TOUCHING INCIDENTAL Lynchburg
(Na.) paper gives the following Incl
dent of the late terrible food in that
State:
"A mother and several little children
were making their escape from a mar
row neck of land which lies between the
river and the canal, when they were
amazed to find that the bridge was al
ready gone, and their only hope was to
cling on 10 the abutment of the bridge
until the angry waters should subside.
But as they stood there clinging to the
abutment, the waters continued TO rise
higher, while in the deep darkness they
could hear the crashing of trees and the
thunder of bridge timbers, that were
wildly dashing all around them. They
had been in this desperate condition for
some time, when the little girl felt that
her strength was gone, and with a wild
shrek of terror she exclaimed, Kiss
me, mother, for can't hold any longerr
and with the warm pressure Of that
mothers lips upon her cheek she was
swept away and was seen no more"

y fascinating youth Of Louisville
was recently very badly "sold'' bv the
matron of the Kentucky State Prison
in whose daughter he seemed to e,,ince
a very strong interest while TRAVELLING i'm
a railroad-car. Thinking that the fir
tatiOn had continued long enough. She
suddenly changed her scat to the side of
the young man, and Whispered i'm his
ear, ''Sir, you are total stranger to
me, but feel ii my duty TO warn You of
impending evil. That young lady is
just out of the State Prison" y passen-
ger got off at the next station.

a FIELD FOR SUMNER WoRK.-There
are two suggestions which we think
worthy of earnest consideration by the
convention which meets this week i'm
Washington. One of these-that the
WOmen's Christian Associations be
represented in the general conventions
il presented by one of our correspondents
in the Young Mems Christian AssOcia-
tion department of this issue.
The desirableness of this is readily
apparent. The field is the world, and
neither the field nor the workers i'm il
can afford the confinement of plans and
cOunsels TO narrow, arbitrary limits. II
young men are to be brought To Christ
and stimulated to do brave work for him,
There Is no human means more potent
than the influence of Christian women.
Cooperation between the sexes more
than doubtless the efficiency of each.
While there are kinds of labor I'm which
the one will be more successful than the
other, there is no kind i'm which the
counsels and help of each will not be
highly serviceable.

BEWARE OF POwDER-A HINT To
DOvERs.-There is a good joke going the
rounds, of young lady and a gentleman
at fashionable party in this city a few
evenings since. The young man was
handsome and happy; the young lady
arrayed in all the exquisite taste of
lavender, rose, etc, with gold powdered
hair flowing over her swan-like neck.
Finding the heat of the room too much
for them, they sought the cool shade of
an arbor where they might listen TO the
fountains fall. The music rose and fell,
time flew on silver pinions, and after an
absence of about three hours our young
friends entered the brilliantly illumi-
mated parlors. The lady passed on in
the dance, but the young man was
slightly taken abaek 10y his next neigh
Dor informing him that round his neck
was the unmistaken print Of two arms,
all in chalk and diamond dust, on one
shoulder large pile of yellow powder,
and on his upper lip and cheek diamond

hair was observed TO be several shades
paler. Moral-carry dusting broom in

An aged woman in North Adams,

+ A MAIDEN's LovE.-Human nature
has no essence more p,ire---the world
knows nothing more chastc-hcaven
has endowed the mortal heart with none
holier, that the nascent affection of q
young virgins soul. The warmest Ian.
guage of the sunny South is too cold to
shadow forth even faint outline of the
enthusiastic sentiment And Provi-
dence has made the richest language
poor III the same respect, because the
dcbthS Of hearts tball thrill with loves
emotions arc too sacrod for the common
contemplation. The musical voice of
love stirs the source of tile sweetest
thoughts within the human breast, and
steals into the profound recesses of the
soul, touching cords that never vibrated
before, aud calling into gentle compan-
ship delicious hopes until then unknown.
Yes, the light Of a young maidens first
love breaks dinly but beautifully upon
her as the silve' ustre of n star glim-
mers through thickly woven bower :
aud the first blush that mantles her
cheek as she feels the primal influence,
is faint and pure as that which rose
leaf might cast upon marble. But how
rapidly does that light grow stronger,
and that flush deeper, until the power
full effulgence of the ono graduates every
corner of her heart, und the crimson
glow of the other suffuscs every feature
OF her countenance.

The Indians do this, but in their state
of barbarity there may be some excuse
offered as an extenuation of the crime,
but none can be made to Tighten the sin
when committed by civilized, proud,
aud naughty knight Of the Nineteenth

case. How often is it the case that one
of these lords takes to himself q dar-
ling that he has woocd and loved for
years, promises TO be kind even TO eter-
nifty, pledges an unerring adelity on
bended knee, and yet soon afseg the
msrriage VOW is performed acts like q
brute, nay fiebd incarnate to her whom
he once promised to lead through q
path all strewn with roses. Alas ! how
often has it been tho case that the dear
visions of future happiness, cherished
by fond young bride, are blighted ere
the honey moon has expired. How
often in such cases it is so that where
there were flowers last week, nothing
but ashes can be seen this. Obi degen-
crate aud fallen man, wilt thou always
turn out to be viper instead of hus-
band towards the tender creature who

those whome thou promisest to pilot
through tranquil waters, and instead
take them over breakers? ?
But let us stop, lest we spin this

w WoMAN.-Being hard up for sub
jec's for local matter, we thought that
it would not be sin to write Of the
object expressed in the word at the be-
ginning of this article.
Webster says that woman is an adult
female of the human race. So far so
good. But the question is, isn't she
more? We wonder it the old sayes
heart didn't think that one ut least was
more? 1t is very probable
Now it We go off into rhapsody on
this subject, no ono must be surprised,
for we arc always halfway .ff our bal
ancc whenever we sit down to contem.
plate subject so important to the hap
pincss Of the lords of creation. In fact.
there are very few persons who can
maintain their accustomed equanimity
when dwelling upon theme of such
absorbing interest.
Well, to begin with what The Or
ANGEBURG News thinks of woman. we
must write that it holds her in higher
esteem than the meager definition given
of her by Webster would attach to her
sex. 1t regards her as the polar star of
mans existence as beacon light plac-
ed before him to cheer and to comfort
as cloud Of fire to lead him safely
through myriad of woes; and as the
nearest approach on earth to the angelic
creatures that hover around the throne
of the great / Am in Heaven.
What is she The earliest visions
of the school boy attests to his youthful
mind that she must be his future source
of happiness. We remember the time
when we we're lcng way from attain.

arrested and made captive by the ir-

whole being was absorbed in the idea,
and our books were forgotten for the
time, despite the seedlings of our teacher,
she seemed all to us. Every fiber of
our young heart was entwined around
her existence, and then for the first time
we realized how dear woman could
become 10 man, or a girl to boy
rather, for we were onl stripling at
the time. What became of our youthful
attachment is neither here nor there.
We say that woman is the dearest, aud
most sacrificing creature under the
Heavens. She will endure and brave
more for an object of love than any
other being on earth. She is the only
link that binds man to this mundane
sphere. Sweep these heavenly creatures
from the earth and what would become
