Vs. We are in receipt Of q communi-
cation from Reverend A. G.. Coflman,
City Missionary, requesting us to say
that his failure to meet an appointment
to deliver temperance lecture on last
Thursday evening, at the Presbyterian
Chapel, notice of which was given in the
Dan Book, is not to be attributed to any
unwillingness on his part to engage faith
fully in the good work. He remarks that
he has held himself ready, for the last
eighteen years, to assist in the promotion
of any moral enterprise and especially OF
this. :, He offers to meet the people at the
chapel, on next Thursday night.

FATAL RAILROAD ACCIDENT.-On last
Thursday evening, as the passenger train
on the South-Side Road, was starting from
the station at Robertson's Mills, a few
miles below Lynchburg, Waterman by
the name of East, residing in that vicini-
ty, was thrown from his position on the
platform of the last car, by the motion of
the train, and fell upon the track. The
train was stopped as soon as it was known
that he had fallen, when it was ascer-
tanned that both feet had been cut off and
that he was otherwise shockingly multi
ated. He died in a few hours. His wife,
who was on the train, was the first to
reach him, and her agony is stated to
have touched the feelings Of all present.

city and reliable judgment, may not be
without interest to our patrons, AS indica-
ting that enterprise and capital from

likely to flow hither than westward,
when the commanding natural advanta-
ges of Norfolk are generally and ade-
quately understood.
'Now that William Ballard Preston's
mission to Europe has succeeded so ad-
nirably, Norfolk cannot help becoming a
thriving and important seaport. Eren
if the prediction of Thomas Jefferson is
not to be fulfilled at once, that Norfolk
would eventually surpass New York,
there can be no doubt that, under the
present auspices, she looks likely to at
tain to something more than she has
hitherto enjoyed of the commercial con-
sequence for which nature has destined
her as the great Central harbor of the
Atlantic Coast Of the United States.

Observation-Disclosures Rosa Grey.

Our readers will remember the adyer-
tisement of Miss Rosa Grey, which APP
peared in the Day Book some time since.
Well, we have not since had the good
fortune to learn what success has attend
ed the efforts of this charming lady in
matrimonial affairs, though we confess a
considerable curiosity in the matter-for
our readers sake, mostly.
Mr.. "John Stuart, Commission Mer-
chant, and dealer in new and old iron,

Broadway, New York, "-(Miss Rosa, we
have given you his full address as ap-
pears on the face of the card of his en-
velope,) Wishes the Day Book to tell
Miss Rosa Grey, that he, John Stuart,
Commission Merchant, &C., sis yet I'M
married, and will be glad to exchange a
likeness WIN her With the view of mar
rlage."
There, John, we have delivered your
message for you, and shall not charge you
a cent, even if you get the fair Rosa and
all of her quiUs, to boot. But, John
the Day Book fears you are little toe
late, as times are "awful tight " in this
part of the world just now, and Miss
Rosa says she is well to do in worldly
matters, we expect some of our "youns
bloods have stepped in before you
John. However, there's nothing like
trying.
John, you Northerners are great on a
speculation, whethermatrimonal or other.

"soool and iuo,y," please tell, how would
you manage, in case Miss Rosa's fortune
should be composed of woody heads,,'
altogether. Ha? John.
A wicked wag at our elbow suggests,
that we send one of our g fool-killers on
to No. 1876 Broadway, New York; but
we wont do tit would be a pity to de-
stroy such fine specimen.
