A Wing VoTER PRoscRtBsD.-The Lex
ington Statesman relates the following as
one o the incidents Of their late lively
campaign:
A certain Democratic young lady resid-
ing in Jessamine, who is a very ardent
friend OF Breckenridge, got a formal written
consent Of a certain young Letcherite, that
she the said young lady, might prevent the
said Letcherite from voting, by any means,
fair or foul. Pursuant to this agreement,
on Sunday night, after the young gentle
man had retired to bed, she sent a servant
to his room AMI got all the clothes of which
he had disrobed himself; going to his ward
robe she took all the rest Of his clothing
and placed them in a secure place beyond
the reach of the young man. At very
early hour on Monday morning, she, with
another young lazy placed herself on the
stairs down which the young Letcherite
must necessarily descend, if he descended
at all, and there the two ladies' sat all day,
keeping their ENGAGED bird Il close prisoner
until the closing of the polls in the even
ing, when they allowed him again to go at
large' The consequence was that the
young Letcherite didn't vote, aud Brecken-
ridges majority was increased one vote.

is stated that soon after the Cincinnati,
Wilmington and GAINESVILLE railroad was
commenced, the company authorised its
president, Mr.. f. Corwin, to proceed East,
and purchase iron for twenty miles ofthe
work, and no more. He did so, and found
that the price of the iron was so low that
he bought, on his own responsibility sufi-
Gent for seventy miles more, and before tn g
delivery Of the same, the price had advance
ed upon railroad iron at such a rate that the
amount he bought privately would realize
him $500, 900. Rather q handsome for
tune. Mr.. Corwin, however recently hand
ed over his whole contract TO the company,
thus sacrificing $500 900 for the benefit OF
