Distressing Occurrence. The Phil
adelphia Post of the 25'h inst. says
On Saturday afternoon last, lady of
this city obtained a quantity of lauda-
mum, for the purpose of applying ii as
an embrocatlon, to relieve a severe
pain in the breast, the vial containing
which she placed upon the mantel-
piece in her sleeping apartment. In
her absence the vial was obtained by
the eldest child, l:ttle girl of about 6
years of age, who after removing the
vial, emp'ied it into a fancy cup, swee'
tened it, and then administered por-
ton oft to a sister, two years younger
than herself, after which she harmless
ly supped the balance until j: was gone.
The mother had been in the habit of
giving drops to her infant, and it was
thought the child was induced to par
take of the drug from the fact of having
seen her mother give drops to her in
FAINT sister. This occurred late on Sa-
turday afternoon. The children retired
to bed, as usual, but at an early hour
on Sunday morning, The father was a.
wakened by the eldest child making a
strange noise, and upon proceeding to
the bed where the children were lying,
he found all his efforts to awaken them
in vain. He called his wife to his as
sistance, and endeavored to ascertain
the cause, not less other apparent suf
fering, than their strange letbargy,
which was, however, to her equally un-
known, until she beihougkt herself of
the drug she had deposited in the room
the afternoon previous. After short
search the empty vial was found, and
the truth thus made apparent. The ia
mily physician was called in, and
promptly applied the usual remedies,
which very soon had the effect, in the
case Of the eldest, of relieving it, but
no. so withthe younger, which no ef-
fort could arouse. DR.. Reed then call
ed in DR.. W. H. Clapp. for consulta-
ton, and the Two during Sunday morn
ing tried every expedient to save the
child, but unfortunately all the efforts
failed, and the child died about 2 l,2
o'clock, P. NJ. The case is altogeth-
one Of tho most heart-rending charac-
Ter, and the poor mother, who almost
idoised her child, is frantic with grie!c.

! OBkRLIN.
Fauquier County, Va, Sept. II, AT,
The Shenandoah improvement
We feel it to be duty to collect all
the facts We can, going to show the
Importance of the contemplated i'm
provement of the Shenandoah river
The mineral riches of the region of
country to be benefited by the i'm
provement, are not yet known or APP
preciaied. A letter before US, from a
highly intelligent gentleman, we'll &C
quainted with the upper country, says:
"The gentleman who owns the land,
on which were found the specimens o.
coal which were shown at Front Royal,
informs me that the vein which he ac-
cidentaly discovered, is several feet
thick, where the abrasion of the bank
had land it bare. There can be no
reason to doubt its abundance, though
there has been nothing done tos ascer-
tain the extent Of the mine, as there is.
at present, in this region, no demand
for the article. Coal has been found
all along the foot of the North Noun
tain in that vicinity. With regard to
slote-ihe quarry is on the bank of the
North River, about three miles from
Port Republic. 1t has never been
much opened, but from the exposure in
many places on the bank, there is man
ifeslIy very extensive field. 1t would
require very little to quarry it, and it is
very accessibe-as the water is navi-
gable by boats to the very edge of the
quarry. AS regards iron, l suppose
any qanti'y could be manufactured in
This region,i fthere were such demand,
and at such prices, as would render
its manufacture profitable. A gentle
man has lately discovered on his lands
near Port Republic, large quantities of
iron ore, which, he says, r:akes iron of
the best quality, equal to any he has
ever seen. There can, l think, be no
doubt but that the greatest abundance
of iron, slate, and coal, might be ex-
pected from this section of the State"
When it is recollected, .hat coal, lion,
slate, timber, limestone, marble, gran
lite, &C., will not bear transportation
on Rail Roads, for any considerable
distance, and that the conveyance of
these articles, by water, to market, will
be SO advantageous in view of cheap
ness Of carriage, the Importance of the
proposed Improvement of the Shenan-
doah must be seen and acknowledged
by all interested in developing the rich
es and resources of our state.-.4lr.

Total tonnage
$4,000 tons

In forming this estimate of Tonnage,
| have consulted the address to the
farmers of Fairfax, Fauqnier, CuIpep-
er, &C., published in 1889 by a COM
mittee appointed by the Stockholders of
the Falmouth and Alexandra Railroad
Company, the Census of 1910, and the
reports of the President and Directors
of the Winchester and Potomac Rail-
road Company.
In letter contained in the appendix
to the address, from several merchants
of Alexandra, l find it stated that the
annual receipt of Corn and Oats by
wagons is $4,000 bushels of each, and
the receipts for the year ending June
Both 1889, of Near Mill Flour was TO-
600 barrels, and 1926 barrels of
Flour, and 10000 bushels of Wheat,
from the county bordering on Fauquier
Turnpike, and that part of Loudon,
lying south of the Little River und
Smokers Gap Turnpikes, except the
section Of country on the north OF those
roads and convenient to :hem; they
also state that when the roads are
good much Of the wheat and portion
of the -four goes to Fredericksburg and
Falmouth. They state the number OF
barrels of flour received from Loudon
at 10000, and that the receipt OF
wheat from that county is inconsidera-
bic. TO the question, what portion
of Fauquier trades to Alexandria
they answer one half to two-lhirds.
They also estimate the sales of Plaster
and Salt to that Section of the country
from which they receive -four and wheat
by wagons, at 5000 tons plaster, and
$4,000 bushels salt. In relation to
the return trade, they use this language,
cit is Difficult to ascertain with any
degree of precision, the tonnage Of the
return trade to Alexandria, BY wagons;
but we would suggest that ii probably
does not vary materially from the Te-
ceipts Of flour, wheat, corn, oats, rye,
coin meal, faxseed, pork, and other
articles BY the same conveyance, espe-
ciaIly when We take into the account,
the large quantity Of heavy goods,
WHICH pass through Alexandria, from
Baltimore, and other northern towns. "
Again they say, "Should we hr so for
