Melancholy Sight.

On Friday morning, shortly after the
steamer Baltimore landed at our wharf 10
transfer its passengers to the railroad, we
met on our way to the Office, amid the
crowd of passengers thronging the walk
to the depot, two persons, walking little
isolated from the others and close TO each
other side by side. You may ask US what
there was in these two men peculiar to
themselves. or different from the great
crowd with which they were surrounded
of lfe's wayfarers We will tell you.-
Both were men Of gentlemanly bearing,
appearance and dress both we're Of plea
sing, rather prepossessing expression Of
countenance; both were young, Just in the
prime OF life ; but when you came closer
you observed one had upon his person
the manacles of a felon, the iron links of
which made melancholy music at each
step OF his march to prison and to doom.
The person by his side was an officer of
the law, in whose strict custody the un-
fortunate man was placed, to be taken to
his destination. What an illustration did
this scene present, of the omnipotent ma
Jesty OF the law in the land. Most, per-
haps, all, piticd the man but condemned
the crime, yet for hundreds of miles. bv
land and by water, through crowds. a
sing lie individual, under the mandate of
the law, was safely and quietly conduct
ing his prisoner to the place of trial and
no doubt, of punishment.
The facts OF this case, as we learn them
are these The name Of the prisoner is
ThOs. Jefferson Silvers, and he is hus-
band and father. He was arrested in
Cincinnati, Ohio, upon a charge of pass
ing large sums Of counterfeit money in
Norfolk, Va, and was being taken to Nor
folk for trial, under n requisilion from the
Governor of this State. 1t is further sta.
ted that he had upon his person, when
arrested in Norfolk, in A prl last, from
whence he escaped by breaking Jail, Jus t
before his trial, ten thousand dollars in
counterfeit tens on the Bank of North
Carolina, SO well executed as to almost
defy detection even at the counter of the
Banks upon which they were forged. He
was engaged in Cincinnati in building a
steamboat at the time Of his arrest. He
IS said TO have attempted to commit sui
eide on the boat by casting himself over
board on his way hither. and thai strict
watch BY the officers, was constantly me-
cessary to prevent it. .......--
