A BRAVE BABY.-A mother living
in As6Yille, Alabama, writes an e.
fectiug letter, telling oflhe miraculous
rescue of her little boy, only three years
old, from we'll thirty feet deep that
he fell into. She says on reaching the
we'll she saw HIN rise to the top Of the
water, and had the presence OF mind
to let the bucket down aud tell him to
take hold of it, which he did. She sent
her other three children away to procure
help, but the boy let 90 the bucket from
weakness, and sank again TO his chin.
she lowered the bucket so thathe could
take hold of ring tied on TO the rope
for the purpose of sinking the bucket.
For an hour and a half the child held
on, begging in his baby talk for mamma
to come down and take him out. Hold
on, Baby" and he did so. At length
a lady came 10 her assistance, and
tylnga moose in the end ola rope. told
him what to do. He put his foot
through the moose and drew itaround
his knee. He held on to the bucket
and the women, drew him until within
the reach Of the agoniziug mother.
Safe to her bosom, she clasped hel
shivering baby and praised God fol
HIS mercies. r.1r

CARP IN THE PoTohAC.-Wthln a
few months at least dozen speciments
of the German carp, now being propa
gated at the government fish pjndsr
have been caught in the Potomac nea
Washington. Yesterday Mr.. George
Raub caught fine carp at Four Mile
Run. With the remarkable capacity
of living out Of water, possessed BY this
Gsh it seemed to suffer no inconvenience
from being taken by hand considerable
distance to Mr.. Raub's house, and when
placed in water commenced swimming
about as If nothing had happened. To-
day Mr.. Raub brought it TO the city
wrapped 10 damp cloth, and yet after
It's long journey out of water.it seemed
to be as lively and vigorous as ever. In
fact this fish can live and keep 10 excel
lent condition tor months in mud that
is only moderately damp. 1t IS easily
propagated and raised and is an excel
lent foolish. The indications are that
the carp are increasing, rapidly IN the
Potomac and that the river will soon
swarm with them if they can escape
the perils of the seine and gill-net.-

The New York Hrald published a
lengthy interview which one Of its
Washington correspondents had with
Senator Malone, and 10 which the
Senator repeated his reform as lard down
n the Senate. In substance it is that
he has madsno bargain and has no I'M
ders,andieg with either Of the grea t
parties; that be is looking out for the
interest Of the people Of Virginia; is
opposed to "Dourbonism," whether be
finds 1t in the republican or the demo-
cratic party, aud believes he Is leading
movement that will result in the REDEEM
ption Of the South. The debt question
Che says) is no longer the primary one
with bis parry, but a free aud priceless
BALLOT in the sense that man will not
have to pay to be allowed to vote, as at
present, aud that every man, black OF
white. be allowed TO vote as he pleases,
end have Lis vote counted as be cast it.

when near Ozler. N. NJ, 3S miles

seven males and one female, and
all ofthe other passengers
IFhs following aresthe killed Mrs.

Kansas, and one unknown man.
The remains are now awaiting direc-
tons from their friends. The
wounded will be taken TO Denver
The passenger coach was smashed
to pieces The cause of the acci-
dent is supposed to be owing to the
softening of the ground, caused by
the late heavy rains. The .woun-
ded are Geo. lnman, of Malone,

of Pleasanton, Kansas, rib broken;

The dead lock continued through
last week. The impression is that
it will lie broken this week and
that the Senate will go into exc
cutiye session for The confirmation
of appointments Of the President.
The Democrats appear firm in the
position they haze taken and
evidently hold the advantage. The
Republicans have found that they
have gained nothing. but would
be willing 70 "let &C.," if they
could. 1t now seems probable that
the republicans will pretend TO,
keep up the fight, but that after
attending to important executive
business, the extra session will IN
some way come TO cbse. The
victory, from all present appear
aaces, is with the democrats. g,

LIVING UNDER THE SN0w.-A
young Bohemian couple living
near Glencoe met with a peculiar
experience during the last snow
storm. They were living in a little
shanty under the hill, which was
covered in a drift, and the husband
dug his way out and went over TO
one Of his ne!ghbors. Another storm
coming up he was unable to find
his way back, as nothing of the
house could be seen. 1t was three
days before they could find the
house, which was finally done by
sounding with a pole. They dug
through the DRIFT and found the
young wife as comfortable as could
be expected for girl just married
and her husband gone. A some
what similar experience is related
of an adventure of Gus Drahos and
Herman Klocks. Of West Point,
during the same storm. They
were driving around in the drifts
Just over the county line. and their
surprise may be Imagined when one
Of their horses stepped plump into
the top Of chimney. On proceed
ing to investigate they found a
house under it and family living
in it as snug as you please They
had't seen daylight for week, but
were making the best of the situa-
tion.-FTemont, Io,oa, Herald.
