MOST MELANCHOLY ACCIDENT. -- Yesterday morning a frightful accident occurred in Ballynafeigh -- At about five o'clock, as some labourers were at work in the fields adjoining Ballymacarrett, their attention was attracted to the cabin of a poor woman named Gaddis, by a thick volume of smoke issuing from the door. On reaching the door, the spectacle that presented itself was appalling -- the only daughter of the owner of the house, a fine interesting young woman, who had been left alone in the cabin, was seen lying on a bed literally wrapped in flames, every part of her dress was consumed by the fire, and her clothes had communicated with the bedding, which was likewise burnt. When with much difficulty the raging flames were quenched, imagination could not picture the terrific work that had been done on their victim -- her body resembled in colour a scorched piece of paper, the flesh having the appearance of roasted meat -- her breasts were so far consumed, that the paps were gone -- the lips, and mouth, and nose, mostly destroyed, one of the eyes burnt in the socket, and the entire hair of the head burnt off. But the hands, perhaps, presented the most shocking appearance of all, for some of the fingers were consumed to the stump, and the others were reeking with blood that bubbled: there from the action of the flames. Those fingers which were not destroyed, were altogether deprived of the skin, which, as is usual with the labouring class, being hard and thick, peeled of and lay on the ground like cases cases for fingers. Yet the miserable being lived, and was in perfect possession of her understanding. Fevered with excessive thirst, she asked for water, of which she greedily drank such quantities, that it flowed out of her mouth again. The patience and resignation of the poor creature were truly impressing -- at noon the Clergyman of Ballymacarrett visited her, and she was so calm and collected, as to join audibly with him in prayer, and even said, with apparent contentment, that her sufferings were nothing to His who died upon the cross a sacrifice for her sins. She still lingers in unspeakable agony. The accident arose from her apron catching the fire before which she had been standing. It is a remarkable circumstance, that all the day preceding, which was Sunday, she could not be induced to cease from reading the Bible, and when told she would injure her sight by so close application, she replied, "I don't know how soon I may die, and then I will want my sins to be pardoned."
=========================
On Thursday a melancholy accident happened at Antrim -- During the exhibition of Mr. Wombwell's menagerie of wild beasts, the lion had been irritated by the pranks of one of the visitors, who was in liquor -- one of the keepers endeavoured to soothe him, when he seized the unfortunate man by the shoulder, which was torn in a dreadful manner. The poor fellow died on Saturday morning in great agony.

On Tuesday last the party of revenue police stationed at Enniskillen, under Lieut. Lennon, made a seizure of a large quantity of barley-balt, stills, &c. &c, on an island in our upper lake, near Belturbet, which they landed from the revenue boat on the evening of the same day, near the barrack, when the Supervisor of Excise, after measuring the malt, destroyed it by scattering it in the lake. -- Ferman.

DISTRESS IN IRELAND.
Friday last, as 13 drays with potatoes, were coming from Navan to Dublin market, they were attacked in Dunshaughlin, by a mob, headed by a woman; the sacks were cut and 22 cwt. of potatoes carried off. The police did not interfere; but the carmen applied to the commandant of the police for protection, and a party was sent to protect them from further molestation. Two or three persons were taken into custody. Same morning a boat belonging to Messrs. Joyce and M'Mahon, with corn, on her way from Mullingar to Dublin, was stopped at Cappagh by a mob; the sacks were cut, and when it was discovered that they were not potatoes, the boat was allowed to proceed. Similar outrages have occurred in different parts, in consequence of the scarcity of provisions, a calamity which, at this season of the year, is felt in an extreme degree.
The distress continues unmitigated, and famine is advancing upon us wich rapid strides. Cases of individual suffering are hourly accumulating -- robberies are committed for the purpose of obtaining a comfortable meal, even with the concomitants of being branded as a felon. Store-houses are broken open and plundered -- cattle slaughtered in the fields, and part of their carcases carried off to satisfy the cravings of hunger. -- Castlebar Telegraph, June 23.
A correspondent of the Telegraph says -- "From the rise in provisions, and the want that exists in many parts of Mayo, it is matter of surprise that no steps have been taken to alleviate the distress by the managers of the London Tavern Committee Fund (who have a capital, I believe, of £10,000 in this country); which funds were collected in England and elsewhere for the purpose."
The Committee of the Provision Fund commenced their labours on Saturday, and dealt out to those able to buy, 600 stones of potatoes, at 5½d. Retail prices opened this morning at 7d. The efforts to escape from shipwreck, or a house on fire, could only equal the frenzied efforts made by the poor to obtain a small supply of potatoes, at what they considered a reduced price. -- Kilkenny Journal.
The greatest distress prevails among the poor, who are unable to purchase half-food for their families. In the town there is some employment for labouring classes, but there are many room keepers starving; and in country parts great misery is observable. No scarcity of provisions in this quarter, but the price is beyond the reach of poor persons. -- Enniskillen Chronicle.
Tuesday, a Meeting of the Citizens was held in the Court-house, Londonderry, Sir R. A. Ferguson, Bart. in the chair, for the purpose of devising the best means of alleviating the distress that prevails among the labouring class, in consequence of scarcity of employment, and the high price of provisions. After much conversation, from which it was evident how sincerely those present sympathised with the poor, it was agreed, that a fund should be raised; by subscription, for providing employment for such as had claims from local residence, and strictly confined to such. A Committee was appointed, and on Friday they went from house to house, and it is but justice to the citizens to say, that they contributed with their usual liberality. -- Derry Sentinel.

