FINE PoRKEEs.-Thcre were more than
hundred head of hogs slaughtered in our town
during last week, and many OF them very fine.
On Tuesday, Mcssrs. Kellison q johnson
butchered thirty,six, among which were four
belonging to Mr., X, which weighed rcspee>
lively, 333, 267, $50 and 245. Mr.. Thomas
johnson had so slaughtered five, the aggrc-
gate weight of which was 100; Mr, Mid
dlekauff five weighing 900; Mr.. Jonathan
IIaines two ore weighing $50 and the other
297; Mr. John NJ. Bellcr two, wei1himg 400.
Mr. Merchant also slaughtered eighteen on
Tuesday, several of which weighed over 230.
Taking into consideration the high price CT
corn carly in the season, and the unusual
scarcity of hogs, this speaks we'll for the thrift
and foresight of our neighbors.

Railroad Affairs,

] 4eCb111OClu oudlI6s
From the Clarke Courier of last week, We
copy the following interesting items in regard
to the contemplated railroad. The spirit that
is manifested in behalf of this enterprise, is
most gratifying, and we trust is tie sure har-
binger of its ultimate success.
Potomac and Salem Rai2road.-We do
not propose to go just now into the advantages
to this county of securing through it the tran
sit of this railroad. Probably the county is
it may not be to the importance of action in
the matter.
main difficulty that railroads have to
contend with is land damages; aud especially
in this case, where wealthy foreign corpO-
ration is supposed to stand sponsor. That
idea would necessarily drive the road to those
sections where land owners could see ultimate
advantages in the road to cause them to make
concessions.
1t seems to sensible, satisfactory and
equitable mode Of settling that difficulty, that
those counties along the road which intend to
make contributions, should make u part of
thor contributions, by assuming the land
damages, and taking the amount in stock of
the road We believe that some persons in
this county would freely give up all claims to
land damages for the advantage of having the
road pass through their farms but this is not
expected of all Ifthc county should under
take to pay for damages, the owner of land is
compelled to accept reasonable compensation
his peiShbors are to be taxed to pay him.
The county could appoint commissioners who,
having the interest of the county at heart,
would take into consideration the advantages
to the LAID owners as well as the actual loss,
and assess damages accordingly. We throw
out this idea for the consideration OF our
county.

Soldiers Orphans in Virginia.
In fuitherance of the philanthropic object
of educating the orphans of deceased soldiers
in Virginia, the Agent of the State, Rev. w.
T. BRoADDUs, of Fredericksburg, visited our
town during the last week. lie preached in
the Presbyterian church on Thursday night,
deeply interesting discourse, to quite large
and appreciative audience, at tic conclusion
Of which he brought the object of his mission
to the consideration of our people. For the
stringency of the times, quite liberal con-
tributlon was made, and for the information
of those who may feel an interest in the cause,
but who were not present on the occasion, he
furnishes the following explanatory statement:
Mr.. Editor :-Permit me through your
paper, to return nay thanks to the people of
Charlestown and its vicinity for tho favor they
have shown to this work. Soon after the close
of the late war, the :. Baptist General Asso.

the society by which, during the year, they
had done much for educating the children of
our deceased soldiers At first it was pro-
posed to call Convention of the different
denominations of Christians in the State, and
: organize 90 Union Society for this work
But we had already aNcommittee, success

At the plan needed not to be changed.
From the beginning, we have employed

of Teachers or Pupils and our books show
that in proportion to the relative number of
Baptists have had 10 advantage whatever in
