The Senior Editor of the Fincastle

Irpose of dieting down persons

gged and fasiguing path that has
EN- heretofore used.'' The Editor

THE POWER OF KINDNESS.

Kind words are very precious-yer
they cost little. That is hard heart
which is proof against them, and that is
an unenviable heart, which repents no
for words hastily spoken. We all &C
knowledge that the sick should be adj
dressed in tones of tenderness and sym.
patty: we love to brighten their eye,
and to make their heavy hearts leap:
and we should despise ourselves, If we
laid feathers wait of sorrow upon
their bosoms through our unkindness.
We can be kind tothem, without tren-
ching upon our sel6shness; they are
too week and sorrowful to excite our
envy; they are not our rivals now
the helplessness of suffering humanity
awakens our piry, and true pity is the
sister Of love. Besides, the stiffness Of
the sick chamber subdues our souls, as
we enter it. We feel as though we
were standing on the outer wall ofmor-
talllfe-on the verge of eternity; and
who would entertain unkindness there?
We are there schooled into good beha
v:our.
But amid the driving hustle of busy
l1fe-where man too often meets man
as disguised enemy, and only consid-
ers how he may make most of him
how he may advance his own interests
at the others cost-how seldom is the
gentle spirit of kindness to be found +!
Here and there she dwells within a
favored bosom, but so seldom is she al
lowed to appear in the counting-room
or work shop, that we forget her benlg-
nifty, and the witchery other beauty
A kind word will make frend-en-
NIFTY and malace flee before it,as fiends
before an angel of light. 1t plerces
the heart, without wounding it; and
the memory of it abdes there, as per-
manently as life. We love the oeing
who utters it;though when we looked
upon him but a moment before, We
regarded him as stranger-he is now
a brother. The voice is never sweet
er, than when it is attuned to kind
ness.
Music is its daughter; and when the
affections of the soul are touched by it.,
they give forth vibrations of love, de-
lightful and ravishing. How sad our
lot, how dreary this world were kind
ness utterly unknown. How deep the
gloom, where the sun of love never
shines! where not gentle thought
arises in the anguished mind-where
not sympathizing sound soothes the

A BRUTAL MURDER.
SN1KERs WILLIE, Loudoun Co., Va,
July IA, 1916.

A most inhuman and brutal murder
was committed on Saturday last, near
Union intbis county,by Benz. Rldgway,
npon the person of Joseph Reed-bolh
heads of famiIies-Ridgway a young
man, and reed an old one. If the
fact, be as reported, more high hand-
ed or bloody tragedy was never enac-
ted. Ridgway went to Reeds house
and took his dinner; after dinner left
in company with Reeds son; not long
after be returned alone and called for
more dinner, which was served him.
While eating, he pulled out his knife
and laid it on the table; he then com
menced throwing things across the
room, first the knife WIKI which he
was eating, then loaf Of bread
Reed told him TO stop or leave the,
house. With this he flew into a rage,
and swore he could not force him.
Reed SAID he would get his gun, and
started to an ad )aeent room, apparently
with that design. Ridgway followed;
while in the room Reeds wife heard
scuffie, but no words spoken, and
rushed to the door; she there met her
falling husband, who fell in her Arms.
She eased him to the floor, when he
instantly expired His throat was
cut from ear to ear, a large cash down
the whole side of his face, and a stab
in his bosom. Ridgway Immediately
fled upon commission Of the hendish
act, but so soon as the facts became
known, company followed in pur-
suit, captured him in his fathers house,
and by a Magistrate WAS committed to

This instructive property is very Gu

known that in hot countries, where It's
blood Of horses is heated by the elk
mate, they are in the constant habit s
bleeding each other, and sometimes (
bleeding themselves. This is done b
biting the neck or the shoulder. These
and great variety of interesting fact
in the economy Of nature, prove tina
animals are in possession of facutie
beyond mere instinct, and which the
use to their own advantage, under pc
culiar circumstances. Thus, frien'
Of mine saw fine greyhound, whicl
had been necessarily leased by a small

horse and cat were great friends, AM
the latter generally slept in the man

Creatures who are born of the same

RETURN TO SLAVERY.

The New Orleans Bee contains
story of a fine black fellow, who be-
Ionged to respectable family in the
interior of Louisiana, and was manu-
United, for uniform good conduct, and
certain services rendered. He after
wards sojourned at the North for seve-
raj years, where he lived, as the Bee re-
la,es, without a friend, without means,
and frequently reduced to the brink of
starvation. Tired of this, he managed,
by long-eontiued toll, and rigid self
denial, TO obtain the means of return
ing to Louisiana; and as soon as he
arrived, he called upon his former mas
ter, and entreated to become slave
again. All his "fne dreams of Iiber-
ty," says the Bee, were dispelled by
an acquaintance with its reality.

