A Woman In Hurry.
On Monday of last week, says the Albany
Argut, there was an 'occurrence on the
Harlem Extension Railroad that Is worth
recounting. About 0 o'clock on the morn
ing of that day a collision a collision be
tween a girl and A train of cars was avoid
ed In a very singular and daring way. The
girl is a school teacher, and she was on her
way to school. The train was from'Chat
ham, on its way to Rutland. Both root
on the trestle-work near Brainard's Sta
tion. The girl stood still, while the alarm
ed engineer whiBtlod down brakes, and
managed to stop the train only when his
engine was within ten feet of the obstruc
tion. The trestle-work is 80 feet high, and
bears only one course of ties and only one
track. " What do you mean, do you want
to be killed?" inquired the engineer.
"No," said the girl, "I am going to
school." " Well, go back until the train
crosses the trestle," said the engineer.
"I can't," said the girl, "I am Into."
"Step aside then," and she stepped asido,
outside the track and on the edge of the
ties. But the space was too narrow ; the
engine's wheels could not clear her ex
panded skirts. Her next plan was to sit
down, with her legs dangling beneath the
ties, but thus the hoops spread all the
widor. Provoking delay for the engineer,
humiliating failure and posture for the
Bchool-marm. "Hold on," said she, " I'll
fix it ;" and then, gathering up her limbs
and her skirts, she stretched herself at full
length upon the outer edge of tho ties,
seized underneath with one hand the string
piece to which the rail is spiked, and coolly
bade the train to pass on 1 In a minute tho
train passed over the prostrate form with
out jar or jolt, and the next instant the
girl was on her foot, hastening toward her
expectant pupils, before whom she was de
termined to be "on time," though she
disarranged a dozen railroad time-tables.
An Old Preacher Gone.
A Washington (D. C.,) paper thus refers
to the death of a well known Methodist
preaober.
"The announcement of the death
of the Rev. Henry Slioer was received with
unaffected sorrow by a large body of
this community, with whom he was from
time to time identified in bis ministerial
capaoity. He was looked upon as the last
leaf of the genuine old fashioned Method
ism of this religion, and was a man void
of all cant and hypocrisy and noted for in
dependence and moral courage. During the
late civil war he was one of a distinguished
few who reoognised the sacrednoss and im
portance of keeping church and State affairs
distinct, and like Sir William Temple, he
had " a prayer made in the fanatio times,
when our servants were of so many differ
ent sects, and composed with the design
that all might join in it, and so as to con
tain what was necessary for any to know,
and to do." ne prayed generally that the
saints might not backslide and that the sin
ners might be converted, but this was not
satisfactory to the military authorities in
Baltimore, where this old champion had
a church, so they Bent him an order on one
bright Sunday, which presented the alter
native of his praying for President Lincoln,
by name, or having his church closed and
his flock driven from their green pastures
and still waters. So he read the provost
marshal's order from the pulpit, and lifting
his hand, put up the following brief but
comprehensive petition :
" ' Lord, have mercy on Abraham Lin
coln.' "
t2T A terrible fight took place recently
between two women in Chili, under the fol
lowing circumstances : One of them, who
had lately given birth to an infant, having
to make a journey to Bancagua, left the
child under the care of a neighbor, who
bad a child of about the same age. A few
days afterward the mother who had gone
on the journey returned home and was told
that her child had died in ber absence. She
insisted that the surviving Infant was hers.
She said she knew the child to be hers, and
was not going to be deceived by the strata
gems of her neighbor. The other called all
the saints in heaven to witness that her
child was the living one and not the dead
one. The dispute finally ended in blows
and the intervention of the police. The
case has gone to the tribunals, and another
question like that decided by King Solomon
is now before the judges of Rancagua.
13F In the proceedings of the Venango
county medical society will be found a brief
reference to a singular case of lutut nalura,
reported from Mercer county, this state.
The patient is a little girl of nine years,
who is not only unable to raise her eye-lids
by 4he usual means, but seems to be totally
blind when the lids are artiflcally raised
with the hand. There appears to be some
defect vt the organs of vision, so that her
eyes are no more assistance to her with her
eye-lids closed than open. But singular
as it may seem, she has the power of vision
In some degree and has it more perfectly
when lier eyes are closed or even bandaged.
At such times she can see or by some
moae akin to aeeing can .distinguish ob
ject at distance, ditlvguih coloiJSvitU
