TRULY DISTRESSING FIRE.
The Pottsville Emporium of January 4th, says: “On Tuesday evening last, the house of Philip Steinbuch, at Port Carbon was entirely destroyed by fire, and horrible to relate, three of his children fell victims to the devouring element.  Four children, it seems were left at home while the parents went to church, and when the fire was first discovered it advanced so far that it was impossible to enter the house and rescue the little sufferes. The eldest child escaped and took refuge at a neighbors.

SEVERED RIGHT – Pierce Butler, of Philadelphia, the rich greenhorn who married Fanny Kemble, the accomplished actress, some fifteen years since, and who has lately been making a fool of himself a second time, by trying to get a divorce from her in order to get rid of paying for her support – has finally settled up by agreeing to pay his wife one thousand dollars a year, and giving her one of the two children.
