I k’n almost feel my hair turn white now when 1 think o' that.” Be was one of the oldest engineers on the Lake Shore road, and was riding me on his engine from Brocton to Dun kirk. “I was on the Buffalo, Corry and Erie road then. It was in 18G9 —Au- gust tho seventeenth. The bit o’track 'twist Mayville and Brocton is about the orookedest an’ steepest stretch there is in the country. It’s ten mile from one place to t’other, but the twists in the road brakes it fourteen. The grade 's 'bout eighty foot t’ tho mile.— The road’s so crooked that it’s a s'an* in' joke ’mong th’ boys that they dasn’t put more’n ten cars in a traiQ or the o"ino ’ll butt the caboose certain.— Tho road runs down into the Pennsyl vania oil country, an’ heaps o’ petrole um is run over it. That night, ’bout 9 o’clock, I was getin’ ready t’ leave th’ summit with a box car, six oil cars, an’ two-passenger cars. Th iatter was full. Th’ box car had two valuable trollin’ horses in it. I got the signal from th’ conductor to go ahead, and started her up. We was under tolera ble headway when I see flames bust out’n one o’ tho oil cars. I whistled down brakes. The passenger car was cut loo3C, an’ the brakes put on. We cut the engine and box car from the burnin’ cars, an’ tbiukin the brakesman’d stop them, I pulled oj slowly down the hill. But pretty son I see I was in a fix. The oil cars wasn’t stopped, an’ they ca ne a tearin’ down the grade after us,au’ fore I could give my engine speed 'nough to git out’n the way, kerboom, they came 'gimt the box car, smashiu one end, and knockin’ the horses an their keep ers flat on the floor. It s a mighty wonder the shock dido t knock the en gine off th’ track, an’ it did give her an’ awful husselin’. Bat she settled down to her work, ’s is she know and wo was bound to have a race for life. “Lord, how them flames roared. Ev ery infernal car was afire now and the heat was ter’blo. I could hear them horses fairly scream with terror. Both th’ keepers dumb up to th’ end of th car next to the engine. I could see by the backlight of the lurnaco that their faces was as white as chalk, an they hollered to me, ‘For Christ s sake, Jack, give her more steam 1’ They didn t know t' I had her pulled wide open, an’ was tearin’ down that eighty foot grade it nearly eighty mile an hour. She went so fast, so help me God, that she quit bumpin’. We shot 'round them curves like a streak of lightnin an’ ev’ry time we’d strike ’t seemed t we must go over. vVheu the oil cars struck us, we made a gap of about ten foot between them and us, and we couldn’t increase it, to save our souls. Poor Jimmy Kecnair was my fireman, lie was crazed for about a minute, when the turnin’ cars hit us and kep so close in our wake. He tried to jump off, but I grabbed him and held him till be cum to himself, and stuck to the old gal like a man. Jimmy got killed by pickin' a young one off the track ahead of au express train, near Corry, a year or two aiterw’d. 110 saved the young one, though. “It was a dark night, and though I felt't the chances was we'd never get to Brocton alive, I couldn’t help but be struck with th’ scene. Here was us a thunderin’ along faster’n any engine ever went in this country afore or since, through woods an' on th’ edge o’ high rocks, expectin' every minute to be burled off the track and mangled out of all knowin’ to us. The horses was Stampin’ about in the box car, neighin' in a way that sounds in my ears yit when I git thinkin’ of this. The keep ers told me afterw’ds that they crouch ed down in a fur corner of the car al most sweltered with the heat, exjectiu’ a grand crash every second, and in dan ger of being trampled to death by the horses. Through the broken end of the car they could see the blazin’ oil tanks of the car a roarin’ dnwnaVer us and t’ seemed t’ th* m, they said as il they was a gainin’ on us evo 7 see-' Call)onu ©lines. ond. Oh, Lord ! what a sight them oil cars was. Thousands and thousands of gallons of oil, with all the combust, iblest parts of it sti’l in it, a burnin’ all at once, an’ rushing down the mountain like a tremenjis meteor, on a night’s dark's pitch ! The blaze was more’n six'.y foot high, and lit up the crooked road and the woods and mountains for mile arouod. The whole heavens was illuminated, and from Brocton they said the sight of this great blaze, a tearin’ along like a demon, now, hid for a second by a cut or a piece of woods, and then leapin’ out ag’in and jumpin’ up t’wards the sky like a huge fountain 0’ firo— why they said 'twas yes’ grand an’ got-guos. The light was so great’t the boys see us a swoopin’ along ahoad o’ the mass of flying flames, 'n they know’d what war np. They knowed there was a race for life agoin’ on down the mountain, an’ they koow’d the chances was agin the ones what was ohased. “Of course the whole thing com menced 'n was over in a good deal less time than I’ve been a tellin’ of it.