GnnrInr TraNeIers.

The EUdnSUlLle Journal Of Sunday says:
ave are told that passengers will be taxed
fifty cents each by the st. Louis Bridge
Company, for crossing the bridge, and will
then have to pay fifty cents 'ous fare to
reach the hotels from the Union Depot. If
this is true it is a gross imposition on tts
travelling public, and most Of the passengers
will stop of at East St. Louis aud so over
on the street cars, on which they can buy
two tickets for fifteen cents. The first
regular Southeastern train crossed the
bridge last night

Recent of the Pirst New wheat.

The first shipment of new wheat TO
Nashville was received yesterday by Rhea,
Smith 4 Co. and forwarded to the Reser-
voir Mills, where it will sbe ground into
flour to-day. It was raised by Col. John
p. Stephens, of Williamson county, and
was Of the Early White Shaker variety and
of good quality-bTinging a fancy price.
We were informed By Mr.. McCann, the
proprietor of the mills, that Col. Stephens
has borne Off the palm, for bringing in the
first wheat, for the past three years.
Wheat harvest has commenced in this
and the adjoining counties, and by the
close Of the week a large part Of the crop
will have been harvested. Il is agreed on
all sides that the yield is magnificent both
as to quality and quantity.
Il is stated that one gentleman in VIII
Hanson has invested in two steam thresh-
ers and that he expects TO thresh at least
1900 bushels of wheat raised by the
farmers of his county.
So far as we can learn, Capt. Sam Poin-
ter, near Spring Hill, has the largest crop
of wheat in the State. He has 700 acres
which wiil average % bushels to the acre,
or 1880 bushels in the aggregate.

SAVING THROUGH.
Work House Prisoners ThWRrted in
an AttemPt 90 Escape.

ah - ~ A<sIoEfCs
About 9 o'clock Sunday afternoon, short
II after the conclusion of the religious ser
vices at the city work-hoUse, when. il be-
came time for the prisoners to go back to
their quarters, a negro named 10 Cole
showed some reluctance about going, and
walked out into the shed where the pris-
oHeTs are employed during the week in
breaking rock. The officer on duty at the
statiOn-hOuse had been called away, and
Polk Brown, the Stewart Of the institu-
ton, was the only one in charge. He Or
dered Cole to 90 behind the bars, but the
darkey showed fight. Brown then picked
up a spade and was going for him in live
" manner, when Pony Vaughn came in
and took a band in the scufle. The two
soon induced Cole TO retire, and order was
again restored.
Between 9 and 10 O'Clock Sunday night,
Sergeant Burke, who was on duty at the
station, discovered that the prisoners were
making an effort to regain their liberty and
had nearly filed one Of the iron bars in two
at the rear end Of room on the bank Of
the river. He inteIfered with their ar
rangements TO such an extent that they
didn't get away and now, six or seven of
the ringleaders are in irons. About
twenty men were confined in the room
from which the ringleaders were endeavOr-
ing 20 make their escape. Joe. Cole, color
ed, one Of the leaders, is in for 1873 days.

Calling the little ones all round her chair.
Hearing them lisp forth iheirsoit evening prayer,
Telling them stCl les OF Jesus of old,
Who loves TO gather the lamps Of his fold
Watching, they listen with childish delight
That is what mothers are doing to- night
Creeping 50 softly to take last peep,
After the little one. are all asleep;
Anxious to know il the children are warm,
Tucking the blankets round each little form;
Kissing each little face, rosy and bright
That is what mothers do night after night.

Lowly and meekly she bows down her head,
Praying as only a mother can pray,
