The Dispatch comedies to the Lynchourg Express,
that higher prices for single mo- nave oee
contends that the bulk oftobacco sold in Richmond,
commands better price than in Lynehburg Win
In ron,roversy we have nothing TO do our inten-
IN, r, me- simply TO say 10 both parties, that the Pc
,ersburr market ranges higher, as general rule
,han either of the markets above referred TO.
"''' Petersburg Democrat
Our neigbor is entirely mistaken as to this paper
eyer having made any such comparison OF prices
between Lynchburg and Richmond, or having
claimed that Richmond pays higher prices tnan
Lynchburg We consider thatwhat the Press may
saw about prices, is small matter. The farmers
and tobacco sellers are quite smart enough 10 judge
Cor themselves. As TO the claim for Petersburg OF
,nperiority over both Lynchburg and Richmond,
we turn our neighbor over to the Lynchourg ES-
press. That paper makes Lynchourg a greater
market than Richmond, and it is more fitting that
they two should settle their superior claims hrst
the victor can attend to the humble village OF Rich
mond after that contest is decided.

A NUISANCE, at the intersection of Clay

the neighborhood must be very intolerable one as
well as which may be injurious to health. The
city authorities it is understood have had it attended
to several times but it is said permanent improve
ent for the better take place until the work
the cuvert progresses some distance beyond the
point where it is. Then it occurs to US that the
tractor ought to hurry up little. The original con-
tractor we learn, away and left the job for
others go with. This created delay, it is true
But all this doesn't matter If the nuisance is great

also ordered her off Mr.. Wilde then came in,
knocked her down and put her out of doors She
