PaNf,a Crawford.

WYTHEyILLE, Va, September 7, 1877.
Dear Sir,-Yours OF the 9th instant re-
ceiyed. K. G. Crawford was tried for bur-
glary in the Circuit Court OF this county,
with one Il. c. Clifford, and was sentenced
to five years. Imprisonment in the peniten-
tiary OF this State on the 10th day OF Octo-
ber, 1856. The burglary was committed ut
the Wytheville Hotel, then kept by Colonel
Thomas j. Boyd, and the person from
whom the money was stolen was toione!
Albert &. Pendleton, formerly clerk OF
Smyth county. 1t seems that Colonel
Pendleton was lodging in room OF the
hotel adjacent or near to that occupied
by Crawford and Clifford. Sometime in
the night, after he had retired, the door
OF his room was unlocked by these men
by means OF an instrument which they had
procured to be made by blacksmith OF the
town, representing to him that they were
piano-tuners and that the instrument was
to be used for that purpose. The money
was stolen from Colonel Pendleton's panta-
looms, but the Colonel happened to be sleep
ing with one eye open, and after the burg
lars had retired he quietly stepped out, and,
obtaining assistance, entered their room,
and after searching some time found the
stolen money in Crawford's trunk. The
greater part OF it was counterfeit, hay
ing been deposited with the Colonel
as clerk OF the court Of Smyth county.
They were both conveyed to the peniten-
tiary and lodged therein; but short time
afterwards Crawford made his escape.
There are rumors here that he made his
way to Kentucky, and for some felony COM
mitted there was again confined in the pen
itentiary OF that State. and made his second
escape. OF this am not certain. next
turned up in Mexico; figured there as an
officer, and, in the late war between the
States, it is said that he held position in
the Federal army. Since the war gentle
man OF Richmond, Va, wrote to this place
for a copy of the trial, stating that Craw-
ford was about etrecting a marriage with
young lady OF respectable family near ihil-
adelphia or Baltimore. Whether be did so
or not, and what became Of him afterwards,
I am unable to state. Yours truly, =
WILLIAM 3. FOSTER.

LOCAL MATTERS.

RADwAY ALLOWED THE HOMESTEAD
AGAINST THE. JUDGMENTS OF THE FATHER
OF THE MITCHELL GIRLs.-Judge Hughes
on Saturday, in the case OF G. L. Radway,
bankrupt, decided that RadWay was entitled
to his homestead exemption as against the
judgments entered in the Circuit Court OF
the city of Richmond in favor OF James
Mitchell. Mitchell is the father Of the girls
whose names were some time ago connected
with Railways in several legal and illegal
proceedings, and the judgments he obtained
were in the form Of damages FOR misdeeds.
Soon after the exposure Radway announced
his purpose to remove to Texas. He
claimed his homestead before the iudg-
ments were obtained. III ..
The principal questions involved were:
"Is the homestead exemption good
against tort? and can person entitled to
the exemption who contempIates removing
from the State receive it without giving
bond for its return when his right to it
ceases, OF without it being invested under
the direction Of the Court?"
Judge Hughes decided that "the bank
rupt is entitled to the exemption claimed
by him, and doth adiudge, order. and de-
cree that Register Thomas S. Atkins do in
quire what amount will be realized appllca-
bic to the said exemptions from the notes
OF J. N. Wilkinson in she proceedings men,
toned, after allowing for all proper deduc-
tions and offsets, and IL the same be not
sufficient to satisfy the said exemptions,
then what is the interest OF the bankrupt
surrendered in the house and lot on Leigh
street, and also what is the value OF the lot
on Clay street sold by the bankrupt to e.
W. Marable, which last is claimed to be
subject to the judgment-liens OF the Mitch
ellis against the bankrupt, and that he make
report to the Court, with view to proper
order defining the exemptions to be allowed
the bankrupt"
The above is an extract from the order
entered by Judge Hughes. His opinion he
will hereafter write out and file.

William Kneale, OF Rochester, enlisted in
1861 in the Twenty-seventh New York
regiment, and subsequently joined the Six
teenth New York cavalry. In 1868 he mar
ried Miss johnson while he was home on
furlough, and in the following year he di-
rected her to join him in Washington. She
was taken i'll and died in one OF the hospi-
tails. Her baby. who was then several
months old, had been cared for by the fam
ily with whom she bad been staying. and
after her death they proposed to the
father that they should keep the child.
AS he was on duty In the army, he
gladly accepted their offer. When the war
was over he wrcse to the family regarding
the bow, but received no reply. He mar
ied again several years ago, but no other
children came into his home, and he mourn
ed the loss OF his only son. Soon after the
bow was left in the keeping OF the KIND
hearted family they removed from the city,
and he passed into other bands, Afterwards
finding his way into tie Soldiers and Sail :
ors' Orphan Home The strange fate that
separated father and son tor thirteen years
has at last brought them together. A letter
from gentleman In Washington to the
Mayor OF Rochester and few chance para
graphs in the newspapers have restored liz

phosphorcscent Splendors.

