present their claims for public attention
and this time with merits not to be over
looked. =,
During the past week, Deputy Sheriff
Charley Mikus, had overheard mutteres
threats from the prisoners and half s,'s
pected an attempt would be made by then
to escape; In fact one Of them, Dolcini w
believe, on the nth inst. made an attempt I.
strike down his keeper with an improviset
Sung shot, but the blow was avoided by thu
wiley deputy who thereafter gave hi
guests additional attention.
On Friday evening, of last week Mr.
Mikus was away from the Jail for about
half an hour, and on his return at dusk. hi
stole quietly behind the building, hoping te
hear something Of the plans, which he fell
sure they were laying, to escape before the
return Of Sheriff Reinhardt who was in
Glendale At the time. Az he approached
the Jail he. heard noise in the sheriff's
room, which he entered, finding the door
leading to the prison wide open and one
prisoner, a Mr.. Kelly, standing in the Of.

HOW A BOY SAWS WOOD.

No one ever hears q boy complain about
the back breaking, soul-killing hardship Of
wOod-sawing. All such talk is confined to
adults, and it has no real foundation. There
is only one way to saw wood and take con-
fort at the same time, and everybody has
that way. Yesterday afternoon half a cord
of fouT-foot wood was flung down at the
gate OF a house on Second street, and the
wagon had only departed when boy fifteen
wears old appeared with a bucksaw in his
hand. All his actions indicated bis purpose
to go through that wood pile like chain
lightning, but it took him exactly sever min
utes to discover that he had left the saw
buck in the wOOdshed, and Eve minutes
more to bring 1t out.
Some boys would have dropped the saw
buck wherever it happened and pitched right
in, but this boy spent FIVE minutes In select
ing q location of the first water. By this
time he had the presence Of three other boys
to cheer him on 70 victory. These three
boys made the following suggestions:
I'D hire masheen."
"I'd run away and fight Injuns."
'I'd let the old man do il"
But the hero went right ahead with his
move he had stick of wood on the saw
buck. He turned it over four times before
It settled over to his satisfaction, and then
picked up the saw. A buck saw is simple
vet ingenious piece of machinery. Men who
were saving wood by the day have been
known to stand and gaze at the saw for an
hour at time without being able to solve
its mysterious points. This boy picked up
the saw and carefully examined it In the
course Of seven minutes, with the aid Of the
other three boys, he was enabled to discover ::
l. That the teeth were all there.
2. That the framework was of beech.
8. That it was in perfect order, as far as
boy could judge.
When these discoveries had been made,
discussion arose to whether boy could saw
faster by saving left-handed. The vote on
this question was carried in the negative,
and now the moment arrived for action.
The boy spit on his hands.
He removed his coat.
He bumped up his back.
He pulled his cap over his ears.
He bad his knee on the stick and saw In
hand, when little three-eent dog down on
the next corner ran out at passing goat
The goat rushed into yard and girl was
heard screaming. The saw fell to the ground,
the saw-Ouck was upset, and the boy went
tearing down to the corner ike chea p
whirlWind, and when darkness began to set
tie down over the face Of the earth he re-
turned to carry the saw and buck to the
woodShed for the night. .-EE.

THE FIRST DEAD REBEL.
THE BEARDLEss BOY WHO FELL IN THE BAT
TILE OF BIG BETHEL.


