, and
if II is all right, let them 60 ahead. Let them
enjoy their constitutional rights. There are,
no doubt, cases where these men, or some of
their gang, help their subjects out of the way.
A good plan, and a just one, to settle the ac-
count with them, would be to get them heav-
lily insured through their own agencies, and
then hang them.'

This Princess Dolgoruuka, or the
Princess Jurievska, rs she has been
styled since her morganatic marriage,
was with her sister AZ the moment of the
Assassl in alton. She drove rapidly to the
Winter Palace in q sledge, and remained
In the Cars chamber until his eldest
son entered the room, When she immedi
ateiy Withdrew. Alexander Ill. had an
interview with her, and her chilaren will
be- provided for, while she will be allowed
to remain In Russia. The Emperor even
Intends TO announce her marriage with
bis late Father as . lAot and supreme
tcken of respect for his memory. A cor.
respondent of the Pail Mall Gazette at
Plymouth writes: "a few weeks ago an
advertisement appeared for an English
goyerness TO reside abroad. Among those
who answered the advertisement was the
daughter of naval officer, who received
q visiL from a lady lodging at Newton,
4, no wished to engage young lady to
20 LoISt. Petersburg and instract three
childlen in English. The young lady's
father, on applying to the Russian Em-
bassy to which he had been referred, re-
celveh such assurances as removed all
scruples, aud she went to st. Petersburg.
On her arrival there she was taken TO the
Winter Palace, shown the apartments
she was to occupy, and next day was in
trodlIced to the Emperor, and by him
t ken to his wife, the Princess Del
gorouka, and their three children. The
Gear explained to Miss j. that 1t was his
desire the children should be taught
English by the eompapionship of an
English lady like herself, whose conver-
sation would tamiliaIize them with the
language, and that he and the Princess
desired her to be on anectIonate terms
with The children, only she was not 10
kiss them. A splendid retriever came
into the room, and going up to the new
arrival, licked her hand. Calling the at
tention of the Princess to this incident,
The Gear observed that it was happy
omen of the friendly feeling which he
hoped would exist between Miss J. and

ED.
Yesterday afternoon, John Dona.
hue, dealer in coal oil, corner Of

near losing his life. Mr.. Donahue

and while here met a number of
friends and Joined them in a social

When on his return home he
stopped for few minutes on Third

friend. Having finished their con-
versation, they each started on their
respective ways and Mr.. Donahue
had gone but a few steps, when by
some means he fell from the bridge
into the Christiana.
His struggles in the water attrac-
ted the attention OF passer-by who
quickly gave the alarm. Bridge
tender William Bareford in an lna
credibly short space of time jump
ed into boat and started to the un-
fortunate mans rescue. He was
none too soon, however, as the man
was going down the last time when
Mr.. Baretold caught him, and with
considerable difficulty landed HIM in
the boat. He was conveyed to his
home in an almost frozen condition

TIRE PENNsYLVANIA's PURCHABK.-
The Philadelphia Times quotes PIesi-
dent Roberts, of the Pennsyl lvania Rail
road Company, as saying Friday las
that he had not been informed officially
of The exact amount of stock in posses
sion of the Boston committee or the
Philadelphia, W Wilmington and Baltimore
RAILROAD, but lie had received telegram
indicating that 1t would be about 200,-
900 shares. On the basis of this telegram
to Mr.. Roberts says the purchase of the
Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore
Railroad will cost the Pensy lvania Rail
road Company about $lS, 100000, ihclud-
ing the bonded Indebtedness of the fol-
mer company, which has been converted
into stock. The same paper quotes
President Hinckley, OF The Philadelphia,
Wilmington and Baltimore Railroad, as
saving that the only unsatisfactory tbiIg
about the purchase to the stockholders
in his company is the possibility OF their
having to search for other investments
tor their money. Secul e and profitable
investments are not so plentiful as might
ue supposed. A considerable portion of
the stock has been held by guardians OF
agents, and to all such the diaculties
aud emDarfassments incidental to a cash
payment would be increased. As con-
sequence any arrangement by which
cash payment for the stock could be
avoided would be acceptable to the Phil
