the l4th Llt. in Plttsy lyania county. Va
by Owen Atkins, and John b. Boiling,
ten miles distance, starting al the store
of MesFs, Smith aud MooIman, and
keeping the road nearly in northerly
direction. fbe greatest anxiety was
manifested by the friends of the parties.
Boiling is tall tfim looking young
man, about d years Of age, and was the
favoEiie courser, though few kIewing
ones. who had been engaged with At
kins, Ga nan about s6 years of age, in
hunting parties, and who was fully ac-
quainted with his speed aud bottom,
predicted quite different result
When the time Of starting had nearly
arrived, the friends of the parties who
we're fearful OF disagreeable consequent
ces, eDdeavored TO have the race drawn
to which Atkins showed some degree Of
Willingness. while the other, who before
had been quiet, now became restless,
and appeared anxious Tor the word To
be gwen. which was accordingly done.
The coutsers put off briskiy, aud were
followed by so persons on horse back.
The frs. several hundred yards they
ran nearly locked, after which Atkins
took the lead. and kept It during the
whole course, which he. as near as
could be ascegtained, ran in about forty
minntesy
Boiling, after running about miles
gave up the race Atkins and his par.
~ were so far ahead that they could not
be cvertaken by those who were on
horseback, until he had run the ten
miles By the best judges il is beliey.
ed, that no man in Virginia is able to run
ten miles with Atkins OF the

During the storm on Wednesday even
ing last, the Presbyterian Church in this
borough was struck by lightning, and
slightly injured. TO the circumstance of a
conductor being attached to the edifce, it
is probable its preservation from destruc-
ton is attributable. The cotton factory of
Mr.. B. Merely, we learn, was also struck
on the same evening, but the electric fluid
was happily carried off by the conductors,
without doing injury to the building. The
utility of lightning rods, has, in these in
stances, been strikingly illustrated, and we
think that no owner of property should de-
lay of availing himself of security for his
buildings so effective, and go cheaply pur-
chased.