REPENTANCE OF DESTROYING WEEDS

,s,poRTAYrH OF DESTROYING WEEDS
The abundance in which weeds are
seen in some fields, show conclaslvely
that but little of the mischief caused
by them is understood. Weeds are
injurious to the land and to the crop
in almost every possible way that they
can be. In the first place they e*
haust the soil to support their own USE
less growth, and abstract that nourish'
ment from it that ought 10 go exela'
sively to support the crop. Secendiy'
( they crowd upon other plants above
ground, prevent them from branching
out at their roots, and deprive them OF
free circulation of air necessary fof
their health and vigor, so that shey
shoot up only single, weak, slckly
stalks, incapable of producing vai !.
liable crop. Third, hey throw Oh
from the soil, through their leaves into
The air, an almost incredible quantity
Of moisture, and speedily reduce ne
ground to SO dry state as to be tit faa
weeds only to grow in. So enormous
is the quantity thrown off by soras
: plants, that it actually exceeds moss
than twice its own weight in single
. day. A branch of grass placed, da~
: ring very dry season, under large
, vessel, sent off moisture in two inmates
so as to cover the vessel with drops,
r which run down its side. Dr.. War
. SON, who first performed this expert
: ment, was led to conlude from its re-
, suits that an acre of grass exhales naoss
that thirty hogsheads day. Plants
t are in fact but channels through which
moisture is conveyed up from the soil
n to be dissipated in the air. Hence
the absurdty ofthe opinion that weeds
n VIII prevent the ground becoming dry
by shading it. Let any one in dr.,
: weather examine a piece of perfectly
e bare soil, few inches below the SUIT
: face, and compare its degree of mois'
), ture with that of soil at an equa! depth
" near the roots of a thick growth Of
: weeds, and he will find the difference
If astonishing.
: Now of what use is it to attemp
= raising crops if they are to be wasted
by growth ofweeds' Of what use il
it to buy land, plough it, and prepare
it, and put in the crop, if after all
these crops ore suffered to be eaten VI
by such intruders. If drove of cat
tie should break into a field, no ont
!, would think of resting a moment til
they were driven out; and yet many al
er low myriads of noxious weeds to cove
ar their lands, often doing three-fold NOR
y, mischief. with scarcely an effort II
III check their progress. And this is no
g only permitted in cultivated fields bu
he in meadows and pastures which arr
d. sometimes literally covered with Can
C. ada thistle, St. Johns wort, and man
Sc others, to the total exclusion of ever
IT thing else from the soil.-GenneSse

charged the second barrel at her, the
ball from which took effect under the
night arm, passing upwards through the
lungs, coming out on the left side ofthe
throat, and severing the jugular vein.
She fell tothe floor, bathed in her blood,
exclaiming "you have shot me-" and
at the same moment the wretched man
pointed the pistol at his own heart,
when young Dobbin sprang and caught
his hand, holding it firmly with the
muzzle of the pistol turned down
wards. He was Immediately secured
and taken to prison; and coroner's
jury being summoned, a verdict of
wilful murder was returned against
him.
In the morning David Graham, Esq,
was sent for, and by his advice he re-
fused to answer any questions at the
examination, which was held in the
Temperance Hall, and which was fill
ed with the excited citizens. We
believe the above to be plain state
ment of the facts, but of course there
were thousand rumors ahoat respec-
ting the unhappy occurrence: One is,
that Spencer was her fourth husband
her first having died, and she having
been divorced from too others. One
among the causes assigned for the
commission of this rash act, is that
Mrs. Spencer had refused to accompa-
ny him to the South, and aid in his
mesmeric lectures, by exhibiting her.
self as clalrvoyant subject. The
true cause however, as we have it from
good authority, is jealousy; and we
are informed that the unfortunate man
believed he had good cause to suspect
his wife of in6delity with an impor-
ting merchant of this city. On the
other hand, it is said she was an exem-
p)ary member Of the Baptist Church in
Jersey City, universally respected for
her mild and amiable department.
The deceased was only about %
years of age, and was remarkably
beautiful. A gentleman who crossed
the ferry on Tuesday afternoon, observ-
ed her on board the boat, and was
struck as we'll with her uncommon
beauty, as with her modest, lady-like
department, though he did not know
who she was. He was among the
crowd who thronged to see the MUIR
dered wife, and was shocked beyond
expression to find in the lifeless corpse
covered with her own blood, the beau
tiful woman who on the day previous
had so attracted his attention.
Mr.. Spencer, having refused to an
swer any questions, was yesterday full
ly committed to answer the charge of
murder, and the case will be sent in to
the uext Grand Jury.
