Northumberland county, near the Paradise church, was. destroyed by fire on Friday night, amid the most thrilling circumstances, the family being awakened by the roof falling iu over their heads aud being driven forth into the night, barely escaping with their lives. Mr. Eschbach's home was one of the better class of farm houses,a large and roomy home beautifully and comfort ably furnished. During the evening a stove in au out kitchen had been used audit Is thought that the fire caught • from a defective flue leading from this j stove. The stove was in use about 9 o'clcok J to heat water for bathing purposes and soon after that the family retired. ! About 11 o'clock Mr. aud Mrs. Esch baoh were awakened by the crash of timbers as the roof of their home fell iu. They jumped from bed to find the whole upper part of their home in flames. They barely had time to awaken their children aud run from the house before the whole strncture was wrapped in flames. The house Is a total ruin ami every thing that it contained was destroyed, the occupants not having time to save even their clothing. Mr. Esohbach had been carrying in surance on his home, but the policy expired last Tuesday. He estimates his loss at about 630C0. HOUSE A LANDMARK.

The Esohbach place known as Fallowfield, was pur chased from the Penns by the great grandfather of the present owner iu 1804. The bnrned house was built by his grandfather iu 1814, aud was sub stantially constructed. Iu the build ing were a large number of heirlooms, among them two chests brought over from Switzerland by the elder Esoh bach during the latter part of the eigh teenth century, aud many valuable | pioce.s of old furniture, silver aud books aud papers that no amount of ! money could have purchased.
