A Prediction That Is Coming True.

Some years ago a boy named W. J. Sanford, of Alabama, had a singular escape from death. A keg of powder exploded in his arms without serious damage to his person, and it was predicted then that he would either be hung or sent to Congress. Mr. Sanford is now a Democratic candidate for Congress in Alabama, and is certain of election. The other portion of the prophecy may be fulfilled later.
