Burning of an academy.

--On the 24th of November, the academy of Mr. McNair, near Sammitt, Miss., was burned to the ground — furniture and stores and the clothing and books of the pupils being nearly all lost. One of the pupils, Master J. M. Brown, an orphan, was burnt to death. The fire was the work of an incendiary.