— When I see the lights of Brocton Junction it struck me all of a sudden ’t the Cincinnati express on the Shore road must be about due there from tho West. I looked at my watch. It ly h.cked ono second of tho express train’s time at Brocton. We’d been thinkin’ all along that to savo ourselves tho switch at tho Junction must be opened t’ let us run in on tho Shore track, where the road was level, and we could git away from the burnin’ cars. The switch, of course, was closed, and now even if the switohman opened it on my signal there was tho danger of orashin’ into the express. T’ add t’ this fearful situation, I see a freight train from the east pulling like tho devil possest to git in inter tho switch at Brocton, out of the way of the due express. “Good God I” says I, “Jimmy, what ’ll we do ?” This all took placo inside of five sec onds. “ ‘Hollar f’r the switch !’ says Jim my. ’That’s our only chance ! ’ “So I whistled for ’em to open the switch. Lo;d, what a shriek that en gine givo 1 Seemed as if 'it knew our chances was slim, an’ its whistle was jest’ odo yell of agony. “ f S’poso they don’t open the switch. Jimmy ?’ said I. Hot as ’twas I could feel the cold sweat stand out on iny ’ forehead, and oozo out all over me. 1 know I was as pale as a sheet, for 1 could feel it. Jimmy’d been nra*iiod jea’ a week afore, an’ I knowed how much he thought of that little woman of his’n. I had a wife and seven chil dren. It was a kinder an ole thing with me, but there wasn’t no spot to me like that little home of mine and its contents. “ *(f they don’t turn the switch, Jack,’ says Jimmy—‘good-bye !’ “lie stuck out his hand ’s I knowed what he mcam,. I ketched hold ’n his hand and we bid each other good bye ! ’N all the time we was sweepin’ like ihe wind toward the station, with the bTazing devil only a few feet behind me. ’N thank God they did turn the switch, and we shot in on the Shore track, tore by the depot, like a rocket, and on through the town, an’ on up the road. We knowed then that the express had beeu warned of our ap proach. Wo soon outstripped the burning ears, they losin’ the momenn lam of the grade. We slowed our brave ole gal up by degrees, and stop ped within a hundred yards of the ex press that lay in the track waitin’ for the upshot of the race. Jimmy 'n me got off, but the uext we kuowed we didn’t know nothing. We fainted dead away and when we came to, wa* both of us heme, sa'e and sound, but ter’bly shook up, now I tell you. “The two boss keepers was both un conscious in the box ear. If they’d a knowed the other dangers wc was in aside from the burnin’ cars, lose me if I don’t think they’d a died. The boss es was bad'y cut up and so unstrung that I guess they never got oyer’t.— After all, our escape from collision with the Shoro express had been more luck than management. The express was a minute late. The engineer see the blaze of the oil ca-s tearing down the mountains, an’ he knowed what the matter was at once. But didn’t calcu" late that we was teariu’ down with any such speed, and lie thought we could get to the depot and out ot the way , ’fore he reached it. He got within a mile of the station ’n see he couldn’t make it, aod stopped and backed away to givo us room. If he’d a been on time —well, it ain’t at all likely I’d bo a telling you of this—’n ther’d a been mere widders and orphins in tho coun try to-day than there is. By bull headed luck the engineer of tho up freight train made his sidin’ in Lino to get out’n our way. “The oil cars was left to burn up of course. They burned three hours, and the express had to lay off till they got through. The luckiest part ot the whole thing was: the brakeupbn at the summit havin’ sense enough to cat off the passenger cars and sfcoij ’em. Sup pose they’d a stayed with, the oil cars ! Thoy’d been on lire in less than a min ute,and as they tore dowm that hill at lightning speed, hundreds of human beings’d ’a been