FIRE AT ABINGDON. On Saturday morn
ing at an early hour the Academy at Alb
ingdon, in this county, took fire and was,
with its contents, entirely destroyed, except
the naked stone walls, which arc still stand
ing. The lower part of the building was oc-
cupied by Mr.. Robert Henry, as schoolroom
and the upper room by the Odd Fellows, as
lodge room. Every thing in the building
was q total loss-Mr. Henry and the Mount
Vernon Lodge being the only sufferers, with
the exception of the owners or stockholders
of the building. This Academy was, we be-
lieve, built about the year 1929, and was at
one time one of the most flourishing educa-
tional institutions in this part of the State.
Many years ago, Abingdon lost by fire Col
lege of considerable note, and the Academy
just destroyed was built on what was known
as the College Lot, and not far from the site
where formerly stood the old college build

MIND YoUR Own BUSINESS Monday
evening we had the satisfaction of listening
to lecture from the Rev. MI Sher1ner, on
the subject of minding your own business
The lecturer handled his subject with consid-
cradle ability, and in the course of the even
ing put forth some wholesome truths, which
it would be well for most of us who heard
him to heed. Many of the views which he
promulgated were new and original, and as use
fpl and important as they were new. Some
parts of his address were odd enough, and
created some merriment, as we presume was
intended by the speaker, but they were none
the less valuable on this account. Indeed,
most of his propositions were rational, prac-
teal truths He was little severe on both
male and female who live in idleness, but not
moro so than they deserve. Perhaps one
of the best portions of the lecture was that
in reference to the study of childhood
Instead of selecting for them business, or
trade or profession which you prefer they
should follow, watch their inclinations and
put them to that trade, profession or business
which nature seems to have fitted them for
If this was ofLener done, we are strongly in.
clined TO agree with Mr.. Shermer, that there
would be much less danger of failure.
