A NEGRO RUNS AWAY WITH WHITE GIRL rs
MroHreAY.--A case transpired yesterday morn
ing which rivals in its prominent features the
notorious Judson clopement affair, and promi-
SEES, like that, to afford some beautiful illustra-
tions Of the workings of practical Abolition
ism. A runaway pair, consisting of big me-
gro, as black as tar, and white girl about
seventeen years old, crossed the riveron the first
ferry boat, and took lodgings in Windsor, with
the intention of proceeding UPWARDS to that
paradise of amalgamationism, Chatham, where
they intended to locate. The girl was nm intel
ligent-appearing female, and refused to reveal
her name, but stated to several persons that
she was the daughter Of farmer living some
where in Wayne county. She said that the
negro whose name is Smith, had worked on
her fathers farm for some time, and that she
had left home at his persuasion, having been
induced to return the tender passon(D (Which
he professed for her. A gentleman who was
crossing on the same boat and who appeared
to be a traveller, questioned her in regard TO
the matter, and took great interest in her
welfare. He endeayored to persuade her to
leave the negro and return home, and offered
to give her money to pay her expenses if she
would do so. She declined the offer, but seemed
to regret the step she had taxed. She stated
that her father was an abolitionist of the I'M
adulterated stripe, and that her intimacy with
teachings, which held that an ignorant African
was rs good as n white man, if not better, and
at any and all times fit companion for his
children, and u proper person to fill a seat at
his table. There are no means of knowing
that her statements are strictly true, although
there is no reason to doubt them. If they are
true, her relatives will soon be in pursuit of
her, and if they are not, the fact remains that
the relations of the parties exist as we have

FEAT OF A RAILROAD EMpLoyEE.-A recent
achievement of brakeman on the Michigan
Central Railroad exhibits degree of skill and
presence of mind that renders it well worthy
of record. Last Thursday night, when the
passenger train coming eastward was between
Chelsea and Dexter, a broken rail was encoun-
tered, throwing, we believe, one car from the
track A freight train was known TO be COM
ing on behind and INSTRUMENTATION linus,
II young man, who makes his home ut Ann
Arbor-retrqced the track halfa mile, equipped
with AIRED lantern, the signal ofdanger When
the train doomed in sight, the red light was
waved in the usual manner, but there was no
movement on the part of the engineer to indl-
cate that he had discerned the signal. 1t be-
came obvious to linus that the difficulty lay in
the steam having become CONCEALED on the
window to such an extent as to obstruct the
engineers vision, and having no torpedoes to
place on the track--an appliance sometimes
resorted to-he was left entirely to his own re-
sources. Taking his position as near to the
track as was consistent with safety, as the ma
chine came laundering along, with wcll-direct-
ed aim he hurled his lantern into the window,
shattering it as well as the lantern, into small
fragments, some of which struck the engineer,
who, seeing and ''making note Of the red
pieces, of course reversed the engine in time to
avoid serious accident.-Detrot Tribune

One day last week Duncan B. Brown stole a
goose, ut Brockport, N. Y, was convicted, and
sentenced to the pcnitcntiary for thirty days.
The Orleans Republican, which appears to be
posted in the history of this man, says that
Fifteen years ago he was reporter on one OF
the Buffalo daiies, of which his brother was
an editor. Under Fillmores Administration
the brother was made consul to Tangier, and
about the same time Duncans fun had degen-

Since then he has led the lifeincident TO tramp

stock of practical information had made him
many friends, who would have been glad to
