THE ESCAPE OF YERGER.-The Cincinnati
Commercial has the following particulars of
Col. Yerger's escape from the Jail in jackson,
Miss: Yerger made his escape from the Jail at
early daybreak, by climbing the board fence
which surrounds the prison yard. The first two
nights, after being handed over to the civil au-
thOrties, Yerger was confined in one of the iron
cages. Since then he has had more comfortable
quarters in room without fastening on either
window or door, and given free access to 1the
yard, by day and night. A little before five this
morning he sent the jailOr for cup Of COTE to
the adjoining market house, and during his alb
shnoe Yerger availed himself of a convenient
empty barrel and box and by their aid reached
the top OF the thirteen-foot fence. He took the
jailor's revolver with him ON his escape. Yer
ger made direct for the clearinghouse of Mrs.
Buck, and, abruptly entering the bedroom Of
Lieutenant Appleton, inquired if that was Col.
Hamiltons room. He was told that the gentle
man roomed Immediately below. Col. Hami-
ton was the former newspaper partner of Yer
ger, and the same person who was supposed to
be implicated in Yerger's escape from military
confinement. In the faint light OF the morning
Lieut.. Appleton failed to recognize his early
visitor. Squads of military, on the requisition
of Governor Alcern, have been in search of
Yerger, but up to Saturday night without sue
cess. The remissness Of Sheriff Lake inspermit-
ting the escape is very generally censured.

AFFAIRS IN LoUDoN COUNTY, VA.-The Lees

likewise be adapted for the ordinary trade

This road is to be a part Of 4 vell-devised, but
not yet developed through connection with the

build this through connection, or what their

be beneficial to LOudoun, at least. We there

friends of this new route may be fully and speed

THE MISSING STEAMERs.-The journals are
all indulging in speculations to the fate of the
City Of Boston. The New York Herald has not
yet abandoned all hope, and thinks that, as our
latest news from the Azores is OF the 10Th Feb
ruary, she may since that time have drifted in
there. "With eight or ten days later intelli-
gence from Fayal," II says, "if We hear nothing
OF her, we shall be thrown upon the painful con-
clusion that-crushed. perhaps, among icebergs,
or suddenly fOundered in q heavy storm-she
has gone down, like the President, the Pacific
the City OF Glasgow, and the Tempest, leaving
not soul or q vestge afioat to tell the point on
the sea or the nature Of her disaster. But still
We hold to the chance of the Azores Islands"
AS regards the Samaria, now eighteen DAYS
out from Queenstown, IL is thought she has
suffered othing worse than the Smidt, and We
may expect report at any moment of her APP
pearance at the Hook. In real stormy, wintry
weather, the passing winter seems to have been
crowded into the month Of March; and so the
iehg.hening or steamers passage six, eight or

RECIPROCITY IN CANADA.-Tn the Canadian
House Of Commons Wednesday night, Mr.. Hunt
ingtOn made a speech in favor of a customs
union with the United States, contendng that
that was the only way to keep the population at
home and promote the prosperity OF the country.
He admitted that the British empire could not be
kept together with differential duty against
British goods. Sir Francis Kinks responded,
contending that Canada was immensely pros
porous, and that Mr.. HuEtington's argume mt
was SANDER. He stated that the shutting out of
British manufactures, which are the cheapest
in the world, by the high tariff of the United
States, which We should have to adopt i'm order
to carry out Mr.. Huntingtons proposition.
would impose crushing burden on the Cana
dams. Hon. NJ. Darien said reciprocity was
necessary to the prosperity of the country. Peo-
pie were leaving the country, and the sentimen INT
of the country should be in favor OF obtaining
commercial relations with the United States
which should strengthen trade. Sir George T..
Cartier replied to Mr. Huntington at length.

ROMANTIC MARRIAGE AND DIvoRCE.-The
Chicago Post says The demoralizing effects of
disreputable company, and the degradation sure
to follow those who frequent the haunts of vice
and crime, are exemplified in the course OF the
now notorious and despised John Dowd, whose
anne has become familiar through police
annals. The latest phase i'm this mans life has
eked out in the shape Of q divorce bill, filed by
his wife, who alleges extreme cruelty, non-sup-
port, and desertiOn as causes for separation.
There is little bit of romance in Dowd's
history. He halls from Philadelphia, where he
carried on lucrative business, having been the
owner OF several vessels on the river and canal,
and having ample means at his command. Six
years ago he fell in with Missouri Russell, A
Young lady belonging to one of the first families
in the Quaker City. She was a handsome girl
OF about eighteen years, and became SO infatua-
ted with Dowd that she consented to leave
friends, home, and its many comforts, and an
Over-fOnd father and mother, with him. The
foolish g,rl ran away from school at a favorable
opportunity, and married her lover. In a
couple Of years afterward they came to Chicago.
Here Dowd fell in with all sorts OF bad fellows,
and finally opened saloon in South Water
classes Of criminals. He became notorious, and
was often in the hands of the police. His den
was broken up, and he has since been ''on the
town." He is now thirty-fve years old. His
wife Is still afne-looking woman, but bad as
sociations have tended to affect her morals
greatly. Dowd asserts that she has An Interior
