EF The origin IF the Southwestern Vir-
GINA salt works is curious. The place was
once vast swamp, nOiBome, slimy and dan
gerous. Deer, hogs and cattle would often
be found dead there. Vapor continually
arose from the sodden ground. So lonely
was it that it got tho reputation of being
haunted, aud when William Crabtree, a
hunter, settled upon it, and claimed it, he
found no one to dispute his right. From
bis heirs a certain William King, suspect
ing Its value as a salt field, from various
indications, bought it for a he and a po-
ny. lie opened it and cleared it ard dug
bis wells. Ii was profitable business,
add rapidly increased. During the war
these works were tho principal dependence
of the Confederscy for salt. Often a thous-
and covered wagons waited at one time to
load. They conveyed tho Salt for hundreds
of miles into the interior. After several
attempts the Federal troops demolished
tho works, but never held them for any
length Of time. The company now have
six furnaces, and make two thousard four
hundred bushels Of salt a dav.

e&-Tho Baltimore american says there
seems TO be well-founded belief that the
murdOrers Of Mrs. Mary Lampley at her
home in East Baltimore, on the night of
the I'd instant, are to be brought to pun
ishment. On yesterday week the police ar
rested on the charge of having committed
this terrible crime two young men, one
named Josiah Nicholson, connection Of
Mrs. Lampley by marriage, having married
her grandduught and the other a par
ty of very bad repute (having several a.
liases) named Thomas IIOlihau. The
former is a native Of Baltimore, q tin-can
maker by trade, aud is about thirty years
Of age. The latter has lately served term
in tho Maryland Psnitsninry, and is only
about twsnty-eight years of age The po-
lice represent that the evidence against
these parties is full and conclusive.
