for the relief of the unfortunate victims,
though little hope is entertained of the
hie of more than one or two of them
They present a truly horrible appearance,
the skin and flesh being entirely torn off
portions of their bodies-; The screams and
shrieks of the scalded persons are described
as truly heart-rending, and' frantic efforts
to escape were made by them. One of
them, who had the skin and finger nails
torn entirely off, ran a distance of perhaps
twenty-ave yards into an adjoining room
and jumped through a window glass to
the ground, a fall of about ten feet.
What with the fragments of brick and
timber strewed around, the groans of the
wounded and their ghastly appearance, the
scene was absolutely indescribable.
fceveral causes have been assigned, for
the bursting of the boiler, among others
that the Hues were weak and defective, but
the theory advanced above seems to be the
most generally accepted. This catastrophe
will serve to point a noral, if? nothing
more, It shows the utter fol ly, not to say
criminality, of putting an ignorant negro,
who has no Klea of the principles upon

day will bo heeded.

"Can't Do Without It." This is what
the stage and liorse car companies, liverv
stable keepers, members of the turf, and all
grooms and trainers say of the Mustan
Liniment. They "can't do without it."
And why ? Because it infallibly reduces
niu cjtirnai sweiungs, which, under
various names, impair the usefulness and
value of the king of quadrupeds, and also
because, for sprains, strains, galls and
other injuries to which horse-flesh is liable,
it is the most trustworthy preparation in
die market. Yet these recommendations
comprise only a portion of its claims to
public confidence. During a period of
mure man sixteen years, it lias been re
cognized as a spet ific for many of the mot
agonizing disorders which afflict the hu
man family such "as rheumatism, gout,
neuralgia, lumbago, ticdoloreux, sore
throat, earache, toothache ; and likewise

burns and scalds.
