Teachers are all back and in their places, and
from the beginning they have made, they mean
that we shall work. | not only believe, but

his mind made up to work, he will find Oak

disposition to afford all the instruction possible,
characterizes each member of it, and l will
challenge any other School of the same grade
for the advancement of its pupils. Every ef-
fort is put forth for this purpose. If the stu
dent does not advance, it is his own fault not

there is order and discipline, l would say to

SUPPORTING THE SOUTH !.


n.y. Apart from all political differences,
such as are now agitating the Country, the
South should support her own schools and COL
leges, her own manufactures her own mechan-
les, and above ALL her own medicinal prepara-
tons when skillfully concocted, and for the rea-
son that Southern physicians, chemists and phar-
maceutists understand the diseases of the South
ern climate far better than scientific men of q
different latitude possibly can and should there
fore be the better prepared to prescribe reme-
dies. More than quarter of a century ago, a
Physician of marked distinction in Virginia,
discovered, after great labor, and unfailing rem
edy for DYSPEPSIA, DIARRHGA, and 9TH
or diseases of the stomach and bowels and after
testing its efficacy in hundreds of cases, with the
most complete success, determined to give it to
the world under the name of BAKERS PRE-
MUM BITTERS. At his death the recipe
passed into the hands of the present proprietor
and for the past thirty years, despite the efforts
of quacks to supersede it, for truth is as in1pos-
sible to be soiled by any outward touch as tue
sunbeam, it has been steadily working its way
into public favor, restoring the careworn and
emaciated Dyspeptic to health and vigor, reju-
venating the premature old from indigestion,
strengthening the weak and enfeebled, and dis
polling from hundreds Of families the use of
those poisonous minerals, which, at one time
were administered with deadly effect for every
malady. North or South, East or West, these
Bitters have no equal as a tonic, are entirely
harmless to all ages and sexes, and will prove
beneficial in every condition of life.

A FATAL AccIDENT.-It becomes our painful
duty to announce that, on Saturday evening last,
on her return from Staunton to her home near
Hebron church, Mrs. Susan Long, the widowed
daughter of Mr.. Alex. FL. McComb, was thrown
from the buggy, in which she was accompanied
by Mr.. VIM. kirkpatrick, and instantly killed.
Her neck was broken and the skull in the rear of
her head was fractured, supposed to have been
done by the kick of the horse. She was buried
at Hebron church on Sunday at Al o'clock P. M.
Mr.. kirkpatrick was also seriously injured, but
it is supposed not fatally.
As we'll as we have been enabled 10 learn, this
sad accident occurred as follows:
1t is supposed that trace became loose which
caused the horse to run and kick-being thus
unmanageable, he pulled the buggy on bank
which upset it. 1t is supposed that Mrs. Long
fell at the heels of the horse, and that he kicked
her on the back of the head thus breaking her
neck and fracturing her skull
