The Saginaw (Mich.) Morning Herald of Sept. 2ncl gives particulars of a most dis- tressing - accident, which took place at Johnsonme 's li: kiln in that city on• the previous evening. The work for the day was about over, and the men were engaged in removing the-buriat Erne from the kiln. This is done from below, and it not unfre- quently happens that after a quantity has been removed it is found. an arch has been formed by the stone, which is put in from the top and the mass above thereby pre- vented from: coming down, and held sta- tionary. IJsually this can be removed by striking it through apertures made for the' purpose in the side of . the kiln; . but. such was not the ease yesterday. The Stone was found to be wedged so tightly as to render it necessary to go on the • top and loosen it with crew -bars, Mt.
