sag~ S. V. r. R.-Maior James w.
Morris, Chief Engineer of the Shenan-
doah Valley Railroad, in the following
letter to the editors of the Charlestown
Free Press, announces the cause of the
temporary suspension Of work upon the
important enterprise =
Gentlemen You ale at liberty to
state through your columns, that the
suspension OF work on the Shenandoah
Valley Railroad by the Central I'm
provement Company, has been caused
entirely 10y the financial panic. 1t was
considered advisable by the officers OF
the G. |. Company, to stop the work
during the continuance of the present
unsettled state of the money market and
this action has been approved by the
officers of the Shenandoah Valley Rail
road. 1t is the intention of the Central
Improvement Company, to settle with
the contractors in full up to the time OF
the suspension of the work. We con-
slider this merely temporary suspen-
sion and intend to resume work and
push it vigorously as soon as the state
of the money market will Justify it. 1t
is believed that the Contracting Compa-
nv will have no difficulty in completing
the whole line within the time limited
by their contracts with the Shenandoah
Valley Railroad Company.

BzB" CUMBERLAND VALLEY RAILROAD.
We took occasion to take passage up
Oh the Cumberland Valley Railroad, for
Hagerstown, at Martinsburg, last week.
Although this road has but recently
been in running order, passenger feels
as if he was riding upon one Of the best
constructed roads in the country. The
track is smooth and substantially built.
The bridge crossing the Potomac at
Powell's Bend also seems substantially
constructed with excellent masonry
work. There are six piers and seven
spans, with heavy abutmcnts upon each
side of the river, and the entire bridge
covered with tin roofing, and about 600
feet in length. The construction Of this
road will be quite an acquisition to both
Martinsburg and IIagerstown, as well
as other points, in a business point OF
view. The distance between Martins
burg and Hagerstown, we believe, is
nineteen miles. The road passes through
a fertile and thrifty country.

BE- MARROW EsCAPE.-Mr. Elmar
Rentch, Of Shepherdstown, says the
Martinsburg Statesman, now in the en-
ploy of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad,
was thrown from the tender attached to
engine 2l5, just beyond Paw-paw sta
ton on last Tuesday morning, and re-
ceived very severe fracture of the
right hand, besides being otherwise
considerably bruised. The accident
was caused by the breaking of the coup
ling between the tender and engine.
DIR. Eliason, of this city, rendered the
necessary surgical aid. This is the
fourth time within the last few months
that Mr.. r. has had narrow escape
from death on the road.

yeg" HAGERsTowN.-We spent sever
al days in Hagerstown last week dur
ing the Fair, but it occurred to us that
Hagerstown had too many irons in the
fire at once, and unayoidably one OF
them must burn. A Democratic and
Conservative County Convention was
held to nominate candidates Oil Tues
day, and on Wednesday Republican
County Convention was held, while dur
ing all this time the Agricultural Fair
was going on. 1t was evidently too
much for Hagerstown at one time, and
by so doing the Fair was somewhat
neglected, we think. The exhibitions
were very good, but the articles and
stock were few, and the races exceed
ngly deficient. There seems to be
lethargy or want of interest on the part
of the farmers of that county, in raising
celebrated stock for exhibition, as well
as all products of the county. The at
tendance was also small.

attending the great Masonic Celebration
and took occasion to visit his former
home once more. Mr.. II. resides at
Greenwood Furnace, Huntingdon coun-
ty, Pa, and is connected with the large
and extensive Iron and Steel Manufac-
tory of that place. Although his beard
is somewhat whitened by the frosts OF
MANY winters he was looking exceed

,ype of an old Virginia gentleman, and
his numerous friends and acquaintance
were glad to greet him once more Long

man. His reports of the Fair to the

Ray MEDALS FOR SCHooLs.-The
practice of giving models as rewards for
conduct and scholarship at schools is
commended by many experienced teach
ers. but when the burthen of giving
falls entirely upon the proprietor and
teachers, it becomes question of IL
nance with them aud can not be carried
out so conveniently. 1t has occurred
to us that if some of our good citizens,
who are fully able to do so,'would offer
medals for the best scholarship in GER
tain branches named, to the pupils OF
Shepherd College, it would have ten
dency to invite the pupils to more dill
gence in their studies. Suppose, for
example, medals were offered as follows:
Mr.. A., for the highest average in
conduct and scholarship. MIR. B., for
the highest average in Mathematics.
Mr. g., for the highest average in Rhet-
ORIG and Composition, including Gram
mar. Mr. d., for the highest average
in Ancient Languages. Mr.. E., for the
highest average in Orthography and
Reading. And so on through all the
branches studied. These would cost
each individual but trife and yet as
an aggregate they would cost good
deal. We hope our citizens will think
over this matter and see if they cannot
agree upon some plan that will create
deeper interest in the progress Of the
pupils in Shepherd College and stir up
a generous rivalry among them for eN-
cellencc in each department of study.

BE- CATTLE DIsEAsE.-Mr. Chalmers
Byers, near this place, informs us that
he sustained the loss by death of two
valuable COWS, by the disease known as
mad itch, few days ago. He attrib-
utes the disease to the turning in of his
cattle with his hogs in a corn field, and
the cattle eating the food left by the
hogs after chewing the substance from
it. A hard substance Of corn stalks was
found after an examination in the stom
achs of the cattle If this should be the
case farmers should not turn hogs and
cattle together into their corn fields.

Spirit that fatal accident occurred to
James Gunnell Hurst, promising young
man, aged about 81 years, and the last
surviving son of the late Capt. James
Hurst, of this County, on Sunday even
inc last. Young Hurst, it seems, in
company with several young friends
was on the road to Middleway or neigh
borhood. on horseback, and whilst trav-
cling at rapid gate alongthe cross-road
which intersects the Smithfield turnpike
above Cameron's Depot, and when at
point near the Aldridge farm, occupied
by Mr.. James Eagan, he attempted to
draw his horse aside from a tree near
the road, when the animal SHE'D to the
opposite side, throwing him against the
tree with such force as to fracture his
jaw-bone and thigh, and probably rup-
tured some artery Of the brain, causing
his death in about an hour and a halt.
He was taken to the residence Of Mr..
Eagen, and DR.. c. r. Richardson, OF
Charlestown, and other physicians were
Immediately sent for, but nothing could
be done for his relief. He had been
student of the Virginia Military lnsti-

returned home few weeks ago, III all
the prime of his young manhood. His
remains were conveyed to the home Of
his mother Monday morning, and inter
