Dastardly Act.

A fendish attempt was made to
throw the Memphis train off the track
just in the edge of town last Saturday
night. A twoinch oak plank had
been placed across the-track near the
curve, where the engineer could not
see it in time to check up. The train
passed over it without ditching; but
1t was moment of terrible suspense
to the passengers and crew. The
scoundrels who did it ought to be hung
te the nearest limb.
