"L0I. Sell ers' To-night.-The talented actor
John L. Raymond will tonight appearin Full
ton opera house in his great character of Col.
Mulberry Sellers adapted from Mark Twain's
famous creation. Mr. Rnymond's reputation
as 4 first.class comedian will doubtless serve
to attract Il large audience to the opera house,
where Il thoroughly delightful onter tatnment
may be safely assured.
Salrio.i.-Thc young American tragedian,
Frederick Paulding. will on Thursday night
appear at the opera house i'm the play of /" Sal
via,i.'' adapted from the French. He imper-
sona,cs the title character, and the Albany
Ereuiny Journal paws this tribute to his abili.
ties: Mr.. Pauliing assumes the character of
Raphael SaEriati, and in the prologue and the
firstly acts feigns dumbness. The decided
novelty OF the character is sufficient alone to
attract attention and interest, and as may be
imagined, it affords opportunity for strong
acting. His make-upis excellent, and his act
ingis earnest and conscientious. In the third
act which is the most interesting, he regains
his speech. and several really strong scenes
are given with good effect. The company is
above the average. and rendered the star ac-
certable support"

TUESDAY EVENING, JAN. 10, 1881.
BURNING OIL,

DISASTROUS Flames in Philadelphia
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 1S.-About half
past two o'clock this morning one of the
tanks at the Atlantic oil refinery at Point
Breeze exploded with terrific force and
the burning oil was scattered in every d.
rection. The conclusion broke windows a
mile distant and the flames spread rapidly.
not only to the adjoining tanks, but to the
wharf and shipping. Four tanks soon
took fire, and a number of vessels which
are aground in the Schuylkill were
quickly ablaze, as they could not be
hauled of. A dispatch received from the
immediate vicinity at 9:15 a. III. says the
entire place is on fire.
II a. M.-The report that the shipping
is on fire seems to have been premature,
for it is now stated that all the vessels
were intact at 9 o'clock. There are two
loaded vessels in the stream, however, op-
posite the works which are burning,
namely, the Competitor, with filled cases,
and the Maryland, with filled barrels. One
Of the city ice boats has gone to their
assistance. The wharves arc all in flames
and the employees have been compelled
to leave the offices.
The fire originated i'll an asitator. The
explosion was heard and felt at the extreme
northern points in this city, and as far
down the river as Chester. The last great
fire at the works occurred in June. 1878.
Ills a. m.-All the shedding along the
wharves are now Oh fire and the destruc-
ton of the whole works greatly depends
upon the force and direction Of the wind.
Noon-The fire is now under control.
AS the vessels were removed from danger,
the flames were confined chiefly to the
warehouse and wharyes. There were
stored in tho warehouse elven thousand
cases Of oil. The Standard oil company
insures its own property from its reserve
fund.-
