We understand that il is in coniempla-
ton by those owning this road to tear up
the track on Spruce street, and extend the

The road as at present does Lot pay, and it

Which told imperial Charlemagne
How swsrthy sons Of Paynim Spain,
Had wToughE his champions fall
Those Paladins with brave Ro-
land in the sepulchral pass of
Roncesvalles, never felt more mar
tlal fire than was that which stir
red the blood of those brave Ken
tuekians, yet the bugle was silent.
The slow movements of Longstreet
seemed to be made almost with a
purpose, as it delayed the charge
until doubt and uncertainty, and
worse than death was seen in our
faces.
At last, as the twilight was set
ting in the misty atmosphere and
the air was CHASTITY and ghostly
with weird fitting shadows, when
that moment of the evening had
come wherein certain indefinable
musings fill our minds with subtle
feelings of uncertainty and dis
trust, that are almost akin to doubt
and fear, Preston dashed to the
head of the line and shouted the
battle charge. The Kentuckians
| dashed forward with their elan and
invincible courage, but storm of
missiles came cutting through them
like the sharp edges of discharged
hail. The line hesitated, and in
another instant it fell on the
ground. Yet the storm of shot
rained its deadly fire from the bat
terry lines on the hill. Preston
again calamity attempted the
charge, and ordered an assault.
But a look up that steep hill and
into not only the shadow but the
deep and dismal valley of death
which yawned along those rocky
seams, and were lighted by the red
and sulphurous glare that cleaned
from the mouths of hoarse-throated
and believing guns, was sufficient
to keep US from attempting the
terrible ascent.
| Along the entire line it was evil
dent that the soldiers in gray were
storming the last strongholds of
the enemy. At this exciting mo
ment Gen. Beeckinridge appeared
on the scene. He was riding a
magnificent gray horse, whose every
movement was the very interpreta-
| ton of flexible grace and mobile
elasticity. Seated firmly in his
saddle, and looking like splendid
knight Of the age of chivalry, he
drew his sword and as its gleam-
ing blade flashed in the undulsting
twilight, he was recognized by the
division, which had often followed
his huge form and nodding plum e
into the thickest of victorious bat
tie, A shout rang out on the even

ROMANCE IN REAL L1FE.-The record of
an inquest held very lately in London reads
more like the summary Of the plot which
some sensational novelist had worked out
than real life. The body which caused the
inquiry was that Of young woman. The
tale told was something as follows She,
when very much younger, had loved a
Frenchman, and was engaged to be mar
ried to him; but from some cause or other,
which did not come out. in evidence, the
marriage never took place, and the girl be-
came the wife Of another man. The French
man disappears for time from the story !;
the married life of the heroine is happy, and
for eight years she forgsts--or atleast never
mentions-her former lover. At the end Of
that time, however, the two fall together
again in public house. The Frenchman is
talking with another woman, but he leaves
her for his " cid fismes' She becomes much
agitated when she discovers who he is, and

An item of not little interest ct the
present time, as showing the progressive
Improvement of our railroads, is that the
directors Of the Petersburg road have just
declared a dividend of three per cent. cut
of the earnings of last year. Before the
war this was perhaps the most prosperous
road in the State, il not in the South, and
the stock sold at high premium. During
the military operations around the city
it Was well nigh destroyed; and so great
has been the expense of restoration that
with the exception Of q dividend of one and
half per cent. q year ago, this is the only
one that has been declared since the war.
This, however, does not show the full
amountof the net profit on last years ope-
rations; for on the whole capital stock it
is ascertained to be six and seven-eighths
: per cent. The road is now in excellent
order and Is doing prosperous business,
lnasmuch that hereafter it is expected
DIVIDEND OF three per cent. viii be declared
every SIX months. gather these particu,
lars from PRESIDENT Collier, who also in.
forms me that the gross receipts during the
past year were S2l7 900, and that the ex-
penses we're $4,000; which would show
the net earnings to be upwards Of $50. 00O.
The above dividend is payable at the
