contains much of interest In this connection
We may correct error made by one Of the writer's
on this subject in which 1t stated that the first
seeds trees were brought by Manini. The first
algaroba tree grown here raised from seeds
brought by the early Catholic Missionaries, from
Chile or Lower California, about fory-fve years

we rarely see ANYTHING in the Dispatch
from Culpcpcr since your valued correspond
cnt .|NLlor" has been travelling IN othir
sections and although We are very con-
tented and prosperous people, and proud Of
our growing and active Htllc city, and feel
very independent of newspaper pulls, &c.,
vet we do not wish to be entirely forgotten
by the Dispatch. TO avert so dire cllall-
tv want Just to tell you that in the wreck
Of banks and the crash of Wall street we arc
as calm and quiet as if nothing had happened,
"pursuing the even tenor Of our way" pr
course. there is some Stagnaton in trade,
owing to the difficulty in sending OIL and
selling our country produce, but with enter
priSing merchants and well and literally
managed bank we have succeeded so far in
wcathcring the storm. Our bank has been
of great service to the community, having
continued its usual business without embar-
raS>ment and without having to resort to
certified checks or loan certificates, paying
all checks in currency.
The second annual fair of the Piedmont
Agricultural Society, which begins on the
18th of this month, is looked forward to with
great interest by the people of this and all
the counties around, and promises to be a
greater success even than the one held last
wear. The fair grounds are in excellent order,
| with increased accommodations and many
improvements. Ample provision has been
MADE for comfortable transportation from the
town to the fair grounds, and to and from
all points along the line of the Washington
| CITY. Virginia Midland, and Great Southern
railroad. We hope to see many Of our Rich
| mond people present.
Last Sunday we had Rev. DR.. Curry, OF
| your city, to preach for us morning and eve
ming in the Baptist church. His sermons
| were exceedingly able and eloquent, and
listened to by unusually large and attentive
congregations.
Bishop Wilmer, of Louisiana, preached Ill
| the Episcopal church to equally large con-
| urcrations. His style is singularly chaste
| and elegant, rarely to be surpassed. lie is
| man of very fine talents indeed. Hc and
| his family have been spending the summer
at their residence, in this city. His son
| (.]o>cph Millinery has recently purchased the
Valuable farm of Charles L. Moncurc, in this
county, at $4,000. The Episcopal church
is without Il rector just now, Rev. e. w.
Pttcrkin, their late rector, having accepted Il
call to Baltimore.
There is no excitement in the political
world here since the late SHINING Of your
| lively little Popham by General Field at our
| last court. One can almost imagine as he
visits the scene of the disaster that the scent
of the sufferer hangs round it still.
