From the st. Thomas Bulletin Of 7A April.)

A very distressing incident took place
Yesterday morning at Estate Botany
Bay" the properly Of Mr.. w. White. 1t
appears that Mr.. White, together with Mr..
Scott, OF the Colonial Bank, were occupied
in burning a large field of dried grass by
s. ttimg fire at different places, without cal
culating the direction Of the wind, and be-
fore the two gentlemen could realize the
danger they We're exposed to, they were
hemmed in by the burning element. They
then took refuge in the centre Of the field
on a pile of rocks; the flames, however, ap-
preaching and the heat becoming unbeara-
BILE, both jumped from the rocks, but fell
into the flames and were dreadfully burnt,
especially about their heads, faces and
hands. They succeeded i'll getting out of
the fire and III reaching the dwelling house,
where Mr.. White remained owing to his
inability to move, but Mr.. Scott, who was
not quite as badly burnt as his compan-
ion, started for town and fer a terrible
journey reached Estate "Altona," where
he was kindly received and attended to
while q conveyance was being procured to
take him to town. Mr. White was brought
to town early this morning and placed in
the Mill AIRY Hospital. We understand that
the condition of both gentlemen this morn
ing is deplorable: we trust, however, that
we will shortly be able to offer a more ia
vourable report

Orientals at Their Meals.

A lady writing from Jerusalem to the
Lewiston (Me,) Journal says: Meats
generally are boiled and pulled apart
with the fingers. Knives and forks are
quite ny known. The Arabs are aston
ished at the skill with which foreigners
handle knives and forks. The oriental
seizes piece of meat from the. dish
with his fingers, tears off the morsel OF
his choice and puts the rest back into
the dish. Or if he has an honored
guest, he fingers out nice piece of
meat and insists on inserting it in his
guests mouth. One can easily see how
necessary it is to wash ones hands after
eating soup with ones fingers! Well,
here comes q servant in petticoats, q sort
of hungry-looking Esau in a red skull
cap and barefooted. He fetches pitch
er and basin and pours water over
our fingers, the water dripping into the
BASIN So did Elisha, the son of Shap-
81, who poured water on the hands OF
Elijah. Jesus, you remember, after the
memorable supper of this sort, girded
himself with a napkin and did even
more mental service--washing not only
the guests hands, but their ct. There
could be no higher proof Of humility to
an oriental mind!

Need Of Economy.

One Of the hardest lessons in life for
young people to learn is to practice
economy. It is harder duty for a
young man to accumulate and save his
first 81 900 than his next $4,000. A
man can be economical without being
mean, and it is one of his most solemn
duties to lay up sufficient in his days of
strength and prosperity to provide for
himself and those who are or may be
dependent upon him in days of sickness
or misfortune. Extravaganza is one of
the greatest evils Of the present age. It
is undermining and overturning the loft
lest and best principles that should be
retained and held sacred in society. It is
annually sending thousands of young
men and young women to ruin and mis-
fortune
Cultivate then, sober and industrious
habits; acquire the art ofputting a little
aside every day and for your future
necessities: avoid all foolish and unnec-
essary expenditures. Spend your time
only in such manner as shall bring
profit and enjoyment, and your money
for such things as you actually need for
your comfort and happiness, and you
Will prosper in your lives, your business,
and will win and retain the respect and
honor of all worthy and substantial
people.

1t is my belief that the uproar has been
created by some of the lean and hungry

communicated their opposition to leco1.

It ought to be said that the wearers Of

Chicago Tribune. p
The Hamburg relatives of an adven-
turous German emigrant are reported
to have fallen heir to a fortune of great
magnitude. The story is going the
rounds of the German press. Seventy
years ago dissolute young poacher left
bis native village Of Kirchsteinbeek,
where he was in bad odor and had fre-
quent difficulties with the police and
game-keepers, and embarked for Cape
Colony, where he became, in course OF
time, q prosperous planter and stock
raiser, and the owner of one ofthe most
valuable estates in the ]. settlement.
Late IN life be sold this property for q
large sum, and took up his residence in
London. Fortunate speculations there
increased his wealth still more, and
when he died interstate, some years ago,
his property was worth over SIC, 0O0, 900.
Efforts to discover his heirs proved un-
availing until recently, and the estate
has ever since been waiting for them in
Chancery The people who now inher-
1t this wealth supposed their adventur-
GUS relative dead long ago. s
