FIRE IN UPPER CANADA. A fire in Paken-
ham village has destroyed the Presbyterian
church and three houses. This fire originated
in manner so singular as hardly to be credit
ed. 1t appears that Mrs. Cross-her husband
being out at the time-was occupied in rubbing
her leg with high wines, and allowed her hand
with which she was applying the liqud) to
come in fame. To save her hand from being
burnt she thrust it into the bed clothes on an
adjoining bed, which had only the effect of
communicating the fame to them without ex-
tingushing it. No water being handy, the
jug containing the high wines was emptied on
the bed clothes to put the flames out! but, as
any one might have supposed by moments
reflection, it had quite an opposite effect, and
soon enveloped the whole house in flames
