A telegraph Prodigy.

There is a little boy in knee breeches and
colored stockings at Hanover G.. H. Sta
ton, on the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway,
who is probably the youngest telegraph
operator on that line or any other in this
country. He is only nine years old, his
name is Beverly Dahney Benson and he is
the son of Mr.. Jas. s. Benson, the agent
Charlottesville. Beverly is a skillful ope
rator and reads messages from the wire as
readily by the sound as his father can.
Our reporter was sitting in the Office
few nights ago and had not noticed that
the little fellow had been left in charge
for while by his father. He was perched
on high desk playing drafts with com
panion while the machine was ticking
away with its unmeaning catter to the
uninitiated, when all at once the boy ex-
claimed, "hold on they are calling me-"
jumped down from his perch. ran to his
seat and in a jiffy had written out the
message. laid it aside for his father and
resumed his game.
Not long since he was sitting idly in the
Office. and his father was reading a news
paper, while the machine clicked with the
news that was going over the wires, when
suddenly he exclaimed: "There's mes
sage going wrong, 1t ought to come here,
it is for Jno. S. Taylor and they are send
ing it to Hanover Junction !" and so it
turned out. It was not long before the
message was sent back to MIR. Taylor who
lived in the neighborhood of the court
house. BeverIy's skill is all the more re-
markable when it is known that it has not
been more than year since he took the
thing up having first recognized the call of
a station below. He then commenced
learning of his own accord and was very
much in the way at first, and though re-
ceiving but little encouragement from his
father persevered and rapidly acquired the
difficult art. So that now but for his ten
Ger years and probably immature judg-
ment, he is competent to manage an Of
fee. The boy will make his mark it he
lives.

the British appeared in the-bay. Du.
ring the subsequent engagement the
flag floated over the fort and was seen
by Key while confined in the British

ar-Spangled Banner is row one of the
treasures of the Sanderson family. The
State of Maryland has mace several un-
successful efforts to buy tie flag, but