roasted in that quar<- ter of a mile of fire. “I’ve beeu a good while a tellin’ you about the circ’oistance, but how long do you s’pose it was happenin’ ? Well from the time we left Mayville Summit to the time Jimmy ’n me fainit’d beyond Brocton, was jes’ 'lcven minutes and twonty seconds ? I br,d the une vro started, and one of the boys looked at his watch when we dropped. We had run over fifteen miles.” “It seemed strange to me,” I ven tured to remark “that you didn’t jump from your engine as you might have done, at the start.” “What! leave my engine ! I’d as soon think of deserting my wife in trouble as to quit my engine when dif ficulty ahead of her ! I ain’t no brag, but if ever they find old Jack’s engine down the bank or smashed to smither. cens, they’ll find old Jack, or a piece of him, not far away from her.” — - Mike IVahony's Ride, Mike Mahony was an Irishman, ev ery whit; but he was a shrowd Irish man, and obtained more money and cold victuals by his wit than by hard labor. In fact, he was determined to make this country what he had been told it was before he came over the water, a place where a man could live nisy. It happened one day that Mike, who had strayed up into the country, was anxious to reaih a railroad depot. His legs were weary, and though he had partaken of a substantial breakfast from the well-spread table of a able farmer, the idea of traveling six*- teen miles before nightfall, had little charms for a lazy fellow like him. Mike had traveled about a half mile whon he observed a large hand-bill posted on the sign-nost, though not much of a scholar he managed, after spelling the hard words to read s foL lowo : Stolen. —A man, calling him t elf William McClafflin, hired of the sub scriber a gray horse and Concord built wagon, for the purpose 0? going to Keystone and return the same day, but has not been heard from since. Said McClafflin was a small man pockmarked with a rear under his ey. That’s me, said Mike, barrin’ the sea*’, and that’s aisy made. lie jogged along uo the tavern, en, taring with a downcast look and took a seat before the fire. In a few minutes hs heard a whis pering among the ia mates, and felt, that the prospect of a ride was not so bad a3 it might he. Soon the landlord entered and after whispering a few moment,tapped Mike on the shoulder and said,; Where is y good fel low ? iiovso. said Mike looking up. Yes, the horse you hired. Sure, au’ the owner has him. You wouitin’v accuse an honest liishrran of the like of me stea’ing a horse, would you ? You may look like an honest man, but don’t you see that’s an exact de sanction of you ? An what that say, sure ? That you stole a ho’.sa and wagon. Is it me you mane ? Certainly. Take me out of this, by the blessed St. Patrick, and Mike was making fast for the door, when the landlord stepped befote him. No you don’t, said he taking Mike by the collar. Mike began to shed tears, and tried to soften the heart of the landlord. An’ sure you wouldu’t be thj manes of puttin’ a poor fellow to prison. Let me go now and IP. never darken the doors of ycur house again, as sure as my name’s Wliat? asked the landlord. An’ what’s the name ye read on the paper? It’s uo matter—l’m sure he s the chap, said the landlord; don’t you think so? aidressing himself to the crowd who had gathered in tho bar*, room. Yes, was the response. In less than half an hour the land lord’s team was at tho door, and Mike was ordered to get in. Sure, you’ll give a drop of the crolh uro, said Mike, afore ye token rue out into the cold weather. Yes said the landlord, ordering his boy to set out t'ae decanter. Here’s to the health of ye, said Mike an’ may the blessed Virgin, parted ye, and save you from ever bein’ in my sitivation. The liquor was drank and Mike and the landlord started off for the town trom which the borsc had been sto len. Daring the first part of the journey, M’ka was exceedingly taciturn,and the landlord was not disposed to disturb his mediations. They had proceed** ed Bomv, "half dozen miles wheu Mike askod : A. nd what will you get for this job, mhjter ? Twenty-five dollars, perhaps, replied the landlord, Sure an’ ye’ll make better business of it than myself, if ye get that. Yes, I guess so, said the landlord. Mike relansed into silence, and after an hour’s liue they halted in front of a stable, and the landlord sung out to the proprietor ; Here’s the fellow that stole your wagon. This