NARROW ESCAPE. DIR. j. H. BayDe, son
in-aw of Auditor Ashby, was one of the last
who crossed the river on the ice before the
prevailing thaw He had the precautlon1 to
take with him short pole, aud it vas well he
did, for he broke through the ice several times
on bis way to the opposite shore, and would
certainly have been drowned had it not been
for the pole, which, catching upon the sides OF
the holes he made in going down, lore him up
until he could scramble out.

cultivated farm of Mr. Samuel Pullman, called

full lesson to be learned by many other farmers
in Old Virginia. In his management every
thing is done to make farm home and work at

as they grew up they are not inclined to leave
the farm and 20 into the town to live; a con.

and no man 10 his sober senses now attempts
to drive over them with loaded wagon. In

the late war, pow have those painful reminis

RIVER News Under the influence OF the
prevailing rains and mild weather the ice is
rapidly disappearing from the river, and so
gently that the auticipations of danger from
the rapid descent of the large mass above here
have been almost dissipated. F1oes OF differ
ent sitzas arc floating up aud down with the
tide but they arc too soft to do any damage to
the distractions they meet with. The water
is very muddy but the current is no greater than
it was yesterday, and up to this time there has
been no rise 10 the river. The heavy fog that
has prevailed for the last day OF two, still con-
tinues, and owing to it, probably the two tugs
that started down yesterday had not returned
w to three clock this afternoon. As stated
Yesterday the steamer Pilot Boy will recon-
n,cnce her trips to the Potomac landings next
Tuesday. The steamship John Gibson will
leave New York for this city next Saturday
d unless there be further interruption by ice
the ships of the New York line will thereafter
run regularly leaving here on Fridays and New
York on Saturdays. 1t was reported to-day
that the Washington ferry would be re-opened
tomorrow, but there was no authoritative an
nouuccmeut to that effect:
The Washington Star says: THE ice 10 the
river below the Long Bridge shows signs to-
day OF breaking up, especially in the channels,
but above the bridge II presents on the surface
a smooth aud connected appearance, although
it is represented Il, fast wearing by the current
underneath. Should there be rise from the
rain duriug the past two days on the upon river
the ice won soon disappear and most likely
damage woul,: DC done the wharvcs and vessels.
A thick vapUr has been rising from the Ice
all the morning, aud for the greater part OF
the day has massed in "A heavy cloud up and
down as far as The eye can reach. About II
0 clock to-day pretty strong current Set 10
carrying considerable zee with 1t below the
bridge. River men report the channel free
all the way 10 Alex nlra and nothing prevents
the running Of the ferry boats were they 10 a
proper condition. During the ice embargo
Superintendent Gcduey has taken occasion to
have both the City Of Alexandria and
CITY of Washington " repainted inside aud
out, aud they present neat and much I'M
proved appearance. :,
Reports from above this afternoon are to the
effect that all the water courses cmptylng into
the river are rising, some having already over
flowed their banks, and that the antlclpatlons
of a freshet in the Potomac may Yet be re-
allied.
