A Brave Girl.

ling. The story is this. and the
name Of Louisa Hudgins deserves a
place on the page Of history beside
that Of the noble maid Of the Eddy
Lighthouse:
ut appears that a few days ago,
while the weather was quite cold
and the wind blowing quite a gale,
small sail boat was seen approach
ing the Matthews shore. When
about one hundred yards off, a squall
of wind capsized the Trail bark, and
one Of the men was thrown headlong
into the angry billows. This acci,
dent was witnessed by little Louisa
Hudgius, who was at that moment
watching the approaching boat from
her fathers window, when she saw
the struggling form /of q man IN the
water.
She rushed hastily from the house
to the shore; divested herself of her
shoes and hose, and waded out to a
canoe which was secured to O stake
q short distance from the Shore -
This she hastily padded to the relief
OF the drowning man, and reached
him in time to save his life. She
then, with the assistance Of the other
man, succeeded IN getting him into
her boat, and padded him safely to
the shore. We understand that
when she reached the shore and
fonnd herself sans bonnet, sans shoes
and sans Stockings, her maidenly
modesty. which had been overcome
by her heroism, returned, and che
scarletto to find herself in
this predicament before two men,
Blu. che had no need to be ashamed;
the deed was noble one (!) worthy
of a Spartan mother () and we take
great pleasure in chronicling it.

them in flames. Their screams
awoke the husband, who, with the
help Of his neighbors, succeeded in
ex inguishing it, but not until all

The youngest child, Bernard, was
horribly burned about the face, and
died at four o'clock this morning. -
The second child was badly burned
in the eyes, and was in commissions
this morning, while we were pres,

burned in the face and upon the

recover. The gra dmother is the
least burned, bu. she suffers much
pain, and is confined to her bed.

portant one, its proceedings will be
sought after with considerable ca

The Colored Lecturer.

Mr. j. M. Langston, the colored
speaker, from Oberlin, gave an ad-
dress, in Findlay, on Tuesday eve-
ming lsst. However much his white
brethren may differ with him in his
position as to the rights he claims
for his much abused race, all who
beard bis speech, will, we have no
doubt, concede that he proved him
self man of superior abilities, in
the mastery manner in which ne
handled his subject. The strict at.
tention given, by the large audience
in attendance, made mp of members
of both parties, and the good order
observed, showed that our citizens
can appreciate good talents and
honest purposes in an humble Afric-
an, notwithstanding he may ad-
vance views not exactly in harmony
with their own. Mr. Langston, in
face OF the all the multiplied diff.
culties and discouragements that be
set bis despised race, has not only
secured a finished education, but has
prosecuted the study of law, until he
has acquired quite prominent posi-
ton in that profession. As an orator,
in purity Of diction and in force and
tersness OF style, he will compare
very favorsbly with our best public
speakers. lie seems to have given
very careful attention to articulation,
as his utterance is very clear, and
his pronunciation almost faultless.
