g sPr0videmce.'' FFolt's Forge, and Ftr.
gsnln Analeuities.

Messrs. Editors, Your correspondent
who gives the Interesting account of the
discoveries made by the eXhumaton of the
old iron works in the lower end of New
Kent county is in error III stfpposing 1t to
have been "a large iron foundry" 1t was,
rs its traditionary name, and the anvil,
slabs Of iron, and other articles found there
indicate-a forge or smelling furnace. The
map of Jcnerson's notes, (London, 1871 ,
and Randolph, Richmond, 1859 shows that
it was known as g Hoit's forge ;" and as the
name Providence does not appear Oh the
same i'll that vicinity, it is but reasonable to
suppose that this was not its original name.
The writer has made many inquiries of
persons living near the place, but could
never learn anything about it's history, and
but for the accident named by your cor
respondent it is highly probable that after
awhile its very existence would have been
doubted.
Colonel Byrd, in the account which he
gives of the manufactures of iron in Virgil
ginia, written about 1888, makes no NELL
tion of this, and he would hardly have
omitted it if in existence at the time, as it
is but Il few miles from Westover, his resi-
dence in Charles City county. In addition
to this, the fact that piece OF pig iron
which was found among the debris and
purchased by Mir. p. Fl. Starke, and by him
presented to the Virginia Historical So
ciety, bears the brand Of Bear Garden Fur
mace, in Buckingham county, in raised let
tiers, "B. g., 1741," we may infer that 1t
was in operation soon after this date, and
from the appearance as above stated on the
map, which is copied from Fry d Jefer-
sons map, made previous to 1863, we may
safely conclude that the "forge" was GER
taInly in operation before 1865, and posi-
bly, soon after 174l.
1t is regretted that so little is known ol
the manufactures which existed in Virgil
mia before the revolutionary war, save an
enumeration of some of the localities al
which these operations were going on, named
| in Mr.. Jefferson's Notes on Virginia, ano
other indefinite accounts, we have no know
| ledge of them. The records of New keni
county might in all probability nave given
| us the knowledge of the names of parties
owning, and dates of transfers of the pro-
perty, and possibly more, but these, WIFI
| like historical treasures belonging to all the
tide-water counties, were destroyed with
the State courthouse in 1865, ana it is only
possible that the files of the Virginia (Wil'
| liamsburg) Gazette may give some intorma
| tion. Every lover of the history and anti
uuities of the State is indebted to your cor:
respondent for his brief note, and we would
! be glad if he would give Il fuller account o.
the discovery and a description OF the artl
cles found. L. H. W.

M. Edouard Lockroy gives an account OF
his night travels in cariole. He Is on the
point of starting for the camp and the
frontier, when at the gates OF Metz the
horse drops his shoes. Whereupon he
visits the nearest blacksmith, and while the
horse is being shod the man recounts his
eynerience of war. The blacksmiths story
was to the effect that on certain occasion
he was in cabaret at Saarlouis with some
Prussians. One of these stepped up to
him and dropped an old quid in his beer.
Whereupon the blacksmith rose, unlocked
a sabre from the wall, and laid about
him with will. He struck one and then
the other, and then a third. He cuts
one. cleayes another, kills two at a
bIow. three-in short, disposes Of them
ali. Having finished the business, the
tremendous Frenchman hangs the sabre
AGAINST the wall, aud goes on his
way. But it SO happened that these Prus-
slams were soldiers and their colonel lind
ino that none of them returned, asked his
Iientenant. "Who killed my Prusslans fer
me pU The lieutenant replied !" "A French
man of Lorraine" The colonel complains
ed-as well he might-to the French au-
thorities. An inquiry was instituted, and
the blacksmith stood forward and said to his
indres "Gentlemen, if person were to
mt nm old chique' into your soup at din
ner what would you dop The Prussian
colonel. who was q manly fellow, cried g
wonId kill him." "Well," the blacksmith
answered. ga Prussian put IN old 'chique
into nv. beer, so / killed all the Prussians
who were there" And the judges, after
due deliberation, told the blacksmith that
he might go home.

A Letter from tho Lower Valley.
Correspondence OF the Richmond Dispatch.
MARTINsBURG, WEST VA

MARTINsBURG, WEST .EA.,}
August II, 1870.
A visit to the Lower Valley at this time
| Is really refreshing. For some years there
has not been. such growth of vegetation,
nor has there been so much rain in August.
During the past ten days we have had al
| ternate showernnd sunshine, which, while
it retards fa1l pfoughing, causes the corn to
grow rapidly.
is not turning. out per acre as some expect
ed, yet the yield will be very good. The
oat crop was fine one, and the corn will be
very heavy. In travelling one passes field
after field of gigantic growth, and on up
lands too. Although there was much rain
| in the spring, farmers were determined to
| do their work nicely, and will now be am
ply repaid for their pains.
The enterprise of this. part of the State
is remarkable. Though this section was
made waste by war, in five years it has
made UP all losses. The only trace of the
march of Mars is the cut-dOwn groves
around the town. Fences have sprung up
as if by magic, roads improved, houses and
barns built, and the whole of the agricul-
tlral interests of the surrounding country
are making giant strides. .
Martinsburg, known to the Confederate
soldier by the title Of "Union Hole," has
doubled her population since 1860. 1t has
now about six thousand inhabitants. The
town bids fair to become much larger in
case the Potomac and Winchester railroad
is built.
The survey of the route has been COM
plcted, and pronounced by the engineer
corps as one of the best they ever surveyed.
| The sickness of the President of the Penn
| syvania Central, and the absence of some
of the directors, is causing delay in their
decision; but parties responsible say the
road will be built.
1t will pass through the finest portion OF
Berkeley and Frederick counties, bringing
large quantities Of produce to this point,
| and opening to this region the Philadelphia
market. This will not interfere with the
building Of the road from Shepherdstown
to some point on the Virginia and Tennes-
| see road by the same corporation.
The decision as to whether Berkeley and
Jefferson belong to Virginia or West Vir-
ginia is still pending before the Supreme
Court Of the United States. The general
feeling here is that it will not be further
agitated, and and that that the two counties afore-
said will remain part of West Virginia.
Southern lawyers now practice in the
courts, and the "letup party" is on the
increase. Persons of known southern feel
ings cannot vote nor hold office. The con.
test for the fall election will be Il consider
able one, the issue being between the white
mans party and the negro party.
Camp meetings are the order of the day,
rs this is the month i'll which they are gene.
rally held in this part of the country. Tour.
naments are also OF weekly occurrence,
while pic-nics fill out the interim. HI.
