A day or two since Mrs. Thompson
came up from Rome, Georgia, bringing
with her little son about three years of
age. She had occasion to go into one of
the business houses on Gay street, when
the little fellow strayed off and wandered
about until he found himself ia front of
Murphy & Co.'s commission house, which
he entered, aud being fatigued with his
walk soon fell asleep. His mother soon
missed the little truant. but it was not I'M
til after several hours search that she
found him, having been assisted in her
search by several kind hearted gentlemen.
There is nothing remarkable about this
but as the child was discov-

get lost in. is encouraging and should teach
us to remember our youthful history that
Rome wasn't built in day."
