V. r. r. IN AUaUsrA.--A trip along the
line of this work from tlle lower end of Rock
bridge to Staunton satisfied rs that we had
been under a very mistaken idea as to the ex-
tent Of operations going on along this part OF
the line. We We're gMtified to see that the
work has been puahea forward far beyond our
most sanguine expectations. Instead OF the
contractors only having been at work at IL few
places here and there between Stannton and
the Rockbridge line, we found that operations
OH that portion Of it, were almost continuous
from one end to tie other. You do not get
cut of sight OF the embankments, and cuts
and fills, anywhere on this line. 1t was really
surprising to see what a great amount OF first
rate work had boon done within the past II
months.
Ii is no exaggeraton to say that half the gra-
ding has beer completed and tlrlt in the very
best vie OF workmanship. Mr. Mason-that
old wheel-liorse of railroad work, and who gen
orally knows what he is talking about OH rail
road k''-says that in twelve months more
MS whole contract could be completed if the
company would allow him to go on at the same
rate of progress made the previous year,
and we are satisfied he could do so. His con-
tract extends from q few miles this side of
Staunton to Fairfield.

making fine progress. Indeed the whole line
Of the railrotu from short distance this side
OF Stannton, at the space of the Valley pike
from il. looks almost like Il completed line of
grading. 1t was an encouraging sight to look
at it stretching far out in the distance in long
string Of red embankmenls and. deep cuts. and
only lacked the curling smoke from the engine
pipe and the attachment OF cars to till out the
picture of the RAILROAD having the appearance
Of being already an accomplished fact.- Gaz

BEEF BEEF Quite eommotion has ex-
isted for several days past in consequence of a
hitch between the City Council and the Butch
ers, about the stalls in the Market House.
Not being perfectly acquainted with the facts
in the case. we: will not attempt to give details,
but the result on Tuesday morning last, was
that none Of the old Butchers were at their US
ual places of vending meats. A new candl-
date for public favors in this line, offered, how-
ever, and Mr.. j. A. Noon, soon disposed OF the
supply he had succeeded in offering. Oh very
short notice. Of course chickens, bacon hams
and other substitutes for meats generally at
the Market House, have been In de mand. We
cannot say, at this writing, whether the con-
f1ict will be speedily adjusted, b 1t we suppose
some enterprising gentlemen will avail them
selves of the present opportunity to pitch in
and carry away the benefits, Which an'ill wind
always blows to somebody.

The fandango is strictly Spanish
national dance, and is said to have been
introduced into Spain by the gypsy
tribes, but all thoughts Of its origin have
long been banished from Spanish minds;
they have adopted and developed it
until it has become an institution,
without which no festival, whether
religious or civil, would be considered
complete. In doors and out of doors
in palaces and gardens'of the wealthy
or before the squalid houses of the poor
in the lanes and alleys all over Spain,
north and south, the fandango -four
ishes, and is danced to the music Of
the violin, the tambourine and the
cymbals. The eve Of saints
day, during Christmas week and
All Souls Day, it is especially in
vogue, and all passers-by are expected
10 deposit some contribution on such oc.
easions, 10 be devoted especially to
masses for the souls in purgatory. The
most beautiful girls are reared for this
purpose, and their services, nay more,
the girls themselves, are disposed of by
auction, the money thus raised being APP
piled TO mass purposes. These auctions
are scenes of spirited contests, and not
unirequently result in rapier thrusts and
mortal combais between the bidders.
The vouptuous movements Of this dance
are OF a highly sensual character, quite
in accordance with the dispositions Of
the Spanish people.

II Card.

ITO Rev. ChivingtOn: Sir-As you have taken
/ the privilege Of using my name in public, l
suppose it gives mt the right to answer you In
the same manner. In the first place, the cir
cum stance which you related in the pulpit, in
which you used my name, is utterly devoid of
truth. Doubtless IL WIS related to you by some
person who attended that meeting, and was in
that lamcntable condition in which one does not
really know what either they or the audience are
doing or saying, and, therefore, did not know
whether they spoke the truth or not. l was not
''lrigh:e ned neither did ''scream,'' rs you
assert. \ lady, whom l esteem very highly,
asked me the question, ''DO you believe in eN-
pcrimeutal religion?'' My answer was plainly
given in the affirmative, with n little advice not
to weary herself. 1t gave me pain to see her eN-
erting herself 40 much unnecessarily, in n heated
and unvcntilatcd room. | should think that a
minister OF your reputed ability might find u bet
ter way for exposing what he considers false
doctrine. - than that of repeating the words Of an
excited multitude; and l think that ii you will be
Industrious enough to examine u few books on
sermons of the Christian brotherhood YOU will
understand their views n little better. Further,
l think the Rev. gentleman, whom I address,
should have more pOlitenrss than to mention u
lady's name in public. You are certainly awarr
thai It Is considered u piece of nd-ness almost
unheard of in the Nineteenth Century, to make
use of any ones name in public without permits
sion. Hereafter, in relating incidents in the
pulpit, please omit the name Of
MISS SALLIE HUFFMAN.

From High Prairie.

March -, lisa.
Mr.. EDITOR-I improve 4 few mo-
ments this morning in penning you a
few items from this remote and almost
unknown corner of old Andrew, called
High Prairie. And right here let me
inform you and the balance of mankind
that our prairie ranks high in quality,
as well as in elevation; and we still have
good stock range. Onr brother farmers
who desire to have their stock herded
the present season, could make satisflc-
tory arrangements for the same IN this
neighbOrhood.
We expect to be sowing spring wheat
this week. Fall wheat looks very well,
still, in this vicinity, corn is the great
staple.
\ union protracted meeting has been
in progress for the past two weeks.
The utmost harmony has prevailed. The
interest has been very great; and, al
though the house was generally crowd
ed, good order was preserved by all.
About thirty conversions are reported.
We have a stirring Grange ut this
place working tremendously for mutual
improvement.
The subject of 4 cooperative store
is being agItated, with some prospect of
success. Members of this Grange (No.
946) have subscribed about $500 toward
establishing the same.
The funeral sermon of Mrs. Gibson is
to be preached at the Presbyterian
Chapel to-day. | understand she died
very suddenly; she having retired in
usual health on Sunday night, but WAS
found a corpse Monday morning.
We heartily endorse the ..strictures'
on Bro. Browns letter in your issue of
last week, and are highly pleased with
the appearance of our county paper.
