We have read, with pleasure aud profit alib

We have read, with pleasure aud profit alike,
the exceedingly interesting and well written
story of Virginia life, styled tThe Holcombes, u
by Miss Mary T. Magill, of Winchester, Va
The portraiture is most graphically and faith
fully drawn, and in its perusal we were carried
back, in fancy, to the wild freshing of morn
ing" and we lived again in those grand old
times, when there was nothing to disturb the
peace, quiet and happiness of social life, ere
"grim visaged war" bad frowned upon our
fair land and left many vacant chairs to monu-
ment the silent grief and sorrow of home life.
The authoress has just given to the public, in a
book styled Southern "Women," the expert
ences of the Holcombe Family during the period
of our late struggle with the North 1t illus
trates, in lofty bearing and selfsacrifce, the
pure and exalted character of Southern woman
hood. Such works are calculated to make a
most wholesome impression on the mind and
mould character after the lofty models of the
past.
These books may be purchased of Messrs. Bell
& Co. and Messrs. Hunter & Co. No one will
regret the investment, which yields both pleas
ure and instruction to the reader.

In this connection we call attention to the fact
that Col NJ. G. Hartman has spared neither time,

much credit cannot be given him for his unfag-
ging exertions and his interchangeable zeal in be-
half of our people and section.

For the information of all those who would
otherwise vote for Messrs. Waddell and Sterrett,
on "The Peoples Ticket" for the general infor-

men, and in refutation of an assertion going the
rounds that they would accept the nomination,
as well as at the request Of Mr.. Waddel, on yes
terday, we publish their card
To "THE People OF THE WHOLE COUNTY, =
We observe with extreme regret that our names
have been placed upon Legislative Ticket in
opposition to the regular nominees Of the Con-
sentative party. It is unpleasant to disagree
with those who confitle in and seek to honor US );
but we are constrained to say that the use Of onr
names in the manner indicated, is without our
consent and against our wishes. We regard the
candidates nominated by the Convention of the
10th, as the representatives of the Conservative
party, with which we are heartily identified,
and shall give them our support.
Respectfully,

Many improvements are going on IN this
place in the shape Of buildings, and plan is
about being put in operation for concentrated
action in this line. Every dwelling in Staun-
ton is occupied and more demanded. If our eff
forts were united, one hundred dwellings would
be put up this Winter and Spring and our pop
ulaton increased, probably l,ooo. This is the
way to build up our city. Unite your efforts
and erect not only dwellings but manufacturing
establishments, to furnish constant labor to a
large number, and work up the raw material in
our midst, and Stanton will number Is, 600 in
habitants in less than five years.
