The case of ]. NJ. Mason VS.. the Harper's
Ferry Bridge Co, pending in the Circuit
Court at our last report, was given to the
jury on Tuesday afternoon last, and on Wed>
nesday a verdict was rendered awarding
Mr.. Mason damages to the amount of s1O,>
600. Tho counsel of the Bridge Company
thercupon moved for a new trial. This was
one of tho most ably argued civil causes
ever tried in our Court, and it being the
first appearance of Holmes Conrad, Esq, of
Winchester, in q case in our courts of such
magnitude, bis closing argument fer tho
plaintiff attracted a large number of audi
tors, and he has made with our people a
reputation, for legal lore and forensic abili-
ty, of a high class. Wm. L. Wilson, Esq,
for the plaintiff, and Hon. W. Fl. Travors,
for tho defence, each made ablo and eloquent
arguments. "A. w. Mcdonald, Esq, for the
plaintiff, and Hon. G.. j. Faulkner, for tho
defence, did not participate in the argus
ments. The motion for a now trial was
ably argued by Hon. W. q. Travors, R. T.
Barton and A. W. Mcdonald, Esq on
Thursday and Friday, and takcn under adj
visemept by the Court.
Judge Faulkner, on Friday, ovorruled tho
motion for a new trial in the case of Thos.
H. Bragg, and sentenced him to tho pen
it%entiary for four years, in accordance with
the verdict of tho jury.
Court adjourned on Saturday, until Wed
mes day of this week.
Lucy, a little daughter of the Row. DR..
w. II. Meade, narrowly escaped o fearful
accident on Friday morning last. She, with
a little brother, was about passing the pump
at Mr.. Goo. II. FIagg's, on Main street,
when the brick pavement gave way beneath
her feet and crumbled into tho woll, pre-.
c'PitatiDg her into the opening, and all that
saved her from going deep Town into its
sixty foot depth wss that as she sank sho
obtained a hold, with one arm, on tho plat
form OF tho pump, and by it was enabled to
climb to the surface again. It is supposed
that tho wall of tho we'll had given way the
night before and carried with it tho support
of the adjacent paving; and that the bricks

How Tacks Are Made.

Described in few words, the process
of making tacks is as follows: The iron,
as received from the rolling mills, is
in sheets from three inches to twelve
inches wide and from three feet to nine
feet in length, the thickness varying,
according to the kind of work into
which it is to be made, from one -eighth
to one thirty-second of an inch. These
sheets are all cut into about three feet
pieces. and by immersion in acid cleaned
of the hard outside flinty scale. They
are then chopped into strips of width
corresponding to the length of the nail
or tack required.
Surprising the tack to be cut is an
eight-ounce carpet-tack, the strip Of
iron, as chopped and ready for the ma
chine, would be about eleven-sixteenths
of an inch thick and three feet long.
The piece is placed firmly in the feed
ing apparatus, and by this arrangement
carried between the knives of the ma
chine.
At each revolution of the balance
wheel the knives cut off small piece
from the end of this plate. The piece
cut off is pointed at one end, and square
for forming the head at the other. 1t
is then carried between two dies by the
action of the knives, and these dies
coming together form the body of the
tack under the head. Enough of the
iron projects beyond the face of the dies
to form the head, and, while held firmly
by them, lever strikes this projecting
piece into round head. This, as we
have said before, is all done during one
revolution of the balance wheel, and the
Lnives, as soon us the tack drops from
the machine, are ready to out off anoth-
er piece. These machines are run at
the rate of about $50 revolutions per
minute. The shoe-nail machine for
Altting headless shoe-nails, are run at
about 500 revolutions per minute, and
'uS from three to five nails at each rev.
Hugion. When we think of the number
II machines being run in the United
states, namely, about ZOO. and of the
Quantity of tacks and nails they can
iroduce, it is as much of a mystery
where they go as it is what becomes of
The pins.
The tack-maker of fifty or sixty wears
sgo worked as follows: He took a small
:od of iron and after beating it in a
charcoal fire, hammered it down so as
20 make a point, then a piece was cut
vi, placed in vice worked byfoot pow.
n, and the head formed by few blows
Il the hammer.

