A Startling Run,Or.
Baltimore Morning Herald.

A startling rumor was widely circulated
yesterday in commercial circles to this eff
feet, that President Garrett, of the Balti-
more & Ohio Railroad, had sold out to q
New York syndicate his interest in the
Baltimore 4 Ohio Railroad, amounting to
some 1000 shares ut $3.50 per share. The
rumOr was given some credence by the late
act of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad in
selling its control of the Virginia Midland
Railroad.
After the most careful search no con-
frmation of the rumor could be obtained
from any source, the officers of the railroad
stoutly denying it.
A cOunter-rumor was also circulated that
negotiations were going on between Mr.
John w. Garrett and certain New York
capitalists to sell them his interest in the
Baltimore & Ohio as soon as the indepcnd-
ent line to New York was definitely laid
out and surveyed. Rumor pointed to Jay
Gould as the probable chief of the New
York syndicate, as that worthy is at pres
ent much in need of through trunk line
to New York from the West to enable him
to successfully compete with his old rival
Vanderbilt, of the New York Central Rail.
road.
1t will be remembered that Immediately
succeeding the confirmation of the purchas
ing of the Philadelphia, Wilmington &
Baltimore Railroad by the Pennsylvania
Railroad, n similar rumor was circulated tC
the effect that u certain New York syndi
cate, whose chief was Gould were nego
tiating for the purchase of all the stock o.
the Baltimore and Ohio and reasons why
the same was impossible was published al
the time.

Shit for Divorce.

Jane L. Huff to-day filed her bill for u
divorce from Joshua O. Huff. The parties
have been residents of the District for more
than twenty years, and were married Sept.
@, 1870. She charges that the defendant is
% habitual drunkard and has frequently
beaten her, and that living with him any
longer is impossible, as she fears for her
life. She charges further that in October,
1880, he kicked her on the arm and perma-
nently disabled her wrist, and that in May,
1881, he, while in fit of intoxication,
kicked over the dinner table and demolished
both crockery and eatables. That on the
21st of June, 1881, defendant assaulted
plaintiff in tho street in front of their resi-
dence, and tore nearly all her clothing off,
and was only prevented from doing her Sc
rious injury by the intervention of the
neighbors. That on the Gath of August
last he threw tin bucket of lard at her
which came near putting at end to her ex-
istence. Numerous other assaults are stated.
The bill concludes with prayers for the dis
solution of the bond of matrimony and an
injunction against defendant from inter-
fering with complainant or her property.

On the Dodder, Near Dublin.

The lovely sky Is seen half bare,
The calm, bright river past us flows
December holds the evening air 81
AS fairest fingers hold Il rose.
So light, so sweet the touch of chill
On clear green mead and winding tide |;
The brown trees on the height are still,
Nor mourn their plumy summer pride.
We feel the quiet, Sunday time
Sink to the heart. Though far away
BE bells that ring the vesper chime
The landscape, restfu', bids TO pray
As the heart prays without the lips
Weak words-evcn rs before our feet
The unrufiled water, dreaming, slips
From CLASSY sheet TO CLASSY sheet.
We know this place. The poplar lone
A tall, dark pillar-but IL CLEANS
by moonlight-the white arch of stone,
The open green between the streams,
The gateway gray-amongst the trees,
That sweep between us ana tine south,
The cascades murmuI on the breeze,
The low bridge mt the brookiecs mouth
We know them all. They show to us
q The dearnoss of dozen years;
Twlned memories multitudinous
or happy smiles, OF bitter tears.
