A BRAVE Acr.-The Aune Arundel 4d-
vertiser of Thursday contains the following:
Gan accident showing great presence Of
mind in mere boy occurred in our commun-
ity short time since, and must not pass
unrecorded. The hero of the incident was
Daniel Writ, student at St. Johns College,
about sixteen years of age, and the locality
the College creek Young Writ had gone
down alone to the creek to take bath during
reces, and soon after two boys-the one a son
and the other nephew of Professor Dashiell,
aged respectively ten and fourteen years
came down and entered the water some fifty
yards below him. After awhile Writ missed
the boys, and suspecting that something was
wrong, ran down the shore to their clothes.
He then saw the hair of one of them float
upon the surface for moment and disappear.
He Immediately swan out to the spot and
dived. He found them near together, lying
on the bottom not altogether unconscious, for
they cluthed him as he approached them.
He disengaged himself, however, land grasping
each of them by leg, lifted them to the sur
face. The water was there, fortunately, only
eight or ten feet in depth; and holding the
boys in this way above his head, and partly
out of the water, Writ managed, with their
added weight, to walk upon the bottom some
10 or Is yards, and until he got within his
own depth, coming to the surface at intervals
to breathe. After good deal Of coughing
and spluttering the boys found themselves
able to thank their deliverer, and to resume
their clothes. Itseemed that young Dashiell,
who could not swim, had accidentally over
stepped his depth, and his cousin, in attempt
to assist him, had been dragged down with
him. Their struggles had caraied them still
further out, and they say they had gone
down three or four times before the rescue
came. Writ simply said he thought if he
attempted to save them one at time the
last would probably have been dead before
he could have been brought to the shore"

THE GRAIN Crops IN TIE NORTHWEST.
A dispatch from Chicago announces that
reports from Eastern and Central Wisconsin,
Eastern and Central Iowa, Northern and
Central Indiana, and all parts of Illinois, in
dicate that therecen thunder and storm
and hurricane had no perceptable i'll effects
upon the growing crops. Many of the dis
patches say the crop prospect were never
better. In few localities the wheat crop
is suffering from rust Reports from West
ern Wisconsin and the great wheat belt in
Minnesota do not give SO favorable view.
The St. Paul Press says, recent trip
over the section bordering the Mississippi
River showed that the reported i'll condition
of the wheat crop was, fully justified. The
accounts from Minnesota justify the belief
that the disaster has been general, and that
the yield will be far below the average
Taking the country as whole, We do not
think there will be any deficiency, although
there be little if any grain for export from
California, where the crops have suffered
most heavily. -.

A CONFEDERATE HERo1NE-The Louis
vile Courier Journal has the following para
graph: "Gen. Gordon, Of Georgia, and his
wife, are at the Gait House. Gen. Gordon
rose rapidly and high in Confederate conf
dence, but his wife is as remarkable in mill
tary annals as many a heroine of olden story,
She, with her two boys, in barouche, fol-
lowed the army Of her husband, and she never
was hindrance or an embarrassment to his
movements. At Winchester, in the valley
of Virginia, when, for the first time, his troops
fell back before vastly superior numbers, she,
who was supposed by her husband to be
many miles in the rear, happened to be in the
town, and saw the critical condition of the
Confederate cause. She descended from her
carriage, and, amid the rush of retreating
men, the bursting of shells and the whiz Of
bullets, she seized hold of the very persons Of
soldiers and turned them back to the fight.
Her resolution, coolness and heroic spirit
rallied hundreds and. returned them to her
husband in the front. The incident was
known all over Virginia at the time and in
the army.
