farmed Doswell's distinguished race horse Orion,
son of Revenue and full brother to the famous
Planet. Besides these splendid horses, 1 took
steps to have bought at Easter Week Great Horse
Fair of the Normandy District of France two Stall
lions and mare of the celebrated Norman race,
approved wherever known, as uniform breed of
fast heavy draught horses l hear to-day of their
purchase now at sea, and may arrive early in
this month, and propose sending one of them to
Augusta county, wishing to aid, not only in re-
gaining our lost ground in horse breeding by the
Yankee scourge, but to improve our stock of hor-
ses by these tn rec distinct and established breed
of horses.
Black Hawk, Orion and Norman will remain
on my farm at $50 for the season, grooms fee one
dollar, and pasturage for mares from distence,
only one dollar and fifty cents per week. Those
wishing to avoid money obligations, may do so
by dividing the value of the colts when weaned

Il If you need one of the best remedies ever Of

the long list of diseases resulting from such de-
engagements 40 Jaundicc, Bilious Collie, Loss OF APP

cy painful digestion, or pain in the stomach or

ralgia, rheumatism, Impurity of the BLOOD and
all conditions ordinarily called Bilious, Derange-
ments of the Digestive Organs; all forms OF Con-
stipation, and for all the purposes of q Family
Pill, use "Dr. I. Rennolds' celebrated Virginia
Hepatic and Purgative Pill
This pill is not the invention ola quack or an
impostor, designed to impose upon public credu-
lity but was compounded by DR.. I. Rennolds,
of Stauntcn, Va, regular graduate and eminent
practitioner of medicine in this section who, after
years of careful study, SO arranged the proper
tons of the ingredients as to render it applicable
to the diseases for which it is recommended. He
had 70 idea of extending their use beyond the
community in which he lived and practiced, but,
after his death, which occurred in January, 1864,
having left the formula for compromising them to
his brother VIM. Rennolds of Louisa county,
Va, the latter, for reasons stated IN pamphlet
| around box containing them, has undertaken to
have them manufactured for the people Of the
whole State.
This pill has stood the test ofample experience,
having been extensively used and highly valued
by the people of this section for many years, as is
| substantiated by certificates contained in pam
Dhlet around box, as well as other evidences of
appreciation from many ofour most distinguished
and reliable citizens.
The price of this pill is fifty cents per box
Though this is apparently higher than the price
charged for those ordinarily sold to the public,
yet it must be remembered that the dose is less
| than one half Of the latter, and consequently is
| just as cheap as any others.
To prove this it is only necessary to call atten-
ton to the fact that boxes of pills usually contain
from "a to 80 pills, the average dose being from
8 to 6. Our boxes contain H. the dose being on
ly one for ordinary purposes, and hence thequan-
tity is Just as great in smaller bulk without ref
crence to the certainty and efficiency of the rem
dy and obviating the serious objection to taking
SO many for one dose.
Nothing is claimed for this pill that we do not
conscenciously believe, and if we cannot succeed
in introducing it to the people by stating the
truth, we will not degrade ourselves or try to i'm
pose upon others by going beyond it,
WIN. REYNOLDS & CO..
Sole proprietors, Staunton, Va.

Augusta county for these pills. Merchants and
others desiring them consignment or otherwise

In this day Of recuperation an earnest de-
sire is shown to throw aside the old Fogyism
Of the past and take advantage of every thing
nature has placed in our midst.
Left without dollar at the close of hos
tilities our people have addressed themselves
to the work before them withan energy equal
to their undertakings and to the wants of the
time, which is noticeable to the merest observer
who drops into our community, and has been
heralded by more than one of our cotempora-
RIGS elsewhere as stimulus to their commu-
mites.
Our Stores have been rc6tted and opened
with goods admirably suited to the wants of
our people, our workshops are again sending
forth the pleasant sounds Of busy industry,
and the main spring of all, the plain, plod-
ding and patient husbandman, with half the
labor OF the past, boldly prepares his land
for the coming seed time, and carefully plants
his crop in the hope of an abundant harvest,
with which to supply his wants and Keep in
active motion the vast business machine of
our community.
AS we have before minated, not content
wich the old combination of wheels in this
business machine, which we have run for so
many years, new wheels have been added
and we notice builders establishments and
Iron works in active operation and with
a prospects of brilliant success.
Situated in the midst of an iron district
and in direct Communication with many Dor
tons of the State by the Virginia Central
and connecting roads, and to be made more
accessible to others by the Valley Railroad
Staunton must develop her advantages in the
manufacturing line, and being at a point
adapted to supply readily the wants Of the
country North West, West and South West
Of this, will ultimately be the centre Of con-
siderable wholesale business, which must nee
cssarily build her up to position not sccon-
Diary to any in the State While we write,

Bros, Of Winchester, are preparing to open
wholosaie establishment, and others in a
different line will follow suit

1t is reported that at Cabinet meeting on
May LIST. the President invited an expression
of opinion on the Reconstruction Committee S
report. Secretaries Seward, McCulloch,
Welles and Stanton were decided in their op-
position to it and earnest in their support of
the Presidents policy. The Postmaster
General favored the Presidents policy, but
was in doubt as to when Southern Represen-
tatiyes should be admitted. The Attorney
General was not present The President was
emphatic in his opposition to it, declaring that
under the Constitution no State could be de-
prived of representation and that the South
ern Senators and Representatives should be
admitted, that the Union could be restored
under the Constitution, which had carried it
successfully thro' the rebellion, without any
amendments, and remarked that if the Or
ganic law was to be changed it should be
done when all the States and people could
participate in the alteration.
