A RACE FOR Two HUNDRED AND SEVEN
TY-FIvE THOUSAND DOLLARS The Cleve-
land Leader vouches for the truth of the fol-
lowing =
Zone day last week, as the eastward bound
express train reached Laporte, Ind, a passen-
ger stepped off while the engine was being re-
plenished with wood and water, and walked
back and forth on the platform, and continued
to walk until the whistle sounded. The other
passengers got on board and the train passed
off, but the gentleman still walked on. A few
minutes after the train had gone, a station
man saw the pedestrian, and going up to him.
asked, in surprised tone =
what the deuce are you doing here 2
The man started, opened his eyes, and look
ed around bewildered. The fact was, he had
been fatigued, and dropped asleep while walk
ing .Rousing himself, he asked :
why Where am I!'
Where are you? AT Laporte
Where's the train came on?'
That left ten minutes ago.
Ten minutes ago, and left me /! / must 20
on that train. 1t is question of life and death
with me. Can you get me to it Have you
got an engine here? Where is the Superin-
tendent 2
| The section master had an office near by.
and the two went to find that official and to
procure an engine. The traveller stated his
case-he must go on-coud not delay-and
offered the officer $3.50 if he would put him
on board the train. This strange demand
and strange offer caused the station mas
ter to hasten, and do what he could.
The fire was not yet OUT in the engine
that had drawn the train to that point
the bargain was settled-a draft given on New
| York for $3.50, and in ten minutes the traveller
started, with an engine to overtake the flying
express. After rushing on for thirty or forty
miles. some connection gave way about the
engine. The engine was stopped-the engi-
neer found the difficulty, and in very few
minutes had wooden pin whitfield out and fit
ted to supply the deficiency. With this on
they flew. The train had of course many
miles the start of them, and despite the wooden
pin the engineer crowded on steam and tore
through the country at fearful rate. Thirty
miles of the distance was run in q minutes,
but the engagement was that they should
overtake the train, and do it they did, but not
until more than one hundred miles had been
run, and they were approaching Toledo. Hay.
ing at length overtaken and stopped the train,
and hurried on board, the traveller went ea-
gerly to berth in the sleeping-car, and took
therefrom carpet-bag containing 1915, 900.
Ills treasure was safe-n0ne had molested it,
and, dismssing his faithful courier, he went on
his way rejoicing at the success of his perilous
and exciting adventure"

ANTI-SLAvERY MEETING.-The meetings of
the abolitionists, yesterday, were conducted
with considerable spirit. The speakers were
Messrs. Pillsbury, Foster, Higginson, and 9TH
ers. Mr.. Higginson took occasion to refute
the assumption of the other speakers, that the
anti-sIavery cause had declined in this or other
States, referring to the satisfactory personal
liberty bills whichhad nearly been enacted in
Massachusetts and New York, and to other
facts in the history of our legislation.
1t was stated, in the report of the anniversa-
ry of the Church Anti-Slavery Society, in
Boston, that the meetings of that body were
alone in their expressions of sympathy with
the citizens of Ohio who are now in Jail for
rescuing slave The American Anti-Slavery
Society also passed similar resolutions, which
were not Intentionally overlooked in the re-
port. The circumstance, we understand, was
alluded to last evening, as part of the "sys-
TEN of misrepresentation" which abolitionists
had to endure. The charge, of course, is not
warranted by the facts.

THE PANoRAMA.-Ball's mammoth Pictorial
Tour from Africa to Canada, now on exhibit
ton, is the largest panorama ever exhibited in
America. The artist has illustrated the "pe-
culiar institution" American slavery, with eff
feet, and undoubtedly with truth, for he
sketches the scenes from life. The firemen
and the City Government have been invited to
attend tonight. Aside from the attractions of
the exhibition, there will be a new feature this
evening. There is to be presentation to the
Chief Engineer of the Fire Department.

SAD AcoIDENT.-On Wednesday morning
of last week, the son of Mr.. Jonathan Luther,
about twelve years of age, was seriously
wounded, while engaged in splitting wood. He
was using his new Ratchet for the first time,
with good deal of childish enthusiasm, when
the stick flew from its place, and he received
the whole force of the blow upon his knee,
causing wound which it was feared would
deprive him wholly or partially of the use of
tho limb

VERMONT GOLD DIGGINGs.-The Ply
mouth gold dggings are looking up. On
Tuesday a nugget weighing about So, and two
smaller ones weighing from 81 to So each were
found. Sluices are being erected along the
streams, at intervals, for the distance Of about
four miles, and many are engaged in opening
raceways, turning streams and building dams,
and the sight Of the precious ore has nearly set
all Windsor county crazy.

% On Saturday last, an Irish woman, liv-
ing at the corner of Thomas and Union streets,
in this city, visited the police office with
complaint against the son of respectable citi-
zen of Northboro, charging him with attempt
ing to commit rape when he came to collect
his rents. Her statements, though strong
enough, were not altogether consistent, and
did not seem to be sufficient to warrant the ar
rest of the accused. The subject, however,
became matter of street conversation, and the
charges were by some hastily assumed to be
true, while others surmised that the poor wo-
man had been betrayed by her Imagination.
In the absence of legal investigation names are
withheld.

The Western slope of the Blue Ridge in
Virginia, is now covered with millions Of To-
Gusts. They appeared first near the top of the
mountain, about two weeks ago, and seem to
be moving in westerly direction. DR.. Smith
of Baltimore, predicted the appearance of
these insects in that quarter during this month.

A remarkable phenomenon at sea is report.
ed by Captain Rogers, of the barque Rolla,
from Galveston. On the 4th ult., in the Gulf
OF Mexico, the vessel passed through thick
scum on the surface Of the water which ex-
tended as far as the eye could see from N. w.
10 D. II. The subtance resembled coa-tar, and
gave out smell peculiar to that article. The
ocean gave off steam, us if some hot substance
had been poured into it. The phenomenon
was attributed TO volcanic eruption at the
bottom Of the Gulf Immediately afterwards
the vessel experienced a violent hurricane.
