CoNFoUNDING PLACEs.-A letter has
been received here from a gentleman in
Buncombc county, \. c., stating that the
people ofthat county arc greatly eXaspera-
ted over the bombardmcnt of Alexandria,
and that they arc moving in the matter;
they do not intend to stand idly by and see
the old historic city destroyed: that Alex
andria boys and Boncombe boys fought
shoulder to shoulder during the late
war, and that Boncombe does not intend
to prove false TO Alexandria now, in this her
hour of need.
\ man seated on barrel in front of a
suburban grocery this morning was reading
toa gaping crowd of companions the news
OF the hombardment of Alexandria, when up
jumped one Of the number cxcitedly, and cX-
claimed, that's the biggest lie ever put in a
paper; I've Just come from the wharf and
there amt Il ship with cannon On it in the
river"
A Pohck man sends word to friend
here that he turns the scales at 13S pounds,
and he'll be id if he don't intend to stand
by the old town."
The Danville Register says: A citizen
from the country arrived here yesterday to
take the Midland train for Washington
where he had business but in the evening,
after th, bWT "cgi%ier appeared with its
Geographic account Of the bombardment Of
Alexandria, he heard it talked about at the
Arlington for it seems that he didn't read
the paper, and became considerably exer-
clscd about the trouble he thought he would
have in getting to Washington, as he had
been told that he would have to pass through
AlsNandria to get there But on ENDURING
ofa conductor ofthe Midland road he was
assured that there was no stoppage of the
trains on that road and qrlieted down"

Lumbermen Cutting the Key-Log,

The first thing to be done is to find
out where the jam occurred, and then
to discover what is called the "key-
log that is to say, the log which
holds the base of the Jam" An old.
experienced liam driver" is soon ON
the spot, for the news is soon carried
upstream that there is a jam below.
Every minute is of consequence, as
logs are coming down and the jam in
creasing in strength The key y-log"
being found, there is cry for volun-
teers to cut it, Now, when you CON
slider that there are some hundred big
logs Of timber forming a dam, and
the instant the key-log is cut the
whole fabric comes rushing down
with a crash, you will see that, unless
the axman gets instantly away he is
crushed to death. There are usually
in camp plenty of men to volunteer,
for the man who cuts key-log is
looked upon by the rest of the loggers
just as a soldier is by his regiment
when he has done any act of bravery.
The man / saw cut away a log
which brought down the whole jam
was quiet young fellow some 20
years of age. He stripped everything
save his drawers, A strong rope was
placed under his arms, and gang
of smart young fellows held the end.
The man shook hands with his com
rades and quietly walked out on the
logs, Ak in hand, I did not know
what the loggy-road one felt, but l
shall never forget my feelings. The
man was walking quietly to what
might be his death. At any moment
the jam might break of its own ac-
cord, and Also if he cut the logs, un-
less he instantly got out of the way
he would be crushed by the falling
timber.
There was dead silence while the
keen AK was dropped with force and
skill on the pine log. Now the notch
was near half through the log: one OF
two more blows and a crack was heard.
The men got in all the slack of the
rope that held the axman; one more
bow and there was a crash like thun-
der, and down came the wall, to all
appearances on the axman.
Like many others I rushed to help
haul away the poor fellow, but to my
great joy / saw him safe on the bank,
certainly sadly bruised and bleeding
from sundry wounds, but safe The
Field.

cross my mind" Ard he played
lmprovisatOry remembrances Of his
own life melodies from his soul.
1t was as if every thought every
feeling passed through the violin,
and revealed itself to the audience.
The most astounding dcclanitions
resounded through the house. Ole
Bull was called forth again and
again. They still desired a new i'm
provisation. He then addressed
himself to the lady whose mCcking
smile had met him on his appear

one from Moses. " Now. thought

will produce an effect. He did so.
Powerfully as the rod of the magician.
the bow Slided ACROSS the strings,
while cold drops; of perspiration
trickled down his forehead. There
was fever in his blood it was as if
the mind would free itself from the
body; fire shot from his eyes he
felt himself almost swooning yet a
few more bold strokes they were
his last bodily powers.
Flowers and wreaths from the.
charmed multitude huttered about
him, who, exhausted by mental con-
tiict and hunger, was nearly faiat
ing. He went to his home accom-
panied by music. Before the house
sounded the, serenade for the hero of
the evening. who meanwhile crept
up the dark and narrow stair case,
higher and higher, into his poor
garret, where he clutched the water
jug to refresh himself. Vixen all
was silent the landlord came to him,
brought him food and drink, and
gave him better room. The next
day he was informed that the theater
was at his service, and that concert
was to be arranged for him. An in
vitation from the Duke of Tuscany
next followed, and from that moment
name and fame were sounded for Ole
Bull. .--HdnS Christian andersen.

"Fountaine," said Duyal, will you

THANK you, Duval, / will"
So by the light Of a succession of

have no weapons. Suppose we go

HERE was an entertainment at
Laramie few evenings ago, at which
the guests appeared in such costumes
as their taste suggested The follow
ing will give some idea of the occa
sion: MIR. Nye wore Prince Albert
coat with the tails caught back with
red yarn and homemade sunhowers.
He also wore a pair of velvet knee
breeches, which, during the evening.
In an unguarded moment, split up the
side about nine feet. This, together
with the fact that one of his long
black stockings got caught on the top
OF a window cornice, tearing a small
hole in it, letting out the sawdust and
baled hay with which he was made
up, seemed to cast a gloom over the
countenance Of this particular guest
With one large voluptuous calf, and
the other considerably attenuated,
Mr. Nye seemed more or less EN-,
barrassed.

The Wenona fair, which is the great autum
nal celebration for that region, commences
next Monday. Ten annual exhibitions, ey
eryone Of which has been a great success,
have given that fair a reputation which few
Others In the state possess, and the indica.
tions are that the present one is to surpass
any Of Its predecessors. Great improvements
have been made, especially in the buildings,
that they have not heretofore had. The pre-.
miums are also more liberal then ever before
and entries are already being made so liber-
ally as to indicate big show.

The Aurora Beacon says: "Fish Commission
err s. P. McDole on Monday received q letter
from the canal commissioners announcing
that they were now engaged in putting in the
required fishway at the Dayton dam, belonging
to the state, and Mr.. McDole goes down to-
day to investigate the work. The owners OF
all private dams on Fox river and other
streams in this section of the state may as
well make preparations to follow the exam
pie of the canal commissioners without dc.
lay. The FISH commissioners are doing splen-
did service in stocking our streams with the
finest qualities of game and food fish, and In
order to render their work effective they will
insist on the building of the necessary fish.
ways, as provided by law, within 80 days af-
ter they shall have given official notice for
the construction of the same" Now let us
have a law that will positively forbid destruc-
tive sclring. 1t is fully as necessary as the
fshways-mo so, probably. At any rate
there will be no use stocking our streams
and building flshways If the sein is to clean
out the fish as fast as they get too large to
slip through a net. Let the commissioners
present law to the next legislature that will
cover this side Of the question.
