The Results of Prudence and Industry.

Between forty-fve and fifty years ago,
says the Washington Republican,, there was
a young lad employed on canal i'll Mary
land as tow-boy. It is notorious that
there is no situation in the world more
demoralizing to youth than association with
the class of men and boys who run canal
boats. The life is one of constant depriva-
ton and hardship, and, incident to it, one
can hear more cursing and swearing and
see more men drunk, in given time, than
would be believed possible. The boy re-
ferred to, however, remembered the coun-
sells of most excellent mother and preserved
his daily life pure from the communicating
influences around him. He soon became
noted for his prudence and sagacity and
for the success of every little thing entrusted
to his management. OF course he rapidly
rose in the estimation of his employers and
was advanced from post to post until he
became an owner and controller in the COM
mercial interests of his native State and
citizen of commanding influence in the
town of Elkton.
In all financial affairs within the radius
of his influence his advice was sought. and
his prudent counsels have invaribly been
for the good of those accepting them. He
became the President of the Cecil National
Bank, Port Deposit, Nd; the President of
the Elkton National Bank, at Elkton, Md.
He was then chosen President of the Ma
tional Bank Of Fredericksburg, Va, and
recently he has been selected as the Presi-
dent of the Citizens National Bank, of
Washington, D. G. He is the only man in
the United States who is President at the
same time of four National Banks. The
authorized capital of these four banks is
over 81, 100000. He is now sixty-fiv years
of age, q widower, and without child in
the world to inherit his vast estates; but
every poor boy in the country has a legal
Inheritance in the shining example of Jacob
Tones fidelity to all those qualities which

The Garroter Brady Released
The Reason Not Known.

1t will be remembered that one Tom Brady
was arrested some time ago, for garrotins
Mr.. Paff on Canal street on tho night of the
9th last He was then taken to the Fourth
Precinct Station, and when searched pawn
ticket was found upon him for a gold watch
and chain.
The crime having been committed in the
Second District, Brady was sent before
Judge Staes' Court on the charge of robbery;
the Judge sent him to the Parish Prison un-
der bonds. But some time ago he was re-
leased as he says on bonds Three days ago,
Chief of Detectives Schreber took the pawn
ticket that had been found on Brady and
redeemed the watch, and thea advertised the
watch.
Mrs. Poneau, who resides at the corner of
Orleans and Bourbon streets, went to the
office of Capt. Schreber vest erday and iden-
titled the watch, and stated that on the
night of the 18th of January, 1874, when
her house was on fire she lost the watch it
being part of a burglary that was COM
mitted at that time, aud says that she saw
three men in her room at the armoir, but
took them to be tremen; but her descrip-
ton of one of the party answered so accu-
rately to that of Brady, that Special Officer
Smith rearrested Brady yesterday, and
showing the pawn ticket in question, asked
him if It belonged to him, to which he re-
piled in the affirmative. He was then taken
before Judge Staes.
When the Judge saw Brady, he was per-
fectly taken aback, and said to him. "why,
how did you get ont ?" II got ont Oh bonds"
was his reply, upon which the Judge called
TO his clerk and asked for the bond-bOok,
but no account could be found of any bond,
or order for the release of Brady. He then
Intercepted Brady as to whom his bonds
man was, but Brady failed to remember the
name. He was then sent to the Parish
Prison under $1,000 bonds, on an affidavit
made against him by Special Smith, charg-
ing him with robbery. Can this mystery
be solved

Chinese Justice.

The Shanghai Courier tells tale of hor-
rOr, and, in connection, speaks of the court
Trial that will grow out of it. The judicial
process is somewhat odd, but the verdict
may turn out as righteous as many that are
given under more solemn forms of law in
other countries. A Chinese sailor, who was
away for long periods on the sea, returned
home from voyage and heard all his
neighbors talking badly of his wife. He
said nothing to her, gave out that he was
going away again, and started. He did
not go far, however, but kept a watch OH
his house in company with two or three
friends. The next day this sailor went to
the presiding magistrate of the city carry
ing sack with two human heads in it.
They were the heads Of his wife and her
guilty companion, which the avenging hus-
band had severed That Chnaman is to be
| tried by test of the guilt or Innocence OF
the murdered man and woman. Both heads
will be put into a large tub of water and
set in motion by vigorous stirring. If, when
they come to a rest the heads settle face to
| face. it is clear proof of guilt If they do
not take this relative position they are
adjndged to have been innocent, and the
sailor loses his head too, as II punishment
for murder. This cutting off of heads by
an injured husband is a custom. If he
had severed the mans only it would have
been murder under Chinese law. Fat cut
ting off both and taking them to a
magistrate subjects the slayer to but trifling
Inconvenience, as those who conduct the
stirring trial generally sympathze with the
avenger. They manage to bring the two
dead witnesses into d mutually accusing po-
sition before the evidence is all in. Then
the Court intlIcts a mere nominal punish
ment to keep up its dignity, and the wronged
husband is rewarded by ~ valuable cons.l-
GRAFTON at the hands Of his neighbors and
friends. The bodies Of the guilty pair are
destroyed by cremation, and the piece of
ground rendered unclean by the evil mnst
be plouwed up before the virtuous will
venture to dwell near it. These ceremonies
dispose of the whole case, and make a clean
inh of it.

The number of raiders is greater than it
was previously. They steal fewer cattle
because there are fewer to steal. The Mex

A suggestion from Gen. Inboden, of Vir-
GINA, has very important bearing upon
railroad interests in the Southern States
He proposes to connect the Ohio River at
Louisville with the tide waters in Virginia
at Norfolk by means of a cheap, narrow
gauge railway, penetrating the rich mineral
counties of Virginia and Kentucky. 1t is
very possible that q large number of Eng.
lish miners, in the event of the railroad
being built, can be induced to settle on the
mineral lands, whict. include some nine or
ten counties in the two States. Up to this
time this region has been utterly without
railroad facilities. But it abounds ir rnLr-
nous undeveloped wealth. The road is in
tended to 60 by Cumberland Gap, and will
be the shortest route geography admits of
from Louisville to the sea.
