A Noble Bow.

We mentioned, few aays ago, the
burning of the Tunnel Bridge, on the
Baltimb.e and Susqu ehannah Railrosd,
about five miles south Of York, aud since
learn that The conAagra!on came eefy
near being followed 81 one Sf the most
terrible disasters that has lately Occurred
in railroad travel. It is supposed that
the bridge took fire from the freight
trains, which passed about half-past 7 o.
clock in the morning, aha the structure
was totally enyeloped in flames before it
was discovered by the residents in the
vicinity. At about 6 o'clock the frame
work o. the bridge fell through, and
among the spectators. some twenty in
number, was little boy about welye
jeafs Of age, named Eli Rheehf who,
remembering that me express passeng ger
tram was then about due from York, star
ted off at the top of his speed 10 endeavor
to stop the train, which he knew must
be close at hand. AS soon as he reached
the curve, about two hundred yards from
the bridge. he observed the train coming
on at tull speed, and fearing that he
would be unable to stop them unless by
the use Of exttspidinsty means, the noble
little fellow took his position Oh the track,
and runningtowards the approaching train
with his hands raised caug hit the. attention
of the engineer. VINO Immediately fevere.
ed his engine, and stopped within four
hundred yards Of impending destruction.
the piers being some twenty feet from the
rocky bed below, and the gap some sixty
feet wide. Had the R5y not placed him
self on the track, he wonld doubtless have
failed in. his noble effort, as Ahe engineers
are SO Often cheated by hischieSous boys
on The route: that :hey seldom pay any
|atteR.ion to them. Even when he stop

BY youngsiei WITH More daring fllS1 his
associates, and was SURPRISED to see the lit
tile flaxen. headed fellow stand his gtound,
and, endeavoring. to recover his lost breath
to answer his question as to the cause oil
his intettuption. We learn that the pas
sengers, when they aseertaincd the cause
6f the stoppage Of the train, and viewed
the pretiPice over which they were near
being. dashed, literally rewarded the boy
for his presence Of mind and daring and
that the Board Of Directors at their meet
ing yesterday, appropriated 500 as an ad
lditional recompense. Eli Rheem, a boz
but twelve years Of age, was the only on
