(From our own Correspondent)

FATAL ACCIDENT.—A sad accident happened to the youngest child of Mr. John Gilbert last Friday morning. As they were sitting at breakfast the baby—a fine little girl of eight months—seized hold of the tea pot filled with hot tea and upset it over her chest and back, scalding the little one so severely that she only survived her injuries about twenty four hours. The funeral on Sabbath was very largely attended. A very excellent and suitable discourse was preached by the Rev. E. E. Howard, at the M. E. Church, before proceeding to the Presbyterian Cemetery.
