BOYS OFT AT NIGHT

mischievous habits possible, Nothing SO
speedily and surely marks their dow inward
course:
. 1t is ruinous to their morals in all instan-

night an unhealthy state of mind, bad, vul-

riotous bearing Indeed, it is in the street,
after nightfall, that the boys principally ac-
quire the education of the bad and capaci-

A Battle iuc.seni.

At The battle of the Thames, laughabl.
incident occurred, which Is thus related by
one who was IN the engagements
The british General had formed bis men
in open order. with their cannon pointing
down the road, by which the Americana
were advancing, Gen. Harrison immedi-
ately took advantage Of this, and ordered
Col. Johnson, mounted regiment TO charge
at speed by heads of companies $50 as t,
expose the least possible 'front.' pass through
the open intervals, and form in the rear OF The
British forces. This movement was bril-
liantly executed BY the battalion under the
command of Lieut. Col james johnson, his
brother, Col. L. NJ. Johnson at the same
tune charging the Indians with the other
battalion,
1t happened that in one of the compan-
les under James Johuson's command, there
was huge, brawny fellow, named Lamb
be weighed about 24S lbs, was brave
man. and as good hundred as biz. brave
men proverbially ar. Lamb had broken
down his Kentucky horse by his great
weight, and was mounted instead upon a
short. stout, wild Canadian pony; fiom
whose sides his long limbs depended almost
to the ground, while his bulky frame rose
high above the beast-looking not unlike
an overgfown boy astride Of a rough sheep
When the charge was made, lambs pony
took fright, and broke into a run. Lamb
pulled until the bit broke in the animals
mouth, and all command Of him was lost
The little pony stretched himself to the work
dashed out OF the tanks, soon outstripped
all the file leaders aud pushed on in adrance
of the company. Lamb was no longer mas
ter of his horse or himself, and he was in q
quandary If he rolled off he would be
tramplcd to death by his friends, if the horse
rushed upon the British lines with him, so
far ahead of the rest, he must be killed -
Either way death seemed inevitable; and,
to use his expression, he thought he'd jist
say something they could tell his friends in
Kentucky, when they went home
lie stuck both heels into the pony's TANKS
and urged him to his utmost speed On they
drove, some fifty yards in front of the lead
ing file, Lambs gigantic person swsying
from side to side, and the legs swinging in
a most portentous fashion--the little Cana
dian pulling foot all he knew how, his tail
straight, his nostrils distonded, his ears
pinned back, and his shaggy eyes flashing
from under their shaggy forotop, with all
the spite and spleen of born devil. Just
as he got within a stride or two of the Brit
ish, Lamb hourshed his rifle and roared out
in voice of thunder; Clear the way, Cd
d--n you. for I'm comingD
To his surprise the lines opened right and
left, and he passed through unhurt Sc
great was their establishment, at the strange
apparition If such rider, and such horse
moving upon them with such furious veloci.
ty, that they opened mechanically at his word
Of command, and let him pass. SO soon as
he gained the rear Of their position, Lamf
rolled of on the grass. and suffered his po-
ny To 60 his own road. A few minutes moro,
and he was with his comrades securing the
prisoners.

Ranaiag Raiiroads at Htgh Rate Of
Speed, liza portion OF the public desire to
ride at a high rate of speed they should be
willing to pay literally for tie opportunity
1t is ia the experience Of every railroad
man that the cost of working road at a
high speed increases in aeceleratng ratio
\ train running forty miles per hour costs
at least four times as much as a train run
ming twenty miles per hour. The wear and
tear of the rails and machinery at high
speed is tremendous. One express passen-
GER train will DO more damage to the road
and equipase than ten heavy freight trains
at the low speed usually adopted Here.

A certain individual Of this city, Ono mat
ter who) being of the opinion that the
Fourth of July was likely to prove void of
any excitement, or public interest and
wishing to change such an aspect of affairs,
circulated through tie city poster, stating
that Prof. Culex, would perform the won
derful feat of Walking on tAe Water the
performance to take place on the Potomac
river, in trout Of the eanol locks at 10
o'clock a. NJ. Sight free to al Sc. Long
before the appointed time, hundreds Of pee-
pie of all ages and Of both sexes could be
seen vending their way towards the river,
and at the hour Of 10, It is estimated that
there were between and 5000 persons
present to witness the JsoonderfM perfo,'-
nance, besides which every window and
bill that commanded a view Of The river was
occupied. Prof. Culex was in everybody 5
mind, he seemed TO be the sole subject Of in
terest. AS the time appointed passed, and
IL o'clock drew near, and still no Prof Gu
lex was to be seen, the people became i'm
patient, about this time it was whispered
around that Culex was the Latin word for
n,usqaito, when the truth flashed upon their
minds that they had all been "sold" They
seemed to take it however in good humor,
and, although some faces, wore an air Of
disappointment, still the majority enjoyed
the joke, and heartily laughed over the cir
cumstance. -Cumberlaad CtciH;an,
