An Adventurous Time.

We met yesterday a young gentle
men, named Rudolph Scharf, who has
assureGly had wOudtrOusly adventu-
rOus life, for IA few weeks past He
was formerly II resident Of this city
where lie has many friends-nud
worked with Mr.. VIM. J. FOlkes.
Some years ago he went to Germany,
where his mother who has since died
was very sick Desiring To return to
America, he took passage on the i'll
lated Deuichland, aud was with her in
All her miSfortunes, having remained
"a hours IN the rigging without food
ar drink. He afterwards enrolled
himself as a passenger on the MOsel,
ot dynamite M moty. At the time OF
the explosion, he was fortunately on
shore. some distance from the steamer,
a well AS the internal compound. and
represents tine shock as Perfectly ter
rifle. He WAS fortunate enough to rs
cape serious injury, having only lost
part OF one finger Oh the left hand, hut
was shocked to Inconsistencies for
some half hour. He has finally sue
reeGed in reaching this country in
safety, aud will doubtless hp slow Ia
trusting himself to the tender mprcips
of the Atlantic again, after his recent
experience, which has certainly been
an exciting and fearful one. The
opinion of Mr.. Scharf, who is a very
Intelligent young man, is that the
dynamite scheme was part Of plan
for working injury aud destruction tn
the North German Llnydl line 0fstenm-
ers. He leaves This morning for Bris-
ial, where he has relatives residing

TN RESPONSE TO THE FLATTERlNG

Of Virginia to ill the vacancy occasioned by
the resignation of Captain Fowle, would state
that there is perhaps one within the limits OF
the city or county to whom it would afford NOR
easure or who is more ambitious of the pos
ton than myself l INDUCED the dea that, with
several years experience in Legislative duties,
coupled with high appreciation of thier grave
responsibilities, the opportunity WAS one In
which l coud not only study WE'LL but assist in
such legislation as would promote tha interest
q our Immediate PEG lie, the material develop
nent and growth of the State, but at the same
time enable me to form the acquaintance OF
prominent gentlemen throughout the Common
wealth.
But however much may desire the position,
after mature consideration l am convinced that
an absence of three or four months from my
home and flee would be almost rulnous TO me-
l, therefore, uecline being q candidate.
To those who have given me their confidence
and promise Of support as well as to the many
personal friends who have manifested more than
ordinary zeal in looking forward to my noml'
| ration, am again placed under renewed &c
acknowledgements.
" nen our friends shall have given expression
of their choice, either in convention or by prl-
mary election, let US give their selection al
earnest support. It was only last full, and that
after repeated struggles, that we reclaimed th'
Legislative district. Let us keep it; let US man
