Items In relation TO The Judge
ship which appeared in last
weeks jackson STANDARD. First,
Judge Plyley is in better
health than he has been since
our first acquaintance with
him, now four years past, and
he has held court continuously
during the past six weeks in
Pike and Vinton.
1t is complained that at the
last term of the Jackson coun'
ty court Judge Plyley did not
arrive until Wednesday when
he should have been there on
Monday. We haye only to say
that he was engaged during
those two days in the VintOn
court in probably the most i'm.
portant and tho most expensive
case ever tried in this county
the State against Rudolph
Coughenour, VIM. Lee, George
KINNEY and Matthias Mitchell
for burglary, indicted Jointly
and tried separately. We were
present during the trial. The
case was commenced the week
previous, and every effort was
made by the Judge to put it
Though with adj possible dis
patch. The sessions of the
Court began at y o'clock in
the morning and continued
with recess of an hour for
dinner and an hour for supper
until 10 o'clock at night, each
night, the Judge frequently
almost continuously-hurrying
up the attorneys, reminding
them that he should be al
jackson on Monday, and the
attorneys complaining Of being
oyerworked, that they had no
time to consult clients, wit
nesses, etc. Eighty-seven wit
nesseS were present, about half
of them being from Gallia and
Meigs counties. We have seen
that the Judge had made all
possible dispatch in the case,
and we think no sane man
would say that he should send
all those witnesses home with>
out calling the case or that he
should have broken off in the
middle Of the trial. AS to the
sersion of the court in Jackson
after Judge Plyley arrived, the
communication ia last weeks
Standard virtually acknowl-
edges that we stated the facts,
and we may here remark that
we were no more compelled TO
60 to Judge Plyley to learn
them, than We were to 80 to a
certain member of The bar in
Jackson TO learn of his move.

Lest the sense of propriety

their pretty writings, but the

ord were not suitors at this
court in any sense of the term.
The other statements made
by the Central Committee are
artful lodges, and we do not
chose to answer them at this

that il is a pity that their nice

The Grand Fancy Masquerade Ball which
was advertised to come off on last Friday night,
has been postponed until Tuesday the 18th
inst. Costumes of every variety and every hue
have arrived, and the young folks are making
the most active and extensive preparations for
an event which promises so much pleasure. =
Parties of ladies and gentlemen from Stanton,
Lexington, Covington and other convenient
points are expected to be present at the ball
There are now five hundred visitors here and
the constant daily accretions indicate a season
of extraordinary brilliancy and life The Ball
Room, which, by the bye, is one of the most
capacious and splendid in the State is thronged
every night and presents always magnificent
display of youth, beauty, wealth and fashion,
There are quite number OF beautiful and in
teresting young ladies here from Baltimore,
Philadelphia, Richmond, Savannah, Mobile,
Galveston, and other cities of the Union, and
the consequence is, the young men are sadly
affic ed with constant palpitations of the heart
Your correspondent does not claim to be ex-
empt, and he too has passed more than one
unquiet night discussing in bis dreams several
pairs of devishly bewitching black eyes.
There are persons who came here two months
ago pale, thin and cadaverous, and from all ap-
pearances In the last stages of disease, who are
now entirely restored to health and enter with
zeal and spirit into all the festivities aof the
place. Some of these cases have come under
my own personal notice. Such are the won
derfu effects of the pure mountain air and
mineral waters of these regions.

A Wonderful EscaDe.

A correspondent writing to us from Green
bank, Pocahontas county, W. Va, usder date
of July 3lst, informs US that few weeks ago,
a daughter of Mr.. --, who lives on Elk
Mountain, in Pocahontas county, whilst In a
meadow about quarter of mile from the
house, came upon monster In the shape of
snake. When discovered, the snake was bel
lowing like an OK, and was of such terrible d.
mansions that the. gal at once became fright
ened and took to her scrapers, and we imagine
at no mean speed, ran for the house The
snake pursued until she came to the fence at
the house. The girl represents the snake to
have been about the size of stove-pipe, of
enormous length and head as large as tea
kettle! Mr.. -- went in pursuit, but
could find nothing but the trail in the grass,
which looked like log Of wood had been
drawn along.

TEMPERANCE PICNIC.-On last Saturday, the
Friends of Temperance of this County held a
picnic at Thinking Spring Church, under the
auspices of the different Councils of the County.
1t was numerously attended from all parts of the
County. The two Councils from this place were
well represented. The crowd began to assemble
at the grove by O'Clock, and by II o'clock it
was estimated there were eight hundred or one
thousand persons on the ground.
At about II o'clock it was announced that
speaking would commence and the crowd began
to assemble in the Church. until it was filed to
its utmost capacity-not more than one-half be-
ing able to gain admittance
Mr.. H. II. Peck then introduced Rev Mr.
Beard of Waynesboro' Council, who addressed
the audience IN forcible and elegant speech on
the subject of Temperance.
After the close of Rev. Mr. Boards speech
dinner was announced, which was more than
SUFFICIENT for the large crowd in attendance

the advancement of the Temperance Cause.
