Fitzgerald'# Philadelphia "City Item,'1 of the 18th, gives the following account of an inciJeiit tlint oeciircd one evening lately at (lie Providence (H. I.) Theatre, 011 tlie occasion of tlie performance of "Koineo r.ml Juiiet.', It Look plucsin the fifth act. The piece, says the ncconnt, had been capitally played, and received by the audiencc with great approba. tion : The Inst scene conimcnced?there Was discovered the tomb of the Capulets enclosing the deeping Juliet. Komcn advanced with bar in in hand to wrench apart the marble jaws that liid his beloved one from his g.\ze; he struck tiie door. Itotli Koineo and the audience were Ilorificd at tlie erics of Juliet within?"save me ! save me !,' The door flew open and the most fearful sight, presented itself; Juliet was seen lvine on the bier enveloned in llmnes. The whole assembly was in consternation, tliough but few left the theatre. In 1ms time we take to write the circumstances, tho tomb was leveled to the stage ; lulict sprang boldly From the bier became one of-the most enegetic iti extinguishing tlie flames?The curtain fell ;it this point. Mrs. W. (!, Forbes was (lie Juliet, of the night, ami throughout this fearful situation acted in the most courageous and spirited manner. Many of her sex would have fainted or have been so terribly frightened as to have increased the danger, but Mrs. Forl>os lisplayed great presence of mind. She saw I hat. she could not open the door without reaching her arm.across the edge of the bier, ami in that easo would have inevitably ignited the sleeve of her dress, as the llanies were raging on both sides of the bier, making her appear engnlphed in liquid lire : so she tjaltiered the dress closely about, her and waited as (juicily as was possible, tinder the circumstances, for nil opportunity to cseajie. In springing from the bier her garments caught, but she rapidly extinguished them with the assistance of I he gentlemen present. The danger beingpassed, the fact was communicated to the audience, who received Ibe announceinent with every demonstration of delight. The scene was iiiimeiliatt'ly reset?the eurtniu rose, and Juliet was received with tremendous appbrise, ami was loudly called for at the termination of the gladdened assemblage. It appears that the jarring of the tomb by theblows of the bar in tin* hands of ltomoo, (Mr. Frank Ilardenburg) had disengaged a lamp, tilled with some very inflamable lluid, that was suspended from the roof of the tomb, and which in falling had rolled undi-r the bed, spiliing its contents in every direction. In a moment, of course, the whole mass was ignited. It was a ruost miraculous escape, for the lamp was hang iiig directly over the middle of the bier, and had it fallen on Mr. Forbes, nothing could have saved her from a horrid death. Mr. F. Harden uurg iic-iiavc in I lie most noble manner, risking his person nt every step; and so active was lieLlint he did not discover, till the excitement was entirely over, that one of his shoes had Ltcen burned fro in his foot. Ho played the par' >f Konieo beautifully, nor was his acting in the u<tt'o<{'tcc<l sciir any the less splendidly managed. A True and Touching Incident. The CJlasgow Christian Xews gives the following a* "no fiction, but the plain truth ?'' A young man and his wife were preparing l.o attend a Christmas party, at the house of n friend, some miles distant. "Henry, my dear husband, don't drink too much at the party today ; you will promise me, won't you ?"? said she, pul ling her hand upon his brow, and raising her eyes to his face, with a pleading smile. *'No, Millie, I will not- , you may trust me." And he wrapped his infant boy in a soft blanket, and they descended. The horses were soon prancing over the turf, and a pleasant conversation beguiled the way. "Now don't forget your promise," whispered the young wife, as lie passed up the steps. I'oor thing ! she was the wife of a man who loved to look on the wine when red. The party passed otT pleasantly ; the lime for departing drew nenr, and the wife descended from the upper chamber to join her husband. A pang shot through her trusting heart as she met liini, for he was intoxicated?lie had broken his promise. Silently they rode homeward, save when the drunken man broke into snatches of song or unmeaning laughter. > But the wife rode on, her babe pressed closely to her grieved heart. "Oivemc the baby, Millie : I can't trust yon with him,'r Faid ho. as thev approached a l?lsick and swollen stream. After some hesitation, she resigned lier lirst horn, hei darling babe, eloscly wrapped in a large blanket, to his arm. Over the darji waters the no. hie steed rifely hore them, and when they reaehed the bank tlie mother asked for tin eliihl. "With much care and tenderness 1?>' plaecd the bundle in her arms, but when she clasped it to her bosom, ho bale iras there 1 It had slipped from the blanket, and the drunk' en father knew it not, A wild shriek froin the mother aroused him, and he turned around just in time to see the little rosy face rise one moment, above the dark waters, then" sink for ever." What a spectacle! The idol of his heart gone?gone forever?and thn't by his own in teninfi-nnop Tli/> nnrmiali nf ?ti? nu.tl.?i. il.? rcniorae of the father, are better imagined than described.
