While on my way to Bath, a ship
carpenter got on the train at Portland
and sat down beside me. Pretty soon,
after an off-hand remark about the
weather, he said:
"Does this car run right through to
Bath?''

did, but l never was on this road be-

his accent and his confession of ig-

The NewsbOy's Mistake.

A NEwsBoY leaned against lamp
post, shivering. The stump of a cigar
smoldered in his mouth, and bundle
of afternoon papers hung over his arm.
His flat stomach was bursting with
emptiness. His prototype can be found
on any corner, or lodging behind al
most any ash-barrel. He was DELHI
Grating over the chances OF gallery
seat in the Bowery, when kindly old
gentleman approached and bought
paper. The kindly old gentleman had
nothing smaller than tive-cent piece;
and when he handed over the cash, the
newsboy, instead of lodging around
the corner, deliberately offered him the
change. This act of honesty touched
the old gentleman's heart, and, with
fearful eyes, he refused to take the
change, and told the newsboy to call
upon him next day. Overlooking the
fact that the kindly old gentleman Of
flee was something more than two
miles down Broadway, the newsboy
called next day, and was duly present:
ed with eight dollars " for his honesty"
The question of theater- tickets, cigars,
cakes and knicknacks on the one side,
and good warm coat on the other
side, was decided in favor of the coat,
and in lightning-express time the eight
dollars was transformed into a stylish
ulster. Again the newsboy leaned
against the lamp-post, but again no
plethoric philanthropist came to his
rescue. A newsboy in an ulster was
"too thin.'' His business was ruined.
The principal facts in this brief biog-
raphy were furnished to the Times by
the newsboy himself, and they are thus
beyond contradiction; and the story is
warning to all Woodworking news
boys not to be deluded into stylish
listers by generous old capitalists, to
the ruination of their business.-N. r.

custom, and to make it permanent they
have presented to the society United

killed because he was of that church.
This statement has gone out to the CO.,
200 subscribers of that paper, and by
most of Its readers will be regarded as
true. Moreover, 1t is connected with
other outrages charged in that paper es
having frequently occurred in the South
Outrages Of southern whites upon the
poor blacks. So many instances
OF this sort have been reported in North
,ern Journals that it has come to be gener-
ally believed that there must be most
deplorable state Of oppression and crime
existing in the South, and the facts
ought to be known for the peace of the
country and the truth of history. From
the Rev. Thomas III. Howard, perfect
2 " trustworthy and pure-minded gentle
man, living in Brinkley, the following
ntatement has been received. The Rev.
Mr.. Todd came to Brinkley and remain
ed there, with other ministers of his
church, preaching without, molestation
until the officers of the law suspected bis
identity with wife-murderer, and ar
rested him for an investigation. An at
tempt ON his part to escape led to his be-
ing shot. His wounds were carefully
dressed by resident physician, and he
was nursed until supposed to be well
enough for travelling, when he went to
the hotel, preparatory to leaving town
on the train. just prior to the arrival oi
the train, he walked out Of his room and
