Academic exercises will be suspended
from the 18th to the 9th, inclusive, to en-
able the students to join in the rites and
services appropriate to the occasion and
while enjoying these privileges with CRATE
full hearts, all are urged to do or counte-
nance nothing which may disturb the
peace, harmony, and happiness, that should
pcrvadc q Christian community.
"R. f. LEE, President"
This order has had n fine effect, and but
few of the students have violated it. The
several churches had "Ckristmas treats -
for their Sunday schools, which tho little
folks enjoyed hugely.
There was a shooting affair on the street
to-day which created considerable excite
ment. Mr.. G. 4. White, one Of the pro-
p~rietors Of the hotel here, had an ~altcrca-
Sion with NJ. Jewel, the express agent, III
which he shot at Jewel and struck a young
by the name Of Steele, the ball taking
effect just below the knee, and inflicting II
very severe NhouTh, it is hoped, not dan-
gcrous) wound. Whites pistol being taken
from him lc seized Il paving-stone. and
aftcr.intiic;ing Il pretty severe blow on Jew
els head; RAN into u store and locked the
dior. The l"'rficS were then arrested and
brought bcf,"c his Honor Mayor fem
dcrsou, VINO, at;c, " lcu@thv examination,
decided that Nj. Jewel should be bond
over to keep the lctce. and pay the costs Of
the trial, anL ,Iud Nj. White should he dis
charged.
According 10 this liEh legal authority, if
one gentleman ir.silts another on tho
.ctrcct, and he reseitts il with Il blow, the
~insultcr may then shoot him with perfect
impunity. and pound him with a paving
stone but the one who was insultcd must
pay costs, and be bound over TO keep the
peace for twelve months. The whole COM
seems 10 srmpathizo with Mr..
Jewel. who was for some time clerk in the
hotel here. and won the public confidence
by his polite and gcntlemanly bearing.
and there is n general desire TO know where
the Mayor got his law from. 1t is under
stood that the decision will be thoroughly
ventilated before Il higher court.

NORFOLK ASD GREAT WESTERN Road
The Danville Register says:
"Colonel Flournoy returned from New
York last week, and we learn that al lm-
portant proposition was submitted 10 him by
capitalists Of that city for the building Of
the Norfolk and Great Western railroad.
The proposition, we suppose, Will not be
made public until it is approved by the
Board of Directors. There is said to be no
doubt about the ability of these capitalists
to comply with any contract they may en-
ter into"
The CoyINGTON RAILROAD MOVEMENT
The delegates appointed at the late public
meeting at Holcombe Hall, in this city, to
visit the counties of Eockbridge and Be-
tetourt in the interests of the pro-
posed railroad extension to Coyington, de-
sign, we learn, some time during the com
Ing month, 10 visit the cities of Norfolk,
Petersburg, and Richmond, with the Wow
of enlisting the interest and engaging the
assistance Of those communities IN the pro-
iected road. 1t is hoped and expected that
the delegations appointed to represent the
peoule Of the counties referred to will join
in these visits, so that they may learn the
disposition Of the citizens of those places
in regard to the undertaking, and be pre-
pared to report, from a full understanding
Of all the facts and circumstances, as to
the prospects and chances of its success.
We believe that the people Of Lynchburg
are deeply in earnest in their wish and
nurpose to secure this extension, and that
they hold themselves prepared to contri-
butte towards it in every way. possible. 1t
cannot be many years before the road is
constructed, and it will mark an important
era in the history of the development,
prosperity, and industrial enterprise, Of
