Educating an Orphan. years ago,
a poor woman receiving the charities Of the
public as an inmate of the alns-house, en-
trusted her fatherless child to be raised and
educated to Mrs. Mary Starkey, resident
of "Solitude," situated on Cary street,
near Seventh. Little did the poor mother
know what was to be the sad fate sof the
little girl she was then giving another.
/ Mrs. Starkey raised the girl, and ieduca-
ted" her, too; but it consisted in being
trained to follow the same life of infalny
and shame so industriously pursued by her
self. After selling her virtue, she followed
the life Of an outcast, by which dollars
were pocketed by the woman who had pro-
missed to care for the little girl, until her
beauty began TO fade. The profits arising
from the vocation of the orphan growing
less and less, Mrs Starkey treated her in
such manner as forced her to seek anoth-
er shelter. She refused to give her the
clothing she had obtained by her manner of
living. The girl had Mrs. S. arrested, who
was brought before. Justice White this
morning, when she was discharged por-
ton of the clothes given the girl and the rest
returned to the woman who had ruined
and bebauched an unprotected orphan girl.
Without debating to the Justice, it would
have been but justice to imprison the cruel
old wretch for life.

A Wife Shamefiilly Beaten by a D,soake,
Husbdnd.-We were informed yesterday
evening, and requested to say by the
brother of Mrs. Dyer, the wife of Archer
Dyer, that he Dyer went home about7l2
O'Clock in a state of intoxication, and beat
his wife in shameful manner. It will be
remembered that they were but short
time ago married, after having lived to-
gether for a number Of years as man and
wife. We were told that the cause of the
difficulty originated from criminal inti-
macy between Dyer and the sister of his
wife. After beating his wife, he, in CON-
pany with this sister, went 10 Richmond.
A warrant was taken out for his arrest, but
up to the present writing he has not been
returned to Manchester. e+a-tl
Returned. We notice a number of our
young men who left some time ago to work
on the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad bridge

Railroad Accidaa.-The freight train
bound for Danville from this city on Satul-
day night last, met with quite serious
accident Just this side Of Danyille, near the
off the entire train, the engine ran down on
the switch, but not going far enough, the
cars which had been let loose came with
such force against the engine as to smash
the tender to atoms and seriously damage
the engine. Several freight cars were
thrown from the track and the contents
scattered. 1t being the engineers first
trip, and the night quite dark, he was con-
sequently not acquainted with the track.
He jumped from the engine just in time to
save his life.

Remarkable oacdence.-There is re-
markable coincidence in the appearance of
two items in the local columns of the Pc
tersburg hader of yesterday, particularly,
as in the same column, it informs us that
many of its citizens remember the time
McGiffin came to Petersburg in command
of colored troops. We give the items, as
we clip them from the Iader, the one di-
rectly beneath the other. We are dis
posed to think it only accidental with the
hder, but if mistaken, that local would
suit the Charlottesville Chronicle without
reference:

Measures of repression, test-oaths and poiti-
cal exclusion have pursued us, in the dreary, vul-
gar routine in which tyranny, inventing nothing
new, repeats itself the world over. The laws
which clothe the President with authority, for
political offences too vaguely defined to be intel
ligible, to invade the Southern States, to suspend
the hdbeds corpus, and employ the army and
navy against their unhappy people, were passed
Mt his personal solicitation, after Congress had
expressed its sense that more political legisla-
tion was required by the state of the country and
was about TO adjourn. He declares now, in q
formal proclamation, that these laws are of 'ex-
traordinary Importance; that although they are
general application in their terms the necessity
therefor is well known to have been caused
chiefly by persistent violations of the rights of
citizens of the United States by combinations of
lawless and disafected persons in certain locali-
ties lately the theatre of insurrection and mill
tary conflict y and not halting at their '.extra
ordinary or doubtful character, he declares
''that he will not hesitate to exhaust the powers
thus vested in the Executive whenever and
wherever it may be necessary to do so' Thus
has this official armed with power by a sub
servient Congress- declared war against large
body of the American people, and forced them to
know him hereafter only us their enemy.

A few days ago, farmer near South
Hampton, Connecticut, sold II horse for
$3.50. and, on going home, put the
money in its place-a dilapidated drawer
in an old bureau. His place for matches
was the same drawer. A few days after
ward, after using the milestone, he
threw it into its place-the aforesaid
drawer. A few minutes later, he saw
smoke coming from the drawer. On n
hasty examination. he found that the
MILESTONE, as he threw it down, had
ignited the matches, and the matches
had set fire to the greeubacks, and the
greenbacks had burned to ashes.
