"tell us what the ravens say" He reaches
the first meeting with Brynhild and tells OF
her as his wife. Gunter Is dismayed that his
bride has already been the spouse OF his
friend. Hagen steps behind Sicgfried and
plunges a spear in his body. He falls to
the floor, opens his eyes. fancies himself in
the act Of awakening Brynhild from her
long sleep, and dies. Hagen claims the
ring, and fight ensues between him and
Gunter, in which Gunter is killed. Bryn-
hid now appears and knows the situation.
She takes the ring from her dead lovers
hand, saving, 81 claim my inheritance"
At her call huge funeral pile is erected
upon the banks Of the Rhine and Siegfried's
body placed upon it. As the flames rise
above his form, mounting toward the sky,
she delivers an oration dark and vengeful
toward her destroyers, yet full OF reflec-
tions on the misery brought into the world
by the ring. Turning to Gutrun, she says:
"Peace, wretched woman; his lawful
wife thou hast never been. His real wife
saw thee" The Stecd Of the Walkyren is
then led to her; she mounts upon its back,
and with one wild leap springs upon the
burning pyrc. The smoke and flame rise
higher and higher toward the heavens, con-
suming the reiinited pair. The Rhine over
flows its banks and cXtinguishes the burn

1t is the effect produced by the contlagra-
ton OF Walhalla with Wotan and all the

A CoNvICr's CoMrLAINT.-John J. Ded-
man, white man, was brought to Rich
mond on Friday by the sheriff OF Mecklen-
burg to be placed in the penitentiary for
three years for house-breaking. He had
been confined, during the period Of his COM
mitment and his conviction, in the county
Jail of Charlotte, where all Of the prisoners
of Mecklenburg are now confined. When
Dedman got to the penitentiary he thanked
God that at last he had gotten where he
could get something fit for human being
to eat. He gave heartrending accounts OF
the treatment of prisoners in the Charlotte
county Jail, and among other things said that
q poor lunatic in the Jail was often left with
out water until he cried out Of thirst. The
statement Of the convict, il published in full,
would create quite a sensation, but we for,
bear any further mention until the whole
affair is examined into. The sheriff Of
Mecklenburg. we learn, intends to report
the case to the judge Of his county.

WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, !
August Q, 1876.

TIE ALARM OF FIRE on SATURDAY MORN
ING AND IT'S CONsEQUENCEs.-On Saturday
morning at a quarter past O'Clock the fire
signal from Mcssrs. William e. Tanner Il
Co.'s foundry was sounded upon the gong
at the central office OF the Automatic Tcle-
graph Company, and the morning operator
quickly struck the nearest box to Messrs.
Tanner & Co.'s shop-which was Station
25-by means Of q key connected with the
city fire-alarm telegraph. The alarm was
recorded instantly upon all the gongs in the
engine-houses and police-stations in the
city Just as though Box 25 had really been
"pulled in" The firemen of course turned
out with all speed, and in four or five min
utes several steamers were upon the ground,
but the men could find no fire. 1t remains
to be ascertained how the alarm was occa-
stoned. The gentlemen at Messrs. Tanner
& Co.'s Office state that the automatic box
had not been used for any purpose that
morning, and they are ut a loss to account
for the signal being recorded 1t the main
office; but there it is as plain as possible,
and, in the Judgment OF the Superintendent,
there can be no doubt about the correctness
OF its reading. -.,t..
About the time Of the fire DR.. Ross
horse, hitchcd to his buggy, was standing
at the Doctors ofIice-door, near the corner
of Seventh and Franklin streets. From
some cause Git is supposed the fire apparatus
scared him) the horse ran away down Sew
enth street, upset the buggy once or twice,
and when near the corner of Eighth and
Main streets ran into dray, and was stop
ped. The buggy was not badly damaged.
The most serious result of the alarm,
however, remains to be told. While Mr.. j..
o. Goode, engineer OF Company AS
steamer on Broad street, was assisting in
hitching one OF the horses to the steamer
the restless animal trod on Mr.. Goodies foot
and mashed it very badly, breaking the
skin under the ball of the foot, and, it is
feared, injuring the bone. Hewent Oh with
the engine, however, but on his return
found about half pint Of blood in his boot
and the foot so much hurt that he had to call
in physician.
