HERE AND THERE.-The Virginia Eu-
terprise referring to the daily telegraphic
reports of the fatal march of cholera,
smallpox, yellow fever, and all other
dreaded forms of pestilence, at season
when the local climatic conditions appear
usually inviting to disease, says they are
not unlikely to have tendency to pro-
duce in timid persons nervous appre-
hension which is the surest predisposi-
ton to malady. The Enterprise also
says that if the population of any city on
the continent should find itself guaran-
teed comparative immunity from pes
thence it is that of Virginia. An elevated
location, pure mountain air, excellent
water, good drainage and nearly all
the other advantages calculated to repel
contagious, are among its estimable pos
sessions, while no squalid or overcrowd-
ed sections constitute birthplace or
nursery for disease. In Phoebe also
there is an elevated location, pure noun
tain air and good water, but unfortunate
ly there is no attempt at drainage, but
huge piles of filth and garbage which
invite the coming of disease. Instead of
our people becoming apprehensive of a
visitation of cholera or other disase, they
bid defiance to all epidemics and utterly
ignore the laws of hygiene. Thels is yet
time to correct the evils complained of
and avert the advent of an epidemic in
Phoebe. But there must be concerted
action or the danger is imminent.
BRILLIANT WEDDING. Under the proper
heading will be found notice of the
union in marriage of L. s. Scott and Miss
Susan A. Adair. The nuptials were cele-
brated at the residence of U. p. Sher-
wood. brother-in-law of the bride. Hon.
M. Fuller, District Judge, officiated, and
made the twain one. 1t was highly
festive occasion. wine and edibles having
been supplied in boundless quantities
and endless variety by the host and
hostess, Mr.. and Mrs. Sherwood. A few
special friends Of the parties were pres
ent, and all had a most enjoyable time.
In the Zenith of their matrimonial felic-
ity they remembered the printers of the
RECORD Office, who received bounteous
supply of cake and wine. To our worthy
friend Mr.. Scott we tender our hearty
congratulations upon this auspicioua
event.
New USE FOR THE NARRow-aAUGE.-
The other day man in Phoebe hired a
horse and went out for a ride. When he
got to Dry Valley he inquired the road
to Bullionville, and it was pointed out
to him. When he came to the railroad
track, he seems to have concluded that
it was public convenience and should
not be monopolized by the railroad COM
pany. He took the narrow-eauge and
compelled the horse to walk on ties for
several miles, to the great injury of the
horse s pedal extremities. The equine
nimity Of the noble animal was not in
creased, nor was the temper OF the
horses owner wholly unruftied when he
learned what had been done. Forum
ately there was no trestlework on that
portion of the road appropriated by the
hero of this item; but he stayed with the
road until he reached part where it had
not been filled in under the track.
Nor So.-The story Of marriage
between two Celestials Of Chinatown on
Sunday came to our ears yesterday, and
in company with an obliging peace
officer we repaired to the house Of Sam
Sing, the head center of the Chinese
population. We were referred to
"Charley," On intelligent Chinaman,
who speaks English very well, but
neither knew anything Of marriage in
Chinatown; 20 We gave up the chase.