brought out tho stablekeeper end bis ostieis, and the former having thrown Mike’s head back so as to get a fair view of his face, said : This isn’t the man. Isn’t the mar., repeated the aston,. ished landlord. An didn’t l tell ye so, said Mike. Hut U’s fflyself that s obliged to ye for takin’ qig hero, an’ savin’ me trouble of q weary journey on foot. An’ now, imping to tho stablekocper, if ye’ll Ml CALHOUN, GA., SATURDA Y, JULY 28* 1877. me the way to the railroad, it is Mike Mahony that will quick be out of a country where honest men are oncivily thrated The road was pointed out to him and ho trudged off at a rapid pace, while tho landlord, deliberately turning his team around departed amid a shout of laughter inwardly resolved never to ar rest a man for borse stealing again. A Very Proper Prisoner. Her name will go down to posterity aB Mrs. Margaret Jones of Crogham, street, and a bundled years hence it may be related that she made a very profound bow to the oourt and impress ively remarked : “Sir, I am a very proper person, as I shal prove, and I must be treated as a lady.” “Certamly,madam, we are always wil ling to extend the utmost courtesy to tne female sex. Let me observe that you were discovered hanging to a fence last evening—not by the neck, but by your hands. You were calling for Hen ry in a very thick and husky voice, but there was no Henry.” ‘ Did y u ever hear of vertigo, sir ?” she asked, as she stepped back a lit. “I have madam, but it doesn’t make the breath smell of gin.” “Sir, I was attached with vertigo. I am subject to it.” “Are you subject to calling for Hen ry, and to bi.ing and kicking police men ?” “No, sir, I am not; but under the impulse of the moment even the Em* press Engcnm might cry out and strag gle. Why didn’t this officer ask me if I w&Dled to go home ? Why didn’t he escort me home ? Why didn't bo pro cure a landeau and assist me to my res ilience ?” “There are several reasons why, Mrs. Jones. In tho first place you were drunk. In the second plaoe, landeaus don’t go driving arouud town-at two o’clock in the morcing. I know all about your residence—l had the whole crowd he.c ono morning, including your coachman, butler, footman, dairy maids. hostlers, and so on. They are not out yet, and it will be a sort of grand re-union when you walk in.” “Sir, I do now a -Deal this case.” “And I do now a-peal you for thl. y days unless you hand over five dol’ars.” ‘ “1 will send for lawyers, sir.” “ Flease ‘don’t. Please go iu and sit down.” “I never, never will !” A Scene in the Songhanln. A correspondent of the London News, who reached the Turkish camp iu the Soughanlu range early in June, saw the great glacier-like snow beds which weie feeding the mountain torrents, and felt the raw edge of the wind. Every and y for a week there were rain and snow storms, and every morning the camp was covered with a thick sheet of snow. To an ordinary European army, with its baggage and artillery trains, the country around the camp was impassa ble, and the Turkish officers were not surprised that tbe advance of the Rus* sian left wing over the 9purs of the Ararat chain to the south had not beeu more rapid. It was in such a wintry scene as this that the correspondent wit nessed the roll-call in carno, and the public punishment of a pair of military offenders. The battalions were drawn up in columns of companies along the slope outside their tents. Tho report was made in the usual fashion, aud then, just before the sun disappeared over the snowy Sierras toward Erzc* roum, the Imperial salute was rendered. The bands played a long-drawn-out, wailing kind of air—the regimental bu gles sounded a flourish, tbe drums roll* ed, and simultaneously from tho entire nrmv burst the cry, “Long live my Padishah !” while the troops presented arras. This ceremony was repeated limes, ajd then the offenders were marched from their battalions to a point in front of the whole line Each man placed himself on hands and knees, and by him stood a soldier holding a stout stiok about a yard long. On a signal from the commanding officer the hands struck up a lively air,and the men with the sticks commenced belaboring the culprits,keeping time to the music with the greatest regularity. At a distance they had the appearance of men beat* ing dust out of carpets. After each had received about fifty blows on the back the music ceased, and the offend' era returned io the ranks.
