the following statement Of . serious, II not
fatal blow 10 . Chinaman: About 0 O'Clock
yesterday morning the section boss east Of
Carlin had some trouble with his Chinese
laboren on the railroad, and finally struck
one OF the gang on the head with . piece Of
iron, inhicting injuries that will probably
prove fatal. II appears that from some
cause tho men were sullen, and did not
obey orders a. promptly a. the boss
deemed necessary. aud he therefore "went
for them" in the l~iveliest manner. We
hear Of only one Of the hands sustaining
an injury however.

Old T'imrS st the White Sulphur
Springs,

Well do remember how, during my early
childhood, We used to travel to "fhe Springs.
| The family carriage would como TO the door,
and boxes beneath the seats would be packed
with bed and table lincu, towels, napkins and
silver fork a0h spoon iOr each one in tho party.
| immense boxes Of lunch were packed, and cake
| enough baked to last for some time. Then the
trunks were strapped on behind. When this
was accomplished the coachman mounted the
box, the nurse and baby took front scat. my
little self beside her, and father and mother on
the back scat. In those days ladies rarely had
more than six dresses. Olc ball dress was sui
iicicnt and black silk lasted Tor years.
The cottages at the White Sulphur were
pretty much the same as now. Each family
brought their own adornments and the three.
legged dressing tables were dressed in colored
oambrio covered with muslin. There was no
hotel, but rude building, which comprised
dining room, bail room and kitchen. The fare
consisted principally Of mutton which graZ.d
on the hills, and was shot down when needed
for the table Each family had their own ser.
want man, who foragcd for and cooked the
meals, bringing the dishes to the table and act.

son Grey Oils, of Boston, visited the White
Sulphur, no was disgusted as well as Indignant
ct being frustrated every time he attempted to
help himself from dish by being told that it
was private. The price for board 10 those days
was only about IS week. The charm OF
the place was the elegant society. Cottages
were set apart for the President aod dis.
tinguished men, A few weeks ago was told
the following antclote concerning Henry Clay.
After dancing until midnight he proposed that
the ball should wiod up with the Virginia reel.
The music in those days was furnished By
three musicians Jesse Scott aud MS two sons,
from Charlottesville, who p aged on the violin.
Jesse was negro aud his wife an ludan. l we'll
remember them III Charlottesville, where they
lived during my childhood. and where lrc
duenl!y heard how ooc cf the suns became
great dandy. When Nlr. William G. Rivcs
was appointed Minister TO France he took Iom
Scott with him as valet. Tom quickly ac-
uuircd the habits aud appearance OF French
servant, and put On airs whcu he returned to
bis native village and humble home. lie as
sisted bis father III lildDg at parties as the
University in winter aul thc White Sulphur in
summer. When Mr.. Clay requested the lead
er 10 play reel, he vas surprised to find that
he did not know the music. Dir. Clay took the
three musicians to corncr Of the room, Whis'
tied the air unil thcy had caught it, when they
resumed their places, and Mr. Clay led 10 tho
merry dance. Such we're the primitive manners
thirty five years ago.-Letter to the Louisville
