Washington city, f< r Wesley Chapel. It
was quarterly n.eetiiig. The preacher had
vlosed hi* council, when there arose at the |
desk, a slender spare man, about five feot t
eight, dark complexion, black hair falling 1
carelessly over his high forehead, loan bonv '

The bu<y gionp of industrious laborers, \v!io ; fi
had been engaged in blackleading the'rails j "
\ oS the ways with brushes and paint pots, : ji
began to diminish, A few were left, seat- i
j tering masses of powdered blaeklead, like
! sand. At length these retired. All seeini
cd ready ; but two men remained, one o i
' each way, standing near a ropo ladder, bv j
i means of which they might escape into (lie |
ship as soon as the era die .should reach the j
, water. A young gentleman took his place!
on a high platform,elected near the after- j
] part of tlie shin, with his theodolite dulv I
; placed, lo mmk the motion of the ship. J
j The tide is rushing in, but it lias yet only j
j covered half the slope of the ways. The ;
j shout is heard "she moves I" and to she
: does?the afterpart faster, however, than
i thu t'oie. ller speed is instantly checked,
I and she is still.
Now, each anxious spectator congratuj
lates his neighbor. She glides beautifully
! down?she is under control; surely all is
| well, and the attempt to be, u triumphant li
I success. Alas, soo'i the rumor is passed n- v
long that the motion was premature??that
it has been checked by h sad accident. Ad c
