Mother and Child Drowned.
ANOTHER CHILD RESCUED.

ANOTHER CHILD RESCUED.
A special from Covington, Allegheny
county to the Richmond Dispatch, I'M
der date of last Saturday, says
''Mrs. II. w. Anderson and baby were
drowned at Halloway's ford, about two
and one half miles below Covington,
this morning. DR.. Anderson, the coun-
ty physician, was on his way to the
poor house, and as the weather was
pleasant, took his wife and two children
with him in his buggy Just before
reaching the ford, he was told it was
dangerous, as the river was quite high,
but having been accustomed to use the
ford frequently, and knowing it thor
oughly, he did not hesitate.
He struck the ford little too low,
and his horse became a little FESTIVE,
reared, and turned the buggy over, and
threw all four into the water The cur
rent was very swift, and carried Mrs.
Anderson and the children down the
stream very rapidly. A Mr.. Stull, who
was working about one and half miles
below, saw the bodies coming down the
stream, and, mounting his horse, rode
in. His horse stepped on stone and
fell with him. He mounted again, and
rode little further down the river to
some rapids, and seized one of the
bodies as they passed-a little girl
about years old.
The two, mother and baby, the lat
ter about IS months old, were carried
past him, and were not recovered fol-
some time. The child rescued was re-
suscitated, and it is thought all were
alive at that time. DR.. Anderson is in
such daZed condition that he can give
no ineligible account of the affair.
The sympathy of the community il
greatly aroused for him, as only last
week he lost his eldest child from
typhoid fever. and now this terrible
bereavement coming SO soon has caused
all hearts to bleed for him. Mrs. An
derson was daughter of John w. Bell
a prominent miller here"

stonewalI jackson Camp.

On Monday night very interesting meet
ing of the Stonewall Jackson Camp of Con-
federate Veterans was held at their headquar-
tiers.
Preamble and resolutions in honor of the
late Gen. Jubal A Early, prepared by Mai.
Jed Hotchkiss, were unanimously adopted
Maj. Hotchkiss gave very interesting
sketch of the life of Gen. Early from the time
he left West Point Military Academy to the
time of his recent death. His life was an
eventful one and he was brave and distn-
guished soldier in the Indian war with the
Seminoles in the everglades of Florida, the
war in Mexico, and in the war between the
States 1861 to 1865, and as man was equally
distinguished for his honesty and truthful
ness, and his charity to the needy.
Capt. Mccullough, soldier in the gallant
Maryland Line" gave an interesting account
of the services of that body of gallant soldiers
at Winchester and on Culp's Hill at Gettys
burg, the Waterloo OF the Confederacy, where
they fought bravely and suffered so severely
He read extracts from the notes of his diary
made, day after day, during the three days
terrible struggle at Gettysburg, which were
very interesting, and gave an account of the
generous and patriotic manner in which the
Marylanders take care of the disabled Confed-
crate soldiers of their State at Pikesville. Md.

A Cround-hog Killed.

As the End of February was a clear, sum
shiny day, the ground-hog unless blind, could
have had no difficulty in seeing his shadow,
and would, in accordance with the senseless
superstition, have returned to his burrow to
remain six weeks, as the weather for that
period by the grounding sign, would be cold
and stormy; but il seems he did not, for on the
End of March one was out of his burrow in
Spottsylvania county and fell prey to the
dogs of James H. Jackson. Those who know
the ha bits of this innocent animal know that
he comes out, especially of hungry whenever
the weather is favorable, whatever may have
been the character of the weather on the end
of February

A TelI-Tale Letter.
IT PUTS A DEACON IN AN AWKWARD
PLIGHT.

KEswICK, VA, March 6th.-The
pie, seems too insignificant to notice,
has often caused the capture of a
| criminal or detection of 2. plot. AS the
+, following will show: \ few days ago
very respectable colored woman near
! here gave to a very devout colored dea-
con OF her church (who was considered
one of its chief pilars) q letter to take
to friend in Charlottesville. inscrib
ing upon it, by the courtesy of Mr..
H" TIE smiling deacon was happy
to be the bearer of the missive, and
/ slowed it away carefully. as he thought,
in his pocket. The next day Mr.. Isaac
Long, who has recently met with con-
siderable loss by prowling thieves,
sheep killing dogs, ct i'd ge1aus omne,
found the aforesaid letter at his corn
pen. where he missed several barrels of
corn which had been evidently stolen
the night before. 1t was not difficult
to trace the corn to the aforesaid dea-
con, who is not quite SO smiling now.
and by compromise has begged off
from just sentence to prison by the
payment of the value of the corn.
VIRGINIA's ELECTION LAW. The
Walton bill, grating the Australian
ballot system on the Anderson MrCor
m'ck law, which passed fi Virginia
Legislature at its recent session ana
has been approved by Governor OFFER
rail-, is receiving the commentator of
the press of the State, as we'll as most
of the democratic leaders. The new
election law requires that all nomina
lions for political offices shall be made
known to the secretary of the Common
wealth in case of Federal ard State
elections, and to the secretary of cleo
toral boards in county and municipal
elections. There shall be an official
ballot, which must be delivered under
seal to the secretary of the electoral
boards of the State, which shall con-
tain the names of all the candidates.
These shall be distributed to the judges
of the elections at the various precincts,
two being allowed to each registered
voter. All of the ballots shall be &C.
counted for, and if any ale mutilated
or defaced they shall be returned with
proper explanation. The voting shall
take place in booth to be constructed
for the purpose, and no one shall be
permitted to remain within fifty yards
of the said booth except special con-
stable, selected for the purpose, whose
duty it shall be to preserve order, and
when called upon on account of the
illiteracy of the voter to read the same
to him so that he can vote intelligent
ly. After arranging the ballot by run
ming pen through the names of those
he does not desire to vote for. two and
half minutes being allowed each vot
er for the purpose, the voter shall go
Immediately to the ballot box and de-
liver his ballot to one of the judges of
the election, who shall deposit it in
the said ballot box.-Balt5nlore Sun.

Fun for the IMAM in the Moon,

There has not been such fun in the moon
since 'the dog laughed to see the COW jump
over the moon," as there has been during the
past week when the man in the moon has
been shaking his sides with laughter at the
expense OF Hicks, the weather-prophet who
predicted as follows
"a sudden and violent storminess will re-
turn with the new moon about the 18th, last
ing in its eastern progress through the reac-
tionary centers 9Th and 9th. Sharp thunder
rain, and sleet southwark. and heavy snow
NOrthward will result about this time"
The weather has been mild and pleasant
with no violent storminess, - with no ''sharp
thunder, rain and sleet Southwark, and no
"heavy snow Northward"
The man in the MOON" with his thumb
on his nose and his fingers twirling, hooking
ly says to Hicks, 'the new moon came on time,
but where, o where is the violent storminess
that was to return with the new moon about
the 7th."
The 18th was beautiful day, and was fol
lowed by others equally so. As the weather
was too inclement on the 22nd of February
for the pupils of the D. D. and Blind Institu-
ton to enjoy on that day their accustomed
| holiday, and as it was so mild and pleasant
on the 18th of March, the Principal gave them
that day as holiday, and the Goodson Gazette
the Institution paper, thus beautifully de-
scribes it,
| 'Such day as it was for a holiday Sky
almost cloudless, sun shining warm and
bright, the heated air shaking and simmer
ing along the grassy slopes and on the hill
tops honey bees out hunting up any early
flower that might be blooming, black birds
blue-birds fickers and robins all on the wing
There Is no use talking about it. 1t was rare
fine day."
