A Touching Incident Of the
Flood.

Flood.
The Petersburg, Va, Lnder says:
James Shipe, a young man, was liv-
ing with his wife, to whom he had
been welded about Ave months; on
OrertOn's island. When tlIe fiOod
, swept away his house, on Friday
night, he stripped himself for a
mighty swim, and taking his wife
on his back, he plunged out into the
| raging waters, hoping to strike a
tree or some Of the strong houses
that had not yet yielded to the
waves. He bravely struggled along,
holding to his precious burden, and
Selling one object after another, only
to find it give way under his grasp.
His wife entreated him to let her go
and save himself. "You are not
prepared to die, my dear husband.
and trust i am" were her world.
At last he caught by the water tank
on Halls island, but he soon lost his
hold and was once more adrift ia
the food. He next caught himself
on THE branches of a floating tree, On
which he supported himself Tor a
few moments, and lifting up his
wife's head, which he had be en- una
BILE to keep above water, he found
that she was dead. The beloved
form which he had borne for five
| hundred yards, now cold and lifeless,
dropped from his grasp and disap-
peared beneath the yellow waters.
The strong swimmer struggled on,
and soon struck the end Of the burnt
mill on Beck's Island, where he
| rested for q few minutes, and then
reached tree growing in front Of
| the row Of brick houses, and planting
| himself behind one of the chimneys
remained there until brought down
ON Saturday.-Er.

ACCIDENT ON THE G. T. RAILwAY.-Yester-
day morning at about o'clock, a singular ac-
cident occurred on the Grand Trunk railroad,
between West Paris and Bryant's Pond A
constructive train, composed of an engine and
seventeen cars, loaded with scrap iron, came at
full speed down the steep grade which exists
in that locality. A section man had taken up
rail upon the track in order to make repairs,
and had sent f1agman back to signalize this
train. The engineer seeing this whistled
"down brakes" and reversed, but the train
could not be retarded to any great extent there
engineer then pulled open the valve, and turn
ing to Tobie, the fireman, told him to jump,
but he hesitated Sinclair, the engineer and
Mr. Jordan then jumped from the engine
on the naked lodges, sustaining, as far as
known, only sprains and bruises. The engine
passed over the gap and down an embank ment
of GO feet in height, turning over once and a
half in the transit and becoming total wreck
Six cars were piled in every way about the en-
CINE, Tobie being carried with the engine, but
strange to say escaped with comparatively
slight injuries, being scalded upon his face,
hands, elbow ard right leg by the escaping
steam, and being pinioned by the leg beneath
the truck frame of the engine, suffering some
injury from this. The sufferers had medical
attendance at West Paris, and Young Tob;e
was further attended by DR.. Gordon in this
city,
