RUNAWAY URoHINs.
The Sensation They Created on
Passenger Train.

Nashville Banner.
Two boys named Ballard and
Tucker, the former being step-son
of Capt. Ballard, of Jefferson street,
Louisville, arrived in this city at
noon to day under peculiar circum-
stances. They evidently ran away
from home Ballard is about II
years old, and Tucker between II
and I5 years old. They were bound
for Pensacola, to which point Tuck
er has through ticket. Ballard, it
seems, did not have the wherewithal
to purchase a ticket, and rather
than remain behind got his com
panion to lock him up in trunk,
together with his clothes, shot
gun, u pounds of powder, ball and
shot, and a box of matches. They
came through all right to- station
80 miles from Louisville, where, by
some means or other, the young
man in the trunk succeeded in
igniting the matches. His efforts
to put out the flames proving una
vailing, he began to crv for help,
knowing that if the fire reached she
powder the result would be any
thing but pleasant. The baggage
master heard the boys cries and
thought a yentriloquist was aboard.
and was attempting to play trick
upon him. Ballard continued to
cry, and the baggageman becoming
frightened, jumped out of the train.
A brakeman was called, and picking
out the trunk tore the lid off. Bal
lard Immediately poked his head up
and throwing out the matches
sprang out of his prison. Matters
were explained and the conductor
kindly brought the boys Oh to this
city, where he turned them over to
Capt. Yater. The boys are now at
the Workhouse. No doubt the
boys have been reading narrowing
Indian stories in dime novels and
were on their way to Florida to
hunt the willy redskin in his native
forest.

The Late Judge Spofford.

In the louisiana Supreme court
last week, Chief Justice Bermudez
paid an eloquent tribute to the
memory of the late Judge II. III.
Spoford. Among other things he
said:
AS q citizen he was devoted to
this State; he was patriotic and con
slant, sharing her trials and earn
estly working for her redemption
and prosperity; fighting her battles
for self government within legiti-
mate bounds, and for representation
under the law and by the viii of the
peoples representatives in the
halls of the nation. with al unsur-
passed heroism and wonderful self
sacrifice. 1t was in the midst OF q
gigantic and dispropOrtionate con
test for the vindication of those
high prerogstives, and almost at the
moment of victory, that he fell like
the warrior on the battlefield, full
of hope and courage, and happy to
forfeit his life and being II the de
Tense of a question of national mag
nitude.
AS q statesman, he had made 8
profound study of, and was familiar
with the great principles which IN
derlIe the existence of government
among men, and are conservative of
society, aad particularly those which
are the very soul and life of The or
ganic and paramount laws which
govern the Union and the State-a
proper knowledge, appreciation and
application of which is so essential
" necessary for the preservation of
the authority and well being OF our
republican institutions, by q just
definition and description of the
specific orbits within which each
authority has right, respectively
and independently, TO move. so as
not only to avoid cOntrarieties, but
also, and chiefly, so as TO secure
harmony, peace, liberty, and con
sequent happiness to the nation.
As = gentleman, he was cultured,
refined, courteous, captivating, kind,
generous, entertaining-a charm
wherever he went and wherever he
was. His virtues IS q husband, as a
father, as friend,as a believer in the
great truths by which morality Is
taught and regulated in society, are
well known and need no comment.
He affords brilliant example. which
should he followed by the young
men OF the profession, and leaves a
bright and most enyiable memory
which viii ever be cherished by

platform NJ the Academy of Music

shook hands and made theatrical
display of mutual admiration which
would have sickened decent per-

strong enough TO stand spectacle

mediately when southern morals
