and grain indebted 20 internal improvements for the
biphly remuneratiye prices they receive Tor the
fruits of their industry and when it is remembered
that their products not only bring higher price at
market than formerly, but that it less to get
them TO market-they must perceive that they derive
two-fod advantage Add to this the growing en-
hancement in the value of their lands in the vicinity
should be the last to mnrmcr at the taxes resulting
from the construction Of these works.

The Bank of South Western Virginia has been or

1t may not generally be known that we have
large aud tiourishing Sabbath School in this village

AeSt Sabbath will be the fourth since its commence
ment We hear that it is proposed to have celebra-
ton and pie mic on the 4th of July gentleman of

county, Va, by the Vigilance Committee. A few
nights since AN attempt was made to assassnate Nj
Henry Hammer, Elk Sun; and Mr. Chapman

10y poison.
Gas HorsE LME.-Aw writer in the Scientific Amer
ean says that the refuse lime taken from the puiif-
OF gas works is a better disnfectant than the best
pure lime. As there is constant accumulation OF
the article nj city gas works it could be used in
stead OF going to the expense of purchasing fresh
lime for the purpose. \ little trial OF it would soon
test its value, and there is no better time than the
present, to begin with it. We commend it to the
city authorities.
TuE CRoPs.-So far have had an opporuni-
y judging, the crops in this vicinity appear quite
encouraging at this time. The wheat crop will be
very good one 1t will he matured aud ready for the
sickle in few days, and from all signs must yield
abnndantly.
Tie oat crop is backward, but vigorous anu rather
promising. For week two back, the earth hrs
been blessed with occasional showers, which have
proved very grateful to the growing ont crop. few
more timely rains will insure full harvest Of oats
About the usual quantity of tobacco will be plan
ted out, but the crop Will be late The seasons have
been very favorable recently for setting out the
phnts.-Daa. Rep
