Good News The Virginia Central
Railroad to be Completed within
Ten Miles of the white Sulphur by
Nav lat 1850.

Correspondence of the Richmond Dispatch.
WHITE SULPHUR, August Is, 1868.
The Board of Directors of the Virginia
Central railroad ut its meeting this eve
ming disposed of the bids for the compile
ton of the road to this place.
All the unfinished work between Coving-
ton and the White Sulphur, with tri-
fling exceptions, has been put under con-
tract, to be completed at the latest by
May LIST, 1869, and ut satisfactory prices.
The successful bidders were rs follows !:
Section A, T. B. Cauthorn & Co.; sections
2 and 8, w. R. johnson, Jr.; unfinished
masonry, Kelley & Mcmahon; Red Hill
tunnel, Kelley & Mcmahon; sections g.,
7, and 2, C. r. Mason & Co.; section TO-,
H. G. Cross sections II, Is, and l6, and
other work, C. r. Mason & Co.
The character of the contractors guaran-
tees the completion of the work in time.
By this arrangement the road will be COM
pleted by the time mentioned to Sproule's
Run, n point about ten miles from this place.
The season here continues as lively as
ever. The truth of this cannot be doubted
when the register shows seventy-seven ar
rivals to-day, which number is unprece-
dented for time as late in the season as
this. Five stageloads of passengers went
off yesterday, and six came in.
Generals Lee and Beauregard paid fly
ing visit to the Sweet yesterday, returning
the same day. DENIS.

EXTREMELY MODEST RAILROAD Con-
DUcToR.-A freight train was wrecked at d
point beyond this-no matter on what road .,
and no matter at what point. The con-
ductor, an exceedingly modest young man,
was obliged to telegraph to the officials the
extent of the accident, and also what mate
rial the damaged Car contained. At the
office where this dispatch was received a
very handsome and intelligent young lady
was in charge, and as several of the cars
were loaded with pig iron, he felt deli
cacy (this bashful conductor) of saying to a
young lady anything about pig iron. He
was equal to the emergency, and sent a
message stating that several of the wrecked
cars ''were loaded with s,oine metal" The
lady smiled pensive smile as she observed
the careful manner in which he avoided
" mocking her Shodesty," and forwarded
the message as per copy.-Co!unbus (Ohio}

A SNAKE SENSATION IN CALEvERAs.-
The Chronicle of July 9Th is responsible for
the annexed:
Quite an excitement has manifested itself
in the usually placid and serene precinct
of Spring Valley within the last few days
on account of two or three reliable gentle
men having seen what some people say APP
reared to them to be at least first cousin
to the somewhat ubiquitous sea-serpent.
The story told US, and the one We believe,
runs "thusly": One day recently, while
two gentlemen who reside upon ranch ad-
Joining that of Young, between Spring Val
ley and Campo Seco, and about eight miles
from this place, were reposing in quiet, and
as they enormously supposed in safety, IN
their house, one Of them discovered some
thing approaching their garden which he
took for gang of half. grown hogs trotting
through the grass, which was about one
foot high, single file. He at once
posed hogs and commenced to halloo, with
view to stopping them ere they reached
the Ito him) sacred precincts Of vegetable
depot but this string of something" says
ourinformant, kept onits way toward himself
ana the vegetables, until he nau feCOufse
to profanity" still thinking them hogs,
we suppose. About this time nc discovered
the intruder to be u snake, which appeared
to be from fifteen to seventeen feet in length,
and in circumference the size Of q stove
pipe. He called loudly for his friend, who
was still in the house, at the same time
feeling an inclination to ago up higher y
stealing gently over him, took a seat Oh the
fence, drawing his pedal extremities as
close as possible to his body, lest if they
were left hanging down the monster might
mistake one of them for "leg OF mutton y
or hare" and commence its absorption,
which would make it very unpleasant for
him, at least. His friend emerged from
the house and took one good look, just
enough to see that he did not know what it
was, and returned, taking the precaution to
close the door after him. Instead of APP
preaching nearer, his snakeship turned tail
to his new-found acquaintance and glidcd
smoothly away in the direction of Young's
ranch, doubtless to the great relief of our
ftiend on the fence.

Rock OriGSe AIum-Bal Masque.
RoCKBRIDGE ALUM SPRINGS,

August "a, 1868.
The Rockbridge Alum is just now in the
hey-day Of gaiety and sociability. We
have large and increasing company of
congenial spirits, and make ourselves merry
with croquet, hunting, fishing, dancing,
ten-pins, etc.
The great bal maSque of the season passed
off with grand fclat, notwithstanding the
short notice given to the guests. This is
not saying much, however, when we take
into consideration that every lady is well
equipped with assorted stocks of iewelry
and millinery, and that Messrs. Frazier &
Co. are magicians who can conjure the most
delicious banquets, with garnishments of
the finest wines, out Of the very depths Of
this stony wilderness of the Alleghanies.
But to return to our mutton. The ele-
giant ballroom was thronged with an array
Of beauty, fashion, and intelligence worthy
of the Old Dominion. An Alabama lady
represented Lady Macbeth, in black velvet,
with founce of real lace, and lace veil
pendant from a spray Of diamonds that
glittered on her brow. Mrs. M-t-h-s
stepped along as the Imperial Josephine,
trailing along the lustrous folds of black
velvet which, gathering tightly to the
waist, met the costly folds of lace that fell
from above. A tiara of pearls and clusters
Of diamonds adorned the head. Mrs. S-th,
of Mobile, reduced to life the difficult fancy
"My First Ball "-the glorious first night Of
youth entering the great world of fashion.
Her petite figure, modelled by nature who
understood womanmaking to perfection,
was clad in blue skirt starred, white silk
body slashed with scarlet, and belted to
small waist with band of gold. Her
head-drsss was black cap of velvet and
plume OF crystals. Mrs. Ian, of Georgia,
was a Circassian Slave. Dress: yellow
body, white skirt striped with red, scarlet
hose, manacles Of bracelets connected by
chains whose links were alternately coral
and gold, and so with her loose-fowing hair
she played the slave to be the queen. Then
there was a daughter of Ceres, from Ala
bama, disguised--if it were possible to dis
gu;se such grace and perfection of figure
in clouded tulle Topped with knots of flow
ers. A sheaf of wheat half-concealed her
handsome shoulders, aud crown of dali
sizes and ponegranate buds rested on her
folds Of light haxen hair. Two Turkish
girls,-onc of Alabama and tho other OF Vir-

BUCKINGHAM, August %,

BUCKINGHAM, August 2S, 1863.
Gcntlemen,-You are mistaken in sup
posing our action here regarding railroad
to Farmville grew out of any unfriendly
feeling towards Richmond. Self-preserva-
ton is the first law of nature. Your people
think the canal and Danville roads enough
for your purposes. You regard our country
trade, perhaps, as too small to claim atten-
ton. We are land-locked and poor; our
lands are dirt cheap our market facilities
wretched and we must do something to
revive our industry and develope our
county.
Since the war closed large amount of
tobacco (some even from within ten miles of
the northern border of the county, has been
carried to Farmville, and there shipped to
Petersburg, or bought up by the Farmyille
buyers, who have been very liberal. This
trade went to Richmond once. Now, those
delivering their produce in Farmville are
calling for the railroad, and others, seri-
rously asking themselves whether it is not
to their interest to go and do likewise, in
cline to favor the road also.
You have our best wishes for the pros
perity of your city, with which we would
be glad to have direct communication.

at dessert with silver dish containing
forty thousand dollars worth of jewels and

telles, worth about two thousand dollars
each, and before they left signed the con-
tract which led them to fame and fortune.