DREADFUL RIOTING IN LIMERICK.
From the Dublin Evening Post of Saturday -- An account from Limerick, written yesterday at three o'clock, gives a frightful relation of the state of things. At seven in the morning a large mob seized provisions from an open shop; this outrage was the signal for a more general riot, the numbers increased to an alarming extent, and proceeded to rob every provision store they came to; there is scarcely one in the whole city that has not been plundered; on the first breaking out of the riot, shops were shut, but they were broken open, and bread, flour, pork and bacon, were seen carrying off in all directions. Seven people had been shot by individuals protecting their property. The provision stores being all ransacked, the mob commenced breaking into the Spirit Shops, and drinking to excess. Just as our correspondent closed his letter, stones had been thrown at the soldiers, and they had consequently commenced firing.
Extract of another Letter. -- The town is in a dreadful state of confusion; plundering of provisions is going on in every direction. Mr. M'Laughlin's Flour Warehouse has been forced and sixty bags of flour carried off. Two men have been shot near his premises. The military and police are actively employed, but the spread of the populace is so extensive they can afford but partial protection.
FURTHER PARTICULARS. -- A new scene now opened. -- Notwithstanding the active movements of the garrison, and the exertions of the Magistrates, by which this dreadful torrent was dispersed in every direction, yet they contrived to re-unite near the Linen Hall, when they entered the butter weigh-house, and every firkin or parcel of butter in the house, was instantly taken off -- but owing to the intrepid conduct of the victuallers of the New Market, who made a dash at the assailants, the greater part of the property was recovered. Mr. Roche lost over 40 firkins. The mob are still carrying dismay in every quarter, but are promptly followed by the troops, whose forbearance is highly creditable to their feelings for a wretched, though ill-directed population. Some thousands are now gone out to Black-Water Mills. God only knows where or how it will terminate.
LIMERICK, SATURDAY NIGHT 10 O'CLOCK
Since the alarming accounts which have bren forwarded to you, I am glad to inform you that no further excesses have been committed. Very dreadful apprehensions, however, still exist, and the city presents the aspect of great commotion and terror. The destruction of property has been immense.

CAPTAIN BRITTON -- SHIP JOSEPINE. -- In consequence of the extraordinary and unparalleled short passage which the Packet Ship Josephine, Captain Thomas Britton, made on her last voyage from Belfast to New York, despatched by Messrs. Malcomson and Bell, (only 15 days and 12 hours from port to port!) a considerable sum of money has been subscribed in New York, and lodged in the hands of James Lawson, Esq. there, to be laid out in the purchase of a handsome piece of plate, bearing a suitable inscription, to Captain Britton; commemorative of that event. The plate will, we understand, be presented to the Captain on his return to New York. This is a very proper tribute paid to nautical skill and good conduct.

DESERTED CHILDREN. -- The shocking, unnatural crime of laying down, and exposing children on the streets, has become very common here of late. On Wednesday night, last week, a child, about two months old, was exposed in Gordon-street; on Saturday night, one, about a month old, was left at Mrs. M'Nabb's door, in Joy's-entry; and on Monday night, another about a week old, was found in a nettle bush, at Duff's Curds and Cream-House, on the Falls-road. These children were immediately carried to the Police-office, and nurses promptly provided for them by Mr. Lindsay, Chief Constable of the Night Watch.