From the Tedesco Rocks on the outer
point at Swampscott, Mass, Friday night,
there was q scene OF awful sublimlty. A
heavy surf during the day bad been rolling
in upon the beach and breaking with mag
nifcent effect upon the rocks, while the
broad eXpanse OF the ocean was white with
the foam Of a million caps which were
dashed into spray by the gale. AS night
came on and deepened the wonderful phos-
phorescent light, far more brilliant than
ANYTHING ever seen upon our shores, was
displayed in pageant OF indescribable
beauty. As far rs the eye could reach
along this rocky coast the breaking SURF
,was turned to molten silver, and then to
deepest emcral, and then to the minute
sparkling fires one sees flashing from cor
onct OF diamonds in artificial light. 1t was
a sea OF glittering gems. The crest OF
every wave was a line OF massive silver,
and the seething waters, changing from
palest blue to most brilliant green, emitted
a light which cleaned upon rock and grass,
and was reflected upon the clouds above.
At midnight, at the full tide, the splendor
of the scene was beyond words. wave
after wave broke upon the line of rocks,
showing a wall of colored fires, forty, and
at times even fifty, feet in height. The
ocean seemed aflame. The crest OF every
wave was coruscation OF gems sparkling
with more than rainbow hues. The inten-
sitv OF color, all luminous with phospho-
resent fire, was far more wonderful than
that produced by any mechanical chemistry.
Footprints OF silver in the sand; hand
fuls OF diamonds for the grasping, and
although so fleeting, they will remain a
possession forever. Standing thus In the
darkness and loneliness Of midnight, Mt
the edge OF the vast, turbulent ocean
OF light, with the cleaning splendor OF ad-
vancing and retreating waves, the vision
OF the apocalypse was for the time made
real. In Imagination it was city garnished
with all manner OF precious stones-iaSpar,
and emerald, and hrysolite-and the streets
were Of pure silver, Is 1t were, transparent
glass. And l saw no temple therein, for the
Lord God Almighty was the temple OF it..
And the city had no need OF the sun, neither
OF the moon, to shine in it, for the glory OF
God did tighten it. 1t was an experience OF
lifetime. After wide travel over the
globe, and with many opportunities of view
Ing natural phenomena and the wonderful
works OF God, we have never seen anything
to parallel the phosphorescent splendors
which for hours were flashing to us out OF
the darkness.-Boston Transcript. .--~--~

RATS AND FERRETs.-M C. E. Ashburner,
of Henrico, has imported some ferrets and
introduced them upon his farm for the pur-
pose Of clearing it OF rats, which have been
very destructive, as well as annoying. The
ferret Is the deadly enemy OF the rat, and
gives him no rest. He pursues the rat in all
bis windings and, selling him, brings him
out dead. This little animal is OF the
weazel species, and is himself destructive
when allowed to run where he inclines to 60.
He Is bent on rat-killing, but il left to pur-
sue his vocation be will carry destruction to
the chicken-coop. So he has to be held in
confinement, and only allowed 'ield.day
~ hen set upon the rats, which he Is sure to
disnoss OF, killing or frightening to parts
Unknown. He is much used in England for
nroteetion against rats. BE has long,
small body, and can follow rats easily. Ae

Corn AND FLOUR REXCHANGE.-Sl.10, SLID,
81. On, S1.25, S1.30, $1.33, S1.35, S1.40, SLAP,
SLAB, S1.45, $1.47, $1.4S, S1.50. S1.52, $1.53,
Sl.55, and S1.6O. These are the prices re-
presenting eighteen different grades at
which wheat was sold on Saturday, and
then there was P. T., form OF quotations
OF which the Turks and Russians on
'Change equally avail themselves, to the
great discomfort and disgust OF the inquisl.
tive ones, the great relief OF those who get
"stuck" and desire to hide their di.
minished heads, and the protection OF peo-
pie who pay big price, but who do not
like to reveal it lest all the Exchange should
know it, and knowing it should demand it.
The offerings OF wheat on 'Change on
Saturday were 1906 bushels, against 6,99s
bushels on the corresponding date OF last
wear. Sales were 7,016 bushels, as near as
the secretary could come to it, for there are
some people yet on 'Chanse who fail to re-
port their transactions. The market on
Saturday was lively and animated, and
Fultz, like the Turks at Pleyna, bravely
held its own. Be it known that the Turks
on 'Change are those who bet on a long war
and advancing prices, and the Russians are
those who bet on 4 short war and moderate
prices.
Corn was in moderate supply and good de-
mand, and, if anything, shade firmer than
on the preceding day.
Oats were about the same as on the pre-
ceding day.
Some -four was sold, but the seller, with
the shrewdness and reticence characteristic
Of the place OF his nativity, said "P. T."
