ESCAPE OF SEVENTY TWO Boys FROM A House
OF REFuGE.-We copy the following from the
New Orleans True Delta of the 10Th inst:
Hevia street was in conmotion Yesterday eve
ming, owing to a stampede among the boys in the
House of Refuge, seventy two of whom boted at
one dash, making bee line for the woods. The
plan of their escape well laid and need not
be attributed to any want of vigilance on the part
of the officers, most of whom on duty at the
tiine. In the rear ofthe cesspool is gate, which
is completely masked by it.
While majority of the boys up stairs
going through their religious exercises under
the instructions of the Rev. Mr.. Brown the Sc.
cretary of the Board, few of the old hands, and
most incorrigbie vagabonds, secreted themselves
from the officers, and managed to cut away the bar
that secured the gate This being accomplish
ed the boys. ut signal from their fugeman,
made rush for the opening, and as already re-
marked, seventy-two succeeded in making their
escape before the stampede could be arrested.
This stampede may shock the questionable phil
anthropy of some of the fathers of the "Refuge,"
but it will be great saving to the city treasury
inits present rickety state.

VIRGINIA AND TFNN. RAiLRoAp.-At Wythe-
vile, a few DAYS since. we were invited to accom-
pany the Directors in excursion to the new
terminus Of the Virginia and Tennessee railroad
fifteen miles beyond that place. The rshicte in
which the Directors and their companions for the
voyage were seated in styled gondola as we
learned from Capt. BUFeRD, the efficient Superin-
iendeni and Engineer of the process of track lay

We found the new portion Of the road admira.
bly, constructed. 1t terminated At present in
very deep cut through the crest of very consd
orabl elevation which divides the waters of New
river und the IIolston. near the hamlet of Mount
Airy. in Smythe country. Fifteen miles being
thus deducted from the distance to the Tennessee
line, there remains near fifty mites to complete
the road TO that point. The embankment, how
ever. for nearly that entire distance is complete
and the superstructure only is wanting. The
work is going ahead, brayely and will, trust.
before many months be completed From the
President down. il has most able and energetic
corps of officers and they doing all in their
power TO complete the road at the earliest posi-
bile day. But one thing has delayed 1.-THE rant
Of money Through the untiring exertions Of
the President, the work has been kept going
sometimes with greater and sometimes les
ser force; and money or no money, we believe he
will have the great work finished before very
long. Indeed we begin to think he has learned
how to bnld railroads trithout money
The company do not expect to run their pas

their freight trains and possibly there will be
very little active business on tho line until 1t
reaches Seven Mile Ford, some fourteen ff-
teen miles further. There the very rich valley
Of the IIolston is tapped-and there will be a
point of accumulation of considerable business
for the road. At present very little travel is at
tracted from beyond Abingdon; but as the line
progresses towards the Tennessee boundary the
travel increases, and when it reaches that point
the great majority of travellers from East Tennes-
will be drawn upon it, adding largely to the
revenues of the great improvement r. Dis

ton. There remained only the belief in q God;
and now the Church of Rome has blotted out
that last truth by decree which is tantamount
to proclaiming the deity of Mary, and which
fixes her in the feelings and beliefs of the mem
bers of that church, as the supreme and only
God. However divergent their courses, and di-
verse their forms, all error has common point
of meeting; and thus the infdelity of Voltaire,
and the superstition of the Popes, have found
ut length their common eliminating point in

That MADMAN.-A gentleman and his wife
one Sabbath morning, going to church, in Glas-
gov, Scotland, met friend, who spoke to them
and inquired where they were going. They
said, to hear DR.. Chalmers. He said, What !!
to hear that madman! They replied, if he
would agree to go with them and hear DR.. Chal-
mers, for once, and if, after that. he persisted
in talking in such manner of him, they would
never dispute the matter with him again. He
accompanied them, and, singular to relate, it
happened that when DR.. Chalmers entered the
pulpit that day, he gave out the text, g. am
not mad. most noble Festus, but speak forth the
words Of truth and soberness - and the gentle
man, who. rather think, was medical man,
became from that day changed man, and a
convert to evangelical Christianity. had often
heard this story without being able to authen-
ticate it, till, on happening to mention it to my
friend DR.. Webb, he told me he knew it to b.
perfectly authentic, and he knew who tho party
was. was delighted with the confirmation 0
the story, as think it one of the most interest
ing anecdotes in modern biography.-John An

TaE EIMAAcULATE CoNCEPTIoN.-The Edinburgh
Witness of which Hugh Mllhr is the leading
editor, moralizes thus upon the late decree Of
Rome
"We do not say that this decree formally en-
acts that there is no God ; but we maintain that
its effect is to oblterate God from the minds and
beliefs of the people of the Roman Church.
The decree bids them not to pray to God, nor to
look for any blessing from God, nor to cherish
any love to God, nor even think of God. 1t is,
we strongly suspect, the filling up of the cup,
for it is the last truth of the Bible lett standing
not blotted out. 1t is not the manner of that
church to deny truth in the way of leaving its
place blank, but to deny it in the way of dis
placing it by the anti-podal error. In this way
she has gone the whole round of revelation, ex-
tinguishing one light after another and now
all is dark--darkness that may be felt. She de.
MED the atonement by substituting the sacrifice
of the mass she denied the existence and agen.
cy of the Spirit by substituting the sacrament
she denied Holy Scripture by substituting iradi

SHALL Pray TO CHANCE Am English lady,
who had forsaken her God aud the Bible for the
gloom and darkness of infdelty, was crossing
the Atlantic, asked a pious sailor one morning
how long they should BE out.
In fourteen days, if it is Gods will, we shall
be in Liverpool answered the sailor.
IF ii is Gods will !! said the lady, what a
senseless expression don't you know that all
comes by chance!'
In few days terrible storm arose, and the
lady stood clinging to the side of the cabin door
in an agony of terror, when the sailor passed
her.
What do you think, said she, will the
storm soon he overt
1t seems likely to last for some time, mad
am.'
o. she cried, pray that we may not be
lost
His only and calm reply was, Shall pray
to chance Am. Messenger.

THE PAST. Z


BY WILLIAM WRIT JOHNSTON.
i lift the curtain Of the Past,
And In It's sliadowy depths descry
Full many Joy too sweet to last,
And scene Of youthful gaiety.
Andstherc, with msiaory's kindiyaid,
Is pictured many beauteous form,
With such fidelity portrayed,
Each lineameut with life seems warm.
And high resolves still unperformed,
And lofty aims yet unattained,
And bright deusiye hopes that warmed
My breast as erst they waxed and waned;
Among that phantom-throng they sit,
Or spectre-likc, with mockng mien.
Deride me as they swiftly fit,
Exulting, past the gloomy scene.
Oh, Time reverse awhile thy fight,
And on thy light and tireless wing,
Watt back to me that pure delight
The hacyon days of yore would bring
.'An idle wish vain regret !"
voice with gentle tone replies:
Heed well the Past, but not forget
The Future still before thee lies"
