Fr,m the ClInch Valley News.

An address has been issued by the Con-
sentative Central State Committee, which
we hope will be attentively read by every
citizen. The spirit and tone of this address
have been spoken well Of and highly COM
plimented by the Conservative press
throughout the country. Our contempt
rarics would do well to lay aside all cons
temptiblc quibbling about party names and
90 to work at once and labor diligently for
the success Of the Conservative nominees
throughout the State.
Our congressional delegation will be de-
termined by the fall elections; therefore it
is of vital importance to choose men known
to lie Conservative. We want no more
LcwiscS, stained with treason and moral
yillainy, to represent us. On the success of
her district nominees depends the veal or
woe of Virginia. These gentlemen are be-
fore the people as Conservatives, and as
this name unites all elements, and has al
ready borne us triumphantly through one
grand struggle, let us again ulfurl our BAN
ner to the breeze and vote as one man the
Conservative ticket.

RAwIEy SPRINGS


NEAR IIARRIsoNBURG, VA, August -. J
Rawlev is beautifully situated upon the
southeast slope Of the North Mountain, en-
vironcd by mountains picturesque and
grand. The scenery i'll and about the
Springs is rs grand rs any that we have seen
in the State. 1t alone is sufficient to attract
visitors from all parts Of the country. There
are three springs at the Rawley. The water
of all three springs is without odor, but pos
scsSes Il strongly marked chalybeate taste.
No Interchangeable in the mountains of our
grand old State Basilca affords the invalid
or the seeker for pleasure more comfort and
enjoyment than the Hawiey. The accom-
modltions are ample, and with neWly-con-
structed buildings it makes one feel as II he
were "hOme again." A grasp OF the hand
from the polite and gcntlemanly manager,
Mr.. Samuel GoOde, is sufficient to remind
one that "thcrc's life in the old land yet"
Every department. indicates state OF
completion which alone characterlZes the
old Virginia style of happiness, and the
guests rarely need anything, for the head
Of Rawley seems to possess an 1ntultlFe
power which rests alone in Il '1evel head"
Those who wish to engage in ballroom
pleasures have ample opportunity afforded
them. Those who enjoy moonlight strolls,
aud wish to remind their partners that lite
is now but a labyrinth of time in its flight,
and might be co&xtensive with perfect
contentInent by one additional word, nave
no better place ut which to begin or con-
summarize such ideas, for Nature has pre-
pared ballroom rock y not very tar OIL,
where the crystal stream lends its merry
note, and ] was going to say, II Win the
loved one there, time itself would DC
wrapped in the cloak Of forgetfulncss.
There are now at the Rawley about l2O
visitors, representing all parts of the coun,
try. The society is remarkably good, ana
we have observed much beauty among the
number.
For the past few days it has been I'M
usually gay. Friday night last the mono

the arrival of four Of the Harrisonbure.
beauties. After supper the merry notes OF
the music summoned those of us. who are
Neiven'' to dancing to the scene of festivity.
Harrisonburg was well and ably repre-
sented. and we may not he amlss in saying
that the metropolis of Rockingham, on this
occasion. shone conspicuously bright. The
