less products of the fihsries there. By the
said road, quick access may be had by steam

Of Maryland, with its pleasant towns that
gem the margin. of tho Chesapeake also to
Norfolk, whence its early spring products will
reach us with expedition, and which will be
on the line of Communication hence to the
eastern part Of North Carolina
BY tho extension of the Loudoun and
Hampshire route not only will we get direct
and quick access to the fertile fields of Lou
doun county, but to those of the Valley of
Virginia, by connecting roads that are ex-
tending along it. When the coal fields shall
be reached, then will open upon our three
cities career Of prosperity, that will cause
them to literally leap forward in the path of
an assured greatness and prosperity. Never
was community in so favorable situation
as our own to get extensive railway facilities
at so trifing a sacrifice in the way of invest
mnent. It should be borne in mind that a
New York company has obtained a charter
which contcmplates the extension, in effect,
of the Loudoun and Hampshire railway from
the coal mines to the Ohio river at Cincinnati
Undoubtedly our citizens would subscribe
for the stock Of the works in question; but
we learn that Mr. H. D. Cooke, who has had

Cure for Hydr0phObia.

We cut from our exchanges the follow
ing remedies for hydrophobia, which may
be worth bearing in mind at the present
time: We advise our readers to clip out
such cures as are of practical value and
paste them in scrap book kept for the
purpose. Such book, indexed, will in a
short time form treasure. 4~ii :.
One remedy is as follows: Horse radish
grated and mixed with little vinegar and
sweet oil to form paste. Eat of this all
that can be swallowed and kept on the
stomach. Repeat the eating and renew
the poulticc as often as necessary, to keep
up the stimulating effect of the horse rad
ish, until the spasms are relieved and the
patient cured.
Another is: Take Immediately warm
vinegar or tepid water, wash the wound
Herewith, and then dry it, then pour upon
the wound few drops of hydrochloric
aid, because mineral acids destroy the
poison OF the saliva, by which means the
latter is neutralizea.
Another recipe is: Mix one pound Of
common salt in quart of water, then
battle with and squeeze the wound with
the same one hour, then bind little more
salt on the wound for twelve hours. The
author of this recipe was bitten six times
by mad dogs, and always cured himself
with the above mixture, and offers to suf-
fer himself to be bitten by any mad dog
in order to convince mankind that what
he offered was a real truth, to which num-
bers could testify.'-Le,c. Va. Gazette.

A Few Words.

It is but due Maj CARRIER as we'll as our.
selves to state that he is in no way respon.
sible for any thing which has appeared Ed
itorial, Local, or Personal in the Valley
Virginian for some months, though we re-
regret exceedingly that our humble efforts
have not met with his approval.
We, however, feel confident that ma.
jorIty of our readers will make allowance,
if we have failed to give satisfaction at
all times, when they take into considera.
ton the fact Of our having to do the Edi-
torial, Local and News, as we'll as the bu-
siness of the establishment for the last
half year, with innumerable difficulties
to contend against daily. We can
conscientiously say that we never inten-
tionly misrepresented or injured any one.
With members of the press whom we
have been brought in contact, either per-
sonally or otherwise, good feeling has ex-
listed with but one exception-the Editor
of the Spectator-and had we not been
wrongly impressed with regard to some
things, and totally ignorant of others, con-
nected with the affair, there would have
been no difficulty or bad feeling in this
case. But thanks to the disabilities Of
both, (neither having made application to
Congress fora removal,) nobody was hurt,
though there was tremendous sspullin'
an a scratchin' for time.

From causes, which do not interest or con-
Germ the general public, the Editor, Founder,
and Senior Partner of the Valley Virginian
has not had personal control over its columns
for some months past, and he deems it due to
himself and generous patronage, in taking
leave, to say that he has not, and does not ap,
prove Of many things, editorial and local
which have appeared in tie paper-especially
the personalities. While in his charge he
is aware of many errors committed. For
them he asks you to remember, that while il
is Human to err-to Forgive is Divine!
In temporarily severing his pleasant asso
Citations with his brethren of the Press, he
carries with him the most grateful recolect
ions Of the many kindnesses and courtesies
extended. They will ever be green spots in
his memory.
To one and all it is hard to say farewell
To part with the friends of years is hard to
give up ones "bantling'' (for such the
Virginian has been to meg is harder STILL
The heart grows sad at the thoughts which
arise, and the ready pen fails us in attempting
to express all we feel. But the fates so viii
it, and he can but bow to circumstances
which he had hoped would never render this
article necessary. Ho does not deem hi
opinions of the political situation" of impor
lance enough to bore the public with then
here, even were it appropriate Suffice it K
say that he is and ever will be VALLEY V1R
GILMAN, in the true acceptation Of the words
as long as life lasts, and no matter where hi
lot may be cast. He believes we were rich
in the past, in our struggle for independence
has nothing to repent for, and, politically
nothing to take back.
But, the last word must be said, sad as i
is. So here's to my friends God bless them
and good bye Ito my enemies, may H,
change their hearts to one and ALL let III
part remembering,
"Who made the heart, tits He alone
Decidedly can try u.s.
He knows each cord-its various tone,
Each Spring-its various bias;
Then at the balance let's be mute,
We never can adjust it,
What's done partly may compute,
But know not what's resisted"

The Evils of IntemDerance.

There are every day occurrences that call
to our minds the evil and depressing effects
of drink. 1t is Whiskey that has taken
the. glow of health from the cheek, the
lustre from the eye, strength from the
limbs and vitality from the blood. It is
Whiskey that has entered the temple OF
thought and dethroned reason--that has
taken the beam of intelligence from the
eye-has bribed the tongue to utter false
hoods-broken the ties of friendship, has
made the indulgent father brute and the
afectionate mother fiend, that has filled
our prison hoxses with men whose business
has been crushed and broken up by the too
free use Of ardent spirits.
What fearful record indeed, and what
a wide field for the display of christian
virtues. Let us unite the many examples
that eeane up before us and take warning
in time, for fear that death and destruc-
ton may come upon us when we least ex-
pect. One thing is certain, no man can
prosper and become good member of So
csty who continues course of dissipation.
1T gives US great pleasure to notice the
efforts made by the old and new associa-
tons of Friends Of Temperance of our
t"wn. May they continue to flourish and
1aay the good effects of 5ineir teachings be
