STANTON MUSICAL ASSOCIATION.

The war has not quite knocked us into flinders,
though it has somewhat Frustrated u.s. We have
fourishing Lyceum, a Philomathesian Society,
and talented corps of Thespans. In addition
to these intellectual associations, we have now q
regularly organized Musical Society," composed
of the best professional and amateur talent of our

of the divine art" took place, and the ''Staun-

election of the following officers:
Prof j. III. Hewitt, President M . u

" D. w. Drake, Treasurer.
" 4. III. Hunter, Librarian.
DR.. j. l.. Brown, Director.
Prof. Joel Ettinger, Organist.
Their meetings are to take place weekly, on
Tuesday evenings
large number of ladies were present at the
meeting, and contributed greatly to the further
ance of the object in view. On assuming the
chair, Prot. Hewitt made some very appropriate
mountaineering the members to promptness and
unity. A number Of fine chorusses were Their
sung with an effect that would have done
credit to an experienced choir, every part being
complete.
We hail the formation of this Association with
feelings of pleasure, as we are confident that i
will be the fountain of much social enjoyment t.
our citizens, and furnish US with class of must,
which will please senses, while it improve

A GRAND CHARITY LOTTERY.

For the benefit of the widows and orphans of
Southern Soldiers, a grand charity lottery has
been projected, by the Southern Orphan Associa-
ton whose central Office is in Richmond. This,
like many other projects of charity for the bene-
tit of the poor of the South, originated in the gen.
erous city of Baltimore
Out of 100000 certificates, at the low price of
one dollar each, it guarantees 1904 premiums,
consisting of valuable houses and lands, and of
pianos, melodeons, gold watches, sewing-n.a
chimes and cotton gins, none of which will be of
less value than one hundred dollars This pro-
ject is so grand, SO comprehensive, and wit6al so
honest and noble as to merit Universal attention
and support. 1t not only proposes to relieve
widows and orphans, but gives to those who sub
scribe the small sum of one dollar a chance-in
addition to numerous other prizes Of value-for
one premium valued at $40 600; one at $4,000;
one at $4,000, and one at 5000 So, for one dol
lar contributed in charity a subscriber may get
a fortune.
Our people will try their luck in this scheme.
We are perplexing our mind to know what we
will do with the elegant Mansion in Richmond
occupied by jeff. Davis during his Presidency,
and the Stratford House in Westmoreland, and
the two tracts of land one containing 1000 and
the other 500 acres and the pianos, watches &C.,
which we expect to draw. We rely confidently
upon the adage: Fool for luck
As there are many others like ourselves we
suppose that the sale of certificates will be brisk

MIR. sTUARTs LECTURE.

Rev. S. d. Stuart of this place, who was re-
Gently on visit to England, delivered lecture
before the Staunton Lyceum on last Friday night.
A number Of ladies and gentlemen, not members
of the Society were present. and all were highly
gratihed and most pleasantly entertained for
more than an hour. Mr.. Stuart commenced his
lecture with his embarkation from the port OF
New York, and after varied voyage-having
encountered the cloud, sunshine and the gale
landed safely at Liverpool. And there, being on
the soil of old England, he visited many points
of interest and being minister of the gospel he
heard many Of the most distinguished and noted
divines, some of whom delighted him, and others
fell below what he anticipated He heard the
noted Sturgeon preach to his congregation OF
5000 souls, and while there was nothing peculiar
ly striking or attractive in the personal appear
ance of this eminent divine, yet he held his au-
dience and seemed to sway them at will.

Grant on Political Questions.

A correspondent of the Chicago Tribune
writes as follows from Louisville, KY, January
II:
have had long and unreserved converse
ton with the Arkansas delegation, direct from
Washington, where they went to confer in regard
to the admission of the State. The committee
consisted Of General Grant, John r. Fell, and
R. G. Newton. They think the Impeachment
scheme will be wholly abandoned or defeated,
and say that congressman are overwhelmed
with letters protesting against impeachment.
The committee found the President firm in the
determination to see equal justice meted out in
every State The delegation also met at the
dinner table of Secretary Seward: General
Grant, who was very reticent on political mat
tiers, frankly stating to them that he knew no
thing of political matters, and was wholly
ignorant of the sophistries of politicians regard
ing the constitutional amendment. The Gene
raj declined to express any opinion as to its JUS
tice, constitutionaity, or expediency but he
said he would like for at least one Southern
State to adopt it as an experiment, to see il
their senators and representatives would be adj
mitted to seats in Congress, at the same time
expressing the opinion that they would be ad-
mitted. He also stated that at the commence
ment of Congress he urged upon prominent
members if they intended to make the adoption
on the part OF Southern States OF the amend
ment the condition precedent to readmission,
they ought to pass resolution to that effect
| solemnly pledging Congress to receive the SEN
ators and representatives who were elected to
that body. If they did not take some such step
they could not expect southern people to take
a step that might be preliminary to others that
would lead them they knew not where. On the
negro suffrage question he was more decided,
stating that he believed that was question that
should be left wholly and entirely with the people
of the several States; that Congress, in his
OPINION had r.ght to Interfere Re IN nj shat mat
came up in Illinois, and he were there to vote,
he would certainly vote against it. But he said
something to the effect that if he were in one
Of the southern States he believed he would vote
for it, for he was satisfied he could march the
niggers up to the polls to vote them as he
pleased, and would thus be gaining instead Of
losing political power. They called upon Thad.
Stevens, and say he insulted them

SHOT,

On the 23rd inst, young man named Landes,
living about five miles from Harrisonburg was
practicing with Colts FIVE shooter, and calling
the attention of his cousin, (another young Lam
des,) to the accuracy of shot aimed at tree
The young man with the pistol remarked to his
companion, 'do you wish to see me cut the twig
just above your head on that treeY' The man
made sport ofhis apparent vanity and responded,
''why, you cannot hit me-" In an instant the
pistol was leveled, the trigger pulled, and down
came the game. The ball entered just below the
eye, probably destroying the sight, and lodging
in the head. DIR. W. o. Hill was sent for, but
at last accounts had not succeeded in finding the
ball. They each about nineteen years ofage,

Mr.. GREELEY VIEWs.-In respect to the
views of Mr.. Greeley regarding the South, the
Washington correspondent of the Baltimore
Gazette writes as follows:
II learn to-day that Mr.. Greeley, of the New
York Tribune has, of late, in an extensive cor
respondence, advised the Union citizens. So
called, of the Border and Southern States, great
~ to moderate their demands upon Congress,
and to forego altogether their attempt to govern
in their States respectively by system of pro-
scription and test-oaths. He reminds them
(what universal history proves) of the utter i'm
practicability of an Insignificant minority gov
erning an intelligent majority by mere fraud and
force, for any considerable time, and instances
the recent result of the elections in Maryland as
confirmation strong as proofs of Holy Writ of
his views
