as spotless as virgins heart, and the

"buzzum." Remarking that this room
was delightful place to live, one OF

but goodly supply of edibles.

control twenty four prisoners-four lu-
natics, eight State prisoners, four coun-
ty prisoners, and eight from the city.

Wales, and all the assembly Of lords in

Fawkes was discovered in a cellar be-
meath the house. The legend was that
he endeavored 70 fire the powder, hut

Sale of the Steubenv lille Rnilroad.
The Pittsburgh Dispatch of yesterda.

The Pittsburgh Dispatch of yesterday
says:
We understand that there is likely to
be hitch in the programme marked
out for the sale of the Steubenville road,
and it is barely ON the cards now that
the Pennsylvania Central may have to
loose its hold on the enterprise or pay
dearly for its possession. The sale is to
take place on the 9th, and So, 900 of the
purchase money is to be paid down, the
balance to be paid in twenty days.
Though kept rather quiet, the charac-
ter of the proceedings, and the object
they were intended to accomplish be-
came known to capitalists in Baltimore
and New York, and negotiations are
now on foot through which the Penn
sylvania Central may find more than
one bidder in the field against it ON the
sixth. We are not at liberty to state
the particulars now. but the public may
rest assured that if the Pennsylvania
road becomes the purchaser, it will only
be by arranging with certain creditors
who are not disposed 10 allow their
claims to be swallowed up by this
mammoth corporation.
