GALLANT CoNDUcT OF a YOUNG VIRGIN
IAN.-We are gratitied to notice, 10 the graphic
account by the reporter of the San Francisco
Chronicle of the late wreck of the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company steamer Costa RIGA.
at the North Head, the entrance of the
bay, the handsome manner 10 which a young
Richmond gentleman is spoken off. Mr..
James Il. Tucker, son Of Mr.. Beverly Tucker,
of this city, was purser on the Inflated steamer,
and is represented to have conducted himself
under the trying situation with conspicuous
galJantry, as will be seen by the following ex
tract
''The jar of striking was plainly felt and
caused considerable alarm, which was allayed
by the wise and prompt action Of the purser,
MIR. Tucker, aud two or three of the gentlemen
passengers who appealed to all in the cabin to
sit still and keep quiet. Mr.. Tucker acted
throughout with great coolness, presence OF
mind and maniness in the discharge OF his
duty He called in a number Of walters imme-
diately and distributed the life prescrvers very
quickly and remained with the captain and first
officer in the ship, sending up rockets at inter
seugers, etc., had been sent off in the small
boats. And a icllow-pusscngcr tes,;fcs to the
good conduct OF all the officers, adding that
the captain, Grst-oficer, and purscr, were cop
spcuous for gallant conduct.
This is the second experienced young Tuck
er 10 shipwrcck, the first being during the war
in the harbor of Wilmington on his return from
Europe when quite youth, upon which occa-
siou he was the last to give up the ship, swim
ming ashore with his dispatches, and winning
the good opinion of all who shared his dangers.
We congratulate our young friend upon his
second escape, and also upon the reputation
for courage and fidelity to duty which he seems
to have SO justly won in his far-off Western
homc. Rich. Wh;o,

TIE RIGHT TO LIGHT AND AIR.-Charcclor
Bates of Delaware, has delivered decision of
interest to real estate owners and builders. j..
II. Primrose, Of Smyrna. began over Two years
ago the building OF shed ia the rear of his store
house. The adjoining property is occupied by
DR.. j. +. Chwsoo, and the shed. when finish
ed, would have closed up the window Of the
doctor sitting room. He therefore obtained a
preliminary Injunction restraining Primrose
from work on the shed, and the Chancellor has
made the injunction perpetual. lie declares 10
his opinion that the right to light and air, en-
loved without interruption for over twenty
years. rests on the same ground as all other in
corporal rights: that the common law Of Eng
land, adopted by Delaware 10 l7776. provided
that where light aud air had been admitted to
a dwelling from any quarter unlnterruptedy for
a period of twenty years and over it could not
be shut off and as there was no statute cover
ing the case the common law must guide him 10
his decision.

TIE WALL STREET Stock SPECTATORS
One good result Ct the recent panic and dlsas-
tiers Suffered by leckless spectators IN Wall
street, is, dminuton in the number Of stock
gamblers. The New York Times says:
I" The greater number Of Wall street habi-
tues have been cleaned out Spectators who
we're worth hundreds of thousands ofdollars a
few days ago, by the terrible fall in stocks, and
by the locking up Of their funds in broken and
suspended institutions, are now left without
money to settle their board bills. One opera
tor, who was worth $1,000 before the panic,
was trying to borrow enough money the other
day to settle his Brooklyn board bill, which
had accumulated since the beginning OF the
financial disaster. lie said he was tired speeu-
lation and intended to go West The Phia-
delphia Ledger says there are many such SINH
larl y reduced in that city and elsewhere. The
consequences of the crash in the brief period
already passed have been most serious and
widespread. .
But the country will be benefited neverthe-
less, and Wall street will not cut such high
apers in future If all the thieves we're lash
ed out OF that temple of shavers with whip
of scorpions, the whole country might rejoice
1t is cess-poo Of corruption. -Lynchbmg

PoLlTIcs IN LoUDoUN COUNTY indie
pendent dodge in Loudoun has completely
played out The Radical candidates have
thrown aside the sleeps clothing, under cover
of which they expected to steal into the Con
servative fold, and take off votes enough to
elect them, though the Conservative majority
is 500 in the county, and they now appear in
their true character as Radical voters.
The Radical organ in this town announced
tn u, in its last issue, as purely and simply
Radical candidates, in accord in every manner,
form and shape, with the Radical party; and
Messrs. Carter and Nichols, throwing aside
every sort of disguise, placed themselves fairly
and squarcIy upon the Radical platform negro
equality and all.
There is therefore 10 possible chance for any
mistake upon this subject. Every Conservative
In Louduun county who votes for any candidate
upon the Radical ticket, will vote directly to
sustain the Radical party and Radical princ-
pies. -Loul0.m Enterprise

THE ANNIE STEWART.

BY invitation, we stepped aboard the
splendid steamer Annie Stewart, at
Moffett's wharf, Portland, on Tuesday
last, and made a voyage up :he Will
annette to Oswego and back. The boat
was in charge of Captain Kellogg, with
Captain Gilman, one of the owners, as
directing engineer. This steamer has
undergone thorough overhauling, hav-
ing been fitted with new machinery,
and an immense boiler of the heaviest
iron in use, having stood a test of $40
pounds to the the square inch. But 60
pounds Of steam was carried. yet the
symmetrical craft glided through the
water at a speed equal to that of any
boat on the river. Every part of the
machinery worked to the perfect salts
faction of the engineer, and the boat
was found to handle with ease. Mon
day next is the day set for the trial trip
of this vessel, after which she will be
put on the upper river until the Govern
or Grover is ready to run. A number
of guests will be invited on this trip,
who will be sumptuously entertained by
the owners. 1t is proposed to pass
through the locks, and ascend
the Willamette to Harrisburg, if the
stage of water will permit. Should this
boat be able to reach Corvallis, its citi-
zens should be prepared to entertain the
company on shore in befitting manner,
and give an earnest of the feeling held
by this community for the company who
have labored so energetically in estab-
fishing an opposition to the monopoly
which has SO long feeced our people by
exorbitant freight tariffs. Let US give
the Annie and her guests a rousing
reception.