TIE OF BIG BETHEL.
The first soldier who died while in the ser
vice of the Southern States, says S. r.
Wright in the Richmond Dispatch, was
tailor from Augusta, Ca, who died in April,
1861, and the first soldier killed in battle
was a beardless boy not twenty years old,
from North Carolina, in May, 1861. This
was the first blood shed in the Southern
cause. There were two First Georgia regi-
ments which went to the war in April, 1851
the FIRST Regulars, who were sent to Sa-
vannah and the First Volunteers, who were
ordered to Pensacola under Colonel Ramsey,
from Augusta. There were two companies
from Augusta, Ca, IN this regiment-one of
boys Just from school, and one of older citi-
zens of Augusta In the latter company
was a tailor, who in frolic caught and put
in his bosom a garter, or, as sometimes
called, a thunder-and-lightnin snake
There is a variety of this species of serpent
some whose bite is deadly, and others who
are not at all poisonous. The soldiers made
q mistake, as there is but very little differ
ence in their looks. Whilst going around
with the snake In his bosom a crowd of his
fellow-soldiers gathered around, and in a
spirit of bravado he took out and provoked
the reptile until it bit him on the back of his
hand, from which he died very soon. The
snake was killed, taken to Augusta and pre-
served in alcohol. Being in that city few
months afterwards saw the reptile, which
was two feet long and about the size of a
child's finger. All the members of the First
Georgia Regiment will recoIlect this circum-
stance.
The first soldier killed in battle on the
Southern side was at Big Bethel Church,
about fifty miles from Gut Town, Va. Ben
iamin Butler had landed the first Yankee
troops in Virginia in 1861, and was met by a
Virginia regiment at the church named,-
General Wadsworth, of Connecticut, was in
immediate command, and upon seeing the
Southern troops advancing on him jumped
upon log, waved his sword over his head
and ordered bis men to fire. They did so,
and the North Carolina boy, who was a vol
unteer in the Virginia regiment, fell dead,
the only one killed on our side. Immediate
ly our men returned the fire, shooting the
General from the log, and his soldiers left
the battlefield. These two men, one on
each side, was the first blood shed in the
war, except the men of the Massachusetts
regiment who were killed by a mob in Bal
timore, Md. 1 was with my regiment in
July, 1861, and visited the cemetery in Rich
mond, Va, and stood over the grave, at the
head of which was a board bearing this in
scription Cthe name 1 have forgotten) ;
From North Carolina, the First Soldier
Killed in the War Between the North and
South" Any of the older soldiers of the
Sixteenth Georgia Regiment will recOllect
the circumstances of this, the first battle Of
the war.

THIRD STREET BRIDGE.


Meeting OF the Levy Courts Committee
To-day to Consider the New Bridge
Across the Christiana-The Matter Again
Postponed.
The Bridge Committee of the Levy Court
held meeting this morning in the ante
room Of that body The members present
were Messrs. Silver (aeting chairman in Col.
Febiger's absenee,) Eliason, Bright, Sharp
less, Mahaffy and Wier. Among others
present weere Charles Warner, representing
the p, w. q B. Railroad Company; Captain
w. N. Smith, and David Conwell the Balti-
more & Ohio and Delaware Western; Messrs
Sellers and Regraw the Edge Moor Iron
Company; d. Lunt and others the King
Iron Company of Ohio, and Philip Quigley
and Col. Enoch Moore, Jr.
Acting Chairman Silver asked Mr. Moore
ff he had made an examination of the bridge
and in his opinion how long the old bridge
at Third street could be made to last by re-
pairs and what the cost would be. To this
Mr.. Moore replied that he had examined the
bridge and that it would need two new cords
and numerous other Improvements. 1t
could be repaired SO as to last about three
years, at cost of 5000 or $1,000. 1t
would need continuous repairs, however.
Repairs to keep it in use during the building
of the new bridge, would require it to be off
about three weeks. The bridge as it was
would last from 30 to 60 days without
trouble.
Mr.. Moore said he did not intend any
underhand busines, but would state to the
gentlemen that the placing of the bridge at
Fourth street would greatly injure the p.
w. d B. property.
Captain Smith, for the B. & O., said he
wanted a combined bridge at Fourth street
and would like action postponed until the
return OF Mr.. Garrett from his trip from the
West.
Mr.. Warner also desired postponement
for month or so until Colonel Febiger re-
turned from his West Indian trip, and he
would be In better condition to make
proposition.
The talk then drifted to the kind of
bridge it would be better to build. In
answer to o question from Mr.. Silver Mr.
fegram said 1t would be necessary to have
width of IL or IA feet for cars. A bridge
with track for cars and a passage way for
carriage travel should be at least 33 feet
wide. Being questioned with reference TO
theeost he said he could give no exact esti-
mate.
The committee then turned its attention
to the time the bridge would have to
be off.
Suppose, Mr.. Hellers," said Mr.. Silver,
that the new bridge was built upon the
site of the old one, how long would it have
TO be oHP
"There would be another suspension of
from four to six weeks for carriage travel,
but foot passengers could be passed over
nearly all the time"
The committee then went into secret ses-
sion, and had consultation with Mr.. Sellers
as to cost, etc. 1t finally adjourned, having
concluded to give the railroad Representatives
the time they asked for. and will meet on
the matter again on June 23, at 10 O'Clock.
The committee will meet on Thursday to
consider the Christiana bridge.

Mitchell, Charles s. Wolfe, Major Merriek

begins to loom up as one ofthe most popular
candidates for the fret place on the nde-
pendent ticket, though 1t is simply impossi-
BILE at this time TO give even reasonably fair
guess as to who will be the choice Of the
convention for that position. The two
