too weak to earn sustenance, and his pride re-
VOTED at applying to strangers for relief. He
saw his wife grow paler and paler yet without
murmur or tear; he felt that she had watched
over his illness till death had almost made her
his own, and as he strained her wildly TO his
bosom, he resolved to make one last effort to
move her guardian, even at the price of leav-
ing her forever. But he kept his intention Sc
cret from her. He made pretence one day
that he had business to the country, and steal
ing from her fastened TO -, where by acct
dent he met Mr.. Wilson just as he reached the
village. But the guardian was pitiless. Stung
by his injustice the young man with an an
gushed heart, left him at the entrance of a
wood which skirted the town, and, almost mad
with his gloomy prospects, he set out that
very night for the city. To his aston

his sweet wife had brought to me.

CHESAPEAKE AND Ono CANAL. The Cum
berland Alleghanan, in speaking of the bond
required by the law for the completion of the
Canal, says:
owe have seen three bonds for 10, 900 tons
each, which have been largely signed by men
of property in our community. We learn that
it is now proposed to have bond for 100, 900
tons to be signed by all the property owners in
tho county. This will be in addition to what
the Coal Companies in the county may do
These companies have not yet acted on the qua
rantee. The principal stockholders in most Of
the Coal Companies live in New York, and
there has not been time yet for them to act up
on the subject of the guarantee. In few
days these Coal Companies will act upon this
subject, and we hope to hear Of them giving
liberal amount of the security. In the mean
time, we are informed that the EroStbug Coal
Company, which obtained charter at the last
session OF the Legislature, and which owns
some 800 acres Of those splendid Coal Mines
originally, and Tor many years, owned and pos
scssed by the Messrs. Frosts, have within few
days organized under their charter, and agreed
TO enter into bond with security for 90, 600 tons,
which will DO executed as soon as the company
obtains common seal. II the other coal com
panies come forward with the same liberal spir-
it accordingssto their means, the guarantee will
be given for the whole 1876 900 tons with abun.
dant security. We have also seen bond,
executed by some sixty of the cnterprising citi-
zens of Georgetown in the district of Column
bia, and backed by thesecurity of the corporate
authorities of the town for 10000 tons-and
also letter, saying that any further amount
can be given, which may be required We
have no doubt THAT the cities ofWashington and
Alexandria will also do their duty. Ten thou

N. Y, put up at tavern in that county on
Monday evening last, and about 8 o'clock the
house was entered by a party of 25 persons,

seized the sheriffs, and took them off, They
were soon joined by about $50 persons, disguis-
ed, and armed with pistols, muskets, toma-
hawks and knives; of the muskets, rs were
counted with bayonets. Having supplied the
sheriff and deputy with Indian caps they were
placed in the centre OF the party, and marched
some four miles up the West-kll, and thence
to the summit of the mountain, in the woods
remote and dreary place. There they had
pow-wow around them, after having searched
them unsuccess(ully for papers; and at about 9
o'clock at night they marched back to the ia
vcrn, where they left them without further mo-
lestaton On the route, going and returning,
