A Beautiful Incident.

A young men recently fa1 away
from the galleys Of T,u'ou.e, He
was strong and vigorous and arrived
next. morning before a cottage, and
stopped to get something to eat, and
get refuge while he reposed little.
But he found the inmates of the cot
tage in the greatest distress. Four
little children sat trembling in the
corner-their Tothcr sat Weeping
and tearing her hair, and the father
was walking the floor in agony.
The galley.slave asked what was
the matter, and the father replied
that they were that morning 10 be
turned out of doors, because they
conld not pay their rent. Aa lz-4iA
'You see me driven to despair"

Whosoever brings back an escaped

You to the city, where you will get

"No, neverl" exclaimed the fa-
ther. any children should sta-vo

The generous man insisted, and
declared that he would go and give
himself up if the father would not take
him the after yielded, aud taking
his preserver by the arm, led him to
the mayors Office. -
Every body was surprised to SEQ
that little man was able to capture
such strong young fellow. -
The fifty francs were paid, and tha
prisoner sent back TO the galleys.
But after he was gone the father
asked q private inter view with the
Mayor. to whom he told the whole
story. The Mayor was so much Affect
ed, that he not only added francs to the
fathers purse, but wrote Immediate
to the Minister Of justice, Begging
the noble young prisoners release.
The Minister examined into the affair
and finding it was comparatively small
offence which had condemned the
young man to the galleys. and that
he had already served cut half his
term, ordered his release. ~

work on the Valley Railroad, between
Staunton and Salem, was announced by us
last week, The contractors will close up
ON the 21st inst, according to their thirty

expended all it's cash, and finding it lmpos-
sible in the present state OF the money
market to negotiate mortgage loan mere
or in Europe on an uncompleted road, have
determined to suspend work until their
securities shall become marketable. The
bonds issued by Staunton and the valley
counties in payment of their subscription
have been used up in the prosecution OF
the work so far. Messrs. VIM. Kayser, OF
the Baltimore and Ohio r. R., Richard
Norris, Jr, of Baltimore, and M. G. Har-
man, director in the Valley II. Ii. with
President Robt. Garrett, have been au-
thorlzed to lease the completed road be-
tween Staunton and Harrisonburg, and
report to a meeting of the directors to be
held before New Years day. Messrs. Ma
son & Hoge, contractors, have notified the
authorities of the penitentiary that they
will return the 200 convicts they have at
work.
