WILD RACE OF A LocoMoTIvE.--In the Gin
cinnati Commercial of Saturday last we find an
account of a somewhat singular collision on the
Miami road, at Milford. The engine Of freight
train ran into the rear car of a passenger train,
which was standing still at the depot. The
Commercial says:
when Mr.Watt, engineer Of the mail train,
heard the crash of the collision, he supposed
his own train would be driven over him, and,
with his assistants, sprang off. The furnace
had Just been crammed with wood, and there
was a full head Of steam on. The force of the
blow uncoupled the locomotive and tender from
the baggage car, Mt the same instant jerking
the lerer and Hroping the throttle valre ride
open! Away sped the locomotive like an ar
row, or, if we might so say like fiat Of Om-
impotence, sweeping down the track at seventy
miles an hour God help any hapless train
met or overtaken; help the city, but full four
teen miles below, for that distance will be de-
voured in fifteen minutes
Harness me down with your iron bands!
Be sure of your curb and rein
For scorn the strength ofyour puny hands,
As the tempest scorns the chain.
7" The escaped engine came howling by
Plainville, visible for an instant to the appalled,
villagers, switched off into the double track as
lightning from one steel rod to another diver
gent, and Numbered on to the city whose spires
might now have been seen from the iron disc
Of this fiery comet; but there was none to see,
for rider, or driver, or living human soul had
the engine none. On, straight on, the city, the
city
HAPPY the furnace door few open, the
draught ceased, and little way above the up
per engine-house, on a heavy upgrade, the lo-
comotive's breath was spent; it came to a dead
stand, and stood there silent and cold, forming
as much part Of the still wintry landscape as
the whitened rock and shrouded trees on the
hillside above"

A Rogue In Petticoais.

A female. formerly in the employ Of the
Winslow House, has recently been detected in
stealing number of articles from various indi-
viduals, amounting in all to sum not less than
$500.
1t appears that when Mr.. Ward took posses-
sion of the House (Which is only d few weeks
since) this female asked permission to remain
a few days, until she could make arrangements
to leave. Consent to remain was given in
the meantime. Mr.. Wards suspicious were
aroused that all was not right. and on the lady
signifying her intention to remove her trunks.
he (Mr. Ward) politely requested her to open
said trunks and allow him the privilege of ex-
aiming their contents. The light fingered fe-
male could do no less than comply with the re-
quest. seeing that she as caught. and from the
trunks were taken table cloths, counterpanes,
bed quilts, knives and forks. silver spoons. &c,
&C., belonging to the Winslow House. This
fact on being known. induced several neigh
bors to visit the trunks. where they recognize
ed articles belonging TO them, such as shawls,
handkerchicis. &c. mich had been missing for
some time. Mr.. Ward Immediately placed the
thief under lock and key, but on Monday eve.
ming she succeeded in making her escape, ia.
king with her the principal part of the uncalled
Tor stolen goods, and is proJa ly now on her
way to Galcna.
1t is sad at any time to record the weakness
of human nature, but more particularly SO
when female is the actress but those who
tranSrcss must not complain of the punish
ment which will inevitably follow them

WINsTOw' S MIL.--This St. Paul mill which
has so long stood idle. is about to be SGT into
useful and practical operation. The property
has been purchased by Hon. Vim. II. Mobiles
late of Shakopee. who will proceed forthwith
to have it repaired and modelled, SO that il
will be ready for grinding all kinds of grain by
the first of February next. Mr.. Carrigan. an
experienced mill-wright and practical miller
has been employed to make the necessary a.
tcrations in order that the mill may be prac-
teal and profitable "mashecr" which it never
yet has been. The entire creek Trout Brook
is to be diverted from its natural course some
distance above the MILL and thrown upon an
overshot wheel, atfording fall of eighteen
or twenty feet, with water sufficient to drive
four run of stones. The expense of building
and keeping up a dam is thus entirely avoid
cd, while the whole Of the water-power is rem.
dered available. We hope Mr. Mobiles, in thus
becoming public beneiactor by devotng hi s
means and labor to the reduction of the price
of breadstuffs in Minnesota. will realize tho
full reward Of bis energies, pecuuiarily.
