A Remarkable Case

the most prominent clIlzenS oi Denver, Colorado, in a fit ofanger, deliberately shot and killed an- other young man and fed. Ma turalIy enough the occurrence created great sensation in the the city, and efforts were made by the officers to arrest the murderer. Some blame is attached to them for lack of diligence or absolute neglect Of duty in allowing the young man to escape. After the excitment over the event had somewhat subsided, the father Oi the youth presented himself be- fore the authorities and pledged his word that in two days after his son should be delivered to the officers. He is said to have been placed entirely out of the reach o1 the authorities, aud had his father desired to shield him from justice he could have accomplished his final escape. True to his word, the parent was before the officers and delivered the lad into their custo- dy. The Denver Neacs, comment ing upon this act, remarks that if is seldom, very seldom indeed, that such an act is done. To re. deem such 8 promise required, in a father, the incest sense of honor, the highest nerve, the largest amount Of self-control. Let the public note the fact as one which displays genuine heroism, and the truest qualities Of manhood.
 A petrified baby has been ex- humed from Chicago cementery. The Times says: "All save the mother of the little infant, stood muteiy locking upon it, but she became nearly frantic with excite ment from the first moment that the body was exosed to view. She had endeavoured to take it from the cohin, crying bitterly, and wildly insisted upon taking it with her to her home. Her hus- band held her back and would not allow her 10 remove il. The mother seemed nearly distracted with grief at the thought of it's being reinterrcd. It looked so natural and beautiful, so like the baby she placed in the grave ten years ago, that it brought up al! her sorrow afFcsA, as if she WAS

The death Of Tom Corwin, which
cave us all sorrow, served TO revive
many good stories concerning him.
When quite young man he was elected
a member OF the General Assembly OF
the State of Ohio, and early in the SEES.
sion he brought In bill for the destruc-
ton of the public whipping-post. He
made an earnest speech in favor of the
measure, TO which an elderly member
replied as follows: "Mr. Speaker, the
gentleman is not ~ old ~ am, and
has not seen a. much of the practical
operation OF the system Of punishment
which he desires to abolish. When
lived in Connecticut, if fellow stole
horse, or cut up other antics, we used
to tie him up and give him real good
thrashing; and he always cleared right
out, and we never saw anything more
of him. It's the best way of getting rid
of the rougues that ever was tried, and
and without expense to the State" Mr..
Corwin, who never failed to carry his
point by q joke, if the argument was
againt him, only made the brief reply:
"Mr. Speaker, have often been puz.
lied to account for the vast emigration
from Connecticut to the West, but the
gentleman last up has explained it to
my satisfaction" 1t is almost needless
to say that Mr.. Corwin's bill passed by
an overwhelming majority.

The amended Texas Pacific Railroad
bill, a. it passed the Senate on Satur-
day night, provides that the company
must build and maintain line from
Marshal to Shreveport, and requires the
gauge to be uniform with the other
Paci roads. Twenty-Five miles must
be la,llt from the western terminus east.
war'i within three years, and not less
than 100 miles within two years from
the eastern end, and not less than 100
miles yearly thereafter, and the whole
road to be finished in ten years. An
amendment limiting the issue of con.
struction bonds to $4,000 per mile, and
authorizing the company to include in
the mortgage, to secure their bonds, any
lands they may acquire by consolidating
with other roads, to whom land grants
may have been made along the same
route, was adopted. The company are
also required to commence the con-
struction of the road from San Diego
eastward within one year from the
passage Of the act.

A Connecticut Romance.

The Norwich Advertiser tells the fol-.
lowing love story "a lady of this city
made the acquaintance about twenty
years ago of young man living in a
neighboring town. Fifteen years since
he went to the Sandwich Islands in
search Of fortune, and during these
years a correspondence has, with a single
exception, been kept up between them
until the friendship grew into a
stronger tie, and eliminated in an en-
gagement which will soon be developed
in matrimonial alliance. This morn
ing, full of pluck and love, laden with
the best wishes Of host Of friends that
witnessed her departure, she has started
alone to make that journey which shall
carry her overland to California, thence
by water to the islands where she is to
meet the object of her affections, to be
