WARSAW. VA. August 2S.-(Speciai)-
Last evening on the steamer Westmore-
land. bound from Fredericksburg to Bal
timore. there was Qulte an exciting
scene. and at one time 1t looked as II
bloodshed was inevitable. Albert Chase
an insolent deck-hand, became involved
in A difficulty with O fellow-worker
when the steamer was twenty-five miles
below Fredericksburg. Mate charles
Rawlings. who was on duty at the time.
rcprimanded Chase, and only at the
point OF the pistol was the latter made
10 surrender and give UP hand-spike
which he held I'm his hand. and with
which ne threatened to kill the first one
who laid nds on him. Mr. Rawlings
summoned his assistance several OF
the deck ha 'ds. and Chase was safely
tied hand M foot a pair Of handouts
we're substituted later. and the rope was
then tied around the handouts and
Chase was tioi 10 an iron post. Nhile
the steamer was getting under way al
Stillman's Wharf the rope was removed
and one or Chase's arms loosencd, the
the object b.irg 10 lock him 10 the post
and IN this way secure him until Balu-
more could be reached.
SEIZED AN AXE.
When Chase was apprised OF what
was going 10 be done he yehemently
rotested, and swore he would die before
ne would submit As soon as his right
arm was released he carled 10 the stern
of the steamer. where he secured an axe
and. stationing himself ia corner. de-
ned the officer and men TO place their
hands upon him. He was followed by
Rawlings and others. The former covered
him with pistol and threatened to
shoot him il he did not surrender. This
ne positively refused 10 do. Just al TINS
1uncture there was intense excitement.
Negro women were screaming at the
TOP OF their voices. and il looked as IL
some one would be killed. The excite
lrent continued for about half an hour,
when Chase. still refusing 10 surrender,
leaped from the stern of the steamer as
she left one OF the lower wharfs ana
made his escape.
The hermitage a brick building be-

SUNSET.
BY GUS MALOY.

The hush of Winter twilight
Is over the chilly earth;
While a silvery crescent hanging
On high, in its new found birth
Looks like jewe,ed sickle
Surrounded By starlets bright
That slowly open their twinkling eyes
As fades the bright daylight.
THEY'RE peepiug to see the sinking
OF the sun. the king Of day;
While the moon doth say,
With each soft ray, -
Gust wait for me,
For go your way
But, he pauseS not in his journey
Far out to the limithless WesI;
He waits a smile,
In ardent vile;
Then fades from view,
And the falling dew
Weeps for the lonely moon.

Still further, learn from this subject
the danger Of false refugees. As soon as
these Shechemites got into the temple
they thought they were safe. They said;
"Berith will take care Of MS. Abimelech
may batter down everything else. DE
cannot batter down this temple where
we are now hid" But very soon they
heard the timbers cracking, and they
were smothered with smoke, and they
miserably died. l suppose every person
in this audience this moment isstepping
into some kind Of refuge. Here you step
in the tower Of good works You say, Il
shall be safe in this refuge. " The bat

Now l learn first from this subject
the folly Of depending upon any one
form of tactics in anything we have to
do for this world or for God. Look over
tho weaponry of olden times-jayelins,
battleaxes, habergeons, and show me a
single weapon with which Abimelech
and his men could have gained such
complete triumph. 1t is no easy thing
to take a temple thus armed. l have
seen house where, during Revolution
ary times, man and his wife kept back
a whole regiment hour after hour, be.
cause they were inside the house and
The assaulting soldiers were outside the
house. Yet here Abimelech and his
army come mp, they surround this tenn
pie, and they capture it without the loss
of single man on the part OF Aoinie'
lech, although l suppose some OF the Ole
Israelitish heroes told Abimelech, "fou
are only going up there to be cut e
pieces" Yet you are willing to TESTIFY
