EDITOR CosNoPoLITE II desire, as an unsolIc-
tied tribute to the merits Of fHELMB0LD's BTCHU
and for the benefit OF those similarly afiicted as
myself to say that after consulting many emil
nent physicians and trying nearly all the best ad.
vertised remedies, in the vain hope Of finding re.
Lief from aggravated kidney aad bladder dis
ca ses, from which have suffered excessively for
many years, good fortune finally suggested to
me HELMBOLD'S BUCHU, which commenced
using with little faith, and no apparent beneficial
effects for about q month. At the expiration Of
that time, however, thought commenced to ex-
perlence slight relief, which encouraged me to
persevere in Its use, and now, OF the expiration
Of four months, although am an infrm, old man
nearly seventy-eight years Of age, and conse-
bly, affect me as they otherwise would, have
found such uuspeakable relief and permanent
benefit from Mr.. Helmbdld's1 valuable discovery,
that feel 1:ougnt To- publicly record the fact as
gestlon to the public. Yours, respectfully y.s,,

A New OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
ing Crors-EGects OF the Drought
Change of Trade-Inforrnation for
Mail Agents.
BROADWAY, ROCKINGHAM COUNTY IFAr
February 10, 1870.
This is village growing up around sta
,ion on the Orange, Alexandria and Manas-
SIS Gap railroad, fourteen miles north Of
Harrisonburg. 1t is situated at the jnne-
ton of Linville creek and the north branch
of the Shenandoah rivcr--the same which
issues from Brooks gap and passes near
Mt. jackson. The valleys Of these two
streams are famous for their beauty and
fertility, and Linyillc Creek lands rate
higher than probably any in the State not
contiguous to a large town.
The village contains two stores, q hotel,
nnd Presbyterian church not yet finished.
4 considerable trade is drawn here from
pendleton and Grant counties, West Vir-
giua, through Brooks Gap, Us we'll as from
the surrounding country.
This region suffered rs much as any part
Of the Valley from Sheridan's famous
burning; but the barns and mills have
been very generally rebuilt, and number
Of new buildings likewise, SO that the coun-
,rv around has fresh and txed-up ap-
rcarancc.
The growing wheat has been much i'm
proved bv the mild winter weather. Some
which did not come up in the fall is now
looking green and fourishing: so that the
promise OF Il grain crop next harvest IL
about as favorable as usual.
Ike farmers are taking advantage OF the
mild winter to plough for corn, and many
have finished this part of their usual spring
work. Corn is a scarce article here, and IS
HIGHER in price than in Alexandria. This
is owing TO the drought of last summer,
which was very severe here. Farmers are
therefore preparing to raise large crop OF
this important cereal this year. The evil
ofthc drought which will be longest felt
in Ibis rcgion is the destruction OF the
yoilnr grass Of last spring, which is very
general. Indeed many fields we'll set in
clover we're burnt almost bare. Thus the
scarcity of grass the coming season is likely
70 be 4 serious matter for this grazing coun-
try.
Our railroad connection being directly
with Alexandria. the trade is almost en-
,ircly with that place and Baltimore. 1t is
20 be regretted that we are thus so cut OFT
from Richmond, which sgenerally the best
luarkc; for some kinds of produce, and
with which formerly there was much
trading. The anticipated extension of the
railroad from HarrisOnburg to Staunton
will restore, in Il measure, the former rela-
tons with your city.
The RAILROAD mail agents, or whoever
gives direction to the mail matter coming
from Richmond, seem to be doubtful about
TIC proper route to this place. The Dis
pqich reaches here about one-half of the
time by the northern mail on the evening
of the day after it is published. Now, al
though VIC arc on the Alexandria railroad,
the direct route from Richmond is not
through Alexandria, but by Staunton and
IIarri,onburg. Attention to this would put
an end to some yeXatous delays in the arri-
val Of Richmond newspapers. D.