Hasty Chicken.

There are excellent chickens in Car
rara, and but for the haste with which
they are brought from the hen-coop to
the table they would be very good food.
Looking out of the hotel window into
the backyard one sees hen busily en-
gagged with basin of mush. Almost in
ID moment, in the twinkling of an eye,
the living hen is transformed into a
roasted fowl. This may seem fanciful
and unreal, but it is strictly true.
One day, having very limited time
in which to eat a lunch and catch a
train for Leghorn, / asked the waiter of
one OF our hotels if he could give me a
bit of broiled chicken at short notice.
l am very sorry, sir" said he, :. but
we haven't chicken in the house.
However, we have very nice pigeon.
How would you like half pigeonp''
Very well, indeed" replied, "but
can you give it to me quickly?''
Yes, sir, you shall have him in pre-
cisely twenty minutes by the clock.''
"a good pigeon, young, tender and
"See for yourself, SIR" and with
that the waiter led the wav to the
kitchen. "Show the gentleman that

The cook gravely picked up broom

Die, and 10! there came forth my pig

bit OF bread which he had snatched

See what the waiter had promised to
do! He had promised to kill the dove.
pluck him, clean him in cusory wav
and roast him, all in the short space Of
twenty minutes. A pigeon isn't a
chicken, but if it had been a chicken.
the story would have been the same. -

Bachelor Life i'm New York.

New York is the paradise of bache
lors in thsee enlightened days. Up to a
few years ago they had to make out
with hotels and clearinghouse, or
accommodate to the furnished room
plan. Now they can do better. Homes
for bachelors are among the " institu-
tions' of to-day. The unmarried man
need no longer wander disconsolate
about hotel, or poke himself away in
a musty room in boarding or lodging
house. If his purse affords it he can
set up bachelors quarters in good style
in house especially designed for his
class. Four or five handsome houses
of this kind have been built within a
few years, and they seem to pay very
well. They are called apartment houses
for bachelors, and they are arranged
much like French flats, the chief differ
ence being that the number of rooms is
less. In some cases the bachelor s
apartment consists of two rooms, in 9TH
ers of three, and in no case of more than
four. The cost of living in this way Is
considerable, but the life itself is COM
Portable, pleasant and free from care.
The demand for such houses is conse-
quently large.

rhyme for beauty. They will call new

through the dozens and hundreds 81
similar words. Not dictionary in the
English language authorizes this.
In student and stupid the s'u'' has
the same sound as in Cupid, and should
not be pronounced as stoodent and
stoopid, as so many teachers are in the
habit OF sounding them. 10'

sHEzMANAGEs WE'LL THE FARM

She manages well the farm,
This girl that is gently bred,
Though scarce score OF happy years
Have passed DER her bonny head.
Fatherless, mOtherless. young,
Left with a tender brood
OF brothers and sisters small,
She works for the chfldren's good.
So, up in the early morn,
She's out with steadfast will;
She visits the garden, field and farm,
And the orchard upon the hill.
The butter from yellow cream
Is made with her own fair hands;
She works with hearty will to keep
This home with is fertile lands.
Show me a lovelier rose
Than the flush of this maiden's cheek,
As she gathers the apples rosy and ripe,
Or rides the black horse sleek;
Show me fairer sight
Than this same woman's hands,
Busted at daily household tasks,
Aswell as at tilling lands.
What though no fathers eye
See that the works well done;
is not this woman brave and true,
Faithful as shines the sun?
Dressed in her homespun gown,
Living healthful life,
Sowing good seed for aye,
Whether as maid or wife.
She manages well the farm,
This maid with the deep blue eyes;' ~
With voice that charms like music rare,
In her low and soft replies.
Well will those children say
In the distant years to come:
"Sister, you have done well;
You saved us the dear old homer
