the earnest prayer of one who has abundant

We were greeted oa the same day by our
La t robe friend, James Fenlon.Esq., brother

we are mainly indebted to his kindness for j
the facts connected with the lamentable rle- !
atruction by fire of St. Xaviei'a Academy, j

riRK. One day last week the dwelling
Lonse of Mr. John Simme'.spsrger, iu. Chest

only four days before the occurrence, aud
had to be carried from the house, while her
husband was forced to shield the infant in
his arms and witness JHie destruction of his
duelling and all the household goods he had
in the world. There was ho insurance.
Tho situation of the family appeals to the
sympathy of the benevolent.

" Academy in Ruin. At half-past S o'clock
on Saturday afteruoon last, St. Xavicr's
Academy, located between Latroba and
1 oungstown. in V estmoreland ooaaty. wn
ed and conducted by the Sisters of Msrcy,
was dissovemi to be on ore, occasioned, as
was supoosed, by a defective Hue. ' Id an
incredibly short space of time the entire
building, with the adjoining chapel, was
wrapped in flames, acd ere long the bare
walls of the large and imposing edifice were
alone left to mark the spot. In addition to
the buildings, toe bulk U the furniture, in
eluding bods and bedding for over one hun
dred pupils, was consumed. Tko piaues,
the wardrobes of the pvpilg, and some other
articles were save! and this was owing
mainly to the devoted and ontiring energy
of the Sisters, who. with that self sacrificing
spirit which ever marks their pare and holy
lives, directed all their efforts to the rescuing
of the property ef their boarders while their
own was being destroyed. By almost su
perhuman exertions the fine marble aitar in
the chapel was preserved. The entire loss is
entimated at $1SQ.00, while the Insurance,
we understand, is not beyond 430,000
scarcely more than sufficient to cancel the
debt against the institution. Wo ean but
Join with every feeling heart la the hope
that there is enomgh of Christian charity in
the land to erect for the good Sisters another
aud moro secure home than theoae of which
they have been so suddenly and ruthlessly
deprived. They whose lives are devoted to
the education and comforting of the human
family, should not lack willing and useful
fi lends when misfortune comes upon thoir
own household.
The Pennsylvania Rail Road Company Is
deserving of the highest praiso for their gen- i
erous offer of free transportation to the shel
terless S sters and the young ladies mnder
thtlr charge. Mr. Creighton himself was at
Latrobe, and attended to the arrangement in
person ; and he, as well as the Company he
represents, have the warmest thanks of the
good Sisters, as well as of the children and
their parents. Many of the yoang ladles
were removed to Lorotto, while others were
taken to PitUburgb.
Facts abb STrsBOBW Taixei. Dr. Val
ecUue has been performing cures in Holli
daysburg that may well be considered mi
raculous. Let those that have been restored

Haifa drachm of sal ammonia in an ounce
of camphor water, to be taken a teaspoonful
at a dose, and tho dose repeated several
tims at intervals of five minutes, if the
paiu do not relieved at onee. Half a dozen
different persons have since tried the recipt,
and in every case an immediate cure has'
been affected. In one, the sufferer a lady,
had beuu affected for more than a week, and
her physician was unable to alleviate her
sufferings, when a solution of sal ammonia
iu camphor water relieved her in a few min
