There is incarcsrated in the Eastern
Penitsntiary man named George Wood.
ward. whose skill in performing his al
lotted tasks. notwithstanding the fact
that he Is without hands, is the cause Of
much surprise to those who witness 1t.
Woodward. who IL now about forty
Eve years Of age. was born without
hands. His father was a wsll-to-do
farmer near Marshallton. Chester coun-
". at the time Of Georges birth. but.
when the latter was a small boy, removed
to Ohio. As the lad grew up to man.
hood. he was here brought into contact
with drovers and horse dealers, and soon
became most expert horseman.
During the war Woodward returned
TO this state and was q sutler st Camp
Cadwalla,ler for "a time. While at the
latter place he purchased horse, which
proved to have been stolen. Being q
stranger. he could not prove the pur-
chase or his own character, and he was
ccnyictsd and sentenced 70 imprison-
ment in tie Eastern Penitsntiary. In
1870, having. IL seems, gone regularly
into the business, he attempted to run u
stolen horse out West from here. but
was arrested st Chambsrsburg. and. upon
trial, was convicted and sentenced to q
term Of fourteen years in tho Eastern
Penitsntiary, Of which he has served
about four years.
Woodward il man Of intelligence.
anil seems to 10 not naturally bad "
heart. lie also says that his past sx-
perieneo has fully taught him the value
Of An honest life. and after he shall have
been released he will lead proper life.
Upon his commitment there was some
doubt ss to whether he could be placed
ut labor Of any kind. but he soon con-
vincsd those in charge Of him that he
is. IL the word can DO properly used in
this case, M deltrous - the average
prisoner. II not more so. He was first
put at chair making. and soon became
iirst-class workman. lie has now earn

fifty dollars, which he has invested in .

Wooawsrd's arms are perfectly form-
cd To the wrist. but from that point they
taper of, b.ing about two or three in
ches in thickness ut the end. lie works
with the utmost ease. using his feet In
place Of fingers. He slaves himself
quite ariistically. and writes a good
"hand." Altogether he is much moro
clever than some Of the handless per-

RISE AND FALL OF THE WATERs.-The

RISE AND FALL OF THE WATERs.-The
Signal Service reports on Wednesday, for
the last twenty four hours show that dur
ing this period the Mississippi has continu-
ed to rise from La Cross to Warsaw, fallen
from st Louis to Cairo and risen thence
to the extent of one inch only as far down
as Vicksburg, while at New Orleans it has
fallen one inch. The Red River has risen
one inch at Shreveport. The Arkansas
has fallen at Little Rock, and the Cumber-
land at Nashville is still falling, being
three feet lower than on Sunday last. The
Missouri has fallen throughout it's entire
course, while the Ohio has risen from
Pittsburgh to Evansville, and fallen thence
to its mouth. The crest of the rise ap-
pears to be at Louisville, where the change
is three and ahalf feet. The Allegheny
and Monongahela have both risen slightly,
but not enough to seriously affect the Ohio.
