A City Young Man in Trouble.

A young man in this city started ont last
Saturday evening, with two ladies' and two
Children, to give them 4 ride, and TO visit
some old friends. After making the visi,
they started back, and as they were about
eight miles from home, and it was nearly
sun-set,they took The shortest road for town.
4 colOrcd man went along to show the oath
to the main road. When a fourth of a mile
from the house u bridge was reached, which
SPAWNED q dry %ravine, with steep banks.
The darkey said he had crossed the bridge
with n wagon and team the day before, so
the ladies and children got out of the buggy
and the attempt was made 10 cross. The
bridge was made by placing two logs across
the ravine, and LAYING rails on them. which
were then pihned down. There were a cou-
pie of broken rails at the far end of the
bridge, which hal q rather unsafe appear
ance, but II was too late TO 90 back. and
there was no better crossing TO be found.
The horses had gone more than half wav
across, and the buggy was well on the
bridge, when one horse went through he
tween the rails. The other horse took a
step more, and he, too, went through. but
not In the same place as the first one. The
buggy and driver were left high upon the
bridge, while the horses were both caugb,
in such q manner they could not struggle
hard. They were soon unhItched from the
buggy, and from each other, and seemed to
know that efforts were being made for their
liberation, and were very quiet. The bridge
was soon torn down, the rails removed. and
the horses walked out, unhurt. The escape
was q narrow one, as there was danger of
the horses breaking their legs. The ravine
was so deep they could only get two feet on
the ground at 3 time, which prevented their
making any violent efforts. The ladies did
their share Of work, one holding the horses
while the other helped to remove the rails.
The children, OF course, were badly fright
ened. and their cries soon brought help from
the people In the neighborhood.
